Hi guys
I don't think I've ever started a thread in the general forums, so be gentle
I was just curious as to what people think about the vote to ban Islamic headscarves and other religious symbols in French public schools? I've just been listening to a news bulletin on BBC radio and I was astounded by a quote from a French minister ...
Kind Regards

The Bill is apparently designed to reassert the secularity of the French state, but I suppose there's a fine line to tread between that and intolerence. Anyway, I was just curious to know what you thought.French Minister said:Behind those young girls in scarves are bearded Islamic militants
