UKIP just opened an office next to a gay sauna and a Polish supermarket
The UK Independence Party might be getting used to unconventional neighbours – after opening an office between a Polish supermarket and a gay sauna.
Last month the party opened an office on Crawley Street in Luton – just one door down from the Greenhouse Sauna for gay and bisexual men.
The party says it chose the location because the office space was cheap, but a number of men who frequent the sauna were surprised to meet their new neighbours.
One man told the Daily Star: “I was stunned when the boards went up. Never in a million years did we think we’d have a UKIP office move in next door to us.”
Another added: “It’s ironic given what some of the party’s members have said about homosexuality.”
However, the party’s election agent Bob Clements told the newspaper he didn’t mind the location.
He said: “[The Sauna] has got nothing to do with us, we are not bothered. We were looking around and this was a property that came up on the market at the right price.
“We have also got a Polish store and a Lebanese restaurant next to us. We are not bothered who is near us.”
We’re glad that if any UKIP members in Luton get a hunger for anything, all they have to do is pop next door – to the Polish supermarket, of course…
