Balaclavas have been mentioned but no-one would be permitted to wear a face concealing balaclava in a court of law, even if it was one of the new ones in gaudy colours.

Why put a poll up in the first place Cashy in the mode of for/against if you don't agree with anyone who puts 'for' Not very democratic methinks.

Strange questions anyway, should have been: 'Should they wear veil in court or not !?' yes or no ?.. not 'yes/the lunatics have won/no' ? (showing your prejudice with the comment) I would have voted 'no' but can't vote on the negative as it is influenced .. all very confusing.

Re: Magistrate Reprimanded

its not a matter of i agree or not katex, was wondering how many thought this was an acceptable thing to do, obviously 30-1 not many. also trying to draw out these so-called political folk, who NEVER comment on these things.after all the public vote em in, do they really represent us? i wonder.

You need to see a persons face to use their body language to decide if they are telling the truth or not. Something quite useful in a court room.

Re: Magistrate Reprimanded

Would a veiled woman be allowed to keep her veil on if she was a suspect taking part in an identity parade?

Re: Magistrate Reprimanded

I only asked because this woman, a shop girl at Heathrow, Samina Malik, was shown on the news yesterday leaving court during her trial, prior to her being found guilty last month of terrorist offences, wearing a full face veil.

If all the facts in the Times story are correct it seems to me the biggest threat to the security to the UK is not from the terrorists but from a 5th column of traitors in the British legal profession
