      Daily mail also has this story here

      Royal tea room owner throws out group of women who refused to stand for National Anthem | Mail Online

      but it describes them as

      A royal-themed tearoom owner threw out a group of grey-haired women after they refused to stand for the National Anthem.
      Looks like the PC brigade has stepped in.. 'three old ladies' wouldn't be right and correct.. oh no no no...

              If they don't know how to make a decent cup of coffee in a "Tea House" don't put it on the menu!

                It was a classic moderator infraction followed probably by a swift banning.

                And the advertising was priceless.

                I wouldn't have put up with rude sniffy coffee-drinkers who weren't prepared to follow the rules - they probably also pointed out that she was inconsistent for not banning the non-English speakers at the next table for not standing up.

                And I'll bet her coffee was perfectly acceptable and the grannies were just bitching at the 'injustice' and complaining loudly to anyone who entered the shop...

                  Indeed. A great marketing ploy.

                  Though I would like to see her trying to throw Spod out, I bet he can't sit during the national anthem even in his living room.....

                    They were thrown out for "NOT" standing during the National Anthem!

                    Rightly so!

                    Imo we should salute the Union Flag and sing the National Anthem every morning, bring some ******* pride back into the sh!thole we call our country!
