Nicola Thorpe was sent home without pay because she refused to wear high heels at work and said such a requirement was sexist unless men were ordered to do it too.

There is a petition here for such nonsense to be made illegal though, to be honest, it already should be regarded as illegal if it is not applied equally to all genders.

What happens if/ when the fire alarm goes off ?
Is she allowed to take the heals off to Run exit building or just totter out confused
