Street filled with rainbow doormats after gay couple had theirs sprayed black

A street has been filled with rainbow doormats by supportive neighbours after a gay couple living there had theirs sprayed black. The colourful doormats in support of Pride are appearing on the street where Susie Day lives with her partner.

Susie and her partner moved to their new home in Bedminster in Bristol, and put the £6 Dunelm doormat down in time for this month's Pride celebrations. The doormat was soon stolen, so they went out and bought a new one.

This time, they glued it down so it couldn’t be taken. And whoever had objected to the rainbow colours on a small doormat, appears to have returned with a can of black spray paint.
