    Already decided to boycott them for other reasons but this feels even more vindicated now.

    I wont - but then I have only been in one Weatherspoons pub in the last year - for various reasons now I definitely wont be going in one under any circumstances

    I’m not sure they will.

    Deborah Meadon described it as his Gerald Ratner moment.

    I have to admit to a soft spot for a spoons, I even forgave his Brexit stance (his pubs aren’t responsible for his political views). But this is beyond the pale.

    Only ever been in once. In Leeds for an appointment with wife's legal reps and we popped into
    the Wetherspoons at Leeds Station. Bit of an eye opener.! After that visit, we used one of the
    bars in the Queens Hotel.
