Possessing photos of a Muslim woman without her hijab should be made a criminal offence, MPs have proposed. The Commons' women and equalities committee said pictures of a Muslim woman without her headscarf – taken without her consent – should be considered 'non-consensual intimate images'. Such photographs should be treated the same as child sex abuse images, possession of which can carry long prison sentences, the MPs said.
So what if they are arrested and require a mugshot? Oh, wait, we've already seen police cowardice with regard to that, havent we? They'll be delighted to have an excuse.
The proposals will deepen concerns that Islam is poised to win legal protections which are not afforded to other religions under British law.
Concerns that Labour are doing nothing to dispell.
It comes after a planned definition of Islamophobia being championed by Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner was slammed for risking 'a blasphemy law by the back door'.
No, they are planning it via the front door. They've just got that bold.
I certainly wouldn't complain if the ginger growler had to dress the same way for photos taken by her £68,000 a year personal photographer.
ReplyDeleteIn fact, I'd love the media to show all female Labour MPs that way.

Isn't there a religion where all adherents are required to wear those Guy Fawkes masks at all times in public? If not, let's start one.
ReplyDeleteIf a muslim woman is not wearing her hijab when photographed, how is the photographer to know that she has this level of "protection"?
ReplyDeleteIslam should be expelled from Europe!
