Google BANS café owner's advert for traditional faggots after deeming post 'inappropriate and offensive content'

Faggots are just a type of rissole in Britain

A woman advertising faggots at her café called Fanny's says Google removed the post - because it was deemed 'offensive'.

Jo Evans-Pring, 63, was promoting her award-winning funky retro music diner 'Fanny's Rest Stop Café' in Newport, Wales. Within just a few weeks, the mum-of-four, found that her business sales were soaring once again.

But one day after Ms Evans-Pring posted a picture of faggots with peas and onion gravy on her website, she got an email from Google stating the advert had been removed.

In the email, Google cited their content policy explaining not to post anything that could be construed as 'inappropriate and offensive content'.

Ms Evans-Pring said that she was 'absolutely startled by what's happened' and claims 'the world's gone totally mad if people are getting worked up over that'.

She claimed: 'People need to spend their time dealing with real problems, not things like whether or not the word 'faggots' when selling that meal is hateful.

'Fanny's has been doing really well because of the Internet campaign. We've noticed a big change in the past couple of weeks.  'People have been coming from a little further afield because we're paying for adverts when they google for places to eat.  'They've loved coming to Fanny's because it's fun and retro.

'I posted an advert on the website for Fanny's faggots with peas and onion gravy, a pretty traditional meal and one of my favourites, on the 27th.

Faggots is a traditional dish, long popular in the English Midlands and South and Mid Wales, made from minced off-cuts and offal.

But the word 'faggot' was misconstrued by Google administrators to refer to the pejorative term of abuse referring to gay men.
