Police are investigating a “hate incident” in which a note was left on a house in Wales telling English people with "vomit inducing accents" to leave the seaside town.

The offensive note, left outside a property in west Wales describes the occupants as, "low-life” who “should be forced to live in fenced tinker sites” before telling them to leave the country. Police are appealing for witnesses after the hate note was found at the property on Iorwerth Avenue in Aberystwyth on Monday, January 8. The force released the text of the note, which it said caused distress to the people at the house.

It reads: “Iorwerth Ave. was once a quiet, pleasant residential area until a load of s*** from the Midlands hit it. Low-life like you should be forced to live in fenced tinker sites preferably back where you come from. Why don't you take your clapped out, crappy boats, Jeeps, cars and your hideous, vomit inducing accents back to Brummyland and please take a few thousand yaw yaws with you."
