Gary McFarlane, saw this guy on BBC24 ridiculous that he got tax payers money in legal aid to take a charity to court. Why couldnt he for see his problem at University and choose another field of therapy?

perhaps Dr Sentamu would like to expand his theory by stating that Muslims (at least those in the UK) should not be obliged to conceal their faces in the name of religion either…?
he won’t, of course, otherwise he would probably have a ranting mob outside his door, professing gross insult to their religion.
I don’t understand why a female nurse is sacked for wearing a cross to work, (deemed a “Health & Safety” issue) and yet Muslim women who choose to conceal their faces, also in the name of religion, are allowed to do so, when old ladies are instructed to remove their hats in supermarkets (supposedly so that they can be identified on CCTV)….?
…completely baffled….

Does this mean that all those who put their religion down as Jedi at the latest census can now wear their light sabres to work?
