Yes you can with their permission.
But why oh why does this happen,what are you reps (some) up to!?

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Way Forward Agreement 2000
4. Annual Leave

Carrying leave into another year
Annual leave should generally be taken in the year that it is due, and the business expects all employees to
have at least four weeks away from work every year. However up to one week (or 5 odd days) may be carried
over into the next leave year, and up to five days may be anticipated during the last month of the previous
leave year. Transfer of leave in excess of these limits requires written permission from the line manager,
except that leave that cannot be taken due to sick leave may be allowed in the following year. Where this is
granted and would reduce the annual leave taken in a particular leave year to less than four weeks, the
individual must also confirm in writing that they are willing to voluntarily forego their statutory leave
entitlement under the Working Time Regulations 1998.
