EU states can ban religious symbols in public workplaces
The court ruling came after a Belgian employee was told she could not wear an Islamic headscarf.

EU states have their own sets of laws, so it's not too surprising to me that the EU laws don't intervene in this case.
That municipality really showed their islamophobia by banning hijabs in this way, though.
islamophobia
Is there such a thing as "christophobia" or "odinphobia"? No? Then stop using this cancerous word.
There is absolutely discrimination against Christians. Just not in western countries. Just ask the various oriental churches, or any balkanoid for what happened under the Ottomans.
And there is absolutely discrimination against pagans. Just look at official roman policy after the fourth century, or any number of northern crusades later.
Religious bigotry is nothing new. Another example is Jehovah's Witnesses, who have been targeted much more recently too.
The fact that christianophobia or paganophobia are not currently affecting western societies, at this very political moment does not mean they don't exist. Islamophobia is absolutely a real phenomenon that does happen to be the current stick to beat people with.
Bigotry is the cancerous phenomenon, not labelling it and opposing it.
How are Jehovah's witnesses being discriminated against??
They were killed in Nazi Germany

They are labelled extremists and banned from some countries, but you better search for it as I can't give an exact list.
