The European Court of Human Rights has upheld a ban by France on wearing the Muslim full-face veil – the niqab. A case was brought by a 24-year-old French woman, who argued that the ban on wearing the veil in public violated her freedom of religion and expression. French law says nobody can wear in a public space clothing intended to conceal the face. The penalty for doing so can be a 150-euro fine (£120; $205). The 2010 law came in under former conservative President Nicolas Sarkozy. The court ruled that the ban “was not expressly based on the religious connotation of the clothing in question but solely on the fact that it concealed the face”.
Now the UK will follow suit presumably?

It had better not, or we shall have to remove the word "Great" from our name.
Telling people what they can and can't wear is just not British, at all.

I certainly wouldn't have anything to do with a person if I couldn't see their face.
If they want to dress like a circus clown that's up to them but don't expect me to mix with them.

I think it was the Scottish protestants who started off the Ku Klux Klan, so we should stick by their rules and keep Islamists out of Scotland, just my opinion. cheers.

Some advice, when calling to your new niqab wearing girlfriends house, talk to her through the letter box, she how she likes it.
I'd be more afraid of her father behind the door with a machete..
I wholeheartedly endorse Jed's view. Individuals must be able to choose whether to interract with others and on what basis. To suggest that the state should legislate for what people can and cannot wear is the kind of madness best left to the surrender monkeys. What government can choose to do is stop people entering the country when their culture is likely to clash with the host country's.
I WANT SOMEONE TO WEAR ONE IN CORONATION STREET.AND LISTEN TO WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY BEHIND THEIR BACKS
