Quite simply she has seen Islamic colleagues wearing headscarfs and no doubt over a coffee at break time has come up with the idea, "Yeah, but I bet they wouldn't let a white christian wear a cross" and decided to test it. The simple fact is, the BA customer service uniform incorporates a cravat, with which the wearing of any kind of necklace outside the uniform is totally impractical. I am sure the decision has nothing more to it than that. But no, let's turn it into a campaign.

Political Correctness has at times gone too far (banning of christmas trees etc) and what we see here are the first signs of people getting fed up of it - justified or not.
