www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-28106900and before anybody says anything - I have many Muslim friends. Personally I would like to see the ban on the full veil introduced here. Showing your face shows respect to who you're communicating with. Covering up demeans woman.

It's about security a terror suspect from the London underground bombings left the country dressed in a burka and we had no power to stop her(him) as a matter of security this law should be upheld across Europe!
You want to live in Europe your more than welcome but as for the for the rest of Europe you abide by our European laws just like if we went to their country we'd abide by their laws!

About time too. Utter disgrace that people hide behind such things. I want to see who I'm talking too, not peering at someone through a letter box aperture.

Isn't the French law not so much about the Muslim veil (though obviously targeted) but a law on covering your face in public

Not really as a rule we don't normally wears clothes on our face and when we do a scarf ,balaclava if you are asked to remove it by an authoritative person you do no problems UNLESS your hiding something!

In banks and similar places there is clear signage to remove helmets and scarves. Even our offy has a sign up. No one complains about it. Ban the veil (vale?? )

Ban the veil (vale?? ) I wonder if under 'citizens arrest/rights ' any person can legally remove such religious costume where his/her affiliation to integration is violated by another whilst wearing such an item. In France perhaps yes, but in Bradford perhaps not. We are more civilised afterall.

Think I agree with you all the same, right now British Muslims need to do more to integrate if they want to keep religious freedom and respect, they have to meet people half way on this imho.

However I'm not saying we should go around ripping them off people's faces, more telling then it's unacceptable in our free society. I personally think they are unacceptable in any country never mind here.

You adapt to the culture of the country you're in OR you go about your business quietly and dont impact the natives.
Forcing your own culture on your new hosts never ends well. Well done to France for standing up to it.

We are more civilised afterall. no they can't you can only action a "Citizen's arrest" if it's necessary to prevent injury to themselves or someone else,damage or destruction to property, if they are in the act of committing an indictable offence or when you can't reasonably expect a constable to arrive on the scene before an indictable offence has been committed (indictable meaning an offence that could be tried in Crown court on criminal grounds in front of a jury, wearing a veil wouldn't fall into this category )

Mate and me were walking around Jebel Ali years ago drinking cans of coke when a 4x4 driven by an ex-pat screeched to a halt next to us and the driver told us to get in quick, when we questioned him he said if we were seen drinking coke in the street by any of the police/authorities we'd be chucked straight into one of their cells. Apparently it is/was a heinous offence during Ramadan, we had no idea. We were usually all (RN ratings) extremely careful when out there, so easy to unwittingly trangress one of their laws.

Well done to France for standing up to it. This^ if you dont act on somthing like this you will find yourselves in a situation of trying to bolt the door after the horse has escaped (or somthing like that). the more you concede or do nothing about the more will get conceded i think this country is now in a state where integration changes needs to be forced but at the same degree some forced toleration. there has to be middle ground and we have to find it

5 million muslims in france and around a minimum of 350 - a maximum of 2,000 actually wear the full head veil (the french police did an investigation that yielded a number so low they did the investigation again and came up with the 2,000 number).
There 's 1.5 million muslims in England, so if the trend is the same i would guess as few as a few hundred wear burkas, why is this even an issue ?.
Is it really worth enacting a law for a supposed "problem" that is so miniscule ?.
