Christmas office decorations, playground snowball fights and coins in puddings have all been wrongly banned as health and safety risks, the Government has said.
Panto performers have also been stopped from throwing sweets to the audience under the "ridiculous" reason that it was a hazard, it was revealed.
The Government published a list of so-called "Christmas elf and safety myths", which included children being banned from having snowball fights; office workers told they cannot put up Christmas decorations; panto performers ordered not to throw sweets into the audience; being sued for clearing snow from outside your business or home; and preventing people from putting coins in traditional Christmas puddings. |
The legacy of the looney Labour govt. They literally lived in a fantasy world. Hopefully the tories will slowly undo all of the impractical nonsense they lumbered us with during their tenure.... |
