GB News: 'Don't like it, don't go!' Ex-MP defends local pub being sued by terrorist for 'offensive' name
Former Conservative MP Steve Baker defended the landlord of The Saracen’s Head Inn in Amersham against a lawsuit from convicted terrorist Khalid Baqa, who claims the pub's name is "racist." Baker noted that none of his Muslim constituents had previously raised concerns about the name during his 14 years in office.
Baker criticized the legal basis of the lawsuit, calling it a "complete joke," and attributed the issue to the Conservative Party's failure to address similar legal matters in the past. He argued that the Equalities Act has led to positive discrimination and emphasized the need for balance in protecting vulnerable individuals. If Baqa wins, he plans to target 30 other pubs with the same name.
