Sun pays £30,000 damages to Muslim bus driver accused of fanaticism

Lol, blow up the bus my ass. What a stupid reaction.

Stupid thing on his part, but then the article iteself, then again it is the daily fail.
 
Most Londoners are far too laid-back and used to weird things happening on buses that I'd wager 99% didn't bat an eye-lid, apart from rolling their eyes and tutting :p

This is the 24 bus where I've seen the occasional tramp smoking heroin on the top deck and other such delights :p A Muslim driver getting off to pray barely registers on the weird-o-meter :D

You haven’t been on a bus around here then. It doesn’t take very much to start a barney. :p
 
This is nothing new, lots of Muslim bus drivers have been known to stop and pray towards Mecca during their bus journeys. They're supposed to pray at a certain time of the day regardless of what other "plans" they have. Then again, he could well have done it because of this:

get fired then sue for discrimiation
 
Some of the passengers thought he was a terrorist but they did nothing.

This is the bit that confuses me, if I was in a situation like this I would have at least demanded an explanation from the driver. I'm surprised so many people took it so calmly. Fair enough not all Muslim's are terrorists, I understand that but something like this would certainly have me very worried.

Only a word, I would have thought that the boot was appropriate.

More than likely he can't be fired for attending to his own religious beliefs.
 
LOL i wonder if they did this as a this prank for trigger happy tv. i would live to see the cctv..... everyone thinking wtf is going on. guy wants his head checked very inconsiderate
 
Everyone should have definately started shouting 'Our father, who art in heaven!' prayer and see if it disrupted his prayer time :p
