No no no!!
It's not forbidden - and actually reasonably common to observe.
A local LLL and midwife, Liz Weatherly, has taken a petition to governenment
to get the law changed to make it illegal to discriminate against bf in
public, as it is not enshrined in law to be able to do so.

Most of the public think there doesn't need to be a law change to allow it,
that it should be left as is, but Liz's point is that  adding it to, say,
human rights legislation, would protect bf further.
