The only reason for prayer rooms is the demands of muslims, not any other religious group. So it is reasonable to say the previous norm in the UK is being changed to cater for a minority group that the powers that be are terrified of refusing. Every purpose built prayer room is costing investors or taxpayers extra as the space could be used for something else. The joke is these rooms are often labelled as " multi faith " to give the impression that they are not there for one group Out multi faith room was a stationary closet, they were welcome to it.

Or are architects and planners deciding that it is in the common interests of us all to try to ensure religious observances are kept private? If I am sitting in an airport lounge, or restaurant, I don’t want to witness others performing the acts associated with their personal beliefs, whatever they might be, anymore than I want to witness any other kind of personal act! We provide private toilet facilities and ban lewd behaviour. Why is this any different?

Whenever I see a prayer room at an airport it makes me laugh. Imagine if you are nervous about flying and then you see that. Hardly encouraging. Tannoy "Last call for Dan Dare Airline, will all passengers in the Prayer Room please make their way to the gate". Edited by Badger11 (19 Apr 2024 8.28am)

I've it happening in Iran but not here that I remember.

Every member of school staff has had a security briefing and has security installed at home and work. What a wonderful gift multi culturalism is. That is the standard procedure in these cases. It will be unlikely that anyone has actual police protection.

Ronald Reagan, Pope John Paul II, that Japanese Government minister.... when the assassin wants to get you, no amount of bodyguards can guarantee your protection.

None of the school staff will have been provided with bodyguards or police protection. Unless they've paid for it themselves. It's not like there's any real threat from Islamists.

I have seen it though. It’s not just Muslims praying 5 times daily that I object to. It’s any kind of religious observance.
