Man barred from Wetherspoon after row over disabled toilets

A man says he was evicted from a Wetherspoon pub before he could finish lunch and has been barred after asking staff why they were allowing able-bodied people to use the disabled toilet. Keith Rowe, 56, said he was "cornered" by staff who escorted him out of the building.

He said his late wife, would often use the facilities and find able-bodied people coming out of the toilets. Keith told CornwallLive: "Tan and me had problems in every Spoons we went and just getting shrugged shoulders is not good enough and totally unfair on those who actually need the disabled toilet and are being made to wait to use it."

While waiting for his lunch, Mr Rowe became frustrated watching seemingly able-bodied people coming and going from the disabled toilet without closing the door. He questioned a staff member on why it was being allowed.
