Shinui Demonstrations in Kfar Saba
by A. Cohen

Shinui Party members from Kfar Saba demonstrated outside a Zol-Poh outlet in Kfar Saba's industrial area to protest management's request to come to the store in modest and suitable attire.

The demonstrators, most of who are vying for the city council on Shinui's list in the city, carried signs reading, "Zol-Poh is not Bnei Brak," and called on the secular public to boycott the chain.

Thousands of Kfar Saba residents continue to show their satisfaction with the store's service, low prices and selection of mehadrin food items by electing to do their shopping there despite attempts at provocation by Shinui and Meretz activists.

The head of the Zol-Poh chain says the company's policy of upholding standards of modesty at all of its branches across the country was established at the time of its founding and will not be compromised under any circumstances.

Most customers show understanding for this policy, which generally fosters coexistence more than segregation. Kfar Saba's religious residents voiced their appreciation for the act of kiddush Hashem berabim by the outlet's heads in insisting on reasonable standards of modesty.
