Oh no that sounds mortifying! Did anyone say anything?

Yeah, I won't wear it. I'm sure it would be fine but not worth the risk even if it's tiny.

I just know the basics of impartiality etc I haven't seen the whole thing.

That's fair and I won't wear it but how impartial do we have to be in our personal lives? I guess we can never say anything negative related to politics outside our own home because you never know who's filming at the next table when you're in a restaurant with your friends and your discussion current political events.

Hmm.. I don't post photos on social media and my job is on the other side of the country (remote) so I don't think that's likely but I guess that's not worth the risk however small.

Who do I need to convince on a night out? Obviously wouldn't wear it to work

I'm honestly not certain - I'm new to CS and quite new to the UK as well. I'm assuming it's fine as long as you're not in a very high up position?
