An update on this story. It is good that this man was fired, but Britain is changing rapidly, and Uber (along with the entire British establishment) is trying to pretend it isn’t happening. How long will it be before Uber will be charged with being “Islamophobic” for firing this driver? How long will it be before cabs and Ubers in London will be labeled as to whether or not they allow Jews, or passengers carrying alcohol or ham sandwiches, etc.? Hysterical? Just watch.
“Uber bans London driver who told customers he had a ‘no Jews’ policy as he cancelled their booking having seen they were wearing kippahs,” by Stefan Boscia, Mailonline, April 7, 2019:
An Uber driver who refused to pick up Jewish customers has been banned by the ridesharing company.
The driver, who called himself Ahmad to passengers, was formerly a London Uber driver.
However, he has been permanently banned from taking customers through the Uber app for his strict no Jews policy.
The Jewish Chronicle reported that two men wearing kippahs, a traditional Jewish headdress for men, were refused a ride by Ahmad on High Road, Wembley.
One of the men, Sam Adler, said the driver: ‘Turned around, and as he drove past us, said “I don’t take Jews.”
‘Then he hightailed it, just legged it.’
Ahmad then officially cancelled the ride via the Uber app.
Uber apologised to the two men and banned the driver, but refused to pay any compensation to the pair.
The multinational company told Mr Adler: ‘We would never want to minimise an experience like you describe by putting an arbitrary monetary value on the situation.’…

Many of them hate Jews and are bigots and racist. Put ur foot down don’t allow it.
Renate says
It was the only sensible thing to do.
keith Oades says
Too true, however what would have happened if a driver had a “no musloids” policy.
It would have made the news and the Brit government would have charged the driver!
Renate says
Yes, because it seems that the British government is in the pockets of people like George Soros and the Saudis.

If the Jews have woken up to discrimination against them by Muslims they will ensure that the authorities stop listening to Muslim crybabies. Pandering to self entitled twats is making race relations worse not better.
mortimer says
Swallow correctly identifies the real problem here: Jews must generally become aware of the systemic Jew hatred in Islam before this will be addressed. In the past Jewish writers have scoured the New Testament and Christian writings for anti-Semitism. A number of Jewish writers like Dr. Andrew Bostom have written very well about the systemic Jew hatred in Islam.
Secular Jews are generally doing nothing to defend themselves… not even by contributing to the B’nai Brith. If you are Jewish and have not contributed to B’nai Brith, kindly do so now. I did.

…………………..
Jews make up just a tiny minority in Britain and other Western nations. Even if every Jewish person woke up to the threat of Islam tomorrow, they don’t have the power to single-handedly end dhimmitude and denial in the West.
A_M_Swallow says
Money talks.
There is meant to be a Jew on every race relations committee in the country. Where a committee has been missed the Chief Rabbi will have to tell the rabbis to get their finger out and nominate a representative.
Jews are Members of Parliament and have been Government Ministers, not only do they knew important people but some are important people.
Newspapers and other mass media controlled/influenced by Jews can stop pretending only right wing white men are anti-Semitic. This is the twenty first century not 1943.

There are *far* more Gentiles than there are Jews.
Solely blaming Jewish people for denial and dimmitude in the West makes no sense.
A_M_Swallow says
The Gentiles cannot defend the Jews from the Muslims unless a) the Jews report they have a problem and b) stop protecting the Muslims.
This is a minority Vs. minority problem.
The majority can intervene by standing between two groups but they need to know intervention is required rather than standing aside (the current default on race issues).

“Uber apologist to the two men and ban the driver ,but refused to pay any compensation to the pair”
The multinational company told Mr. Adler that “We never want to minimize an experience like yours by putting an arbitrary monetary value on the situation”. Translated into your time lost and poor customer service provident by our company should not cost us any money or set a policy in place were we are in any way responsible for our employees bad behavior. Ride with Uber at your own risk in other words our employee screening process is only having a heart beat ,owning a car and a drivers license .We as Uber will only ban anyone from working under the Uber label after bad behavior has occurred .Uber employment would prove good cover for terrorist, serial killers ,and rapist to stalk people and targets in many cities thru-out the world.

There is so much coverage from the mainstream media concerning the rise of anti-semitism in Europe. Yet, never have I heard about the perpetrators. Thank you Robert for shining a light on an issue most probably assumed was relegated to a dark time in Europe’s history. I suppose this is another example of why Hitler so admired Islam. NAZISM and ISLAM- Perfect Together.

England is lost! The unfettered invasion of Islam and Muslims into English society is a disaster of
Biblical proportions! Muslims demand and never acclimate! How can the English parliament and the queen sit back and watch their soverignity being destroyed?? Pm Churchill is not resting easy today! RIP.
Boycott Uber! God save England – no one else will be able to!!
Rhiannon says
Like with liberals, the justice system is two-tiered everywhere. Muslims and Liberals get preference.

Jews can do the same. the right to refuse to do business with anyone, no reason required – FU
WPM says
Really anyone can not pick up by someone who hires him for car service simply because of the customers religion or race? That,s news to me not picking up a passenger who is violent, in the act of committing a crimes ect. maybe, According to you Uber should not have ban him from being a Uber driver ,he is entitled to pick and choose who get his services based on race or religion or sex or any stands he sets for his services. Makes for real an ideal way to expend and grow your business ,how to make friends and influence enemies .
m. says
correction: anyone should be able to refuse to pick up or ride with anyone – don’t like it, tough s**t

Uber engages people who will be reliable. It is not good for Uber if their drivers refuse to pick up people for random reasons (certainly, if the fare looks dangerous this is a different matter).
The idea that employees and contractors can do whatever they want and that the employer has no say in the matter is *quite* mistaken.
Then, in many places it is also illegal to refuse service to someone on this basis–I’m sure that is true in Britain.

WPM says
“knowledge is power education empower human being”?? When you work for an organization you have to obey that organization rules not make up your own. If you work for Uber I am sure their rules would bar you from refusing to give car service to a persons because of, race, religion ,or sex as the sole reason for refusing service . It would be a poor business motto and would be illegal in a country like England or America. It could open Uber up class action suits if it back some driver decision to publicly state he refuse to give service for that sole reason. There have been class action suits in the passed against livery companies that refused to go into or pick up people from dangerous areas inside NYC.
