Without wanting to spoil everyone's party, I consider it unlikely that they'll withdraw from the UK. While I'm not an expert on the ~~restaurant~~ fast food shitflinger business, I'd guess that this was a pilot, which they'll evaluate, and then the next launch will be of quite a few shops dotted all over the UK. It's apparently a chain with 2,400 places in the US, so I can't imagine they'll give up a chance of a piece of the UK chicken corpse market so easily.

It is a pilot, but if it's clear that they'll be picketed and boycotted by a lively alphabet community, they may leave it to the heathens of Morley's. And the UK's corpse-lovers do prefer a place which opens on Sundays.

Yes, but once there are multiple outlets, they'll be quite hard to 'picket'. It's easy when there's one point of focus. I predict that the protesters would soon no longer have the resources/move on to other worthy causes.
