What is to stop someone, anyone, donning a Burkha under which is hidden a weapon or a bomb and walking into a department store for instance. My point is is that due to the sensitivity of issues such as religion, female modesty of Muslim women and PC who Is going to ask them to remove their veil. It could be anyone behind it.
If an attack is carried out or another crime is committed it would also be impossible for witnesses or CCTV to identify and catch them.
How anyone can think it is ok for anyone to walk around in public areas covering their faces and identities in this day and age is beyond me.

France banned them in 2011. France is now considered the highest risk country in Europe for ISIS terrorist attacks.
As for the terrorist attacks in Europe, not a single one has been carried out by a man or a woman wearing a face covering. Why would they when they have free movement? People are more likely to be suspicious of someone fully covered than they are of a man wearing western style clothing.
