Freddie Mercury had this party trick down back in the 80s, though they were used for a very different sort of entertainment than Lamal used them for.

My lad went on an end of season trip to Dublin with a club. One of the players dressed up as Willy Wonka and hired a 'short guy' to accompany him as an Oompaloompa.

I thought it was going to be Party Dwarves of the more hedonistic kind, like all the goings on at the Culver Hotel when the Wizard of Oz was being filmed. They were crazy, as the police with nets trying to catch them found out.

Not sure why are they are making something out of a relatively small issue.

Eh? Talk about a massive over-reaction. “The ADEE said it "publicly denounces the hiring of people with dwarfism as part of the entertainment”. Way to go for removing opportunities for people based on their physical characteristics

exactly the point made by one of them. From the Blaugranes Barca site.

“I don’t understand why there’s so much hype. We’re normal people, who do what we want, in an absolutely legal way.

“For a couple of years now these people have been harming us, they want to ban a job that we like, and in no case have they offered jobs or courses to the affected people. We work as entertainers. Why can’t we do it? Because of our physical condition?

“We know what our limit is and we will never exceed it: we are not fairground monkeys.”

The entertainer also spoke about what the job had entailed at Yamal’s party.

“We dance, we distribute drinks, we do magic ... there are many types of shows,” he added and went on to explain that after working for an hour they were allowed to join the party. “We were one more, everyone had a great time. All this mess was formed just because it was Lamine Yamal’s party.”

They missed a trick here, headline should have read "Lamal in the Dock over hiring party dwarves".

There is definitely a Monty Python sketch in this story somewhere.

"We have a right to earn money from our performances!"

"No, you don't! They are taking advantage of your disability for cruel entertainment. Stop doing that!"

"But we like doing it and we are getting well paid for it too!"

"How much? ... Did you need another entertainer? ..."

Just hope that they weren't short changed.

Can't really have this going on, what would Elf and Safety make of it all.

Maybe my memory playing tricks but in the early days of Satellite TV, late 80s early 90s, wasn't there a channel with Dwarfs bouncing on trampolines doing the weather forecast or am I just imagining it?
