I keep seeing this thread title on the FT homepage and it reminds me of the disconnect between the title and reality at Paris airport. Paris airport does not bar muslim staff. A fraction of the muslim staff members and some other non-muslim staff members at Paris-CDG airport have lost their security-related clearance. The rest of Paris airport muslim staff continue to work there -- although a strike protesting local government discrimination isn't off the table.

For once again the unions are protesting. More seriously, glad to see the unions still stand by their muslim union members in the absence of a trial showing wrongdoing.
