PETITION: Ban the burka! Ban this oppressive medieval practice!

ADDRESSED TO: JUSTICE SECRETARY SHABANA MAHMOOD

Today, in the House of Commons, a Reform MP, Sarah Pochin, questioned Keir Starmer about banning the oppressive Islamic burka.

Keir Starmer ignored the question, but the question has caused a storm in politics and in the media.

The British people overwhelmingly want the burka/niqab banned on security grounds.

The burka/niqab is a backward practice that oppresses women.

We have launched a petition that we intend to deliver to Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood, demanding that there is an urgent public referendum on this issue.

    It is wrong to be able to conceal your identity totally. They are used for shoplifting,men wear them pretending to be women during court appearance.

    It’s not designed for this environment. Plus people use this to avoid cameras and security
