QuoteThe pig was missing from the Early Learning Centre's HappyLand Goosefeather Farm, which costs about £25, when a mother bought it as a present for her daughter's first birthday, the Sun newspaper reported.

The set did contain a model of a cow, sheep, chicken, horse and dog but no pig, the newspaper said, despite there being a sty and a button which generated an "oink".

Removed the pigs, can you believe it?  They're the best ones.
Duplo me and my daughters duplo self used to regularly ride pigs around the house, (their names were Beechwood and Wauchope).
When mounted on a pig, and armed with a shovel we could easily repel lions and leopards.
Good to see UK mums aren't standing for this assault on farm set inclusiveness.

Anyone want to start a pool on which sort of believer -- Muslim or Jew -- did it?

My money's on the Muslim.

No you underestimate the insidious nature of their plan.
They are happy to see the gentile grow fat on the fat of the swine.
While they remain lean and agile waiting for their chance.
