Outrageous.
I hope they got sacked. Obviously I can see why they would begrudge delivering that sort of thing but it's a bit of a Pandora's box is it not? If Asian postmen don't have to deliver BNP leaflets why, for example, should Unionist postmen deliver SNP leaflets? Surely postmen are paid to post things through people's letterboxes, not decide on whether or not they agree with their content?
To be honest, i wouldnt be comfortable about delivering that, as would many others, so if the union were to support the decision (as they did then) i reckon i would refuse to deliver it too!!!
