A princess is AWOL, the government refuses to admit defeat, and now pastry shop Greggs can't handle card payments. How many more national crises can the great British public handle before the streets burn?
Fr. Late. Gregg: Government shutdown for GOP is like 'playing Russian roulette with all chambers full'
The hungover masses on routine trips to pick up a sausage roll and/or other beige colored 'food' were stopped in their tracks this morning to find branches of the bakery chain either closed or only accepting cash payments.
A statement from the pastie pusher said simply that it is "currently experiencing issues accepting payments in our stores" and is "working to resolve this as soon as possible."
This, as you might imagine, did not go down well with the mainstream clientele. A witness on the ground said: "Greggs this morning cash only! Sitting here with my coffee watching almost everyone have to go out."
