No. It's not their home, it's a business. You chose to open it to the public, and you should be subject to the same laws as all other businesses.

From my experience the party is not racist, or homophobic. The party are selecting minority candidates in safe seats, not just long-shot seats. After Tory leader reveals his list of ethnic candidates, Cameron's Rainbow 1st Eleven | Mail Online

Of course there will always be some people who don't change with the party. There are people in all parties who get found out to be racists, homophobes and hold many other disgusting views. With the coming election there is much media scrutiny on the Conservatives and it's no surprise that Labour ministers like Chris Bryant jump on the chance to portray the party as not at all changed, all a bunch of homophobes. They couldn't be further from the truth.
So you'd support the right for people to refuse accommodation at their B & B's, if they didn't happen to like the colour of someone's skin?

Just the same principle, and just as ignorant.
