The day the far right had their chips – but no chicken 
After no-mark neonazi ‘Tommy Robinson’ attempted to bully a chicken restaurant for refusing him service, DR LOUISE RAW headed up to Wing Kingz in Milton Keynes with an anti-fascist friend for a bite to eat…
Wing Kings

HITLER had his Battle of Berlin, Mosley his Cable Street — yet who could have predicted that the moment of reckoning for would-be British far-right leader Stephen Yaxley-Lennon (“Tommy Robinson”) would come courtesy of a Milton Keynes chicken restaurant? 

Wing Kingz had only been open a matter of weeks when Yaxley-Lennon decided to visit with his children on October 30 — apparently overcoming his usual aversion to anything halal, as the meat at Wing Kingz is. 

The restaurant was, in a sense, a victim of its own success. The quality of its food and the coolness of its US sports-bar-but-gourmet concept had created such a buzz, word had spread to the Yaxley-Lennon household that this was the place to be.
