Bad judgement on the part of the Magistrate. He didn’t follow judicial procedures, so for that he got a bit of a ticking off.

However I would say that the guidelines and procedures need to be altered. In times of heightened security it just does not sit easy with me that we can have people wander our streets, enter our public buildings, freely access our transport system and such, all in a faceless manner. The niqab/burqa may well have religious roots but they have also been used to conceal the identity when committing a crime.

The veils need to go in my opinion. Therefore I voted No.
