Fed up student refuses to remove her cap unless Muslim women remove their headscarves

A STUDENT asked not to wear her cap in Bromley College says she won’t agree unless Muslim women remove their headdresses as well.

Caroline Powell, of Sevenoaks Way, Orpington, is attending Greenwich University, which uses facilities in Bromley College, Rookery Lane.
While inside the Bromley College buildings, the 39-year-old has been told repeatedly to remove her cap, but believes that, while Muslim women are allowed to wear headdresses, this represents “double standards”.

The 39-year-old told News Shopper: “It started in September last year when I got stopped at the door by a woman and she said ‘you need to take your cap off’. “It is a small black leather cap but it’s part of my identity. She said ‘you need to take it off, they are the rules’. “A Muslim woman walked in behind me and I asked if she was going to ask her to take off her headdress. ..”

A STUDENT asked not to wear her cap in Bromley College says she won't agree unless Muslim women remove their headdresses as well.

Caroline Powell, of Sevenoaks Way, Orpington, is attending Greenwich University, which uses facilities in Bromley College, Rookery Lane.

While inside the Bromley College buildings, the 39-year-old has been told repeatedly to remove her cap, but believes that, while Muslim women are allowed to wear headdresses, this represents "double standards".

The 39-year-old told News Shopper: "It started in September last year when I got stopped at the door by a woman and she said 'you need to take your cap off'. "It is a small black leather cap but it's part of my identity. She said 'you need to take it off, they are the rules'. "A Muslim woman walked in behind me and I asked if she was going to ask her to take off her headdress. .."

Bromley College explained to Miss Powell her cap should be removed for security reasons. "They said it was so they could ID all users of the college, so nothing can obscure their face. But all these Muslim women are walking in with scarves across their face."
Miss Powell has continued to make a stance, and over the last few months tensions between her and staff have increased to the point she fears she will be thrown off the course.



She said: "If one rule is made for all then fine, but I am not going to be treated like this when everyone else is allowed to do what they want. I feel it is totally double standards."

Ocasio-Cortez Explodes, Blames 'White Men' for Her Soaring Unpopularity

Progressive socialist congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez reacted badly to a recent poll revealing a hugely "unfavorable" rating amongst Americans.  Yesterday, we reported the socialist Democrat was as unpopular as Sen. Ted Cruz when he tried to defund Obamacare in 2013 which resulted in a government shutdown.

According to the Gallup poll released on Friday, Ocasio-Cortez's "unfavorable" rating more than doubled her rise in "favorable ratings.""Half of U.S. adults were unfamiliar with or had no opinion of her in September after her seismic primary win over the summer, but that figure has shrunk to 29% today," Gallup reported."But the increased visibility has not improved her overall standing with Americans." © press But the socialist's rating was 'underwater

Ocasio-Cortez's "favorable" vs. "unfavorable" rating was almost deadlocked at 24% and 26% in September, but now it's at 31% and 41% respectively.But the socialist's rating was "underwater" within the majority of groups, with it being only seen as s favorable among 56% of Democrats."The congresswoman is viewed negatively by most Republicans, of whom 73% have an unfavorable view of her -- up from 52% in September," Gallup added.

Ocasio-Cortez is also underwater in her net favorable ratings among men (-24), whites (-24) and adults aged 55 and older (-22)."But Ocasio-Cortez did not take well to the news and immediately chose to play the victim."

If you want to know what subconscious bias looks like, it’s a headline saying 'AOC is underwater with every group EXCEPT women, nonwhites, and 18-34-year-olds,'" Ocasio-Cortez tweeted."So older, conservative white men are considered 'everyone,' and everyone else is discounted as an exception. Cool" 

"The reason people know more is bc Fox News has turned into 'AOC TMZ' (no offense to TMZ), so awareness is growing w/ GOPers. @JaneMayerNYer has reported deeply on this propaganda machine + it will be aimed at any Dem they want," Ocasio-Cortez added."Nothing changes that. We can’t be scared by that."

"Nothing changes that. We can’t be scared by that." Avoid Internet censorship by subscribing to us directlySUBSCRIBE TO PUSH NOTIFICATIONS © press Ocasio-Cortez did not take well to the news and immediately chose to play the victim Ocasio-Cortez has been in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons recently with the recent complaint filed with the FEC alleging her campaign set up two PACs to funnel over $1 million in "dark money." 

The congresswoman and her chief of staff "could be facing jail time" if their control over the arrangement is found to have been hidden, according to the former FEC commissioner.She then attempted to grill Wells Fargo CEO Tim Sloan by making some wild accusations, in which he responded by schooling the freshman congresswomen.

During a talk at South by Southwest Conference & Festival in Austin, Ocasio-Cortez insisted American workers should be "excited" about losing their jobs to robots before calling for 90% taxes on corporations.

A CNBC report from the 5th of March showed the socialist congresswoman was already taking aim at 'white men' even before her recent tirade."I know when I was growing up, I didn't see any women like me in positions of leadership," she told Girls Who Code founder Reshma Saujani in February."

And so when you're only seeing white dudes just like, running the world, you think you need to act like a white dude to run the world.""The problem is that mold wasn't made for you," Ocasio-Cortez said."And so even if you try the hardest at being that, you will not be as good as someone who is just that already."It seems she will never learn.

FOX WANTS JUDGE JEANINE BACK . Judge Hesitating FOX or OAN ?

Judge Jeanine Pirro Got an offer from  One America News After Fox News pulls her show after her Islamophobic remarks.
Jeanine Pirro, the Fox News host who made Islamophobic comments about a Muslim Congress member, has been unexpectedly yanked off the air. And now one of her most powerful defenders — the president of the United States — is railing against the network.

Justice With Judge Jeanine was missing from its usual Saturday time slot at 9 pm on Fox News, coming just one week after Pirro questioned whether Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) was loyal to the United States because she wears a hijab.

In response, Fox News took the rare move of publicly condemning one of its own anchors. But Pirro has refused to apologize, saying that she never explicitly called Omar “un-American.”

And now President Donald Trump is injecting himself into the controversy in defense of Pirro. “Fox ... must stay strong and fight back with vigor. Stop working soooo hard on being politically correct, which will only bring you down, and continue to fight for our Country,” he tweeted on Sunday.

Donald J. Trump

✔@realDonaldTrump

....to the people that got you there. Keep fighting for Tucker, and fight hard for @JudgeJeanine. Your competitors are jealous - they all want what you’ve got - NUMBER ONE. Don’t hand it to them on a silver platter. They can’t beat you, you can only beat yourselves!

Fox News has not said when Pirro will be returning to the network. “We’re not commenting on internal scheduling matters,” a spokesperson said in a statement.

Pirro’s program is one of the network’s top weekend shows. But last week’s monologue drew widespread rebuke, even from top producers at the network, after Pirro tried to wade into the recent controversy surrounding Omar, who had been accused of making anti-Semitic remarks.

“Omar wears a hijab, which according to the Quran 33:59, tells women to cover so they won’t get molested. Is her adherence to this Islamic doctrine indicative of her adherence to Sharia law, which in itself is antithetical to the United States Constitution?” Pirro said last week.

Trump is framing Fox News’s recent woes as a left-wing conspiracy

Fox News has had a rough couple of weeks in dealing with the fallout of controversial remarks made by the network’s stars. In addition to Pirro’s bigoted comments, host Tucker Carlson has been on blast for a series of radio interviews he gave on Bubba the Love Sponge’s show in the past.

Media Matters published a series of clips ranging from 2006 to 2011 that feature Carlson making misogynistic and racist comments. In the interviews, Carlson appears to defend child abuser and convicted pedophile Warren Jeffs. At other points, he calls Iraqis “semiliterate primitive monkeys.”

A number of advertisers have since bolted from the programs. But Trump on Sunday cast Fox News’s troubles as a left-wing-driven crusade, partnered with the “Fake News Media,” that’s out to silence conservative voices.

Bring back @JudgeJeanine Pirro. The Radical Left Democrats, working closely with their beloved partner, the Fake News Media, is using every trick in the book to SILENCE a majority of our Country. They have all out campaigns against @FoxNews hosts who are doing too well. Fox .....

Trump has long favored Fox News as his preferred television network, establishing an at times troublingly symbiotic relationship with the news outlet.
But now that the network has apparently soured on one of its on-air personalities, Trump is already lobbing some thinly veiled threats.

Were @FoxNews weekend anchors, @ArthelNeville and @LelandVittert, trained by CNN prior to their ratings collapse? In any event, that’s where they should be working, along with their lowest rated anchor, Shepard Smith!
