      Exchange these women with Irian women who want a freedom from not see. Swap them so all are happy. Why are we give any visa and citizenship to them? There should be a law for naturized citizenship, if you not adopted to our culture, your right is revoked and sent back.

      Stay strong- allowing one will open flood gates you cannot contain, see the mass killings and libraries being burnt in Europe- they thought they can reform them and assimilate but no islamists don't assimilate. That religion has just one purpose to eliminate all others and not by peaceful persuasion by killing, murdering and more. Most of the proponents of islam here are pakistani stooges masquerading as Sikhs (a religion within India who fought Islam for hundreds of years) and had to go through inhuman slaughter of their Gurus (equivalent of Pope if not Christ) by the same Islamic rulers within the subcontinent. And it's not like todays muslim don't wanna identify with those barbaric rulers, they instead praise them- name their missiles and teach school kids about them to become like them some day so that their terrorist religion can be spread throughout the world and all jews, hindus, christians, and other non muslims are killed if they don't convert by the judgement day . Remember these people are not like germans who atleast acknowledge Hitler as evil and reformed- islam don't allow reform and books of hadith follow strict rules for society - if you don't believe go visit Afghanistan yourself and see how many women are free to do as they please or even allow education in today's taliban regime.

The deaf community requested that people serving customers be provided with transparent masks. In some (not enough) instances this was done. Had my mother been alive during that time and could not see through a mask to lipread she would have requested a person with a transparent mask to serve her if possible, and if it was not possible she would have been unable to communicate, just as she was when faced with an assistant wearing a veil. That would have happened regardless of the race of the person. Before you scream racism in all cases try thinking.

Compare to other countries like Islamic ones, in Saudi Arabia you can't practice any other religion except Islam publicly and other religious buildings such as Christian churches are banned. Overall point, UK is secular and there is big religious freedom - however, there must be balance and if most of the population feels unsafe because of the niqab then it is perfectly acceptable for it to be banned.

    As an Oghuz Turk, I would like to say this: The Ottoman Empire ruled the countries in the Middle East for 500 years. None of them adopted Turkish culture. And he didn't respect that. They have a god named Allah and they live and die according to his rules. The man has complete dominance over the woman. If he opposes it, there is a provision in the Quran that will kill him. Every Muslim knows this verse. Surah Anfal 39. Fight them until the religion becomes entirely the religion of Allah. They take great pleasure in damaging public property at the slightest rebellion. It seems that the British people will learn this the hard way, at a great cost. Thank you

    What is so interesting to me about this subject is that many countries around the world where Muslims are immigrating to are having difficulty with the Muslims integrating into the cultures they have chosen and asked to be a part of but fail to consider that culture and do nothing to ease their own way, or the way of the citizens of that country. In short, they have no consideration for the culture they are asking to belong to and expect instead to be accommodated. This is why so many countries are now slamming their doors shut to Muslims and even deporting them. They must consider that their way of being is very foreign to non-Muslim cultures and it is they who must adapt, not the citizens of the countries that are allowing them in.

    I happened upon this video by chance. This was 10 years ago. I do not think multiculturalism has worked out well for Western society. Since there have been quite a few Jihadist incidents in Western cities, I would venture to say many people who are not Muslim would be frightened if they saw a person wearing a full burka a hajib and a niqab with only their eyes visible. This might work well for Muslim women in traditional Muslim countrues where this type of dress is the norm, but not in mainstream Western society. Whatever happened to When in Rome do as the Roman's do? I think respecting the norms of a society puts the majority of the people more at ease. Furthermore, as far as schools are concerned, educators found that certain types of garb are distractinfg to the students and incite behavioral problems. Hence, uniforms for students are now becoming more of the norm.

    If these Muslim woman are free to wear the niqab then Christian's should not be prevented from wearing a Crucifix as a sign of their faith, this is a Christian Country but we are not supposed to show a representation of our faith in case it offends other minorities but it does not matter if we are offended by the niqab we have to accept it

      It's an insult to Britain to come dressed this way. Our women would have to cover up to go to Saudi Arabia.

      George England absolutely. It should be a two way thing. It's not that europeans feel uneasy in Saudi Arabia so it's not to do with racism. I agree with you mate.

    No it shouldn't. If you choose to wear it then go to another country. Sick of seeing these people hiding their faces. It being 'normal' in East London is disgusting. If the law can say you have to wear a face mask then it can be law not to wear one. British society says we show our faces .. I don't know if I'm right or not but this is Britain.
    If we don't stand up to these people then our country is lost.

    Wearing a niqab is against face to face communication, its repressive to women whether they choose or not to wear it in such circumstances and is basically anti British. It’s also something I regret and am offended at because it goes counter to these communication ideals of British people. You can’t know if someone is smiling for example or other body language. I also find it an expression of hiding and actually shutting down ones personality. I would not ban it, but certainly at work, in schools, courts, banks and public and private places it should not be allowed and be discouraged and it should be ok for restaurants or supermarkets to ask people to take it off eg for cctv camera and public safety purposes etc, free of fear of any discrimination. It should be for everyone else to discourage it and not run lines between our culture where we have enough problems already.

    I think the biggest issue is that in Western culture we read mannerisms, facial expressions and this forms either trust or no trust between people. I myself watch how people interact with others and their behaviour before interacting with them and barring this will decide whether or not I wish to engage. This is how I am in general with all humans and this is why others don’t feel comfortable interacting with a black sheet and a voice, we need interaction where we can see a person. This is not what it means to be human, we are born naked - we should be feeling the sun on our skin, we should be able to smell the fresh air and to be able to swim in the ocean and lie on grass with nature on our bodies. It’s super strange to me that one would hide from this privilege when they can be free.

    At 00:14:20 the woman in the audience talks about fear stemming from ignorance, while having her face covered. Yes, we can't see your face, so we don't know who you are. I saw an interview with a female Canadian soldier who was in an artillery regiment in Afghanistan. Because she was one of the only female soldiers in her division, she was moved into a front-line infantry regiment against her wishes. Why? Because UN rules state that only females can search other females, and when entering houses of known or suspected terrorists, the enemy would often dress in female clothes and full face coverings, often because they were hiding weapons or explosives. So she was asked to search these women, who were potentially actually men who wanted to kill her. And yes there were male soldiers with her, but she should not have been put in that position just because she was a woman, and because Western forces actually try and abide by the rules of war. If someone is wearing a full burqua and niqab we cannot see their faces, cannot know if they might be a threat.
