Kitchens that are shared between office workers may soon be banned from storing pork products like sausage rolls over fears that they are “offensive”.

The group also suggests that alcohol should not be served at corporate events in case it upsets members of certain faiths.

I think only one group is behind this and it's not the Jews or the Mormons.

We should not tolerate these substances because we need to practice Tolerance.

The offensive thing is the very idea this is being considered to appease the Muslims.

Mohammedans.

Observant Jews wouldn’t use the communal microwave at all ... just in case.

That was what I was hinting at in my remark. Jews and Mormons rarely make a stink about such things.

Obviously people of the Jewish faith, after over a hundred years of tolerating pork, they have had enough.

You mean Jews haven’t received the same consideration all these years? The liberals are sending a message that terrorism pays.

If people just said “NO” and made it stick this wouldn’t be a problem. But the wide yellow streaks down their backs must be adversely impacting their speech center of the brain.

“No” is a simple word. Sometimes you have to stand behind it.
