I propose a referendum to Ban the Burqa in public to be set into UK law

Closed 210 signatures

What the petition asks

Due to governments once again not listening to the people who elect them I propose you hold a referendum to ban the burqa in all public spaces. Let the people decide the fate / destiny of our country rather than politically correct politicians worried about being re-elected.
