The owner of a fish and chip shop in Scotland who celebrated the death of Queen Elizabeth II in an online video that attracted a mob of protesters has had the windows of her business smashed.

Jaki Pickett, who runs Jaki’s Fish and Chip Shop in Muir of Ord, in the Highlands, posted a video of herself on Thursday evening on the shop’s Facebook page with a bottle of champagne, raising a toast to the news of the death of the queen.

She also held up a chalkboard with the words “Lizard Liz is dead” while shouting “London Bridge has fallen.” The video has since been deleted.
