💨 Abstract

Two music fans from Wales had their Airbnb booking in Manchester rejected solely because they were Welsh. Jemma Louise Gough and Jamie Lee Watkins were planning to see a concert and were shocked to receive a message stating, "Because you’re from WALES." The pair reported the incident as discrimination under the Equality Act 2010. Airbnb confirmed they had suspended the host and were investigating the matter.
