RE: Suffolk, it depends on the uniform. I've had uniforms in my offices, and I'm only a secretary. I could have changed at work before going home, but why? The policies set by Suffolk are making it impossible for smokers working within the Trust to smoke on their lunch breaks or on their way home if their uniform is glorified street clothes.

RE: CCTV in schools, parents like that will always find excuses for that sort of behaviour. It's sad, but it's true. And eventually, those parents will just stop going to the conferences to look at the tapes altogether.
