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.

    They should definitely be banned, they are intimidating and irrelevant in this country. We are a western country so they should wear western clothes.

    All face covering should be banned in favour of face recognition.

    It isn’t required by Islam religion to wear a burka, there is no mention of the burka in the quran. Its about oppressing women.

    Because it’s not only a security threat it’s also a statement saying we’re here, what are you going to do about it
