Italian parliament commission approves burqa ban
2011-08-03
Ay Pee summarized: Also banned will be the niqab or any other face-covering veil. The bill will be forwarded to the parliament for a vote after the summer recess. If passed, Italy will join France, Belgium and a city in Spain in banning Muslim face coverings.

#2  Paul, you aren't the first Brit I've met who seems to me to be very passive on such issues. I know the UK is a constitutional monarchy, not a republic, but you do have elected MPs. What are you and others like you doing to influence them?

If you *don't* try to do so, for sure the power of the party leaders will continue to control policy.
