A pub has hit back after being labelled "The Golden Karen" in a row over people using its toilets.
The Golden Lion on Moor Street, Ormskirk, placed a chalk board outside the pub this week with a message asking people who were not dining to use public toilets elsewhere. The sign read: "We are not a public toilet. Nearest is bus station or M&S carpark" with a smiley face at the end."
The sign was posted anonymously on social media and immediately people started commenting on it with one calling it "snotty" and another "not a nice welcome" for visitors to the area. The pub released a statement a short time later adding that it had been struggling with the "absolute mess" people have been leaving the toilets in.
