As reported yesterday, Muslim women have been on the streets in an adapted version of the burka in an attempt to integrate with middle aged gutbucket blokes from bastions of western civilisation such as Stoke on Trent.

The new all in one black outfit, topped with a full faced crash helmet was designed to resemble religious icon The Stig. Muslim leaders had hoped this would lead to more harmonious relationships with devotees of the Prophet Jeremiah and his tiny acolyte The Hamza.

First reactions, however, have been extremely negative with Grahame Smith of Doncaster commenting “I’m not racist but black Stig? White Stig was much better than black Stig.’ Petrolhead Bob Piston from Coventry added.

“They’re living in prehistoric times, I mean, black Stig was ages before the enlightenment when white Stig arrived and even that was ages before the New Testament of The Grand Tour.”

A confused man in Bury Wetherspoons who asked not to be named, because he couldn’t remember it, said “It could be anyone under there. It was Michael Schumacher once.”

When pressed he admitted that was now unlikely. Many experts believe that the supposed target audience are basically as shit-scared of contact with an actual woman in a Stig outfit as anyone in a burqa.

“Most of them would shoot their load all over their rally-decaled 1.6 Seat Leons before she even got her helmet off” said sexologist Bryman Cocks.
