Unbelievable, but true: MP urges headscarf ban


MP urges school headscarf ban

Australia: "Federal Liberal MP Bronwyn Bishop has advocated a ban on Muslim girls wearing headscarves at public schools."
ABC News

Note: Despite this above, Bronwyn Bishop is not considered to be on the lunar extreme right of the so called Liberal Party, in which she has been a central figure for many years and at one time considered a potential party leader. She is quite centre-right, which is even more scary.

One fears that such attitudes are widespread in that party and bode ill for all of us, whether Muslim, Jew, Christian, atheist or whatever does not suit the conservatives.
