A website has shared a list of access codes online for those caught short in cafes and shops. But can it can stop people weeing in the streets?

It is an act of the purest social altruism. Two citizens – or, as they are now known, toilet activists – have built a database of loo codes for cafes and shops across the capital.

Perhaps people need to know what it feels like to suffer from bladder diseases or crohns and then they would let you use loos.

Stood to pay at a garage the other day when a bloke popped £2 on the counter. He’d used the loo but hadn’t bought anything from the shop so voluntarily paid for the facility. Seemed a nice gesture.

20 years in Spain with no public toilets, ok, pop in and have a coffee €1.20 or a free pee,sorted. UK code numbers, druggies, locked loos, prohibited.... coffee best party of a £5...pee in the street...? Civilised ?

Isn’t it odd that Americans and Britons lock public bathrooms. When did that memo go out? Americans supposedly did it because of homeless bathing. What’s the British excuse?

Right to rebel = kick that door down

Liberals take up residence in public restrooms -- it turns into an unsafe place where they have sex (turn tricks) or do drugs. Liberals aren't civil or potty trained

More Americanization' in place, esp in regards to urban cafes, (locks on loo doors). If you are closing up public facilities then pass a law requiring establishments to let everybody take a whizz when they need to.

And let all the disease ridden druggies in. Yeah, great move.

“adventure wee” 😀

Women don't urinate in the streets? What out of touch sexist garbage. Somone needs to go on a night out and see what is really going on in the world.

I seriously don't understand why some businesses won't let people use their restrooms. I usually support the business when I need to use their restroom, but it usually happens after I've had a chance to go. When you have to go, you have to go. 🤷‍♀️
