There are some silly people

I agree that a church bench should be repainted. One comment was that “It is inappropriate for mourners to be faced with an emotive symbol when respectful neutrality in such sacred surroundings is a reasonable sign of respect.”

So many things, these days, are done because they are flavour of the month and people like to jump on a bandwagon.

Before I read the story I thought it was in support of the LGBTQ+ community but it seems it was an NHS rainbow which the colours sought to convey.

So, if only because this colour combination can be misconstrued, it should be repainted.
