A platform listing a flat for rent as only being available to Christians has said the advert is allowed. The property is being adevryised on SpareRoom but the landlord has asked for “Christian and Catholics” only to apply because the person wants to “avoid other religions.”
A SpareRoom site manager originally said the listing broke no rules because “religion wasn’t a protected characteristic,” reports MyLondon.
The listing reads: “Hi guys, this room is available immediately, I am trying to avoid different religions so probably if you are Catholic or Christian would suit best, I don’t have anything against other religions but it’s best when we just respect each other and not live with each other.” The listing adds that they want a 'sociable and friendly' woman.
