Anyone can set up a facebook group. For any reason. Some people are out to cause trouble. Some people lie. Facebook makes no attempt to check that the points raised by it's groups are true. Please bear all that in mind when deciding whether to believe something you read on facebook.

Anyone stopped from entering a pub with an england shirt on should make their feelings known, in whatever fashion they seem appropriate.
As long as that fashion is legal.

This pandering to the minority in this country is getting too much.
If they are that offended by what people wear tough!
Except there is no ban, so they aren't pandering to anyone..

I made the same case when the Met used the Licensing Act’s Form 696 to stop black and Asian music live events across London.

Anyway, the point is that the story is bogus. There was no ban on wearing these tops whatsoever.

And yet it’s now become an urban myth travelling across Facebook at frightening speed.
All of which just goes to disprove Douglas Adams. There is one thing that travels faster than Bad News in this Universe. False Bad News.
