Imagine having to holiday amongst Irish travellers!!
Holidaying at Pontins would be bad enough.

I think it's perfectly reasonable for a business to decide on whether or not it deals with individuals, specifically those who are likely to stir up trouble or cause criminal damage.

For the sake of the wellbeing of their employees and customers, I applaud Pontins for their unwillingness to open themselves up to a bunch of selfish, lawless inbreds.

I get the impression they are only apologising because they have to.

Looks like they will all be closed down within a couple of years then.

It's obviously legally wrong to discriminate in such a crude way by using names.

However, Baroness Kishwer Falkner probably isn't going to be dealing with, what I imagine in this case, are the stereotypical traveler types.
