A real chancer

Apr 4 2008

MUSLIM Bushra Noah, 19, seeks £35,000 in damages from a London hairdressing salon owner who turned her down for a job because she wouldn't take off her headscarf.

Mrs Noah, who's been rejected for 20 other posts, seems unable to understand that a hairstylist needs to show clients a shining head of glossy hair, expertly treated. She is a gold-digger, hiding behind religion and brings shame on Islam.

If you want to see the true face of young British Muslims, watch Commonwealth boxing champion Amir Khan - red, white and blue shorts and all. This young Muslim warms the cockles of the heart.
