Britain’s two-tier burqa ban

The arrest of a niqab-clad anti-migration protester exposes the brazen hypocrisy of the crackdown on face coverings.

True to their word, Hampshire Police have wasted no time in cracking down on ‘masked’ protesters. In Portsmouth last weekend, a self-proclaimed ‘gender-fluid Muslim convert’ wearing a burqa was detained, arrested and charged for allegedly refusing to reveal his (or her, or their) identity at an anti-immigration rally. The individual is due to appear at the Portsmouth Magistrates’ Court today.
