Muslim children can't be exempt from compulsory swimming lessons

The Swiss showing some backbone. Britain could learn from this.

"It justified its change of position by saying that society had changed in the last 15 years. Exempting children from compulsory lessons would undermine efforts at integration.

The president of the relevant court said the judgement was not aimed against the Muslim community or against freedom of religion. It was designed to help schools fulfil their task of integration."


Good for them.
