Time to give high heels the boot?

Few women can resist the allure of a pair of high heels - however, the appeal appears to be lost on delegates at the Trades Union Congress, who demanded yesterday that employers take a stand against the risks of wearing high heels in the workplace.

What do you think? Are they to blame for the two million working days lost each year to lower limb disorders?

Should women who work in the retail or airline profession be allowed to wear "sensible" shoes to work and not be forced into high heels by companies' uniform policies?
