Islam Watch: Teaching Assistant Fired Over Veil FLAP
Aishah Azmi, Maybe?
Telegraph: Teaching assistant sacked in row over veil
A Muslim teaching assistant who was suspended on full-pay for refusing to remove her veil in lessons has been sacked.
About damn time, but wait…….
Aishah Azmi’s one year fixed-term contract at Headfield Church of England School, in Dewsbury, West Yorks, was renewed in August despite her not having worked for six months. It has emerged that she attended a disciplinary hearing this week, with her face veiled, in front of school governors and members of the local education authority.
Mrs Azmi, 24, who attended the hearing alone, was told she was being dismissed and her legal advisers are awaiting official notification before considering any appeal.
“Until we receive a written decision we don’t know what the reasons are,†said Nick Whittingham, her legal adviser, from the Kirklees Law Centre. A month ago she was awarded £1,100 by an employment tribunal for “injury to her feelingsâ€, but her claim that she was discriminated against because of her religion was rejected.
The case was seen as a test of the new Employment Equality (Religion or Belief) Regulations 2004 and could yet be referred to the European Court.
Yet, when she applied for the job and during a training day she did not wear a veil and she had no problem with her appearance before male colleagues.
Who cares. The Pakistani children she was attempting to teach English were having difficulty because they couldn’t see her lips move.
Fire the Bitch and move on…….
In the meantime, Britain better get a grip on their immigration policies with regards to their former Muslim colonies such as Pakistan or they will be facing increasing political pressure to adopt Sharia law.
Tony Blair called the veil a “mark of separation”
Stay tuned…….
