From: Chris Partington Two dance groups from Bosnia, one muslim and one christian, wish to share the same bus to travel to Alnwick International Festival this week. They can't afford to come otherwise. http://www.northumberlandgazette.co.uk/news/Religious-row-threat-to-music.5487074.jp The Bosnian Government (politics in Bosnia is, er, Balkan) won't allow them to share the bus because of their differing religions. I don't know which bit of government or from which religious standpoint. |
