    She said the hotel's policy was not to allow unmarried couples of either sex to share a double or a twin room, however, they failed to explain the hotel's policy...

    Okay, so they are prudes rather than specifically homophobic. What they're doing then is still illegal, but slightly less repellent.

    “All right,” said the Cat; and this time it vanished quite slowly, beginning with the end of the tail, and ending with the grin, which remained some time after the rest of it had gone.

    It is not illegal to require that couples should be married....

    They lost their case, anyway. It was in the news a wee while back.

    BBC News - Christian hoteliers appeal against ban on gay couple

    But it seems that the Gay Gestapo aren't all that innocent. Turns out they got wind of this couple's policy, then set them up by having these two men make a booking where they deliberately did not indicate their sexual orientation. Then when the two gay men are turned away - hey presto, you're sued! Cue fake moral outrage from the Gestapo and the rest of the establishment falling over themselves to be seen as PC.

    Surely the Gay Gestapo have better things to do than bullying an elderly couple like this.

    I hope the tossers responsibe are proud of themselves, I really do. Why go out of your way to force your lifestyle down the throats of people who obviously don't want it. The elderly owners don't stand in gay clubs preaching the gospel do they? We are ALL allowed our OWN beliefs not just the crusaders

    I'm struggling at how to put what I'm feeling into words about these gay "heros." Actions like this only harm relations between the different factions of socity. Time for them to stop the crusade and get on with their lives in peace - what we all want!

    Agree Mousey. That is quite weak imo.
