There is one letter of difference between the adjective crass and the noun cross. British Airways was criticised as tactless and insensitive after it banned last September an employee, Nadia Eweida, from wearing at work the most potent symbol of Christianity. The airline came as close as is likely to be the case to uttering a five-letter word, sorry, for the ensuing controversy yesterday when it announced its uniform policy was being changed. Staff will now be allowed to wear all religious symbols, including crosses. There will be "some flexibility" in the case of staff wearing an emblem of faith on a chain.
