Muslim medics stopped from wearing veil
A medical school in Birmingham, UK, has banned Muslim medics from wearing a full-face veil. The Birmingham University School of Medicine banned veils to "help good communication" between Muslim medical students, their colleagues and patients. The school allowed Muslim women to cover their faces during lectures and around campus, but banned veils in hospital buildings' "clinical environments". A spokesman said "we have not restricted students from wearing headscarves".
"Doctor, doctor! It hoits when I do dis!"
"Do what?"
"Dis! Dis! It hoits when I do dis!"
"Okay, don't do dat."
