A London coroner who refused to let Jewish and Muslim burials jump the queue has been accused in the High Court of breaching human rights because she stood up for human rights and equally. You couldn't make this stuff up.
Two religious groups brought a legal challenge against a policy established by Mary Hassell, the senior coroner for inner north London. She had been dealing with the deaths in her jurisdiction on a first-come, first-served basis.
Jewish and Muslim groups argued that their dead should be buried first, because of their beliefs.
Mary Hassell maintained that everyone should be treated equally, regardless of their religion.
On the 27th April 2018, in the High Court, Sikh judge Lord Justice Singh and Mrs. Justice Whipple decreed that the 'equality protocol' policy to be “unlawful, irrational and discriminatory”.
Yes you read that correctly. An equally protocol has be ruled as being discriminatory because it refused to discriminate.
Our country is now being led by racist idiots.
Of course people from hot countries have a tradition of quick burial. They don't want bodies lying around stinking. I lived in Spain for 17 years. The Christians there have a similar tradition, and for exactly the same reason. But they are not in a hot country now, they are here, so they should adopt our traditions.
Because of the climate Spanish bin lorries call every day. So following the logic of this decision, should immigrants from hot countries get their bins emptied more often than everyone else? I don't think so.
Here's a great idea. I am an old codger so maybe I will start a new religion, the Church of Codger. The main tenant of our faith is that we are entitled to twice the old age pension of everyone else. I would love to take that before the same two stupid judges just to see how consistent they would be.
Britain needs a law making it illegal for anyone to discriminate against, or in favour of, any person or group on the basis of their race, religion or gender.
Actually we already have such a law, The Equally Act (2010) but it is only being applied selectively. Government must give instructions to the courts that they have to treat everyone the same regardless of race, religion or gender.
We can build a fairer would. I show you how in my new book, Spread The Love and Change Your World.
