....for guide dog ban.

Daily Telegraph, Saturday 7th. October.

A Muslim minicab driver who refused to carry a woman's guide dog because of his religious beliefs was yesterday fined £1,400.
Abdul Rasheed Majekodunni, 43, fell foul of the Disability Discrimination Act when he barred Jane Vernon, of the Royal National Institute for the Blind, from his PH car, Marylebone magistrates heard.



I've amended it Jimbo. :wink:

and to echo Terrence, Good.

Well, thank you. I copied it directly from the telegraph. I suspected it would be a minicab driver, but unlike JD, I did not take it upon myself to re-write a newspaper report. Wierd thing, religion, how it stifles the everyday lives of people. "When did you ever hear a newsflash about a night of bitter reprisals between agnostic fundamentalists and athiest extremists?" (Doug Stanhope)
