#1 Oops, lost my cookie. This one is mine.
At least we'll know where not to shop next time we are in Londonistan, provided the dhimmis haven't banned "Islamophobic American agitators" by then.

#4 Rival department stores Selfridges and Harvey Nichols said they had no problem with service personnel entering their stores in uniform.

End of story. Harrod's should be delisted as a military purveyor.

Personally, I'd love to see a large number of Brit military in civilian togs hit their stores during peak Christmas shopping hours and sideline all of Harrod's staff for untold hours with endless questions and pricing requests without purchasing a damn thing afterwards.

#5 I love the way you think Z-man.
Between this and the following story, I really think that Britian has completely lost its way.

#6 No problem with burqas, though. Just don't wear a British uniform or a cross.

#9 Wonder how they'd react to a bunch of skinheads with leather jackets and chains 'round their waists??

#10 The British military could send a few thousand of their men (all at once, in uniform, and at the hour of opening) to clog the entrances of Harrod's so that they could be turned away, one by one. It would make a very public point and would hit Harrod's in their pocketbook since apparently the store has no heart.

#11 Good plan, AH9418. After the uniformed troops are all turned away, the second wave of regulars can implement my plan.
