An English prison's only Scottish inmate is demanding to be served haggis – on racial grounds.

Dave Devers claims his rights are being infringed as other minorities at Wolds prison in Yorkshire get their own delicacies. He says there is ‘inadequate provision of food for a Scottish diet’ and also wants porridge and square sausage at meal times.

  • From what i've heard about haggis, I'd imagine the prison food is better.

    To each his own though.

  • Haggis, is what you'd get from an evil genie, when you wish for a delicious burrito.

  • That's weird how if a (just an example, nothing meant by race) Japanese person could get sushi and miso soup all the way from Japan at that prison, but the Scottish guy can't get Scottish food when it's next door...
  • First of all, why do humans always mistake the cultural differences of their ethnicity to be a racial difference? Brits and Scots are different ethnicities of the single Human race, not different races within some illusively segregated human species.

    We human beings need to check that silliness.

  • haggis is just like american sausage, only the method of production is different, that and the fact that people know what that method of production is. I don't really see how this is an issue.

  • Demand? You're in prison! Eat whatever is served.
