I just happened to be walking past the Anatolian Flame restaurant, round the corner from me in Willesden, and couldn’t help noticing this job advert which I think must be in breach of section 6(1)(a) of the Sex Discrimination Act 1975 section 39(1)(a) of the Equality Act 2010*. Rules and regulations are such a burden on business, aren’t they?
As a matter of interest, a couple of years ago the Anatolian Flame was unpopular with one of its neighbours for another slight legal oversight.
*Thanks to “Stopitandtidyup” for correcting me in comments, the Equality Act being in force this month. I’m annoyed with myself for missing that!

Curiously drafted Act.
Thank goodness for section 6 of the Interpretation Act 1978.
Sorry, I know the post is really about sex discrimination, but I just wondered that video is really fly tipping?
We were accused of fly tipping at our offices a few years back after council workers discovered our bin bags on the kerb outside out office. It took some considerable time for them to accept the argument that we were in fact putting the bins out to be collected by the dustman… who did indeed come and take the rubbish away.
I think you may mean section 39 (1) (a) of the Equality Act 2010 (in force from 1 October 2010) . . .
You’re absolutely right! Stupid of me.
