Where do you stand on the schools in the Midlands that want to educate young children on equality, including matters relating to same sex relationships. This is in accordance with the education services throughout England.
However, as we have all read there are a large number of parents in predominantly Muslim areas who refuse this education to continue.
I would be very interested on your (and others) thoughts.
Thanks in advance
I said that its wrong to refuse to sell something to someone based on their sexuality, not that they can't choose to sell certain things. They can sell whatever they want, but its wrong to refuse to sell their stock based on sexuality.
Refusing to stock a particular individual's music due to their political beliefs and refusing to sell cake to someone because they're gay are not the same thing, it isn't a valid comparison. You can choose your political beliefs, you can't choose your sexuality.

Well said. Even Croesy Blue couldn't have topped it for political correctness.
Homosexuals are born with an extra chromosome, pink in colour, and simply cannot resist indulging in a spot of arse banditry. It's also very, very wrong to criticise or discriminate against those who practice various religions for they too were born with their faith and, just like homosexuals, have no choice but to follow their natural proclivities. I daresay shoplifting sprogs are regularly dropped along with home burgling ones because there's an awful lot of them around nowadays. Which begs the question: is it fair to criminalise their actions? Punishing them with fines or imprisonment for failing to suppress their innate predisposition seems awfully unfair.

Life is about differing views and agendas that's what makes human life tick. It doesn't make it right or wrong.
I bet they would throw milkshakes around as well
What other looney lefty shops are there? Name a few

Can't say I've ever shopped in that shithole, and doubt I ever will.
They've done this for the publicity and they know it. The album will still sell in its droves

As far as cover albums goes it's pretty unique. The Guardian gave it 1 star out of 5. How is that fair on the people who buy the Guardian and expect imartial reviews? It's not a 5 star album but certainly not 1 star.

There was no "gay iconography". It was just a cake for a gay couple. Also, being gay is not a political standpoint. Assuming you're not gay, did you choose to be heterosexual?

Got decent coverage on BBC radio 2.
Made it their album of the week this week in fact.

Yep, to have a tolerant society, you must be intolerant to intolerance.

Not though is he?
He’s regularly talked about in the media and on here in fact.
Still has a fanatical fan base as well.

I would imagine there won’t be milk shakes sold at his concerts from now on.

This is a slightly different case seeing as you can't choose to be gay or straight, whereas Morrissey can choose to support far-right candidates
A lot of people may disagree with that statement. some see young gays now as just "doing the Gay thing" because it's fashionable

When did you choose your sexuality then?

Yes there was, they wanted 'support gay marriage" on it which was the whole basis of the objection, not that they would not sell to a gay couple.
Is Spillers still selling Michael Jackson records?

Shithole? WTf? How do you know it’s a shithole if you’ve never shopped there? If you did you’ll find you’d get a much better customer experience than any chain shop.

I trust this is tongue in cheek, otherwise you're bang out of order.

Re: so Spillers bans Morrissey
Some interesting comments on the Breitbart article.
Liberals used to say they'll defend with their lives the freedom for you to say what you will. Now they say they will fight you if you don't shut up when they disagree with you.
Liberals used to say the likes of Abu Hamza and Anjem Choudary must have the freedom of speech!!!
Also...
Liberal politics. Today's liberals have become yesterday's fascists.. not exactly progress.
Also...
When a record shop tells me what I can or cannot buy, because of THEIR politics, it is time for me to find a new record shop.
Also...
PC gone crazy in Europe. Better wake up before it's too late. Banning free speech is communist and Hitler-esque.
Once you lose freedom, all else is lost. Pray for them for they know not what they do.
Just a few comments there...
I'd be interested in people's thoughts.
