Clothing is not the issue but covering of the face could be a security issue.

You visit some shopping precincts and you'll find that is exactly what they do.

You've got to be joking on that one.
Personally if find religion oppresive especially this kind of oppresion by having women, (mainly of course) wearing such clothing to restrict there appearance and personallity, and yes there are alot of people who could wear clothing alot better than they do BUT AT LEAST THAT IS THERE CHOICE regardless of my opinion.

I mean, it's not as if women in Bhurkas are a common sight. Not around here anyway.

It's not about dictating what people can wear it's covering the face in security sensitive areas like banks and government buildings ,just think of the possibilities for id fraud and not just from muslims

You see that is the beauty of living in a free society,(or not depending on what they are wearing and how) no one is being dictated to, i'm not saying they should be banned from wearing a burka, i'm saying there shouldn't be an atmosphere of fear by forcing, dictating to wear such a garment.

I thought it was the fact that not many of the 4 million CCTV cameras are actually monitored that made them useless......

Re: Ban the burkha ?
A burkha can make a man into a woman.
you could have a man pretending to be a woman in a girls/women only toilet/changing room.
there's all sorts of security implications involved from just the wearing of a burkha. it effectively hides a person completely.

No, that's gender re-assignment surgery that does that....
Men dressing as women - that could never happen in Britain...
