This story is about 4 or 5 months old and appears to be a set up

The muslim driver is politely telling him that he can't take his dog because of his religious beliefs, the driver is calm, passive and even phones up to get the fella another cab.

The blind man) is overly aggressive, films from the beginning which tells me it's a stitch up and refuses another cab, completely unreasonable.


Yet another daily mail story doing what the daily mail does, whipping their gullible readers up into another frenzy. Works a treat every time.

I thought Cab drivers aren't allowed to refuse a blind person with
a dog a lift? End of story - boll0x to his religious beliefs

cretins believe what they want to believe
the fact is there are stupid cults and their backers who want to support anything they can about their favourite cult

as the demographic shift continues scandanavian and his friends will not even be able to spout their fawning sh!te as kaffirs they will not be allowed

an ordinary everyday person with a dog won't be allowed into cabs driven by these medieval drivers - the funny thing is that cars are not medieval and go against some of their beliefs  ho ho

Pathetic Britain ...In 2016 a blind man with a guide dog can't get a paid
journey from a muslim cab driver because of a false prophet who was married to a
6 year old 1300 odd years ago Crazy

sorry to be a pain but it is not a religion - it is a cult - but now they have the protection of the law - it is a political movement and should be treated as such
unfortunately we will eventually be locked up for stating this as the demographic shifts

Cant blame a chap to pick up a customer who has a dog.

Eventually these people with demands will be unemployed.

without looking into it off the top of my head isn't there a law

It describes that there may be occasion for an individual driver to hold an Exemption
Certificate which relates to a specific medical condition but that it is not acceptable to
refuse carriage due to religious or cultural beliefs (a view that is supported by the Muslim
Shariat Council).


It's not

Just shows what a selfish breed they are to a degree, they think their own religious
beliefs far outweigh some poor blind person with guide dog trying to get a journey home.

this is 10 x worse than racist but it's played down by the PC brigade
