The Royal Mail has banned postal workers from flying flags on their delivery vehicles during the World Cup.
Postal chiefs said flags could distract drivers or “pose a potential hazard to other road users” if they came loose, and that the decision was made to uphold the company’s duty of care to employees and the public.
I wonder how it was Postman Pat was allowed to drive a van with a cat companion?
Anyhoo, about 125,000 delivery staff across 1,400 depots nationwide will be affected by the ban. However, 25,000 backroom staff will be allowed to display flags in offices.
All in all, whether this is "'elf and safety gone mad" or not, it is academic as England will probably crash out of the World Cup soon enough!
