The decision to avoid prosecution and concentrate on minimising risk, is understandable, given that HM Government would be the principal defendant in the majority of serious cases. Peter Edwards

Hundreds of thousands of workers within the UK have to work on Sundays. These include staff in emergency, hospital, statutory undertakers (gas, water etc), police, newspaper printers, and shift workers who may work part of that day. My wife was a nurse and so had to be on duty at weekends. During the 60s I worked for a survey consultancy. Contracts were all over the UK. For efficiency, we worked a 10-day fortnight. During the middle Sunday I agreed with my senior partner that, subject to work requirements, I could arrange to attend a local church in the evening. I never had any bother with this. Other industries have 3-week rotas, eg gas & oil. Provided the work situation requires working on a Sunday, then so be it. Where it is simply for financial gain, then there may well be a case for refusing. A Christian organisation should recognise this. Their opening on a Sunday seems as if it is being done for the latter reason. Peter Edwards
