No DUP here! Belfast bookshop in DUP ban
No DUP here! A Belfast bookshop bans all DUP elected representatives from a new cafe they are planning to build due to party's position on same-sex marriage.
A Belfast bookshop has banned all DUP elected representatives from a new cafe they are planning to build. Belfast Books on the York Road has said that DUP elected representatives will not be welcome in the new cafe when it opens due to their stance on same-sex marriage. Stephen spoke to managing director John Junk and DUP MLA Jim Wells.
Also on the programme, should we care what the UDA, UFF and the Red Hand Commando think about the Brexit backstop? Many Loyalist paramilitaries are opposed to Theresa May's Withdrawal Agreement backstop, but in an article for the Belfast Telegraph - commentator Ruth Dudley Edwards says - talking to the spokesmen for paramilitaries - gives them a status they don't deserve. Stephen got the views of Ruth Dudley Edwards, former UKIP NI leader David McNarry and we took your calls.
And, it's a Christmas classic that many will sing along to, but a radio station in Cleveland, Ohio has decided to remove "Baby It's Cold Outside" from its playlist following complaints from listeners. Local media report that listeners said the song was inappropriate and at odds with the #MeToo movement. What you think is the song now inappropriate in the current climate or should it just be seen as a Christmas song? Stephen got the views of commentator Fionola Meredith and Emma Woolf.
