I go to work dressed in a manner which i feel comfortable with. No body stops me for this. Also if there is a ban on niqab does the same rule apply for all other kind of head/face gear such as hats, scarves, helmets, turbans, safety helmets, grinding masks, cricket full face helmets and so on the list is endless.

For those who disagree, in Islam it is a religious duty and Muslims must try to act OUT this duty. To prove this, it says in The Quran, 'Tell believing women to draw their cloaks over themselves' (Surah Al-Ahzab, verse 59). REMEMBER..IT'S OUR FAITH, OUR VOICE!!

In addition Burnley College is on the doorstep of a high population of muslim people and has made no sustainable attempts to form partnerships. Instead the actions of Burnley College have ridiculed Islam and tried tom taunt a peaceful community and religon.
