Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

It would appear that Anjem Choudary has been permanently banned from france ...and he's outraged:D

Let's hope he tries to sneak in and gets caught...

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

I don't blame the French at all, what country in their right mind would want this cancerous carbuncle inciting their populous with his extremist views.
Good decision France.

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

Well said :tu:

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

Unfortunately we can't follow Frances example and hoof this odious man out of the country .In my opinion he is a very incidious example of the bad side of the muslim faith and does the good side ,the majority ,no good at all

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

Considering how much France is involved in the EU i think " Do as we say not as we do " springs to mind

Personaly i would have given him a choice, Back to your own country or be given NOTHING in support here.

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

Choudary is British born which is why i think he is a much bigger threat than say Abu Hamza ,we can kick Hamza out not so with Choudary

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

It should be totally banned, When l see them in shops in send shivers down my spine, If they live in this country they should live by our rules.

Its a sercuity risk, and this country is always being hit, In this country we always appear to be ruled by other people.

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

you're allowed to wear what you want Arthur so why shouldn't they .The only exceptions for the burkha is high security areas ,the same rules should apply as with helmets in banks and airports

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

So because you don't like it, it should be banned? How very tolerant of you Arthur.

They already do Arthur. Our 'rules' say nothing against wearing the burkha in public.

Yes, 'always being hit', for example 6 years ago.

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

I didn't realise the recent bombers in Omagh wore burqas......

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

If you go to another country, you have to abide to that countries rules, why shouldn't they.

Other countries have brought this ban in, so why not the UK, but there again this country is too soft.

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

just because other countries do it ,it doesn't make it right .Yes other countries are concidering it or have already introduced a ban for face covering clothing in security sensitive areas ,not specifically the burkha.

This country already has legislation in place to deal with the burkha in security sensitive places and that should be enough

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

Probably because there's no real reason to ban it?

Re: Ban the burkha ?
 

They do. We are allowed to wear clothes the signify any religious belief. So are they. While I don't like the fact that certain muslim sects (not all do, by any means) require that their womenfolk wear burkhas, they are entitled to wear them in low security areas.

OK, so say we introduce a ban on burkhas in public areas. What next? A ban on crosses and other religious symbols? A ban on colours used by known gangs? A ban on any sort of headgear?
