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.

    We fought for years for equality and this primatve face covering will undo everything this country stands for including misogyny and tolerance.

    these have no place in the uk, they are more suited to oppressive states, so do not fit in with christian values.

    they look like medievil exectioners

    I totally support this petition. The burka has no place in any civilised country, especially in the west.

    On security grounds alone these garments must qualify for an immediate ban.

    Stop pussy footing around Islamic medieval practices and impose a Nation
