Look Folks Farage isn't saying the burkha should just be banned in banks and such places.He's saying it should be banned in all public spaces and in private spaces as well.

Now as far as I'm aware there is no ban on deerstalkers,balaclavas,stockings,hoodies and motorcycle helmets in all public spaces and private spaces at this present time nor does Farage actually ask for them to be banned as well.

So this is aimed purely against Muslim women.

“What we are saying is this is a symbol. It is a symbol of something that is used to oppress women. It is a symbol of an *increasingly divided Britain, and the real worry – and it isn’t just about what people wear – is we are heading towards a *situation where many of our cities are *ghettoised and there is even talk of Sharia law becoming part of British culture.”
France wants a ban on the veil – called a niqab – made law. Mr Farage said: “There is nothing extreme or radical or ridiculous about this, but we can’t go on living in a divided *society.”

If say they don't ban them as long as you take them off in public places where concealing your identity is either a threat or a security risk. would they? would that still go against their culture?

Now I don't like the idea of the burkha and think it shouldn't be forced on anyone..however I don't think anyone should be banned from wearing them if they choose.

Until everyone decided to wear one.

Mind I can't see what the fuss is about with the Naked Rambler either.Why should anyone be forced to wear clothes if they don't want to?

Think of the little boys and girls. somebody has to.
