UK: Couple singing Peppa Pig song forced off bus after Muslim complains

Sep 26, 2014 2:21 pm By Robert Spencer

PeppaPig“She went up to the bus driver and told him we were being racist towards her and she wasn’t happy. The driver came up to me and said we had to get off the bus or the police would have to come. He said: ‘just get off the bus – it’s not worth the hassle.'”

This is how Britain is surrendering to Sharia: to fight it just isn’t worth the hassle.

Supine Britannia Update: “Couple singing Peppa Pig tune to toddler ‘forced off bus after complaints they were being racist’ because it goes against Muslim pork ban,” by Jennifer Smith, Daily Mail, September 26, 2014 (thanks to ECAW):

A couple were thrown off a bus and branded racists after singing the Peppa Pig theme tune to their autistic daughter, it has been claimed.

Nick Barnfield and Sarah Cleaves were travelling with their daughter Heidi on a bus from Sheffield to Doncaster when the 15-month-old started crying.

The couple, who live in Rotherham, started singing the song in an effort to cheer their daughter up, but say they were branded racists by another passenger and told to get off the bus by its driver.

The couple claimed the woman, who they saw was wearing a hijab, took offence to the snorting sounds in the song and believed they were a reference to how pork is forbidden in Islam though this has not been confirmed.

She complained to the bus’s driver, who, it is claimed, then told the couple it would be ‘easier’ for them to get off two miles from their home.

‘We were really embarrassed, ashamed and upset and we hadn’t done anything wrong, just trying to make our little girl happy, but people were looking at us as if we had done something wrong.

‘It was humiliating,’ said Mr Branfield.

The 24-year-old said they were trying to settle their daughter on the X78 bus on September 8 when they were approached ‘aggressively’ by the woman.

‘A lady came up to us and quite aggressively started telling us we were irresponsible parents and that we were being racist singing the song.’

‘She went up to the bus driver and told him we were being racist towards her and she wasn’t happy. The driver came up to me and said we had to get off the bus or the police would have to come.

‘He said: ‘just get off the bus – it’s not worth the hassle’. I was really shocked because we had done nothing wrong but he didn’t listen to us.

‘He just said: “Go now, otherwise you’ll hold up all the passengers and no-one will be happy.”‘

‘I was more upset at the bus driver not taking in both sides – he just heard the word racism and kicked us off.

‘I’m annoyed he didn’t listen to our side of the story or ask any questions.’

A spokesman for First confirmed the couple did get off the bus following a conversation with a female Asian passenger and the bus driver, but claimed the bus driver had no knowledge of allegations of racism.

‘CCTV confirms that Mr Branfield had left the bus as he described and it does clearly show a conversation between the driver, a female Asian customer and the customer Mr Branfield who has logged the complaint with us.

‘In terms of what was said we are investigating it and we’re in discussions with Mr Branfield.

‘We’re looking at the circumstances in which he left the vehicle – I don’t want to speculate about his concerns that he was asked to leave but we want to be clear from both sides what happened.

‘The driver told us he heard no reference to racism but we are investigating the incident and have not yet drawn a conclusion.’

South Yorkshire Police said it was not investigating the incident.

    Peppa Pig is an *adorable* kids show! …I’ve watched it with my g’kids 🙂

    And here’s the Peppa Pig theme song that was probably being sung on the bus …enjoy!

      How did this alien know it was the Peppa Pig song? Does she watch it on TV – probably about her level of intellect – Is she going to accuse the TV company of broadcasting ‘waycist’ propaganda? This sort of supremacist bullying is what ISIL is all about. Forget the idea of ‘moderate’ muslims – there is no such animal. Britain has capitulated in the face of a tsunami of evil, invading, medieval, barbaric aliens and their hateful warmongering cult. It is time to proscribe islam in all western countries before civilisation is destroyed by these rabid monsters

      Sep 27, 2014 at 6:51 am

      No, I don’t think this is just a case of ‘silly muslims’ and I don’t see the funny side of it at all. It’s an absolutely outrageous offence against an English family doing what is perfectly reasonable and legal in THEIR OWN COUNTRY and shows the nasty paranoid arrogance of the muslim community, who are quite clearly throwing their weight around and getting above themselves. The woman concerned should have been forcefully put in her place, NOT placated!!!

    The UK common people are being slowly strangled by the Political Correctness imposed by their governing elite and as a result are fearful of being branded as racist if they stand up for British values and common sense.

    The Muslim community in Britain are emboldened by this state of affairs and are moving swiftly to place the mark of Islam on every street,every neighbourhood , every metropolis in that once “green and pleasant land”

    Where are. Boadicea,s descendants ?

      In Britain there’s no confusion; “Asian” means Pakistani. They’re just as confused over some American terms, too.

      The term “biscuits and gravy”, for example, would likely leave a Brit confused and slightly ill.

      • gravenimage says

        Sep 26, 2014 at 9:28 pm

          Sep 27, 2014 at 4:16 am

          There are more Asian Christians than there are christian Brits who they have treacherously abandoned the faith of their puritan fathers. The Brits will be the last ones to stand up or care for Judeo Christian values. Secularists and humanistic values are their new mantra for living, no matter if they are from the left or right wing. Could it not be the rise of militant Islam is Divine judgement for their abandoning of the Christian faith in favour of anti biblical secular values and lifestyle. The only time they stepped into church was when taken there as a baby for baptism, then maybe for their wedding and finally maybe for the last rites.

          Sorry, I don’t quite undetstand…..’Asian’, but why ‘obviously not Muslim’? ‘Obviously’? Really? We don’t know that. How the hell are we supposed to know? Perhaps YOU had better explain. And by the way, the British Isles are in northern Europe. ‘Britons’ essentially are of north European heritage. NOT ‘Asian’. Whatever that is supposed to be (American or English definition?) Just logic.

          Sep 27, 2014 at 2:21 pm

          In Britian, “Asian” means South Asian, basically Pakistani, Indian Afghani folks. If a British person is referring to someone who is Tibetan or another Asian ethnicity further east such as the Chinese, Koreans or Japanese, they call them “Oriental.”

        • gravenimage says

          Sep 27, 2014 at 2:39 pm

          J, many Asians are from Japan, or China, or Thailand, or Russia, and have nothing whatsoever to do with Islam.

          I understand why many decent Infidel Asians find the British use of the term to indicate “Muslims” offensive. I’m of British ethnic heritage, and *I* find the obfuscating use of the term offensive.

    I would have said, “Fine. Call the police. I’ll wait. And yes, it IS worth the hassle.”

    And mahometans are not a race, but a religion. Therefore you cannot be racist towards them.

      Based on my reading of events in the UK over several decades, I put the odds at 90% that the parents would have either received no help or been charged with a ‘racially-aggravated’ crime. But for eschewing certitude, make that 100%. Yes, Islam is not a race. Does not matter in the UK.

      You are talking about a country where thousands upon thousands of girls were systematically raped by Muslims and those who tried to do something were the only ones punished. Even now, nobody in government who aided or covered up these horrific crimes has lost a penny or day of work.

        It occurred in the same city: Rotheram. IMHO the Police Commissioner for South Yorkshire and his cronies should be on trial for incompetence and corruption while Muslims in Rotheram should be an unprotected endangered species. Fat chance of either.

      The mom made the right decision. Had I been in her situation with a 15 month old toddler, surrounded by barbaric savages and a Quisling bus driver, I’d have left too. A mother’s first responsibility is to protect her child. God knows what these feral folks would have done to her baby if she made a scene.
      I might just go back later (w/o my baby) and dump pork fat on the bus entrance while pretending to board.

      ”I would have said, “Fine. Call the police. I’ll wait. And yes, it IS worth the hassle.”

      **Exactly**.

      Yes, the behaviour of the hijab cow mohammedan and the bus driver was appalling, but the fact this couple meekly did as they were told **enrages** me. It is this sort of meek acquiescence to oppression and islamic supremacists that enables mohammedans, *and* their pusillanimous non-mohammedan enablers. Query: was the bus driver *himself* a mohammedan, or just a pathetic wanker ?

      Not only would I have stayed on the bus, I would have **demanded** the police be called, and then I would have insisted they arrested the hijab bitch for ‘hate speech’. And I wouldn’t have given a tuppenny damn if all the other passengers were ‘annoyed’.

        I would have done the same thing. Do not let them win. Wait for the police.
        When I lived in Belgium I was on a bus driven by a crazy Muslim Moroccan. He drove like a wild beast and the people who were standing were being pushed against each other. Nobody complained. When I got to my stop i went in the front and asked the driver if he thought he was driving a truck full of animals . He got really angry and told me not to ever come on his bus again. I told him that not only would I look for his bus but that next time I would call the police. I reported him tho the bus authorities but they probably did nothing because they are all run by Muslims . The taxis tramways and the subway as well . Do not be afraid of them . If you show strength, they will back of. But I carried a big knife in my purse wherever I went in Brussels.It is illegal to have a gun in Belgium.

    Peppa Pig is actually feminist propaganda, so it probably offends Muslims from several angles at once. An empowered mummy pig, an emasculated daddy pig – and pigs acting with the dignity of human beings. How much worse can it get? Personally I get offended when Muslims read the Koran because it is full of racist incitements to violence against Jews and Christians but I keep my mouth shut about it. Wouldn’t want to offend them with our kiddy pig programmes either.

    If the driver didn’t hear a complaint of “racism,” why did he ask them to get off the bus?

    Who in the blazes do these Muslims think they are, telling everybody, everywhere what to do about EVERYTHING? And even regarding something so silly as singing a kid’s show song to their child?

    Why doesn’t anyone, ANYWHERE stand up to them?! These parents should’ve simply stated, “First of all, Islam is not a race, so can you tell me how we are being racist?” And wait for the answer.

    And then they should’ve said, “This is public place. We were just singing to our child and no one else was complaining, so it must not have been very loud. Is there a rule against singing to our child on a public bus? Can you show me that rule?”

    And wait for a response.

    They didn’t need to shout or be rude in any way. Just state the truth calmly, but firmly.

    Jihad is known as the sixth pillar of Islam, and it is not merely an act of spiritual self-improvement. The Koran calls for it to be carried out with personal wealth and sacrifice of life. It is to promote sharia, of course, and that is first done by complaining about minor issues, then, when successful, demanding more changes. As the jihadist becomes successful, he/she gets more and more enthusiastic about the work, and the result is bloody warfare with great passionate shouting. Unless the victim wakes up in time, he merely sits there totally stunned. WAKE UP!

    • Beagle says

      Sep 26, 2014 at 9:19 pm

    i believe all non native cultures that come to the uk should integrate with the community, yes they may not agree with something you have to adapt.
    to complain about this and get someone kicked off the bus is not intergrating with society that is forcing religion first which is not part of uk life.

    “We were really embarrassed, ashamed and upset and we hadn’t done anything wrong, just trying to make our little girl happy, but people were looking at us as if we had done something wrong.”
    ——————————————————————–

    Why feel embarrassed when you know you’ve done nothing wrong? Let people look. If they voiced their opinion strongly, many on the bus would have agreed with them and the unreasonable Muslim person would have looked like the villain. If the other passengers got annoyed at being held up, I would have told them “Do you want this to keep happening in your country? You should be backing me here or this type of thing is just going to keep happening unless someone stands up to it.” I would have refused to get off the bus and would have said I was happy to wait for the police to be called to remove me if necessary.

    I wonder if there’s ever going to be enough of a backlash against some Muslims behaving like this in the West or if we are all going to just sit here and let them run us over now because we’re afraid of a violent response.

    UK: Couple singing Peppa Pig song forced off bus after Muslim complains
    ……………………..

    *Appalling dhimmitude*. A couple with a *disabled toddler* forced off the bus by a dhimmi bus driver carrying water for a supremacist Muslim.

    The child was already upset—and her parents were faced with the appalling choice of whether it would have been more distressing for her to be abandoned two miles from home and having to walk, or in having to wait to be interrogated by the police. *Sickening*.

    I also wonder who the other passengers were—more Mohammedans, or just more dhimmis like the bus driver, who just thought it would be less of a “hassle” if the victims were forced to leave?

    This reminds me of the case—also in the UK—where a blind man was forced off a bus after a Mohammedan complained about his guide dog.

    And what will not wanting to deal with the “hassle” of supremacist Muslims lead?

    I think we know all too well…

    Also—note where the family lives. Does Rotherham sound familiar? It should:

    “UK: 1,400 non-Muslim children exploited by Muslim rape gangs, authorities did nothing “for fear of being thought as racist”

    http://www.jihadwatch.org/2014/08/uk-1400-non-muslim-children-exploited-by-muslim-rape-gangs-authorities-did-nothing-for-fear-of-being-thought-as-racist

    Sep 26, 2014 at 11:31 pm

    I don’t even know what this song sounds like … but:
    Would the driver have thrown the family off the bus if it had been, say, an Orthodox Jew who complained? No. And why? Well, apart from the fact that Jews are more tolerant of what others do, it’s because Moslems have the reputation (although it may not be justified, especially for this bus passenger) of being bomb throwers. Moslems have the advantage – yes, advantage – of a bad reputation in getting their way in democratic countries.

    and the bus drivers have to deal with this garbage daily. all of them..

    jihad against children s’ cartoons. no bottom to the the low levels moslams will sink to. those poor kids would have been bewildered. its such a kids favourite, and this trashbag of a human has probably ruined it for them.

    Once again the ‘infidel’ steps meekly aside so as not to disturb ‘community cohesion’ or upset delicate muslim sensitivities.
    I have a pertinent question, ‘when are we ever going to fight back?’

    Nothing new in Europe. Our co-warriors from Riposte Laique in France once wanted to invite passengers in Paris to andouillettes (pork sausages) and ordinary table wine. The event was labelled “racist”. Guess by whom. It’s ludicrous, that’s Europe the sinking ship.

    That’s the much vaunted success of the ‘multi-kulti’ system for you. If you think it’s a disaster, you haven’t seen anything yet.

    Well folks this story was in the Daily Mail which is not, shall we say, a high quality news medium. I strongly suspect that there is rather more to this story than has been reported.

    In the topsy-turvy world of MULTI-CULTI, truth is not important…an ACCUSATION of ‘racism’ is the only thing required to bring about an arrest.

    The perception of a slight to Islam is all that is required for Muslims to lie about racism. What racism? Islam is not a race.

    Moreover, a song about a little pig is not a slight or blasphemy by any stretch. This is a trivial complaint. The point of it is that Muslims threaten VIOLENCE…and when they do, we ALWAYS give in, rather than charging them with making a false complaint.

    The prohibition is against eating pork, but typically Muslims always looking for ways to be victims, try to extend that to not seeing even cartoons of pigs, not hearing songs and stories about pigs and not seeing other people eating pork or bacon.
    This is taking the eating prohibition to ridiculous lengths

    When I was a little kid and got upset, one of the things my parents used to cheer me up with was:

    This little piggy went to market,
    This little piggy stayed home,
    This little piggy had roast beef,
    This little piggy had none,
    And this little piggy cried “wee-wee-wee!” all the way home.

    There are so many piggy characters in Anglo culture – “Winnie the Pooh’s” Piglet, the Three Little Pigs, This Little Piggy, To Market, to market to buy a fat pig… and lots more.

    So, in order to protect the touchy sensibilities of activist Muslims, the native population has to be careful not to recite these poems to their children in public, contrary to what they have always done, because now irrationally touchy people with irrational beliefs and peculiarities feel offended? You’d think these two parents had thrown off their clothes and engaged in heavy petting, rather than sing a little ditty with some piggy-grunting in it.

    Is it at all possible that the parents of the child are not being honest about what transpired? Might they have pointedly and obviously been singing the song in a way that was deliberately directed at the Muslim woman? I doubt it. But I think it’s a question we ought to ask, just to make sure we aren’t jumping to conclusions. Just because there have been a lot of obnoxious Muslims making impinging demands doesn’t guarantee that each such incident reported is an actual case of overweening Islamism.

    But in cases of true overweening Islamism, Western culture should *never* capitulate.

      ”Is it at all possible that the parents of the child are not being honest about what transpired? Might they have pointedly and obviously been singing the song in a way that was deliberately directed at the Muslim woman?”

      Even if they were, **so bloody what** ?

      They are an *English* couple, sitting on an *English* bus, singing an *English* kid’s song, in *England*. They were *not* breaking any laws !

      Free speech, (or singing) means the right to be offensive, if it means anything at all. I’d have stayed on the bus, and carried on singing.

      ” I doubt it. But I think it’s a question we ought to ask, just to make sure we aren’t jumping to conclusions.”

      And what ‘conclusions’ might *they* be ? If they’d been singing ”Rule Brittania”, or ”God Save the Queen”, or ”Jerusalem”, would you consider that to be potentially offensive to islamic supremacists, like this bitch , and be terrified of ”jumping to conclusions” ? No doubt.

          Normally, I avoid mohammedan businesses like the plague, but the other week I had to take a taxi to the chemist.

          The driver was a full blown mohammedan, with the beard and the outfit. When I came out of the chemist, this bloody wanker was on his prayer rug, **on the pavement**, his arse at the sky.

          I yelled at the top of my voice, what the **hell** do you think you’re doing ? Get off that rag and do the job you’re being bloody well paid to do !” A woman passing by, looked at me, smiled, and said ”absolutely right”.

          He got in the taxi, saying, ”sorry, sorry”. I said being ”sorry” was irrelevant; he was being paid to take customers where they wanted to go, not keep them waiting while he said stupid prayers. I also said I was going to make a complaint to the taxi company’s boss, whereupon this wanker said ”he is muslim, like I am. He will understand”. Then, blow me down flat, he actually tried to charge me *waiting time* !! Which I refused to pay, of course !

          When I got home, I phoned the company, spoke to the boss, and relayed the whole saga. I said if it was indeed ‘company policy’ to allow taxi drivers to say prayers on a public pavement while the customer was shopping, or whatever, and then have the **damned nerve** to try and charge them waiting time, his company would speedily go out of business, as I would not only make sure everyone I knew was told about it, but would also write to the paper and publicise it in every way possible.

          The ‘boss’ was abjectly apologetic, said it was **not** company policy, and the driver would be ‘spoken to’. Not that I believe a word of it – the boss was a stealth jihadist who deplored his fellow mohammedan’s tactics, that’s all.

          So I’ve told all my friends and family, and written to the local paper, although of course they didn’t print my letter.

          Now I’m waiting for the plod to come knocking on my door, accusing me of ‘hate speech’. 🙂 Bring it on !

          Interesting taxi story, Mirren. It reminds me of the Bradford bus driver who decided to delay all his passengers one day some time back in order to indulge in his haemorrhoid therapy on his mat by a bus stop. Apparently, his employers also ‘spoke to him’. The story made the national press.

          They become more and more emboldened, because they think no-one will stand up to them.

          I like ”haemorrhoid therapy” ! 🙂

        Or what if they’d been a Christian couple, and had been singing ( just softly to the child, though audible to other passengers if they – the passengers nearest to hand – tried to hear) a song like “Jesus loves me, this I know” or “Father welcomes all His children/ to his family through His Son”?? I’ve used both of those songs as lullabies when my children were small, as they have gentle rocking rhythms and the words are lovely; I could envisage Christian parents using them to calm a distressed toddler.

    Muslims would turn every nation into another one of their wretched hives, the state this clearly. They start by taking your rights and freedom away because whatever you do is offensive to them. But here they are, thanks to multiculturalism and political correctness, taking your rights away. Our political leaders are so very concerned about offending these people. All the while blithely forcing you to swallow this bitter pill. If you had a cancer in your body would you let it go unchecked and untreated because you were afraid of offending it? Every mosque you see further spreads their ideology. An ideology of complete submission, intolerance of all else and all others, and complete Islamic supremacy.

    Specifically, how is a mosque a threat to the community within which it is built?

    Every single mosque in the world, by definition, is modeled on the mosque of Muhammad in Medina in accordance with the Sunnah. The Sunnah interprets the Qur’an by reporting exhaustively on everything that Muhammad said, did, or consented to. Therefore, his Medina mosque, the first mosque, was a place where he gave judgments, where he decided who would be executed, where he instituted policy—domestic and military— where Jihad war strategies were designed. Consequently, it was a storage place for arms, a military training base, and was where troops were blessed and dispatched. Literally they were sent to conquer – first the whole of Arabia, and then the rest of the known world. Therefore if the present-day mosque is modeled as per the Sunnah of Muhammad then there should be very serious concern. As is well-known, Muslims are required to follow the example (Sunnah) of Muhammad—and according to Sura 33:36 it is not an option or a matter of opinion: “It is not for a believer, man or woman, when Allâh and His Messenger have decreed a matter that they should have any option in their decision. And whoever disobeys Allâh and His Messenger, he has indeed strayed in a plain error.” This explains and establishes beyond doubt why arms have been found in mosques in various countries, and in different capital cities.

    Why was the Muslim woman asked to leave the bus if she did not like the company there? Of course then she would have claimed discrimination
    and most likely have won in court
