Wednesday, June 18, 2008FOUR GRAND FOR HURTING THE BITCH'S FEELINGSRemember THIS? Well, it looks like the bitch scored nicely out of her 'hurt feelings', as she was awarded 4,000 quid (Dh28,809) by a tribunal in England. To quote from the header in the Daily Mail; 'It seems too lunatic to be true. But here a hair salon boss reveals how she was driven to the brink of ruin - and forced to pay £4,000 for 'hurt feelings' - after refusing to hire a Muslim stylist who wouldn't show her hair at work.' The article goes on to say; For Sarah Desrosiers, meeting Bushra Noah was not a moment in her life that she would describe as especially memorable. Not only was it brief - lasting little more than ten minutes - but it was rapidly obvious to Sarah that Bushra was not the person for the junior stylist position she was trying to fill at her hairdressing salon. Sarah's reasoning? Quite simply that Bushra, a Muslim who wears a headscarf for religions reasons, had made it clear she would not be removing the garment even while at work. Sarah felt that a job requirement of any hairdresser was that the stylist's hair would provide clients with a showcase of different looks. Especially one working in a salon such as hers, which specialises in alternative cuts and colours. Yet the ten minutes during which Sarah's world collided with Bushra's has resulted in an extraordinary employment battle, in which she was accused of 'direct' and 'indirect' discrimination. You can read the whole article HERE I find this whole thing absolutely despicable. The British legal system is a total bloody farce. If Bushy was so religious, why didn't she either apply to work in a Muslim run salon, or better yet, open her own bloody salon? She deserves to be shunned by her own community, because she has single-handedly undone a shitload of hard work by many people, who made the attempt at understanding her so called religious values. Those people have got to be asking themselves now: what's the fucking point? The soapbox awaits.....................
