To think this is pointless (Primark tills)

I came across this on facebook and although its a good idea in theory I cant help but think its abit pointless, A till specifically for disabled customers. Ive never seen any in my local stores so dont know how many Primarks have it.
But apparently you can also use it if you are pregnant or have a double buggy 🙄 Surely the queues will be just as long then? and surely its a choice to buy a pram so wide it doesnt fit at the other tills?!

If they made all the tills accessible to everyone we wouldn't have to have this argument (haven't rtft).

I have that exact pram pictured, it's great for the school run but long and heavy to push now they are toddlers especially- I couldn't fit it by a primark till without encroachment on other tills

@whatsthepointthen alright let me reword it for you...

They are there for the use of wheelchair users ANY Primark that lets mom's with prams or pregnant women use it are doing it out of the goodness of their heart. Maybe it's an issue you should raise with whatever Primark you enter.

Have you ever been to primark in a wheelchair?? I have- it is not nice. The tills are so narrow that my chair blocked the whole width so none of the shoppers in the queue behind me could get to the tills that were free in front and no one who had already paid could pass to leave. So not only are you struggling to reach to pay the cashier you have annoyed shoppers behind you when there's literally nothing you can do because it's just not designed to accommodate people in a wheelchair.
