However, supermarkets can deny entry to their premises which is private property, and can call the police if someone refuses to follow the rules or becomes abusive.

Also they could use health and saftey at work act.
Which basically has a bit that says the company has a duty of care to protect it staff for harm.
Not wearing on can be classed here.
Plus I didn't say disabled.
I said proof should be provided via a doctors letter not some tat, that can be bought without proof.
