(Telegraph) - Wine lovers can no longer purchase their favourite Burgundy tipple using Google’s Shopping service after the internet giant cracked down on search queries featuring the term 'gun'.

Google Shopping, which allows users to compare product prices from thousands of online retailers, has removed all 'gun' search results - even if the product is not gun-related.

Online shoppers have complained about being unable to browse dozens of products such as Burgundy wine, water guns and music by American rock band Guns N' Roses.
