Mk daviesA public house is private property only in a limited sense. Private, relates only to the status of ownership, and nothing else. It's primarily a venue for trade and it's rated accordingly. Would you extend the same right to private shops, factories, warehouses and land? You are not forced to work in a shop, factory or on land, but we are required to seek employment, if we are in need of income. If the ownership status alone, allows exemption from legislation, by what criteria could it ever to imposed? With due respects, I do not feel that you are arguing on firm ground.
