This is awful. And Why do so many people think Catholics are not Christians. It’s mindblowing
Picked a weird city to own a gaff in then haven’t they
“Fucking hate diversity. Anyway, off to buy a house in the most diverse place in the world”
How does one prove their religion? I was born Christian/CoE but I don’t have any proof.
This sounds like a live-in landlord or existing tenant ad. I believe you’ should be fully entitled to choose who you live with.
> SpareRoom told MyLondon they had asked the advertiser – the original advert – to clarify their listing to avoid future misunderstandings.
There weren’t any misunderstandings.
They’ve asked the poster to stop telling the truth to stop people from understanding exactly what they mean.
“religion as this is not classed as a protected characteristic”
Someone needs to print out the Equalities Act, roll it up tightly, and beat the Spare Room press liaison over the head with it until it really hurts
How devout do they want their tenant to be? A lot of people were baptised or are culturally Christian but only go to church for Christmas, weddings, funerals etc. If they want someone who actually goes to church/worship groups regularly and who believes in the written word of the Bible then they are limiting themselves quite a bit. That said, it is a good warning to others who might not want to live with someone who is deeply devout and who holds views like this.
that’s true, but you probably shouldn’t publish it.
I always laugh when people say landlords provide housing.
Even if this is a live in landlord, it still shows the unreasonable power landlords have to withold and limit shelter. I’m reminded of the landlords who will only house women who are willing to sleep with them. Fucking mental.
But private landlords are cool and good, though. Mine didn’t put up the rent this Month! Praise be!
I was looking for a room in a shared house. A guy that was already living there, told me that he doesn’t accept cooking pork in the house. I love bacon! So after moving in and enjoying two weeks of cooking bacon, pork shoulder, sausages, the guy moved out after painting “Pig” on my door!
Must be willing, like god does, to stand by and do nothing when mothers microwave their babies
It’s actually good that they mentioned that… who’d want such narrow-minded flat mates.
In the UK, the Equality Act 2010 protects individuals from discrimination on the grounds of religion or belief, among other protected characteristics. This means that landlords and advertisers are generally expected to treat all individuals fairly and without discrimination when offering housing opportunities.
Not to be confused with Muslims and Shiites, or Jews and Ashkenazis?
Given this is Stratford, and how militant some of the religious Christians are around there. If you were not christian you wouldn’t want to live with this person
Everyday there seems to be a turf war between 2/3 different groups of preachers in both the bus station and Stratford centre.
