I guess in practice you'd have to show some sort of logic to the decision, so couldn't apply rules arbitrarily. I'd always assumed it was absolutely at their discretion, but thinking about it there must be some sort of intersection with equal rights laws at some point (as per the Christian bakery gay cake episode). Otherwise a property owner could just ban headgear and effectively bar access to a huge chunk of religious folk, for example. Whereas banks can ban full-face motorbike helmets as the reason is clear and fair.
Any lawyers on here?

If I owned a shop and had a problem with pineapples would I be within my rights to stop anyone entering the premises with a pineapple...?
Genuine question.
