It's ridiculous really... Anyone could have ethical issues with goods/produce from particular companies, countries (and perhaps more reasonable objections than some old book + imaginary friend forbids it) it doesn't appear that they'd get a free pass to boycot.

I want to work there so I can refuse to serve anyone whose face I can't fully see.
We are already talking about religious people and their imaginary friends. I think "reasonable intelligence" is already out the window.

WHAT?! I dont get it you walk into a shop, you want some bacon, you get served by someone who is a vegetarian do they then get the right to refuse to sell you meat? NO
So why muslims OR anyone who has religious beliefs?, sorry love if you can't sell me the bacon then gtfo the chair and let someone else serve me. In fact why don't you go work for a greengrocers -.-
"If people don't want to serve products based on religious beliefs then they are clearly not fit for the job" Too true!

I read and lolled. and people don't think that Muslim immigration to this country has caused problems and will continue to cause further larger problems as our population shifts more towards 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation immigrants.
I don't think Winston Churchill would have been very trilled at all.
Some examples of things we do not need in this country
The problem within Is growing.

Shop manager fail.
Just serve the customer, stop embarrassing the brand of M&S and stop embarrassing them for being non Muslim or you are fired. Simples.
This is the hidden intention of these kind of religious rules, to enforce unquestioning compliance of even the stupidest idea and to separate believers from non believers, so you have situations where you can't see their face and they can't eat your food.
Many cults work along the same concepts, sepearate people from reality and they will start to believe any old tosh.

Id say it was fair to ask for non muslims to ask to be able to NOT sell Halal meat on the grounds of animal cruelty, which is a much more steadfast reason than a preposterous belief from an aged book.
Infact would labels on the food packaging for Halal meat that had grotesque images of ritual slaughter be any better or worse than the images on a packet of cigarettes?

If someone is incapable of selling a product due to their ridiculous beliefs, then they are clearly not fit to work in a shop that sells said products.
Absolutely pathetic from M&S to allow this.

Sounds like a reason not to employ muslims to me.
In the end they will come off worse.

Wow, I didn't know that you had to be a particular colour to be a Muslim, you learn something new every day...
