What next will Muslim women be able to wear their Burkas while serving in HM Forces? After all Sikhs are allowed to wear their turbans.

Why does cultural or even religious bias have to be accommodated in certain situations!?? Whatever one is doing it should be relevant to the circumstances, not given to bias in any form! The Scouts, girl guides and Brownies are from here....we should NOT give in to religious or cultural thoughts IMO. What most people don't think of is....wht other countries...

/// It most definitely is about how we were brought up - politeness for one. ///

Having read some of of these answers, perhaps you should be preaching that to some of your fellow (supporting) ABers?

bloody ridiculous, how can she do the variety of skills necessary to be a scout leader - what is this country coming to, she would be a danger to others dressed like that.

dressed like what emmie? all she wears that is different is a niquab which is a face veil....and as I have shown, hunters wear those.

The hunter's mask comparison is absolutely ridiculous. Scuba divers, welders, sand-blasters, etc wear face coverings at times; however, they do NOT wear them in their daily interaction with the public.

I have no need to preach, I always find politeness gets you further in a discussion.

If others choose a different route well, that's how they play it.

oh, in the Killing of Sister George - when they kill off Beryl Reid in the title role - she lies on the road making faces
so that the onlookers cant say - - - o o it is too awful - I cant look
