Preferred pronoun badges at the Halifax bank.

Its of little interest to me what any organisation put on their name badges. What is important to me is false culture wars stoked by right wing media. So, with that in mind:

One person on social media said they wanted to close their account and the Halifax explained to them how to do it.

Putting preferred pronouns on their badges was a completely optional thing for staff.

But that's not nearly such an inflammatory story, is it?

Go woke go broke.

How very strange! Some of their Twitter responses to customers would make me want to close my account because they’re downright rude. I don’t mind their staff wearing whatever badges they choose, but I don’t want to have ‘a conversation around gender identity’ when I visit my bank. I want to talk about money. My money. I don’t bank with the Halifax anyway.

I think a lot of customers will threaten to close their accounts, and some undoubtedly will do exactly that, but I suspect that the majority will moan a lot but in the end do nothing more than that.

I wonder if their staff were given a similar choice: "If you disagree with it, find a job elsewhere."
