I went into Sainsbury's.

The guy at the store was a very professional with me. I asked questions, and he answered.

I asked WHEN it becomes policy, and he simply said "only when it becomes law in parliament". I asked if he understands the difference between advice from government and a law from government. He said he did and I think he is intelligent and understands the difference.

I recorded it.

Asked to share by 'you and your cash'

A disabled woman assisted by Kester Disability Rights has been paid £7,000 in compensation by a service provider who refused her access to a service because she was unable to wear a face mask.

The pay-out was achieved through negotiation as there was no dispute that access had been denied, or that the Claimant had a disability exemption. The only thing to be agreed was the amount of compensation, not whether it was due or not.

Refusing access to people unable to wear face coverings due to disability is direct discrimination - no different to denying access to a black or gay person for example.

Disabled people are now routinely harassed in public for not wearing face coverings - frequently given the impression that confidential medical information must be publicly disclosed to justify exemption. The fact that shops and hospitality businesses routinely display "no mask no entry" signs shows how deeply disablist attitudes are embedded in society. If premises displayed "no blacks" or "no gays" notices there would be outrage.

Fortunately the official Government position does not endorse any of this as nobody exempt from wearing a mask is expected to go around justifying themselves. Saying "I'm exempt" is enough. If the response to that can be proved to be discriminatory then compensation is due.

We have already emailed the firm concerned to invite them onto the Show for an interview.

I have just come back from Morrissons in Shefford , challenged by door security
and told to see customer services and I would be left alone.I had no problem with
that,No one at customer services so I started shopping. Very soon approached by
a girl ,i told her I was exempt at which point she peeled off a sticker and said you
need to wear this. I refused ,she was having none of it and called security.
She eventually gave her name and said she was refusing me service .I then left the
store ,she was aware I was recording everything and told security so.
Just phoned head office who said they will contact the store. I informed him if i
am not contacted today I will go straight to litigation.

Just an update on Morrisons, no call back received ,so a letter before
claim was sent recorded delivery this morning.

by **daveiron** Thu Jan 21, 2021 3:09 pm

Further update, just received a call from head office, They seem to think
they have the right to demand I wear their sticker ,and I will now receive
a banning order ,alledging i was aggressive despite it being on video.
So now i move forward.

Ignoramuses! These d1ck heads may win the 'battle' but you'll win the war mate Smile

by **daveiron** Thu Jan 21, 2021 4:38 pm

As i see it this banning order is a direct response to my letter of claim.
which only adds to the discrimination.

the more they make you fight the more you win.

by freeland Thu Jan 21, 2021 5:35 pm

What difference is a f---ing sticker going to make even if the scamdemic/plandemic was even real,sure everyone can see if some one is not wearing a face nappy,is it just another form of intimadition and a badge of shame...

by **LionsShare** Thu Jan 21, 2021 5:38 pm

DI definatly a claim for discrimination.

by **Lopsum** Thu Jan 21, 2021 5:43 pm

step it up a level dave! Its probably because your not a solicitor and they think they can still bully you.

by **Mrblue2015** Fri Jan 22, 2021 10:42 am

They can think whatever the hell they want, I get the impression DI isn't one to be bullied (again, where's the bicep emoji! haha)

by **daveiron** Sat Jan 23, 2021 1:10 pm

Another update ,After the call from Morrisons HO on thursday telling me i
am to be issued with a banning order. Today (SAT) I received another call
from HO. from a very pleasent sounding woman ( they know how to pick the
right people for each job) telling me she is discusted by the way I was treated in
store & the manager would like me to call in so that he can appoligse ,& of course
I am welcome in the store anytime.
I thanked her but said I study law & have decided to proceed with the litigation
route,because if you do not stand up for your rights ,you lose them. She said she
totally agreed ,and we left it at that.

To be continued.

Well done DI, you’re winning (no sh*t) Smile

by **daveiron** Sat Jan 23, 2021 2:06 pm

Next step, I am now going to request a copy of any instore footage as is
my right. That will show them I am continuing along the process.
