I myself am not religious but I am broad minded enough to respect others beliefs.
I have attended a Sikh friends wedding and have a very good Muslim friend.
Unfortunately even I have started looking upon people of 'muslim'
description working on board an aircraft I'm on in a different way,
perhaps an over reaction however if I don't challenge the cleaner with no ID could it be my last mistake?.How about the 'muslim' lady cleaner (press) who gained a pass for Frankfurt,this just adds fuel to the fire.
Is it right that the British Department of Transport together with the BAA allow people of the Sikh faith to carry a REAL 3 inch ceremonial dagger airside,when the rest of us can't even take a bl**dy spoon in our bags.
There is always one bad apple and thats all it would take if that bad apple on this occasion 'a cleaner' on £4.50 per hour was offered say £10000 for 'use' of their religious dagger!!!.
Far fetched ,yes but the risk is there.
Safe flying,
