Euston Station charges me 20p to use the loos, too - but an employer can't charge their staff.
Or is it more convenient for you to consider the 2 cases differently?
If, as you say, judges would have a more sensible approach, the 2 examples should be treated equally. Thankfully the law is in the hands of smarter people than you, though.Comment

But there is a duty of care and further obligations to employees on business trips. Let's turn it around, because it's absolutely identical legally, would you support a ban on veggie dishes? Would you support a policy that says you can only claim back Big Macs from McDonalds?

It's not really about the environment because how do they know that their employees aren't doing everything else possible to improve the environment, but just choose to eat meat?Comment
