An American fast food chain met with protests from the gay community last time it opened in the UK is planning to have another go.
Chick-Fil-A aims to open five restaurants in the UK.

The sites have not yet been chosen, but the first will open in early 2025.
The firm is still run by the Cathy family which founded it, but has made a policy change in recent years.
It appointed its first head of diversity in 2020 and has changed its approach to charitable giving, focusing on education and hunger alleviation.
However, the family’s Christian values mean restaurants do not open on Sundays, a policy that will also apply in the UK.
“From our earliest days, we’ve worked to positively influence the places we call home and this will be the same for our stores in the UK,” said Joanna Symonds, Chick-Fil-A’s head of UK operations.
“We encourage our operators to partner with organisations which support and positively impact their local communities, delivering great food and wider benefits to those around them,” she added.
