The Case of Sarah Desrosiers...

....taken to an employment tribunal for not offering a hairdressing job to a Muslim lady who wore a headscarf

You may remember the case of Sarah Desrosiers (pictured) who was taken to a tribunal for religious discrimination for not offering a hairdressing job to a Muslim lady who wore a headscarf.  She was ordered to pay out £4,000 as compensation.

The panel said, “We were satisfied by [Miss Desrosier’s] evidence that the claimant was not treated less favourably than [Miss Desrosier] would have treated a woman who, whether Muslim or not, for a reason other than religious belief wears a hair covering at all times when at work” and found that the whole £34,000 being claimed by the Muslim lady, Bushra Noah, was not due.  However, they still made Sarah Desrosiers pay £4,000 for “injury to feelings” on top of her own legal bills and the loss of income she had
suffered by having to attend the tribunal!

Laura Midgley went to meet Sarah Desrosiers at her salon near Kings Cross with a view to offering her the money to cover the £4,000 compensation.  The Campaign Against Political Correctness felt that the situation was so outrageous it would have been completely unacceptable for nothing to be done about this. 

We really need to support victims of political correctness in a practical way and this is sadly but one example of the sort of thing we are up against.  The fact that this hairdresser has not had to pay her fine (although she still had to suffer the upset and stress of the whole incident) is a start.  We are looking out for similar cases now where we can not only try to help at the end stage but also see if anything can be done to assist earlier on in the case.  

The Case of Deva Kumarasiri...

....who found that saying that his customers should speak English cost him his job

  .

The Campaign was delighted to support Deva Kumarasiri too for taking such a brave stand and we very much hope he will continue with his own personal campaign against this aspect of political correctness in the future.  

As and when others speak out in a similar way we will continue to support them too.

If you want to donate specifically for other future cases please just send a cheque payable to “CAPC” or donate via the link below so that we can support other unfortunate victims of this terrible side to political correctness in a meaningful way.
