The Labour party has accused small coffee shops of stealing trade from small toilet operators by providing toilets to its customers.


In its latest salvo against big business, Labour said the freeToilets scheme was having a “stark effect” on small toilet operators in the UK.

Andy Sawford, shadow communities minister, has written to every MP with a local small coffee shop asking them to press the shops to charge for toilets in the “spirit of fair competition”.
