Piglet ban
Express & Star News for the West Midlands & Staffordshire
Novelty pig calendars and toys have been banned by bosses at Dudley Council in case Muslim staff are offended.
Workers in the council's benefits department have been told to remove or cover up all pig products including toys, porcelain, calendars and even a tissue box featuring Winnie the Pooh and Piglet.
Patrick, Primrose and Dolly will be most offended that they are thought to be objectional - who do I complain to?

I'm sure there's a government focus group on pigism if you look hard enough.

That is the height of stupidity! Let the muslims get over it. Pandering to minorities like this is pitiful.
