Storm Track Intimidation: 5 Year Old Girl’s Passport Photo Rejected - Offensive to Muslims

From The Gathering Storm

Is there no end to this dhimmitude in Britain? I just don’t understand how they can look themselves in the mirror and not cower from their reflection.

A five-year-old girl’s passport application was rejected because her photograph showed her bare shoulders. Hannah Edwards’s mother, Jane, was told that the exposed skin might be considered offensive in a Muslim country.

They were traveling to an Arab country – right? Nope. The photograph was taken at a photo-booth at a local post office for a family trip to the south of France.

“Because of the way the camera was set up, the picture came out showing Hannah's shoulders. The family had it signed and presented it at a post office with the completed form but were told that it would not be accepted by the Passport Office. A woman behind the counter informed them that she was aware of at least two other cases where applications had been rejected because a person's shoulders were not covered.”

How can the shoulders of a five-year-old girl offend anyone?

You don’t have to answer – you know.

'admonished' ?

no mate: they should be sacked.
and then they should be deported.

i don't care what colour or religion they are, they don't belong in England with ideas like that in their tiny brain.

England: Love It Or Leave It!
