“You don\u2019t have to read it. If you don\u2019t want to read it, all you have to do is close the thing and put it to one side. I can show you how to do that, Nick, it\u2019s easy peasy. Would you like me to demonstrate how to close a newspaper and place it to one side?”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After writing “who reads this fascist shit?” on a colleague’s edition of the Daily Mail, bookseller Nick is dragged into the managers office to face accusations of bullying in the workplace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
