A MUIR of Ord fish and chip shop proprietor has had her membership of a trade organisation revoked after social media posts made in "extremely bad taste" following the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
As earlier reported, police were called to the village on Thursday evening after an angry crowd gathered in response to posts made by Jaki Pickett of Seaforth Road based Jaki Fish and Chip Shop.
The National Federation of Fish Fryers (NFFF) stated: "The NFFF has been made aware of social media posts made by one of our members that are in extremely bad taste and completely against all of the values our organisation and industry hold dear.
"We have discussed this as a board and have taken the decision to revoke the membership of this business owner and we will be writing to them and asking them to remove all association of the NFFF from her business, social media and websites."
The NFFF exists to protect the interests of the fish and chip industry.
Ms Pickett could not be contacted for comment.
