Dear Dame
This past weekend I read a piece in the Mail on Sunday about Zara, our local clothing store on High Street Kensington.
Apparently, Zara allows men who “classify” as women into the women’s changing rooms.
The author of the piece, Charlotte Griffiths, spoke to the manager of the store who responded: "We have to be very careful, it's a very sensitive time and it's very easy to offend people. We just have to try not to upset anyone and play it on a case-by-case basis.”
Last Saturday evening the popular Indian restaurant just off High Street Kensington, Dishoom, had a two hour wait for a table.
Last Saturday evening the popular Indian restaurant just off High Street Kensington, Dishoom, had a two hour wait for a table.
The restaurant does not take reservations after 6pm and patrons are required to line up in the restaurant and are not permitted to leave while they wait for their table, even if the wait is two hours.
That is unless they are Muslim.
The hostess informed me that the party of three ahead of me were Muslim and so were permitted to leave the restaurant rather than wait two hours in line with the rest of us, "because the serving of alcohol offends them".
The waiting area is near the bar and their right not to be offended had to be respected (although clearly they were not so offended that they still chose to eat in a restaurant that serves alcohol).
Dear Dame....what happened to fabled British Common Sense?
It is all out of balance. An adjustment is overdue. All this equality, PC, WOKE has been building for long enough.
ReplyDeleteIt is the sort of crap that flows from the Labour Party's daft ideas about so called diversity and inclusion. If you don't agree, you're a racist.
