It comes after an increase pressure from Muslim groups such as The Muslim Council of Britain, and The Islamic Shariah Courts of Britain who have expressed concern that large supermarkets such as Asda do not reflect the 21st century Multi-cultural values and customs of British Society. Mohammed Kahn who is the deputy secretary of Food Standard & Chaplaincy for The Muslim Council of Britain has said “I think that everyone can agree that high street names such as Asda are obliged to take into consideration the needs of the communities in which they operate in. In areas of Birmingham and London where there is a large Muslim demography, their priorities must come first. I don’t think anyone can contest that!”

作出此决定的原因缘于英国伊斯兰协会和伊斯兰沙里亚法庭的不断施压，而英国人担心，这样的大型超市Asda不能反映二十一世纪英国社会的多元文化价值观和习俗。穆罕默德·卡恩，英国穆斯林“食品标准理事会”的副会长宣称：“我认为每个人应该同意此要求，如ASDA超市，它有义务考虑到其经营的社区是在伯明翰和伦敦，而那里是一个庞大的穆斯林人口占多数的地区，所以，它（穆斯林）的优先级一定是第一位的。我不认为任何人都可以提出异议！“

Last year statistics show there had been a high increase in complaints filed against big supermarket chains for failing to properly mention the use of animal or alcoholic ingredients that are used in many food and medicinal products. Another rising issue is the displaying of alcohol during the holy month of Ramadan and the displaying of Halal meat next to pork which has upset many people who have a Muslim background. All this has led Asda to consider changing its store policies in various areas of the country to meet the needs of the community.

去年的统计数据显示了民众对大型连锁超市未能妥善标明那些在许多食品和医药产品中使用的动物组织（应该是指猪肉）或含酒精成分的投诉，出现了较高的增长。另一个显著上升的问题是，超市在斋月期间公然卖酒及猪肉制品，让许多有穆斯林背景的民众感到不适。这一切都导致了ASDA超市考虑其在全国各个地区改变其销售政策，以满足整个社会的需求。

It has also been noted that alcoholic provisions should be lowered in areas with high violent crime areas, following a court ruling last month. Some supermarket chains will only be allowed to serve 2 cans of larger per customer on Friday and Saturday evenings in Liverpool and Manchester. This has sparked outrage across the country, with opposition groups calling this “the rise of British prohibition”. The hashtag #BritishProhibition was trending on twitter when the news was revealed.

也有人指出，含酒精制品应在高暴力犯罪率地区的区域限售，在上个月法院裁决：在利物浦和曼彻斯特的每周五和周六晚上，一些连锁超市将只被允许每个客户购买2罐含酒精制品。（汗，这不是要了英国足球流氓的命吗？！ ）这在全国范围内激起了民愤，反对派团体声称这个法令“阻止了英国的崛起”。hashtag #BritishProhibition是热门新闻，这是在推特上透露的。

Asda Public Relations Spokesman Andrew Smith issued a statement saying, “We totally understand the issues that are being raised, and will choose to take the right measures in order to continue serving the community and meeting to their standards.”

ASDA公共关系发言人安德鲁·史密斯发表声明说，“我们完全理解这些正在提出的问题，而会选择采取正确的措施，继续服务社区，以达到他们的标准。”

From the morning following 31st March 2015, 13 Asda stores in England will stop selling alcoholic drinks and other products that contains alcohol such as deodorants and cough sweets. The selling of pork meat and products that contain pork will also be removed.

自2015年3月31日之后,13个英国ASDA超市将停止销售酒精饮料和其他犯禁商品，其中包含了酒精除臭剂和咳嗽药水和含酒精糖果等（酒心巧克力？）。猪肉销售和含有猪肉的一切商品也将被删除。

Muslim groups and community leaders from across the country support this move. Labour MP Mahmood Islam for Birmingham has posted on this Twitter: “I’m happy that Britain is becoming more and more multicultural, this is a chance for everyone to celebrate the melting pot of diversity. Well done Asda for recognizing this.”

来自全国各地的穆斯林团体和社区领导人强烈支持这一举动。在伯明翰的工党议员 马哈茂德.伊斯兰 已经张贴了微博：“我很高兴英国变得越来越多元化，这对每个人来说都是一个机会，来庆祝这个多样性的大熔炉。做得好ASDA终于认识到了这一点。“
