Gay couple refused entry to Wetherspoons pub because of their sexuality

A gay man has claimed that both he and his partner were turned away from a Wetherspoons pub, because of their sexuality.

Joshua Fox, 23, has said that the couple were refused entry to The Moon Under Water pub in Manchester, after they had been for a meal in the city.

Door staff at the pub reportedly told them that the watering hole was only welcoming ‘mixed couples’ as they tried to enter.
