Were you told directly or was it inferred?
I can't see why they would do as such when the owner of this company could be your political doppelganger.
Or to remove identity, no need to ware a helmet when not on a bike and no reason to wear any of the others in public.
And hoodies are worn is summer for warmth?
As said if it's security face covering needs ot be banned, not veils.
As you clearly state in your post, this is yours and many others intolerance to religion with no valid reasons behind it.
It goes back a lot longer than this government, Victorians, ww2 and so on.

Tefal that thread was closed really quickly LOL.
The world has changed and has made it easier for people to move. The word colonisation and the way it is used when discussing immigration is purely to stir up tensions in my opinion.
How many people from the UK have emigrated to the likes of Spain and Australia over the years, do we ever suggest we are trying to colonise those countries?
LOL, that's just such a "dark age" and backwards comment.
I recall making a few threads which were soon closed and I was advised not to post stuff like that here. So as you can see, I am endeavouring to respect the forum rules. Speak to JohnnyG.
We already colonised Australia, remember?
You might wear the helmet in public when fueling at a petrol station, as it saves time and is convenient. I don't see any of them going into shops with them on in a town though.
I agree with the hoodies one, it is stupid to wear them when it's warm.
Which doesn't exactly meet the argument of the 'world with no borders' that we arguably live in today does it DD?
You see it all the time as you have to pay which most of the time means going in the shop.
As said if it's security, face covering of any sort needs to be banned, not veils.

Guys im going to start wearing the male version of a Burka to respect my wifes wishes...
Am i being oppresed?
You guys ddidnt know there was a male version? no?
Cool.. a lot of the religious guys who are married do wear it to some degree. The only difference is if its a vull body suit it doesnt cover there face but then not all islamic girls wear full body veils either.
Come on PEOPLE REALISE!
This is such stupid hype and people are being ignorant and falling for it.

I think nothing should be banned at all from wearing, however I voted yes, because a balaclava is banned too in public because it covers the face and I think no exceptions should be made for religion, sod religion !
If the balaclava was allwed in public then who cares, the muslims can wear all their face covering bs as they please. But do not bloody ban one thing but allow the other ''because it's for a religion''

No sorry I meant they do wear them in the pertol station shop, ofcourse but not in main highstreet shops.
Yes I believe theres no place for religion.
I'm unsure on this. I think that, ultimately, people should be free to wear whatever they choose. But that does not advance this argument any further, given that as far as I'm aware, a overwhelming majority of female Muslims detest having their femininity repressed. But in the interest of balance, I do know somebody, first hand, that does quite enjoy it.
I could go down the route of telling you about a time when I was walking around my local town dressed as a ninja, got asked to reveal my face as I was entering a shopping centre (naturally, I obliged courteously). I'm not sure whether I need to finish the story, but there was a veiled lady walking through totally unimpeded. That did frustrate me somewhat.
If I were to argue in favour of the ban, I would go about it by saying that I believe it would not be a ban on women wearing the veil as such, it would be a ban on the male dominating the female, dictating what she is to wear and repressing her femininity. A ban on that is something I would gladly argue for.

Again, in which case, why are you singling out veils, rather than asking for a general ban on face coverings in certain places.
Would you impose you belief on others if you could?
