In the same news I see colleges are introducing state of the art face recognition technology to heighten security at colleges. How, pray tell, is that going to work with burkha wearing students???

Glad to see that a female muslim estate agent took her muslim boss to court because he insisted she wear a head scarf at work (his own wife and daughters are forced to wear burkhas). She won £13,567 payout for discrimination since he did not require this of non muslim workers. He also harrassed her by saying she had not been brought up properly and that she had been given "too much freedom" when she was growing up.

Seriously, why are we letting people into this country with such sexist and medieval attitudes and beliefs about women and, worse still, allowing them to continue demeaning and subjugating women in ways that are unacceptable and actually illegal for the rest of us?

Took a look for that article and guess where I've found it - http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...wear-veil.html

If the Daily Mail haven't lost all credibility yet, then I dont what they have to do to make it happen.
