'Take your vomit-inducing accent back to Brummyland' note being investigated as hate crime by Welsh police

A hand-written note urging people from Birmingham to take their 'vomit-inducing' accent 'back to Brummyland' is being treated as a hate crime by police.

The 'offensive' letter was stuck to a house on Iorwerth Avenue, in Aberystwyth, Wales shortly after 7pm on Monday (January 8).

It claims "low-life s**ts" from the West Midlands had ruined the ''once pleasant' area and told them to "go back to "Brummyland". The note also called the Birmingham accent "vomit-inducing" and urged the occupants to "take a few thousand" other people back with them.

Dyfed-Powys Police said it had caused "distress to the occupants" of the property and the force has launched an appeal to track down those responsible. A police spokesperson said: "We are investigating a hate incident in Iorweth Avenue, Aberystwyth.

"An offensive note was left outside a property that has caused distress to the occupants. The note was left just after 7pm on the evening of January 8th. Officers would like to speak with the individual who left the note. If you have any information, CCTV or doorbell camera footage that could help enquiries, please get in touch."

The note, written in red ink, reads in full: "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 in tinker sites preferably back where you came 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 other yaw yaws with you."
