Two misogynists cannot agree on how best to be misogynistic!

Zia Yusuf quickly realising that he is nothing more than a useful idiot and that Reform MPs if given half a chance would do everything they can to disadvantage Muslims.

Maybe when Rupert Lowe suggested they get together, flesh out their policies together and agree their path it wasn’t such a bad suggestion.

Yusuf is correct, it’s equally as dumb as being the Chair of Reform with a name like Zia Yusuf.

The French burqa ban hasn’t ushered in some glorious reconquista and cleansing of France of Islam like the Reform voters want.
All it’s done is further annoy and radicalise the Muslim community, dividing the nation and increased the proportion of Muslim men out in public because those women who would have been covered up stay indoors instead of choosing to unveil.
I’m sure all the people who want this ban because they don’t like seeing covered women on their high streets will be less than delighted when all those people are replaced by Muslim men going out instead.
I can’t remember the last time i saw a woman in a burqa and I live in a very diverse area.
I don’t understand the argument that its for safety reasons?

This is major! 20% of reform MPS have split from the main party line.
Guess she won’t be allowed to carpool with them next time.

Ban all face coverings. Said it in another thread, but i’d gladly see the removal of “roadmen” in balaclavas. No one needs to hide their face in public spaces.

Wearing a burqa is perhaps one of the clearest signs that someone has failed to integrate into British society.
The burqa is an oppressive garment that represents Islamic patriarchal control within a sociocultural system that hypersexualises women. By implying that their bodies are inherently provocative and must be hidden from public view, the garment’s full-body coverage is dehumanising because it erases individual identity and expression.
For these reasons, I see the burqa as representing shackles and chains, limiting the victims’ ability to engage freely in social, professional, and civic activities. I also suspect it is harder to detect signs of emotional and physical abuse in wearers.
It can also be viewed as a form of ‘walking’ religiopolitical advertising, and I think we should be hypervigilant to the dangers of such belief systems gaining prominence in British society.
Though I think in practice it would be hard to ban the burqa, I understand the rationale for the discussion.

But Muslims are not allowed to wear burqas?
