A gay pub has been accused of being �unprincipled� and �disingenuous� after a customer was told to stop kissing his boyfriend because it is �inappropriate.�

Scott Blockley, 39, was shocked when the General Manager of the Rose and Crown pub in Greenwich told him to stop kissing his partner Marc Finbow, 24, because other customers may find it offensive.

He said: �I was on a first date � kissing my new friend at one end of the bar � away from other people in the bar when the bar manager told us our behaviour was �inappropriate at this time of the day.

�I asked if the Rose and Crown was a gay pub � the manager replied �yes, but we are a mixed pub too, we always have been.�
