They will soon be in the news again, and we are still waiting for their last ‘investigation’ in October for kicking women out of one of their pubs for wrong thought

“Hi there, please could you send us a DM with some more information on this so we can get this looked into? Thankyou.”

Because

Dr EM @ PankhurstEM
“We have been ordered to leave, no woman can get served, and they sent men in uniform to brighten our evening.. hello officers!”

If you can, go see the tweets and the images. The only chink of saving grace is the feed back to their tweet (the first link here) is mostly appalled at the pubs behaviour

But ffs some absolute muppets questions, oooo maybe it’s a men only club (but who needs definitions of man / woman, sex, discrimination, the current year!)

“Can someone clarify or point to a tweet clarifying what exactly happened? If it’s just a men’s only space, I don’t see the problem. If it’s open to all, then…”

Bit more background here is Greene Kings response to Obsolesence after they tweeted in support

twitter.com/greenekingcares/status/1498004549264723976?cxt=HHwWkMC-7ezM_ckpAAAA

“Hi there, we have contacted the original complainant regarding this so we can collect some further information and get this looked into. Thank you for bringing this to our attention today.”

“What do we have here? Another @greeneking pub kicking women out of a pub for...(checks notes)...being women? I wonder if their barstaff will go online and call the women c*s like ours did?

Anti trans? How. Stating biology. Please get a grip.

ScreamingMeMe · 01/03/2022 10:33

(I definitely don't condone vandalising a Pride flag. That's just inflammatory.)

ScreamingMeMe · 01/03/2022 10:32

That doesn't help. Can you link some tweets or post some screenshots, please?

SevenWaystoLeave · 01/03/2022 10:03

Pictures all over twitter, they stuck anti-trans stickers all over the Pride flag. If they're claiming anything otherwise they are telling bald-faced lies.

ShrillSiren · 01/03/2022 09:58

Let's see some proof then... It's easy enough to add links.

SevenWaystoLeave · 01/03/2022 09:53

They vandalised the Pride flag. What for the love of god do you expect to happen if you go into a gay pub and vandalise the Pride flag.

KittenKong · 28/02/2022 22:17

Bet that have a lovely and tasteful stage name… who puts on lunchtime drag?

DontLikeCrumpets · 28/02/2022 21:28

@KittenKong

According to post by @VaddaABeetch it was the Drag Queen performer who had issues with them"

"The group were leaving by the time the police were arriving. There was a Drag Queen setting up who made noises that they shouldn’t be there.

Some of these reviews are pretty blunt.

So it has been a gay bar for a long time - Mostly older gay men by the looks of it until the ‘new crowd’ moved in. They sound awful.

I spent a lot of time on lesbian and gay bars/nightclubs in my younger years and NEVER felt unsafe or threatened. Nor did I even encounter a male in the ladies loos (with the exception of the odd teary/harassed young man who had been whisked in by other women for their own safety when they were being hassled by a odd bloke). What’s changed?

KittenKong · 28/02/2022 21:01

Silly wee twerps.

Sorry, to clarify, there was a similar kicking out in October, this was Feb 28th, City of Quebec pub. Greene King seem to be concerned but as they never fed back from their last investigation, I’m not convinced of their sincerity.

I was not there, this is all from tweets primarily from Dr EM @PankhurstEM who was there and Obsolesence @Obsolesence; both are names I trust to report this.

You would think a big group of women willing to but would be a good thing for a pub. Sadly the see women had their own thoughts & quite possibly their own opinions.

Or maybe the DQ couldn’t cope with all those women looking womanly (big small fat thin old middle aged young). around the DQ?

KittenKong · 28/02/2022 20:19

So they decided that because a woman who you don’t agree with comes in with a crowd of other people, you call the police? Seriously?

I thought drag queens were supposed to be ‘fe-erce grrrrrrrl’.

ScreamingMeMe · 28/02/2022 20:13

I read yesterday it was Posie’s crew after the speakers corner event. The usual pub was closed apparently.

Ah that might explain it. Somebody probably recognised her.

KittenKong · 28/02/2022 19:48

This pub had the mayors rainbow happy poster in the window, bleugh. Meaning - women will only be tolerated or the tow to party line.

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 28/02/2022 19:24

I'm just trying to get this straight.

A group of women walked into a pub on Oxford Street and had a few drinks. One or more members of staff took exception to their presence and summoned the police - why? Had they asked the women to go and the women refused? Had the women been accused of vandalism because of stickering? Do the police normally come to reprove people leaving stickers in the loos? Or was the mere presence of women with ribbons so threatening that they thought a hate crime was in process?

Do the Met normally turn out this promptly for this kind of alleged crime? I hear reports of police refusing to investigate burglaries and we all know how bad their records is on sexual assault.

I too am all for evidence here LizDoingTheCanCan

SunniDelite · 28/02/2022 18:47

Just found out from Insta that it was Posie and friends!... :)

Apollo441 · 28/02/2022 18:31

Yes @LizDoingTheCanCan could we have some evidence as gender ideologists have a well deserved reputation for repeatedly lying.

DontLikeCrumpets · 28/02/2022 18:24

@HirplesWithHaggis I'm confused because Doctors pub in Edinburgh is owned by the Green King chain. If this is a separate incident than its an odd coincidence that two similar incidents happen in two different pubs owned by the same chain

KittenKong · 28/02/2022 18:05

Ahhhh, sorry, long day and I’ve not had lunch yet!

Must be time to crack open the wine and family pack of Doritos, no?

AlisonDonut · 28/02/2022 17:59

@KittenKong

Not by my definition .
Sorry, I was being sarcastic...
KittenKong · 28/02/2022 17:58

@SunniDelite

I live in London and would never go in ANY PUB on Oxford Street. I've read the Tripadvisor reports about the toilets and can't imagine that any woman would go there more than once.... :( I boycotted the Greene King pub in Whitby because of the Glasgow thing, though, and will probably continue....
Me too - it’s the boozer equivalent of eating pizza by the slice a cart in Leicester Square. Touristy, dirty and definitely likely to cause gas…

I walk passed it a lot - I’m not sure when they went full rainbow yfronts (I assume it’s a staff preference) but the flag outside alone would put me off.

Clem Fandango and someone pulling pints in drag makeup would have definitely finished me off.
