“Lizard Liz is dead”: Viral video of Jaki Fish and Chips’ owner celebrating Queen Elizabeth’s death in Muir of Ord incites mob fury 

Jacki Pickett, the owner of Jaki Fish and Chip Shop, is facing the wrath of the internet after celebrating the death of Queen Elizabeth II. The restaurant owner was seen dancing and spraying champagne as she held an insensitive sign announcing the monarch’s death. Since creating havoc in the locality, law enforcement was forced to close down the shop.

On Thursday, September 8, 2022, Queen Elizabeth II passed away at the age of 96 at Balmoral. Tributes have poured in across the world from members of the public, celebrities, and world leaders. However, Jacki’s behavior following the queen’s demise was shocking, to say the least.

The Jaki Fish and Chips owner posted a video of herself celebrating the death of the Queen. In the now viral clip, Jacki was seen popping a bottle of champagne shortly after the Queen’s passing. She also held up a chalkboard sign that read – “Lizard Liz Dead and London Bridge has fallen.”

Several officers were called to the Muir of Ord chippie in Scotland after a crowd gathered in front of the Jaki Fish and Chips chippie to berate the restaurant owner. Sources claimed that angry Brits pelted her chippie with eggs and condiments after Jacki posted the video online.

The Scotland Police said:

“Shortly after 8.30pm on Thursday, September 8 officers attended at a business in the Seaforth Road area of Muir of Ord following a report of a large crowd gathered in the area. Officers remained at the scene to ensure the safety of all present and the group subsequently dispersed peacefully. No further police action has been required.”

It was alleged that Jacki Pickett drove away from the shop after demonstrations against her chippie erupted. However, the same has not been confirmed. Police officers have also announced that there was “no suggestion that a crime was committed.”
