‘Why can’t you show tolerance to a fast food chain?’

24 October 2019

Following a campaign from the LGBT lobby, the first branch of American fast food chain Chick-fil-A has been told that their six month lease will not be renewed.

Founded on Christian values, the business routinely faces protests because of its support for Christian causes. Speaking to LBC, the Christian Legal Centre’s Michael Phillips says this amounts to totalitarian behaviour, where only one view is allowed and enforced. Benjamin Cohen, founder of LGBT site Pink News, also spoke to Nick Ferrari, calling Chick-fil-A’s views “very unusual” and not worthy of tolerance. Listen to the full interview.
