Belgium muslims demand ban on christmas tree's and Easter egg's
This item updates item 'On the Shariah'

ANTWERP – "If headscarves are banned for employees who work at the desk at city services in order to guarantee neutrality of services, then we demand that no Christmas trees be set up in city buildings and that no Easter eggs be given out." Antwerp trade union representative Badia Miri said this on Wednesday in the Gazet van Antwerpen.

Miri is one of the seven Muslim women who were forced to remove their headscarves if they wanted to continue working at the desk. Three of the seven staff members of the city of Antwerp who wore headscarves agreed to stop wearing one. Different positions - not involving contact with the public - were found for the others. No one was dismissed. There is still opposition to the dress code however, which came into effect in March. The seven Muslim women are now urging that "neutrality of service provision be actually enforced."

"The Antwerp city government says that neutrality is endangered if staff wear a cross or headscarf," says Miri. "But in our experience action has only been taken against the Muslim women. If the city government is really concerned about neutrality, then Christmas trees and Easter eggs should no longer be allowed at work. We are asking that a contact point be set up to report all violations of the dress code."

  • "Belgium Muslims demand..."

    Wrong. One person from a trade Union (we all know how troublesome they are) made a point about double standards. Let's not take this out of context as the chances of this proposal going through is nil.

    True, christian on the other hand are so peaceful... Just check most of the comments in this thread and you will see they ooze peace.

    "
    Prove they are christian!

    Many of those who hate Islam are equally offensive towards Christianity and as you look at the world politico even someone with as limited intellect as you seem to have can surely see that Islam is a force of hate and terror aroud the More..

  • How fragile have people come over something that is just a symbol of being identified as a muslim? I dont think the banning of the hajib is a good thing. Have the christian workers been told not to wear jewelry of the cross? This whole thing is silly, and it only targets Muslim women, and marginalises many.
