London, July 8 : A gay rights group is opposing a council''s plan to remove undergrowth from a certain area in Bristol, insisting that the move was ‘discriminating’ to homosexual men who used the area for late night outdoor sex.
Bristol City Council wants to prune bushes and remove cover from an area known as the Downs to improve the landscape and encourage rare wildlife.
However, the Rainbow Group – the council’s own lesbian, gay and bisexual action group – objected to the move and said that it was a threat to gay rights.
