Bruce,
This latest outburst about the right to breast feed in public occurred after Claridges requested the mother to drape a ‘modesty cloth’ over her shoulder and child. Now, I can’t afford (or would want to fork out for) a pot of tea in Claridges, nor would I expect many people on my level of income to either.
FYI, Claridges Festive Afternoon tea Menu, priced at £75 per person……
As for this fuss over Farage – once again his words are twisted by the media – his use of the word “corner” has been leapt on to suggest they should be forced to sit a corner, facing the wall, with pointy hat bearing a big “B” (for Breastfeeding), rather than what I suspect he meant, which was in a part of the restaurant which offered some ‘privacy’ to the mother.
I do wonder if this is another case of the deliberate targeted militancy by groups with agendas….
Claridges does request that “To respect the privacy of all our guests, we kindly ask that you refrain from flash or intrusive photography” yet this woman gets photos taken of her “humiliation” and posts it onto Twitter? What about the people sitting in the background of the photos whose privacy has been disregarded?
So humiliating in fact, she wanted to share it with the Twittersphere!……
