FRIED chicken lovers have been calling the POLICE due to the 'KFC crisis', leaving upto 600 stores with no chicken.
The crisis comes due to a delivery error, leaving stores all across Britain without key ingredients and more importantly, chicken.
Tower Hamlets MP said on Twitter: "Please do not contact us about the KFC Crisis.
Please do not contact us about the #KFCCrisis – it is not a police matter if your favourite eatery is not serving the menu that you desire.

"It is not a police matter if your favourite eatery is not serving the menu that you desire."
They later added: "Good evening Tower Hamlets ERTB are on night duty again tonight!"
"Last night was busy despite the inclement weather so I think is safe to say it's more of the same tonight!
