A postman was escorted home by police following a row after he turned up to work in the wrong shorts, the Communication Workers Union said today. The employee at a Royal Mail sorting office in Northampton is thought to have been wearing non-Royal Mail issue blue shorts when he arrived at work yesterday morning. The man refused to go home from the sorting office in Great Billing, Northampton, to change the shorts as he felt very comfortable in the ones he was wearing. His managers then called police to escort him off the premises, union representatives said. The row has sparked criticism from the Communication Workers Union (CWU) who say the managers' response was a complete 'over reaction'. He said the row had started when managers tried to send the man home without pay. He said: 'He
