You should add Dictionary and a brain cell to the top of you list to Santa.
The country is not yours and you can not force your way of life upon others. So you disagree, boohoo. Pakistani' s form part of the Muslim society, and it is Muslim women that wear the veil (huh!! so shallow). Theses females were the veil for modesty. There is no harm in this.
People like yourself who listen to various stories and derogatory comments made by fame-hungry twats who will go to any length to gain media attention and spread hatred and violence should really sit back and think for themselves instead of joining the flock of sheep following the latest, contagious fashion faux that is against religion and race. There is so much hatred and anger towards not only Muslim's and Pakistanis but towards Christian's on here. Why don't you just grow up and accept that everyone is an individual and that you can not tar them with the same brush. We live in a society where there is freedom of speech, but you are abusing your entitlement and maligning others without the facts.
Basically try engaging your brain before you start typing nonsense, because right now it just reflects how illiterate, shallow-minded, naive and racist you are (BTW, that is not a good combination. Add a thesaurus to your list while your at it).

Why should the pope be allowed to wear a big funny hat when he comes to "our" country? Why should priests be allowed to wear dresses? Why should Jews be allowed to wear hats wherever they go? Why should Hindus be allowed to wear a tilaka on their forehead?
Because freedom of religion and freedom of expression are two of the rights which have not yet been taken away from us.

it's a free country and unlike some where you are forced to cover up here you have a choice and you can use your freedom how you like and really you or me or anybody can't do anything about it but it's better this way than how it is in Arabia for example. and some Muslim would agree with you and some non-Muslim would disagree.

One reason is that wearing a headcovering is probably more appropriate if women want to deal with men on intellectual terms rather than the usual meat market.
If a man is talking to a woman in a skimpy tight dress and showing cleavage, he is not going to be admiring her brain. Are you saying that we should rip off the headcovering from nuns in convent schools and force them to show cleavage?
Also, You may find the following bible passages interesting:
Leviticus 19:27
" 'Do not cut the hair at the sides of your head or clip off the edges of your beard.
In spite of the recent fashions and the "muffin tops", even the bible says that women should cover their head:
1 Corinthians 11:5-7 (New International Version)
5 And every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head—it is just as though her head were shaved.
6 If a woman does not cover her head, she should have her hair cut off; and if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut or shaved off, she should cover her head.
7A man ought not to cover his head,[a] since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man.

You don't have a problem with other nationalities wearing the hijaab, then? That's a start.
All nationalities (and culture and religions) should be allowed to wear what the heck they want in Britain - it's a FREE COUNTRY. And you should thank your chosen deity that it is!

how can you even say that? firstly its not only 'pakistanis' (which i'm sure is the word u were looking for) that wear veils, muslims do. and why does it matter to you. muslim women wear veils because it says so in the Qur'an...and you nor anyone else in this country should be questioning it

you only need to look at the text of your question to to understand that your either racist or too young to understand real life if it's the former get a life if it's sadly the latter then there is no hope for you my friend try and stop yourself using the P word in conversations that would be a start

Our country is not damned by God. Not yet anyway. I don't think that Muslims should, however, be able to wear veils that cover almost all their faces. I don't understand why they can do what they like here but we can't do what we like in their countries. And how come they can wear those awful things but a lady working for BA can't wear a cross round her neck??????????????
