Ban on Christmas Cheer -- (UK) Garbage men not allowed to wear Santa hats
The pettiness and peevishness are mind-numbing:

City council in United Kingdom says hats aren't 'professional' and create a health threat for the refuse collectors.

BINMEN have been banned from wearing Santa hats — on health grounds.

The refuse collectors in Kingston upon Hull have worn the traditional red hats for years.

Now city council scrooges say “it does not create a professional impression of the council”.

But one angry binman told The Sun: “It doesn’t look like anyone can escape the PC brigade this year."
