A viral Twitter video shows Lidl staff ejecting shoppers for failing to wear a mask.
After the original account that posted the video went private, it was reposted earlier today by Estebantz.
People in the comments think they recognize the customer from Big Brother.
They believe it is DJ Spiral who appeared on Big Brother 7 in 2006.

As the Lidl staff member asks the man, who Twitter users believe to be DJ Spiral, to leave, he responds saying ‘I’m not leaving the store, I know my constitutional rights’ and encourages the staff member to ‘ring the police’.
Take a look at the video here:

Most people seem to be on Lidl’s side saying they did a good job:
I’m delighted you did. I watched it and was about to reply that the Lidl staff member was in no way aggressive…when the account went private. Their sense of entitlement to behave differently to everyone else is shocking! Such eejits. #WearAMask

He may or may not have constitutional rights in relation to wearing a mask, but any business has the right to serve a customer or not. Well done Lidl for sticking to your guns on this. 👏👏
