But if you refuse service to unmarried couples (not simply sharing a room) regardless of sexuality then it should be OK since you are not discriminating. This is the stance of the owners I believe. Trouble is that it's been deemed discriminatory for some reason. If this is the first couple refused service there is no precedent. If part of the reason is also this couple claim that they can't be married so have no opportunity to comply then that's not the fault or failing of the owners either.

It really does seem to be a PC battle with this couple being used to make a point.
