[UK] National Trust Staff Told to Wear Gay Pride Badge or Stay Out of Sight
The Catholic Herald (UK) ^ | 8/4/17 | Staff Reporter

Staff at Felbrigg Hall refused to wear the badge in protest at a film that 'outs' the estate's last owner

The National Trust has told workers at a historic house they are barred from meeting and greeting visitors if they are not wearing a rainbow badge or lanyard symbolising gay rights.

Mike Holmes, 72, is one of ten volunteers at Felbrigg Hall facing relegation to back-office tasks for refusing to wear the badges.

“There’s a group of about ten of us that have volunteered for more than ten years, and we have now been told that if we don’t toe the line, we can’t do our jobs,” Mr Holmes said.

The rainbow badges and lanyards are part of the National Trust’s ‘Prejudice and Pride’ campaign celebrating same-sex attracted people through history.

However, Mr Holmes said, the workers’ objections were not homophobic, but in protest at a new short film ‘The Unfinished Portrait’.

The film, released by the National Trust, “outs” Robert Wyndham Ketton-Cremer, the landowner and historian who bequeathed Felbrigg Hall to the charity in 1969.

“Wyndham would have turned in his grave to know what’s happening,” Mr Holmes said. “He was an intensely private man.”

Rainbows are not used to symbolize “Gay rights”, they are used to symbolize homofacist political activism. There is a big difference.

And it isn’t just “gay” these days, it is anything that isn’t heterosexual (aka breeder aka “normals”).

Right, just keep wearing those rainbow badges as the Muzzies take over. You’ll be easy to spot for execution.

Are these people issuing orders not afraid of a muslim putting a sword up their posterior? Talk about believing in two opposite things and thinking they are sane.

So, if you are not gay and proud or a front line supporter of that lifestyle, then you are a second class citizen.
Wrong, wrong, so very wrong.
So unamerican!

And they rely on money from membership to visit their sites. Don’t have a NT card will cost you more to visit the historical sites.

Oh, yes. This story is from England. Unfortunately, I can see this happening here soon if not already happening.

The proper response no matter where you live or work is to laugh in the face of the Gaystapo’s minions and tell the to go to Hell.

You tell them, “NO.”
If they let you go, consider yourself lucky you don’t have to deal with that perversion pushing against your will.
