      It's interesting that people think if your face is covered you must be up to no good. Like we can identify bank robbers, petrol thieves or terrorists by the look in their eyes.
      Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

              I don't think wearing the Burqa is a matter of freedom of choice, rather the flaunting of misogyny and a lack of freedom of choice. So I approve. No problem with headscarves though, 'cos I'm from oop North.
              These Tessin mods and admin going round imposing arbitrary bans with no come back. I suppose you could complain and get back a "our word is final. if you don't like it go elsewhere" message.

              I support your struggle brother.....
