If it wasn't such a terrible pun I would have said that this should have been posted yesterday - May the Fourth be with you. Sorry. I'll do some proper work now!

"Following his ejection, Jarvis filled out a complaint form and within three days got a written apology from branch boss Wendy Flewers. She said: "We are committed to provide a customer service which embraces diversity and respects customers' religion."

Jediism was officially "recognised" as a religion back in 2001..."

I've never heard such nonsense in all my life. The world has gone mad. The above action and statement shows that even when the DWP try to get it right they only succeed in getting it spectacularly wrong.

In reply to 1964- I didn't think of it either, my eight year old daughter came home from school on Tuesday saying it was 'Star Wars Day' !
