"Surely it wouldn't be legal to deny admittance to someone because they lead the Brexit campaign " They didnt deny him the owner served him the 1st time as staff didnt want to, after talking to him he went back again and the staff did serve him. | |||

"Surely it wouldn't be legal to deny admittance to someone because they lead the Brexit campaign " It would be illegal to deny him service just because of his political persuasion. | |||

"Surely it wouldn't be legal to deny admittance to someone because they lead the Brexit campaign It would be illegal to deny him service just because of his political persuasion. Is it? " I don't know the answer, however... A recent Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT) case, GMB v Henderson, has confirmed that the Equality Act 2010 (EqA) affords protection from discrimination relating to philosophical/political beliefs. I would assume this also could be the case outside of the workplace being that the Equality Act 2010 is cited | |||

You can laugh all you like but being that The Herald said it (they also own The National, SNP's biggest supporter) I'm gonna hazard a guess that they know what they're talking about. | |||

Can you prove it isn't a hate crime? I've already provided a newspapers view aswell as a recent tribunal's outcome. Or is it just gonna continue to be your usual playground tactics? | |||

Hate crime? ![]() ![]() The facts are that staff refused to serve him and he could have chosen to prosecute but chose not to make it a problem. Are you disputing the precedent set? You are aware the precedents are used in law aren't you? | |||

The restaurant staff who refused might have just thought he was a cunt , is being a cunt a protected characteristic? | |||

I see you want to agree that a precedent has been set but refuse to admit it. Maybe the judge got the law wrong. He/She clearly doesn't know as much as you do. | |||

To me it shows sensible debate is more persuasive than getting mad and insulting people. I hear as others have mentioned he returned to the restaurant to chat to them answering their questions and concerns in a calm collective manner. The next day returned to dine without any problems.I don't know how the law stands on such situations but I would not like to see people refused service due to their political beliefs | |||

"Reports are that the serving staff were unhappy with him being there but he wasnt refused service. He then returned on a pre-arranged visit to talk and debate with the serving staff. Robust views were exchanged and there was no animosity when he and his family returned the next day for dinner. " Well, for all his many faults, at least he's prepared to engage with people who question his views. Boris just steals your phone or hides in a fridge. | |||
