Following the recent case in which a straight Christian couple were fined because they refused to rent a room in their bed-and-breakfast to a gay couple, the United Kingdom government now will investigate whether gay hotels and guesthouses have violated the same ban on discrimination based on sexual orientation in public accommodations.
Although there have been no complaints against any gay venue, the Equality and Human Rights Commission said gay-only lodgings would be subject to similar legal action if they were found to be violating the law.
