Nonsense aired on Muslim women’s headgear

LAST Friday’s Late Late Show featured a debate on Muslim women wearing veils that was memorable only for the ignorance of many contributors.

Very few seemed to know what they were talking about, with the exception of the woman who had studied Islam for five years.

Those who knew the facts scarcely got a word in; most of the time was given over to hot-headed guests who had strong opinions but little knowledge of the subject.
