So, after this, let's have a look at the actual facts.
In Britain, state schools are required to have a daily act of christian worship. Those not believing do not have to attend. Religious education classes are also mandatory in state schools, and cover christianity amongst other religions.
There is no rule that determines whether people can refer to Christmas or not.
It is not illegal to wear a cross at work - your employer might require a specific dress code, and this might restrict your right to wear symbols of faith that are voluntary, rather than required by your faith, such as a crucifix.
The stuff about Muslims not having to wear sterile garments in OR is simply untrue. I can only hope you are misinformed rather than a liar.
My nieces and nephews all attend state schools in various parts of Britain and not one of them have ever had a daily act of Christian worship. NOT ONE. When I went to school we used to have assembly with hymns and a Bible reading but it seems not any more so I don't know where you get your information from and just for the record I don't like being called a liar.
Tell the woman who worked for the airlines who was sacked because she refused to remove the cross around her neck since the airline felt it might offend non Christians, tell her that it's not illegal. You might also include the council worker who had a cross hanging from his rearview mirror and was told he had to remove it. While you're at it include the nurse who offered, didn't actually pray, but offered to pray for the recovery of a patient she was sacked too.
It has been documented that Muslim medical staff are allowed to wear their headscarves in the OR, these headscarves have not been sterilized. Apart from the media reports on this my sister is a nurse and she has voiced her concerns about the lack of sterile garments in the OR for a long time.
I'll also add that Christians are the ones being discriminated against in Britain, you might want to Google that along with the Sharia courts that are allowed to operate in matters of inheritance and child custody even though Islamic law in these cases go against British law.
I have trouble believing your are British because we are all well aware of these facts.
