Well said Chris Grayling

[clapham_gull]

He voted FOR the legislation that he appears to now disagree with.

Which in itself is a bit odd, because on these issues the Tories have been quite happy to take the 'conservative' view, without fear of being made to vote another way by the leadership.

Probably another example of a politician simply saying something that a receptive audience would agree with, rather than it being something that he actually believes in himself.

When the Press or Labour want to ask the Tories about their views concerning Queer matters why don't they ask Alan Duncan who is openly Queer. Is it because it would stop them from being able to brand The Tories of being anti Queers?

Because he is Shadow Minister for Prisons?

If Alan Duncan was getting it on at the back of your cab with his civil partner, what would you do?

I hate being serious on NSC, but I can only quote what I have read:

thats no problem, its always good to learn about the changes. what was the source for that though? because it seems like a policy position of a new organisation, rather than a legally tested position.

you're undermining an argument I have some sympathy with by being deliberately nasty, there is no need to refer to people as 'queers' , its unclled for.

I'm sure the woofters wouldnt generally degrade tehmselves to a B&B anyway. Far to non lavish

I drive a taxi and have various Gay clients but if they were to indulge in sexual acts in the back of my car I would invite them to leave, in other words kick them out.

You sound like the self-righteous character from Harry Enfield.

"Oi, gays! NO!"

I am wrong to refer to such people as Queer. It is a mistake and so being an honest decent fellow I am sorry.

I like Alan Duncan and I doubt very much that he would start participating in Lude act in my Motor car. If he did he would be out on his ear.

It could have alot,Goldstone. I don't think the 'usual suspects' would be on their soapbox. El Presidente,i agree with you but if this B & B is registered with the local authority as a private family busines,would not customer awareness etc have been discussed ?

Regsitered withn the local authority as a private family business What are you talking about ? They would have to register as a B&B to ensure they uphold certain standards of health and safety but it has no bearing on the ownership status. The council would also not advise on how to run the business except where is touched on H&S and legalities.

Nice to see the usual NSC bigots posting !

You run a B&B you stick to the law - otherwise go and become employed rather than run your own business.

It's breathtaking, and somewhat worrying, how many people here think it's OK to discriminate against a certain section of society.

Allegedly we're all football supporters on here - another section of society discriminated against by politicians, the police and the general public. Look at how SWEAT and LDC / Falmer residents portrayed us - thugs who beat up grannies and urinate in peoples gardens. Not one of us liked THAT discrimination but it's OK to discriminate against homosexuals Hypocrites !!!!!

 

[The Spanish]

conversely I expect that there a quite a few b&bs east of the steine that would be none too pleased with and may turn down a party of football lads turning up, no matter how many incredibly dull statements on the law are put up here.

it amazes me when people quote the law as if it cannot ever be broken and therefore these situations are borderline impossible due to some law no fucker in the street knows anything about.

God, you're a humourless berk, you really are.

You obviously didn't get the reference - unlike subsequent posters.

I don't think it is discriminating against homosexuals by not letting them stay at a B&B if the owner is discusted by what he or she might consider as unnatural acts.May be I'm old fashoned but I will not change my views

For "old fashioned" I guess we need to read "homophobic" based on your posts in this thread.

I'm sorry but that really is the only response to that
