There was an earlier thread about which businesses give discount for military personnel. Perhaps it's time for a sticky to list all businesses which allow discounts and a list of those who discriminate against, such as the one above.
It was also reported on Radio 4 (in which interview I understand his mother said his friend had died).
I feel ashamed that ANY business can turn away people serving our Country, and wonder where the PC brigade are now?? Perhaps if he said he was Welsh, we'd then see all the full force of discrimination descend upon this hotel chain and any other businesses turning away service personnel.
Still, it's "Tommy this, and Tommy that" can't see the MoD wanting to stand up and get the politicos to do something....
Sorry, Tomos, don't know what this Country is coming to when things like this happen without any comeback.....
