A heathrow Airport employee is going to sue British Airways for religious discrimination because while at work her cross necklace showed and she was asked to cover it up as per the uniform policy.
Miss Eweida refused to do this as it was a symbol of her faith.
See whats happening here? Britain is getting more like America everyday, fat pushy people that go around looking for lawsuits, no offense to my to my brash, obese Yank readers but its true, I don't want to get into a fight over someone spilling my pint only to have their lawyer serve me with papers afterwards, where is the dignity in that? the rules have always been whoever loses the least body parts (teeth, earlobes, tuffs of hair etc) and the least blood wins, no special weapons allowed just whats around, its not an uncivilized brawl its an art form with ingenuity and guile that's the honourable way, and both parties retain their respect, my old Ma was a local bare knuckle champion for 8 years straight, me Da was into all that Brazilian dance fighting shit, Capoeira, usually when he was *pissed* so he didn't come off too good, when he got home me Ma would kick the shit out of him for losing, " fight like a man" she'd say as she gives him a right hook to the chin, "this is how to kick" as she boots him in the ribs, ah my parents were indeed soulmates, the cups of hot tea thrown in faces, the slaps on the back of the head, nowadays some wishy washy liberals would call that abuse but back then it was affection.
Back to Miss Eweida, my only consolation is that she is from an Egyptian background and goes to both Arab and Pentecostal churches, put all this together and you have a trouble maker, so Miss Eweida, your faith is stronger when your 'e showing it off to other people? putting it under your clothes as you've done for the past 7 years is no longer good enough, Heathrow is a fucking busy place, you work at the check-in seeing thousands of people a day of different faiths, what is this like gang colours or something? let me paraphrase the very first Protestant Jesus H Christ.
" Go forth my children and be strong in your faith, remember its not whats around your neck that counts, its whats in your heart so be humble and don't be a dick, especially you crazy Pentecostal cunts, here listen as I talk in tongues out of my arse" .

There are double standards, as Turbans that cannot be concealed are allowed to be worn, heres what Old Knudsen advises, zero tolerance for religious nuts, if you accept a job with uniform dress codes then abide by it, if you can't then leave, as I have said before, leave religion out of the workplace unless you're the Pope or something.
Did you hear about all those prisoners years back that invented their own religions to get perks, "its my religion to have green jello everynight, oh I worship at the altar of the porno mag " and they got away with a lot of it because you can't go around refusing rights, it smacks of Communism or Fascism.
I know your game Miss Eweida look at your plump worried face that plays the victim so well, I hope your case gets thrown out of court, for if you win then you'll have people serving you at McDonald's wearing Swastikas and claiming to be Odinists,"sorry I can't serve black people, browns, jews or any other colour but white, its against my religion, have a nice day, please call again".
*For those who don't speak English, Pissed = drunk*
