a British newspaper reported that :

A mother was turned away from a parents’ evening because she was wearing a full-face veil.

They was told that for the security and safety of children and teachers at the college there was a ban on any type of face coverings.

She was warned that unless she removed her full-face covering, known as the niqab, she would not be allowed into the college to attend a parents evening
She added: ‘I do get abuse in the street, which I just have to deal with. However, I was very surprised when I was treated this way at the college

Yawn.

Is that it?

The full Daily Mail article is more interesting than the snippets you've provided (and it was easy to guess it was a DM story):

You could have also linked to the debate, where one person asks:

Why are so many of you frightened of a woman with a veil? You are a strange lot. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/newsd ... index.html



(And most were indeed taking the 'little englander' line - what would you expect with the DM?)

Ok, I admit I have a second account. Andy, could you please ban my "Berrin" account. I have to say, I lost control developing that account's persona and ended up sounding completely daft.

Thanks for admitting EH. That's what it takes to be a real man.
