Father & Son Banned From Public Swimming Pool For Not Being Muslims
The islamization of the UK and the rest of Europe continues. If they don’t stand up soon, it may be too late.
A stunned dad and his little boy were banned from swimming at a popular public sports centre - because they are not Muslims.
The man, known only as David T, and his 10-year-old son were stopped from going into the pool at Clissold Leisure Centre in Stoke Newington, east London.
Last night embarrassed management at the complex said staff were wrong to turn customers away from the designated ‘men-only modesty session’ on Sunday morning.
The council says the special early-morning get-togethers are aimed at community groups who have strict rules on segregation.
But the dad and his lad were prevented from swimming when they turned up at 9am on Sunday.
David T said: “I arrived at the pool to discover that they were holding what staff described to me as ‘Muslim men-only swimming’.
“I asked whether my son and I could go as we were both male. I was told that the session was for Muslims only and that we could not be admitted.
“I asked to speak to the duty manager, who confirmed that this was the case.”
He added: “I asked what would happen if I turned up and insisted I was Muslim.
“The manager suggested that they might ask the Muslims swimming if they minded my son and I swimming with them.
“If they didn’t object, we might be allowed in.”
The men-only modesty swimming sessions take place every Sunday from 8am to 9.30am.
Two websites have been advertising the sessions for Muslim men only.
But a leisure centre spokesman said staff were out of order to refuse people entry for being non-Muslim.
He said: “The member of staff the user spoke with at the time was mistaken when referring to the session as Muslim only.
“The men’s modesty session is not a private hire and is, therefore, open to the public. Muslim men and others can attend.
“Staff cannot ask your religion on entrance and you won’t be refused entry if you don’t appear to be Muslim.”
A spokesman for Hackney Council said: “None of Hackney’s leisure centres have religiously segregated swimming sessions in their public timetables.
“In common with most public swimming facilities, there are single sex sessions, and this session was men only.
“The member of staff in this situation made a mistake… Hackney Council would wish to apologise to any member of the public who was given incorrect information.”

5th Islamic columnists will probably succeed where NAZI Hitler failed to do in England! How said England has become. How terrible Europe is once again turning a blind eye to EVIL!
April 17th, 2008 at 11:08 amAll the stories have been told,
of Kings and days of old,
but there’s no England now.
All the wars that were won and lost,
just don’t seem to matter very much anymore.
All the lies we were told,
all the lives of the people running around,
and castles that burned,
now I see change,
but inside we’re the same as we ever were.
Living on a thin line,
Tell me now, what are we suppose to do?
To England:
April 17th, 2008 at 4:34 pmAmerica calling:
Pull your freaking self up by the boot strap and
battle these mo fo muzzies that want to ruin your nation.
Why can’t people see that “accommodating Muslims” is synonymous with “legislating non-Muslims right out of the picture?”
I wonder if the Brits have any clue how stupid and pointless their country is becoming?
