Isn't it amazing, not only does this ruddy Muslim get to not serve alcohol in a supermarket (just like the under 18 year olds) but (and this really makes me mad):

If I were to employ a woman, she would be able to just leave her job if she got pregnant. And she would have the right to return to her job in 12 months time. If I didn't provide her with a job she would be able to sue me. Men don't get that right.

I tell you - it's PC gone mad. Its the end of Great Britain as we know it. Bring back the corsets and the regular beatings. blah blah blah, muslim, muslim, muslim, asylum seeker, paedophile, muslim, ad lib to fade.

sp1814 - I remember the 70's too, and the fact that I had brown testes never did my career any harm.
To be fair though, the rest of me is white so maybe you have a point.

But that's a massive 'if'.

It's so hypothetical that it's difficult to argue it as a point.

Okay, let's say you took your company to a tribunal claiming sexual discrimination because you weren't allowed to take off time equal to a woman's maternity leave, your employer would be in their rights to say, "Okay, once you start ovulating, and then carry a baby to full term, we'll give you maternity leave".

The reason why men can't have maternity leave is coz we can't have babies.

Sticky fingers?
btw - I don't read the daily mail - I heard the story on the BBC morning news. It must be getting slow news time though, becasue you get some extraordinary "filler" stories.

I didn't realise that all people under 30 were completely tolerant of all cultural/racial/sexual differences - should we conduct a straw poll?

As an interesting aside. I was speaking to a neighbour who's little boy goes to school with my son - the family are from saudi arabia - we were talking about a house in the next street that had recently sold and she mentioned that they knew the new owners as they attended the same mosque - I commented that it would be nice for her to have some friends nearby. She was aghast as these people were iraqi and she didn't like iraqi people as they were in her words "very antisocial" and "strange".

I can confirm that she was indeed over 30.
My views are coloured by the twentysomethings I meet at work.

They're also informed by my 17 year old nephew. I like to hear his thoughts because he's a very typical South London lad.

However, he did once refer to Madonna as 'that funny old lady", so perhaps I should ignore his obviously
ill-formed opinions.
You nephew sounds like he has a lot of sense.

Raggy Roman has a particular tub to thump and it concerns his lack of ability to be awarded maternity leave/pay, etc.

He likes to slip this in to many arguments regarding equality of pay/sexes/ Political Correctness...................

It's quite a big tub to thump, too, and it makes a lot of noise; so much so that it has obviously drowned out the sound of the many other sensible/reasonable/explanatory posts he's received on this particular subject..................
Muslim refuses to serve alcohol.
Muslim Dentist refuses to treat a women unless she wears a headscarf.
Roman Catholic Chemist refuses to serve contraceptives.

Sack the lot, I say.

PC is brilliant says sp1814

Was the Britain of the 70s the same as the Britain of the 20?

Was the Britain of the 90s the same as the Britain of the 50s?

Is the Britain of 21st century the same as the Britain of the 18th century?

No...people change. Outdated attitudes get replaced.

Good, Excellent, perhaps now we can draw a line under slavery once and for all ?

Incidently sp1814, why do you want a day off a week, so that you can sit at home and think about Kylie? Are you batting for our side now?
