West Country Wetherspoon customer left 'humiliated' after questioning staff on toilet policy

A man claims he was kicked out of a Wetherspoon pub in the West Country when questioning why staff were allowing able-bodied people to use the disabled toilet. The ordeal unfolded when Keith Rowe visited Try Dowr, in Truro, earlier this month.

The 56-year-old said he was made to "feel like a rat trapped in the corner" saying he was "cornered" by staff who escorted him out of the building for querying the policy. His late wife, who passed away in February 2022, would often go to use the facilities and find able-bodied people "nonchalantly" coming out of them and he's continuing the fight for her, reports Cornwall Live.
