Strange Google Earth places - Rodsbot.com ∴ Muslim woman told she must remove veil while giving evidence in court as Judge Peter Murphy tells Blackfriars crown court removing niqab does not breach her human rights. A Muslim woman can stand trial with her face fully covered by a veil, but she must remove it to give evidence, a judge has ruled.
The woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, had argued being asked to remove the niqab against her wishes would represent a breach of her human rights. But Judge Peter Murphy told Blackfriars crown court: ‘In general, the defendant is free to wear the niqab during trial. If the defendant gives evidence she must remove the niqab throughout her evidence.’ The woman sat listening to the 90-minute judgment from the dock in the packed courtroom wearing the burka and niqab, with only her eyes visible.
Judge Murphy told the court: ‘The court may use its inherent powers to do what it can to alleviate any discomfort, for example by allowing the use of screens or allowing her to give evidence by live link.’ He said that when the woman is asked to take off the niqab ahead of giving evidence, she should be given some time to reflect beforehand.

Having been knocked back by public outrage over many of their brethren’s fraudulent expense claims over the years, Members of Parliament have just come up with a new tactic to justify cutting the strings of the public purse.
Their spokesman has stated that they should be more liberally provided for to help the poor, those who have to care for relatives, and to fight child neglect. They argue that to encourage all these people in these "challenging personal circumstances" to become MPs, all MPs' expenses regardless of circumstances should be more liberally forked out. While Britain has seen shortages in teachers, nurses, policemen, scientists and engineers, never in the recorded history of these islands has there been a shortage of politicians. The objections to all this are not simply based on a certain queasiness at the MPs helping themselves more and more liberally to public funds, but on the more basic reason of what MPs are for.
