Dismissing an article/viewpoint based on the fact it is from a particular publication is stupid!
It is one of many news outlets highlighting the veil issue right now, so should not be singled out. Yes it is sensationalist, but it would be a logical fallacy to dismiss it because of this.

I want to comment but dont want to be seen as racist. I personally feel uncomfortable when i see a woman wearing one. Only becuase i feel they have something to hide.
The karan says to respect the law of the land your in and if the law in this country is to remove it then they need to shut up and follow the law. Or move out!

Don't think there is anything racist about people feeling uncomfortable about other people walking around with their faces covered in the UK.
I mean historically when has this ever happened in this country, apart from Dick Turpin, the great train robbers and the bad guys in the Sweeney?

Seems like she was wearing the veil to hide her shame then.

It was the first paragraph I couldn't argue with. As for the second my advise is simple. Sort your own house first then you can be in a position to judge.

I see our f**kwit government have ordered a report into the NHS policy over the wearing of veils by NHS staff yet this afternoon despite repeated efforts Radio 5 Live could not find one person who either wore on or knew someone who wore one or wnated to wear one whilst working in the NHS!!
You really would think that clown Cameron and his moron cronies could find more important things to waste taxpayers' money on.

Maybe I'm getting the Koran confused with The Highway Code, it's definitely in there, right next to 'let he who is without sin cast the first stone'

Do you ever miss a trick to slag off the government? What exactly are you ranting about this time?
The govt have probably been questioned by the media as to what the policy is and the govt have asked the NHS the same question.
What exactly is the big deal? There is nothing in it to accuse the govt of being incompetent, full of cronies and wasting tax payers money.
And just for you mate here is a pic of your best friend last night, he was an excellent host

No they have commissioned a report into something which is a complete non-event and why? You reckon because of the media... well they shouldn't kowtow to the media! Unless of course it all helps come election time!! This IS another waste of taxpayers' money, it's a complete non story started by the likes of the Daily Mail and lapped up by morons including it would seem Chief C**t Cameron!

Grow up and stop spouting teenage tripe like TDW.
And btw I have nothing to boast about, it was a charity event

Well so did I, but a couple of years ago a friend of mine from Aus was over here driving my car and she got snapped by the Lacashire Constabulary in a camera van. Think we had a thread about it actually.
Anyway they sent me the NIP and I replied to say that it was my Aussie friend driving which of course they thought was me trying to wriggle out of it using the old foreign friend trick. I asked for the photo and it clearly showed a blonde woman at the wheel. I pointed this out to them but they said it wasn't admissable as driver identity evidence and could only be used by me to help idetnify the driver if I was unsure.
They then asked me to prove she was in the country and insured on my vehicle as they had written to her and got no reply... yes they sent a letter to Aus LOL! She wouldn't have replied as she was still here
Now they may have been telling porkies as like you I thought the photo was evidence and was required in order to prosecute, but their arguent was the photo was required just to prove the vehicle was there and speeding not for ID purposes, I have a letter with it in so would have thought it was right!
All that over 35 in a 30 too

You may not mind them systematically wasting your taxes, but I object to them wasting mine. If that's a problem for you kindly deal with it yourself!
Well it's the second thread you have felt the need to mention it in so I think you are doing a bit of the 'look at me' thing! I doubt I'm alone in that thought either!

Hmmm, not sure what to make of this now.
My mates parents got a NIP in the post one day but as they couldn't identify who was driving by the photo and none of the parents actually knew or could remember being caught by camera it got dropped as they couldn't prove who was driving?
Basically they needed the photo as evidence to prove who was driving.
