See Ramadam is one thing. Providing their football doesnt suffer, whats the problem? But they are paid big
money and contracted to do certain things. Where does it end? - in a situation like these dickheads cause in
Tesco etc "Oh I refuse to serve alcohol its against my religion" - people like this should be told from the off
"right, there's the door, this job involves selling alcohol, pork, and ham sandwiches" There are hundreds and
hundreds of little corner shops in Britain run by Asians (including Muslims) and they dont refuse to sell alcohol
or bacon in their shops. What next, will a 'devout muslim' refuse to wear the sponsorship of "HSBC" we all
agree the banks are robbing bastards!! But these 'stances' are more about making a political point than they are
about conscience. f**k them off!!
n.b. - Imagine a Christian refusing to cook Halal meat in McDonalds because its against his beliefs the way
the food is killed. Yes, how ridiculous. Go find another job!!
