"The policy does not ban staff from wearing a cross. It lays down that personal items of jewellery, including crosses may be worn - but underneath the uniform.
So, which is it? Is it jewellery which must be worn underneath, or isn't it. Make up your minds.

Apparently, the only point that their minds are completely made up on is that they will instantly buckle under to the first and most minimal complaint from a Muslim BA employee about a Christian wearing a tiny Cross to work but will never even suggest that Muslim employees follow the same rule.
This lady's faith teaches her that she must wear the Cross, just as the Muslim faith teaches it's adherents that they must wear turbans, niquabs, burqhas, etc.etc.
An across-the-board enforcement of the ban on religious symbols would be the logical (but not the Right) approach, but they know that if they were to lay down the law to Muslims, telling them to wear Western clothing and no turbans they would be on the receiving end of an endless series of kidnappings, beheadings, and bombings focused on British Airways. So, they take the easy route of just banning Christian symbols because they know that Christians aren't suicide bombers.
