Police are investigating after a poison pen letter was left at the home of a family in West Wales criticising their Birmingham accents.

The note was left at the property in Iorwerth Avenue, Aberystwyth on the evening of January 8 calling them “low life” and saying they should be “forced to live in fenced in tinker sites”.

The letter says: “Iorwerth Ave was once a quiet, pleasant residential area until a load of s**t from the Midlands hit it.

“Low-life like you should be forced to live in fenced in 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 other yaw yaws (sic) with you.”
