What about the guy who started all this? Where's he and what about a civil case against him; as he was proved wrong. This BS is astonishing. It was not too long ago, in UK, that a lady worker was sacked because she refused to remove a crucifix while at work.
So what does a C of E priest have to do? take off his dog-collar when not in church? And the flock of nuns boarding a flight? Are they provocative? More likely they'll scratch your eyes out if you question their devote ethics.
Can't wait for the Druids and Franciscan friars to have a group booking together.
And what would you do if a bunch of Arsenal supporters in full kit, and a bunch of Spurs supporters in full kit wanted to travel to Manchester on the same flight because one was playing at United and the other at City. What a powder keg that might be. What would you do if a pax complained that he was a Chelsea man and refused to travel for safety reasons?
It reminds me of a story about a long-haul flight. The middle front row of economy had 3 seats. There was an old lady in one aisle seat and a pompous business man in the other, the centre was empty. The business man kept asking for an upgrade; he said he had much work to do and need space to spread his papers and...and....and. After enough of this BS the purser invited the old lady to business class and said the guy now had 3 seats and enough room.
So the captain could ask all those who did not want to travel with this security cleared pax, who was behaving calmly and correctly, to leave the a/c.
Find me another country where flying the national flag is considered provocation. Maybe Donald T should apply to sort out England. (Ha, tongue in cheek)
