The gay Labour group were refused to enter the Greencoat Boy pub in Westminster, central London over their sexuality. The group were very outraged by the incident and the pub’s owner Punch Taverns apologized for the refusal of his duty manager. There is an investigation launched and the police is involved by this matter. According to group members the refusal is totally unacceptable in this day and age. Punch Taverns has emphasized that the matter was isolated and is not representative of their commitment to diversity. He welcomes everyone to his pub and is saddened that the gay labour group had not experienced this. The incident became the most viewed trend on social networking site Twitter.
I would like to know why the duty manager refused the group. It was very stupid of him to do that and damage the image of the pub. I hope for the pub’s owner that his pub will not be boycotted because of the incident! I can understand that the gay labour group was outraged and the incident ruined their evening. With social networking like Twitter it is clear that the whole world can be informed in a short time.
