    There is nothing Islamaphobic about saying someone who wears some headgear with a rectangle cut out for eyes looks like they are looking out of a letterbox - because it does - it is a factual statement.

    He did not say he had a problem with it or that they should not do it....

    Unlikely say Denmark

      If you think that, i.e. all hairy at the end, then perhaps you should go see your GP.

          Notice the difference between a Burqa and a Niqab:



          Semantics, but still...

          BTW, this is a letterbox:



          As there are more crimes now being committed by people wearing crash helmets than Muslim religious wear, surely something should be done about that?
          Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

            Do you think the lady on the 2nd left looks like she is peering out of a rectangle?

              She looks like a very unsuccessful ninja!

                Boris said Burqa, that's a Niqab. Personally I think she is peering out of a form of female oppression forced upon her by religion

                  Yeah, and one of the stupid bints nearly knocked me off my bike the other day when dressed in this ridiculous garb. My personal favourite look is where thick NHS bottle bottom glasses are slapped over the top. Then it looks like a startled owl has got trapped in the post box.

                    Why on earth Labour can't come out and say they're mates with the Arabs so can't be mates with the Jews? Would it be nice if we all just got along? Of course it would, but that's not gonna happen so a bit of honesty would maybe make a very boring story go away.

                      Let’s be fair though. Women in this country wearing clothes that cover everything apart from their eyes is wrong.

                      The blokes don’t have to do it just the women.

                      So calling Boris out for this is wrong, calling out a society that allows this kinds of oppression is the right thing to do. And we now are that society.
