My pals in HMRC say they have stopped going for these badges, and recently were told to remove them from any letters and stationery.<br /><br />Around about the time the morale started going downhill rapidly, following the bungled merger with the Inland Revenue. <br /><br />A total coincidence, I'm sure... ;)<br /><br /><i>"Sheer, unadulterated brilliance!"</i> <br />http://www.urlesque.com/2010/07/01/conan-the-barbarian-the-musical/<br />Not entirely.
