So a soldier in uniform gets thrown out of an A&E waiting room .....

just in case he offends someone . Does anyone get offended when they see people in burkas? 
Maybe if we are ever in A&E and we see one we should let the nursing staff know that we are offended. Do you think they'd call us racists? Bet your damn life they would. We'd be arrested! 

Great idea Tony, but as you say pointless and potentially damning.

I've just spent the weekend in Northern France commemorating the fallen at the battle of Loos in 1915 8,500 dead in two days, 31,000 dead over the course of a six day battle, many of whom have no known grave, who was offended then?

Any NHS staff involved in this should be ashamed

Not necessary NHS Motty , so many just being rented in from agencies for lorry loads of money , no wonder the system is breaking down
