From the JC:

A gym has frozen the membership of a Jewish woman who drew a Star of David on a steamed up glass door in a changing room shower, the JC can reveal.

The gym, run by Nuffield Health, accused the woman of “offending” other members with the Jewish symbol.

Sharon, a 47-year-old British-Israeli, has been going to Nuffield Health in Willesden for ten years and was showering after a class when she drew the star in the mist with her finger.

“I drew it while I was taking a shower, I just felt like it,” Sharon told the JC.

Another gym-goer apparently saw the temporary Star of David on the shower glass and made a complaint about it….

In their email to her, the gym said that the Star of David had been drawn “with the intention of causing offence”.

“How can a Star of David offend anyone?” Sharon told the JC, “It’s not a danger to anyone and I’m not a danger.”

The British-Israeli who has reported the incident to the police, is seeking legal advice.

"I want to tell them, you’re not the Gestapo, you’re a health club,” she said. “It’s like a fascist society,” she added….

A Nuffield Health spokesperson said:

“There has been an allegation from one of our members that they experienced intimidating behaviour while using our facilities at Brondesbury Fitness and Wellbeing Centre. We’re committed to championing a culture of equality, diversity, inclusion and respect for each other’s beliefs across all of our connected fitness, wellbeing and healthcare services. We take all allegations of potential intimidating behaviour very seriously and we are thoroughly investigating this.”

Should they not perhaps have told the complainant to fuck right off with their nasty antisemitism? Apparently no…
