The People Of Leicester Suffered A Horrific Fate Last Night When Its Nando's Ran Out Of Chicken

    "Hell is empty and all the devils are here" – The Tempest, Act 1, Scene 2.

    This is the Leicester Branch of Nando's. And last night something terrible happened there.

    This is what it should have sold.

    But according to ITV News, last night, it didn't.

    @NandosUK So... There are no chickens at your Leicester restaurant. Talk to me about that...??!!!!

    Really.

    @NandosUK I'm still coming to terms with what happen. One colleague is inconsolable. It was the restaurant onGranby Street

    According to ITV, the situation has been resolved.

    @NewsDeclan Sorry to hear about this Declan, we've picked it up with the restaurant.

    A lot of people on the Internet are being cynical about the importance of this breaking news story.

    STOP THE PRESS!!! News ALERT !"@ITVCentral: Anger as Nando's runs out of chicken in Leicester http://t.co/m1vbxABIxg "

    I demand public enquiry RT @TomMcArthur: BREAKING: Nando's Leicester is out of chicken. This is how it starts, people http://t.co/x30u9hObYI

    This is actual news @josieallchin: Worst nightmare. Customers 'inconsolable' as Leicester Nando's runs out of chicken http://t.co/gz5kppuGRL

    And they're wrong.

    This might be the thin end of the wedge.

    Last year a chicken wing shortage in America prompted this vital Fox News report and a debate as to whether McDonald's or renewable fuel regulatory mandates were to blame.

    It would be scaremongering to suggest that this story might be the start of a national crisis that could ultimately affect everyone in Britain, INCLUDING the Prime Minister himself.

    But we shouldn't discount this possibility.

    BuzzFeed has reached out to Nando's for further comment.
