QUEUE JUMPING AT THE CORONERS

From a Muslim and a Jewish point of view, their religious tradition should afford them a priority. However, it is the tradition of many from warm climates, including Europe, to have a funeral the next day. The grief of families, travel necessities and mourner's commitments  may all be waving for priority too. One person's necessity is another's option. Religious traditions, that have evolved out of practical circumstances not now applicable, don't present as obvious contenders for jumping the queue. In an equitable administration, each should await their turn, or have equal access to prioritisation.
