tinfoilhat Posted July 29, 2018 Author Share Posted July 29, 2018 Yeah, and I bet that someone like Penistone using that excuse wouldn't at all be obvious about it and would give no reason for suspicion at all! But can you imagine the trip advisor reviews of penistone towers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ez8004 Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 I'm with the baker and guest house owner on this one, a business should be allowed to serve or not serve anyone without giving a reason just like a pub landlord can. It's a good thing the law thinks you and your ilke are wrong then isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obelix Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Correct. Totally agree ---------- Post added 23-07-2018 at 22:16 ---------- They are full and have no vacancies . Simple. Until they get found out they are not full. Then they have problems... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choogling Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 It's a good thing the law thinks you and your ilke are wrong then isn't it? "The law is of course an ass" said a very clever person some years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclone Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 The law says that nobody should murder you, is it still an ass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choogling Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 The law says that nobody should murder you, is it still an ass? not the same as a business declining to accept to enter into a contract to provide a service . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Cid Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Can you imagine Tommy Robinson going for a job interview, but he wouldn't get the job because he is a pillock, not because of his sexuality or colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclone Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 not the same as a business declining to accept to enter into a contract to provide a service . Both examples of the law, so is the law and ass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RootsBooster Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 not the same as a business declining to accept to enter into a contract to provide a service . So you'd be fine with your favourite Indian/Chinese/Insert other foreign food restaurant, refusing to serve you because you're white? ---------- Post added 06-08-2018 at 10:24 ---------- Political opinions and religion are a matter of choice. Race, nationality, sexuality, colour, sex, gender, hair colour, these are not choices and so discrimination based on them is not allowed. So you can choose not to serve the porn industry, EDL or Christians, you can't choose not serve Women, Irish and Hetro people. Unfortunately religion is one of the protected characteristics also. The upside to this is that it includes lack of belief, so atheism cannot be discriminated against either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclone Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 So you'd be fine with your favourite Indian/Chinese/Insert other foreign food restaurant, refusing to serve you because you're white? It's easy for him to say yes, safe in the knowledge that it won't happen and that he is a member of the dominant group, the group with all the leverage.
