Will Britain First object to segregated toilets?

[Guest post]


A self-styled ‘battalion’ from far-right extreme group Britain First (BF) recently ‘invaded’ a mosque in South London, demanding it to remove its female and male signs.

The signs designated separate entrances for men and women, so they can enter for segregated worship as is the custom in most mosques, as well as Orthodox Jewish synagogues and Sikh gurdwaras.

But leader of the thugs Paul Goulding said to a worshipper: “We’re Britain First, yeah? We object to your signs that are outside, the signs for men and women… in this country we have equality.”

According to Britain First, the signs promoted sexism, just because men and women could go through different entrances. But wait a minute... the group has forgotten about segregated public toilets, segregated changing rooms, heck even girls-only schools and boys-only schools.

So surely, Britain First needs to invade these places right?

I highly doubt Orthodox Jewish synagogues and Sikh gurdwaras will be told to remove their signs. So this stunt goes to show, Britain First are merely targeting and terrorising the Muslim community in particular.

A worshipper inside politely asked the group to remove their shoes as it was a place of worship but the Britain First members blatantly ignored him. A volunteer who gave a statement to the press also said people found Britain First members “aggressive and threatening”.
