National Trust backtracks on rainbow badge rules

The National Trust has reversed a decision to ban staff from public-facing duties if they refused to wear badges promoting LGBTQ equality.Staff at the 17th century Felbrigg Hall in Norfolk were removed from public-facing roles after they said they were "uncomfortable" wearing the symbols.The National Trust said its campaign was a matter of "exploring our LGBTQ heritage" as part of its Prejudice and Pride campaign.
