The Lounge in Swansea (Wales that is, boyo) has caused "outrage" by marketing an absinthe cocktail called....wait for it...a "Suicide Bomber" The "shocking" promotional material uses a suicide vest. This has apparently caused offence to some racial watchdog.

The marketing also says "'You'd rather take a jab n' the ovaries or balls"

"Baden Evans who cheated death in the 2005 Bali suicide bombings, said: "The bar owners are trying to create a name for themselves"

Which they have just done courtesy of the press using comments made by Mr Evans.
