No I'm saying that some of the people who wear it have had their families living here for decades, they're British born so it isnt so much a case of their culture enforcing it on them.

For some it is a fashion statement I think, for others it's considered an important peice of religious clothing, I dont understand why they want to wear it but I respect their right to do so.
