A man has been arrested for expressing his affinity for the traditional English breakfast that includes bacon.
Perhaps it’s a good thing he didn’t mention sausage.
The scenario developed in Cumbria, England, where townsfolk were objecting to yet another Islamic mosque being erected adjacent to their small town.
Cumbria police have increased their patrols and are monitoring online comments so they can investigate potential thought crimes that could develop during the towns’ objections.
They’ve also been on hand at the construction site to makes sure no one offends Muslims by saying “bacon.”
Viral footage confirms a man saying, “We love bacon” and being cuffed and arrested.
He asks why he’s being arrested and an officer confirms it’s because he mentioned bacon, which under the nation’s Public Order Act of 1986 apparently could be considered “threatening or abusive words or behavior.”
That law, in fact, claims that using words that someone else doesn’t like can cause “distress” and is therefore illegal.
Muslims are building a Mosque in Dalton, on the edge of the Lake District. On the 16th Aug a man at a protest said “we want bacon.”

A report at the Blaze confirms, “A stated affinity for pork — like silent Christian prayer — is now an arrestable offense in the land of St. George.”
“The State Department admonished the U.K. this week against continuing its clampdown on free speech and persecution of Christians, once again blasting the penalties handed out to those Britons who dare to engage in silent prayer near abortion facilities. It turns out that British pork lovers may similarly be in need of such advocacy,” the report said.
The report noted bacon is forbidden by the Quran, “but essential to a full English breakfast.”
It explained to accommodate the exploding Muslim population in the U.K., a huge number of mosques have been or are being built.
“This expansion has made its way to the town of Dalton-in-Furness in the English county of Cumbria, which is set to get its first mosque,” the report said.
Some people among the 8,000 in town object to the huge project adjacent.
The leader of Independence Party, Nick Tenconi, said, “The takeover of the U.K. continues. … Enough with the inclusivity BS. That argument has been utterly lost by the woke left and proponents of the Islamist caliphate in Britain. People simply aren’t buying it any more and are rightly outraged. There is absolutely no need to put a mosque here, and the sole reason is to artificially flood the area with Muslims…”
“British journalist Isabel Oakeshott noted that bacon is a fundamental part of the full English breakfast, stressing that ‘it is part of our culinary culture — which is why there should be nothing remotely controversial about saying so,’” the report noted.
