'Wetherspoon staff refused to serve me when I brought my assistance dog into the pub'They were refused service after being unable to provide identification to prove Paisley was an assistance dog, despite this not being a legal requirementView 3 Images Sarah and her assistance dog Paisley (Image: Sarah Holdroyd-Madsen)A woman has been left frustrated after she was refused service at a Wetherspoon pub when staff asked for proof that her dog was an assistance animal. ‌Regarding the incident, a spokesperson for Wetherspoons said: "Wetherspoon’s policy is to only permit guide dogs, and assistance dogs with accredited training by ADUK (Assistance Dogs UK) member organisations, in our pubs. ‌According to Assistance Dogs UK, in the last year 79 percent of people who are partnered with an assistance dog were denied access to a public place. The organisation states that there is an "urgent" need for clearer definitions in law of assistance dogs, alongside consistent standards for training and welfare that all working assistance dogs can aim to meet. "While it may be the case that some individuals misrepresent poorly trained dogs as assistance dogs, disabled people partnered with trained assistance dogs should not bear the consequences of that misuse – misuse which is only possible because of the ambiguity of the law."

“If the global West reverts to its old ways of direct or indirect dominance or outright arrogance, it will lose the battle. The doctrine combines a continuing commitment to universalism, plus a recognition of differences in creating an equal and symmetric dialogue with the global East and South. Its support for dominance and cultural arrogance cut completely across the values Stubb believes must animate the West’s last chance to have a constructive dialogue with the emerging global order. What might be the ingredients of an alternative progressive internationalism that could animate Europe’s centrists, liberals, lefts and greens in dialogue with the global East and South? Realism now dictates an honest and equal dialogue with those who are different and prioritise values like fraternity and social solidarity over liberal freedoms.

If ever an organisation underestimated their opponent, it was the IFA on this occasion. The IFA is supposed to lead, but reacting isn’t leading. The IFA has painted itself into a corner, and it seems it can’t see a way out. That would restore the balance between cattle numbers and available land to take the then reduced slurry output, ending the current madness. If the IFA put a price on that, and came back to the table to negotiate it would get a hearing.

Asked if he had enough soldiers in his squad, Tudor insisted: "I hope so. "That's the truth, but they show they can be in some parts of the game. They were brought here to help and now maybe they are in a moment where they need to resolve the problems.
