In one HRMC office in the north west of England, local management established what the workers there have labelled a "Guanteddymo Bay". All staff's teddy bears were removed, staff said, by "dawn raids" and "special rendition" from their desks and placed in a locked glass case so the workers can still see their teddy bears but not touch them.
Maybe the managers have the Teddy's in orange jumpsuits? Could that refered to as extraordinary rendition with regard the removal of bears, also will Liberty be getting involved if one of the Teddy's in question happens to come from the third world and have the name Mohammed?
Then again after the Gillian Gibbons case its best not to refer to bears by that name...
But seriously, the complaint here is that workers have had their Teddies taken away from them?! Quite how old are these people?
How sad that our nation is managed by incompetent ass-hats who need a comfort bear on their desk and how amusing that Gregor Gall saw it as a fit subject to complain about in CIF...
As for the moan about hot desking, well suck it up and deal with it us real workers in the real world outside of local/national government have been doing that for years!

This story is not about teddy bears. Its about treating workers like slaves, removing anything personal from their desks. HMRC is trying to get rid of 25000 staff. You wont pay any less tax but it will take much longer to get your letters answered. Fight this, support workers everywhere.
Maybe if they did not have teddy bears in the workplace, like most workers they would be more productive.
Ban the bears!
