What is Wetherspoons, svp? Just to expand - a pub chain run by a very prominent Brexiteer who ws telling the world that the UK did not need European workers - oh how the mighty are fallen.

Thank you flober and exile.
Is the owner a rather gormless, antipodean gob? If so, I know who but have never been into his whatever.

Except it's not of course, being a PLC it has a board of directors and shareholders to answer to, it's Brexiteer founder (Tim Martin) now only owns 20% of the shares and is the non-exec chairman so does not run the company.

The very company that laid off their workforce and told them to work in Tesco so they didn't have to bother with furlough.
Don't go there.

But the food and beer are cheap and they're open all day unlike most places here.
