A PUBLIC protest is being planned in support of the women who were refused entry into Havana nightclub for being ‘too fat’.

About 700 people have joined the Facebook site Havana Club Jersey Discrimination following the news that overweight clubbers were not welcome at the Halkett Street club at the weekend.

Havana proprietor Martin Sayers, who has applied for permission to open a new nightclub and restaurant on the old abattoir site, has apologised to all the large ladies who were told to ‘go home and lose some weight’ on Saturday night. He has now promised to reverse his controversial decision.

But that is not good enough for Helen Hunter, whose friends feel humiliated after being told they were ‘too big’ to go into the club. She is the creator of the Facebook protest page and is now planning to organise a demonstration outside the club on Friday night with friends.
