In BA's defence
Quote:

"British Airways uniform standards stipulate that adornments of any kind are not to be worn with the uniform."
Seem's pretty clear to me. No adornments.

The school with the headscarves is bs. The law should get them for being racist.

And the teacher:
Quote:

Bosses at Headfield Church of England Junior School in Dewsbury, West Yorks, agreed Azmi, 24, could wear the veil around the school, but not while teaching.
Sounds right to me. If the students can't understand what she's saying in class and she won't remove the veil then screw her, she shouldn't hold the job.

"Other items such as turbans, hijabs and bangles can be worn as it is not practical for staff to conceal them beneath their uniforms."

Is it okay for BA then if their Christian stewardesses wear a nun cap with a crucifix on it? Oh, now I can be brought to court, for "stewardess" is verabl discirmination in europe since one or two years. What means "professionelle Flugbegleiterin" in English? Oh, wrong word again, I'm a dog, "professionell" in German language has a very bad taste if used with regard to females...

I remember that one or two years ago a schoolboy, a Sik, was allowed to wear a sharp dagger at school because carrying knife is some part of Sik culture.

what irritates me, and without doubt man others, is that since some time it is always Western and Chrsitian tradtion being told to remove this symbool, and nnot to do that thing. We had comparable things with crucifixes in German schoolclasses in Bavaria, for example. But having Turkish flags at the roomwalls is okay.
