Re: Gay couple claim they were ejected from pub for kissing

Damien, I think you need to slow down a bit. Stop trying so hard to get offended on behalf of other people. You are making a pretty huge assumption that the landlord was 'suppressing' anyone.

This is not going to go any further unless the couple concerned think they can prove, on the balance of probabilities, that the landlord kicked them out for doing something gay.

It won't ... the Equality Act allows individuals to take court action if they feel discriminated against, but it's not a criminal offence that would be pursued by the police and CPS.
