Pupil refused to wear uniform of 'non-believers' By Joshua Rozenberg, Legal Editor (Filed: 08/02/2006)
A Muslim schoolgirl refused to wear school uniform because she was not prepared to dress in the same clothes as "non-believers", Britain's highest civil court was told yesterday.
Five law lords were hearing an appeal by Denbigh High School, Luton, against an earlier ruling that Shabina Begum, 17, had been denied the right to manifest her religion under Article 9 of the Human Rights Convention.
She was sent home in September 2002 when she insisted on wearing a jilbab, a full-length Islamic gown that hides the shape of a woman's arms and legs. At that time, nearly 80 per cent of the school's pupils were Muslim.

This should test if we have learned anything from recent months.
If she doesn't want to wear the uniform, she should take a hike and go back to Pakistan
You should have heard the bile and venom she spouted in front of the camera's ..... Even my lovely liberal dad was taken aback and said enough is enough!
Ironically I am watching one of those Night of the Living Dead movies on the TV (can't sleep tonight).
Seeing the maniacal zombies chasing after humans with fire in the background is all too reminiscent of current Islamic events.
Note: one Cherrie Blair defended this schoolgirl.
Tony Blair's wife? Say it ain't so!

Oh I'll try to fix that - no sorry it is true, she was defended by the wife of our Beloved Master Tony.
Sorry try this:

No problem with that - but how does it play out with this schoolgirl?
The fixed link works great.
As for the Muslim princess, I'd tell her:
"The only reason you are in this country and going to a decent school is
because your family left a country full of believers...
to come to a country built, defended and improved by nothing but a
whole country of non-believers.
So sit yourself down, stop b-tching about unbelievers and do your best
with your lessons."
End of discussion.
OK, I'd never be able to pull that off.
Besides, in the real world, I'd be fired, then set aflame by her
family and their radical buddies at the local mosque.
But the Islamics leave their hell-holes...just so they can re-create it
in the countries that show them a decent measure of kindness.
Was this the only school she could attend? Is she planning on returning to her home of origin or was she born in Britain? Why is she so rabid? And what does the average Brit think about Madame Blair defending her?
The Blairs are pathetic.
She loses.
I love that movie. It still scares me.

The more one bends for them, the more org@smic they get for their lust to take over you.
I agree. Soon they will be using the same tactics in this country in order to force their religious beliefs on us. You can bet our liberal courts and our wimpy government officials will cowtow to them.
