I have been to Baylis House, there is a separate area for religious ceremonies in which there is no bar and never has been a bar. It is a clean venue and I believe the Guru Granth Sahib Ji will be given the respect it deserves.
We should not allow our religious events to be ruined by what is a political decision.
We should be grateful that the youth are still taking part in religious weddings, after all, all that English law requires is a registry office wedding.
I believe that by attending on Sunday we are at risk of looking like terrorists. We will give our faith a bad name, much like the way many people think all Muslims are terrorists. People will start to think all Sikhs, or people wearing turbans are terrorists or militants.
Instead of attending on Sunday we should try and encourage people to hold their events at a Gurdwara. It is too late to do anything about Sunday. Why should somebody’s special day be ruined?
