Well thats going to make the Muslim guy incredibly popular with the rest of the department... My thoughts entirely. This woke bullshit should have been called, 'how to alienate the Muslim in the group'. |

Muslims should be forced to eat food during Ramadan because I will be eating during that time.

I work in the civil service and there's currently a Christmas tree in every office and yes, we're going out on the lash (several times, actually).
No one's offended and of course the non-drinkers are invited.
Typical DM balderdash.

Anonymous story of perhaps at most one incident being written up to give the impression to the gullible that this is widespread policy. And who is the arch gullible OP? No surprise….

Most people would see the idea of a hand so far up their arse as being not a good thing at all but you seem to love it. Those of us with brains worked out that this was classic DM shite. An idiot untrue headline aimed at getting their army of puppets to promote. Go on admit it, you didn't read the actual article that disproves their headline and your thread title did you. 'Civil Servants' (a generic reference default meaning all Civil Servants) have not been told to so refer. Individual managers have been allowed to make the right decision for their offices. The clue being in the article when it said: 'There is no government-wide policy but managers have made own choices' |

I see, so what you're saying is, because you claim to work in the civil service which lets face it, could mean you're a cleaner, it is totally impossible that the civil service told people to call Christmas parties, festive gatherings, as the Daily Mail claim. This from the Telegraph: Civil servants have been told they must refer to their Christmas parties as “festive celebrations” and cannot drink alcohol if members of their team are sober in an attempt to promote diversity and inclusion.www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2022/12/10/call-christmas-parties-festive-celebrations-civil-servants-told/TSM, do you think it's a conspiracy, do you think the DM and the Telegraph have joined forces to tell lies about civil service? Or do you think they just may be telling the truth. |

Red you've been played, the DM and DT are so happy about this I dare say they are, why do you think that means I've been 'played'? Unless like TSM you are of the opinion that it's a conspiracy, that the Daily Mail and Telegraph are intentionally conspiring to tell lies? |

Many publications and blogs have picked up the story and use surprisingly similar language.
Also surprisingly, if this were an official instruction, gov.uk sites giving information on payments, closures, changed services during this time refer to Christmas…

The article in the DM makes it clear this is an isolated incident for anyone who bothers to read it while choosing a headline designed to give the impression that the practice is widespread and dictated from the top. It is a “story” designed to pander to gullible people seeking outrage.
Guess who fell for it….
