Jacqui Lambie to introduce private member’s bill to ban the burqa in public places

JACQUI Lambie wants the burqa banned from all public places and hopes MPs are given a conscience vote on the issue.

The outspoken Palmer United Party Senator plans to introduce a private members bill to outlaw the garment, which she claims is an “unacceptable and unnecessary public security risk”.

It would see the burqa banned in public places, but it could be worn in homes and places of worship.

Hopefully we will get to see what politicians support Australian culture and those who don't!

Ataturk had the right idea. Didn't he make it compulsory for prostitutes wear the burqa! Or is that an urban myth?
