If you read my earlier post, you'll notice that I don't support a general ban at all.
Nice try Will. Read the proposed law will you. It is for ALL face coverings.
With your government intensely focusing on the burqa and islamic women during the discussions for whether the ban should be implemented. Nice try Scot, but your goalpost shift is irrational.
And even then people should be able to wear helmets and masks inside hospitals, schools and public transportation.
If you cannot wear the same clothes you can wear on the streets into any of those places than those places are not truly public and you have a massive issue on your hand. Private schools, hospitals, and transportation may be able to say something but public places should not have said authority.
If it is an issue of identification needed the law should allow for a brief removal of the veil/face covering to ascertain identification and then the veil should be allowed back on.
Again there has been no justifiable reason presented as to why the veil has to be removed at all times in those places.
Just a bunch of fearmongering, intolerance, bigotry, and presumptions that women are incapable of making their own choices.
