A bus driver has been suspended after refusing to drive a vehicle which celebrated gay pride.
Passenger Rebecca Sears, 19, claimed a Konectbus driver at Norwich Bus Station insisted on swapping buses as the one he was in 'promoted homosexuality'.
She said that the driver, who appeared to be in his 50s with grey hair, was referring to the vehicle's service number which featured the colours of the gay-pride rainbow flag.
Rebecca said: 'He said we have to wait a minute, he said I am not driving this bus because it promotes homosexuality.
'I was standing with two other women and we kind of thought he was joking, in a weird way. Like we were just thinking is it really that big of a deal.
'I thought it was all just quite bad, it made us 10 minutes late - which isn't bad when its more a legit reason but for that sort of reason it is.'
Rebecca went to the bus station's front desk to report what had happened as the driver moved to another double-decker vehicle and allowed passengers to board.
She added: 'I said to them that he had gone to swap buses and that it is ridiculous because that is just a ridiculous reason.
'You are stopping people from getting home for such a ridiculous reason. It is really bad.'
Go East Anglia, which runs the Konectbus service, said the driver involved has been suspended and that a full investigation was under way.
She added: 'I just hope that he hasn't said that in front of somebody that is gay.
'I would hate to think he would say something to them.
'He didn't know if I was gay or the other two women I was with. He just out right said it.'

Yes, but it's the pinnacle of Leftist democRat thinking these days.
Need more guys with balls like him...
Mega Bus is a line that runs to some major cities. Along the East Coast, they spent a few thousand virtue signal dollars on a “pride” bus.
If I were to be waiting for a bus and that monstrosity rolled up, I wouldn’t be boarding
The world would be so much more peaceful if people would just mind their own darn business.
Bus behind this one has the colored numbers also.
Sounds like he may be looking for a job.
How dare a commoner think for themselves.
That is his right. But he took the job. Actions have consequences. So firing was the companies right.
Homofascists demand you bow on your knees before their great power.
She has to push her views onto others like the homosexuals do, and if you agree then they use the NAZI tactics of branding you a name.
There was a time they said they wanted to live in private and be left alone,a nd even some on here went along with that crap
How do you know when he started there? He might have started years ago before all this homo crap got pushed onto us.
Spray paint on that bus blight would have solved the problem.
And if he had put a piece of duct tape across it you would have screamed bloody murder.
Good one. Powerful image.
At this point I would have put her on a cattle car then Painted Swastikas and We love Adolf on the side before they drove away
I agree with your comments.
I’ve been more tolerant of the homosexual lifestyle, taking them at their word.
Sadly, we all know how it has played out. Today they’ve gone after our kids and seek to turn the whole nation into Sodom.
Wish we could get he powers that be to see what’s going on in our schools for what it is, classic sexual abuse of children down to the age of 5 years old.
The UN propagates this stuff.
It’s a real mess.
Agreed
Thanks...
