I was just reading an article just now about an elderly lady who wet herself at a McDonald's because an employee would not allow her access to the restroom facilities. Here's my question-let's say a person was in this lady's predicament, having to go super bad and they simply told the employee "f-ck you, I'm going into the restroom" and shoved their way in if necessary. Would there be legal repercussions for this? Would the fact that you were on the verge of having an accident be a legal defense against any charges pertaining to this?
My answer to your question is that in the UK and in theory, yes I think there could be legal repercussions (assault) and no I don't think that being on the verge of wetting yourself would be a defence. BUT in this case, old frail lady and young strong McD's employee? I am not sure it would hit court. have you got a link to the article?
Swansea Council have managed to keep all our Libraries open, so I suppose may be more important. The good thing is that the village Library lets people use the toilet if asked to.

Very clearly you dont know the UK very well! They have been there for a while, however, I did see one damaged a while back but was soon repaired. I live in a small Welsh town, and to be honest the only sign of "junkies" in the area is the sharps disposal bin.

I'm a lapsed member of Quora, it's just a collection of late-night AB questions rolled into one and an indication of low educational standards in the land of the free.
so it was a KFC in Oz and the lady was out with a carer...... I kind of read a subtext that the lady had some kind of cognitive issue. If this is the case I would suggest that the carer was taking insufficient care. Yes it was unkind of the KFC employee but (surprise surprise) I don't think the Mail are telling the whole story.
