Grandad.Malky Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Still sounds like a none event to me how many chip shops or other takeaways do you see with vents that go right up to the roof level to extract fumes, I am sure it will me resolved and I am sure the results wont make it in to a national newspaper.

frank ryan Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 A cafe in Stockport has been told to remove the extract fan because a local has complained that the smell of cooking bacon is offencive to muslims.The funny thing is ,it wasn't a muslim that brought the complaint, but some meddling do-gooder who's motives are unclear.This is just the kind of pc clap trap that causes friction between folk,and puts peoples livlihood at stake. Who gets upset about frying bacon anyhow,it just makes me hungry! told by who, using which powers ? another piece of crap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mafya Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 If i had an extracter vent 12 inches from my front door i would complain aswell, even if it was releasing a smell that i like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nagel Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Reading between the lines of the story the complainant is using his "Muslim friends" argument as an excuse to get the exhaust flue moved. Why doesn't he just complain from his own viewpoint rather than the half-arsed made up story he uses? I wouldn't like it if my front door was 12" from the exhaust flue of a greasy fry-up cafe and I might complain to the council, but I would never use an excuse like that.

Ms Macbeth Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 told by who, using which powers ? another piece of crap 'And councillors at Liberal Democrat run Stockport Council in Greater Manchester ruled the 'odours given off from the vent were unacceptable for neighbouring residents.'
