True
About the only reason I feel sorry for Jack Straw is the stick he got for saying he thought women wearing veils should remove them when they visit his constituency surgery - not least because he's partially deaf and lipreading them might help him understand what they wanted from him.

Mind you, in most other respects, he's an oily little twunt...

The
Hijab is not really a religious symbol, unlike the turban it's a modern tool to cover a woman up, just in case she looks at a man the wrong way and gets raped. They are banning it in Belgium, if it was purely religious there would be up roar.

However don't think your racist for your views. I wonder if anyone on BT3A actually knows a real bonified Hijab wearer...I had the potential of knowing one but my mate turned all religious a la Cat Stevens when he married his wife (cousin) so never really met her in the end.
