But remember: banning face veils as a security risk would be “Islamophobic.”
“Gang who dressed in burkas jailed for 230 years,” P1 News, August 14, 2018:
This is the moment robbers armed with machetes stormed a jewellers to steal £106,000 of stones and watches while disguised as Muslim women in burkas.
The gang of ten men who carried out a series of terrifying armed raids across the north-west have been jailed for a total of 230 years.
The career-criminals went on a 12-month spree between June 2015 and June 2016 carrying out at least 10 raids across Greater Manchester.
They used disguises to steal some £206,000 worth of gems and jewellery and stole £76,000 from an Aldi supermarket, where they attacked a shopper with a machete as he tried to stop them.
Armed with sledgehammers and machetes, the gang wore burkas to get into a jewellers in Manchester and steal more than £100,000 worth of gems….
Gang leaders Christopher Ryder, 30, from Timperley and Michael Gabriel, 30, from Wythenshawe were jailed for 22 years and 21 years respectively.

Motorcycle helmets are banned as a security risk why can’t face veils?
Larry says
If they tried that where I live, the story would read: “Gang Dressed in Burkas Bring Machetes To Gun Fight, and Lose”.
Barney says
If they did it where you lived they’d have firearms not machetes
Ben says
lol, so true xD
J D S says
Aww ..maybe they were just cross dressers that took a wrong turn.

Sidney Penny: …..because the ruling class (not by any sense the nebulous “Left”) are determined to keep the people terrified and oppressed.
somehistory says
This is what can happen when lawless people are allowed to roam freely and make up their own rules.
How were they caught? The guy who had to close his bank account should write to the bank with this account attached and ask for his “apology” from the CEO.

Is this not the best reason to ban Burkhas in the Western World???

UK: Gang dressed in burkas stole $136,000 of jewelry and watches

ironically they will probably convert to Islam when they are in jail to receive better treatment from the guards & other prisoners.

Now, here’s the funny thing – I’m in the UK, and this is the first I’ve heard of this!
David M says
Another press blackout in Britain as per Tommy Robinson. Free speech is dead in Britain, they are controlling the narrative.
jayell says
And the vast majority are still falling for it and believe that MSM (even the BBC!!) are actually honest. The number of apparently intelligent people who seriously get worried about ‘islamophobia’ (yes, they really think it exists!) every time someone says a word against the ‘Religion of Peace’ is amazing – they must have been thoroughly brainwashed and clearly not have realised it because they actually don’t know a thing about islam and just accept the garbage that’s being fed to them. I’m getting the impression, however, that the penny might be slowly dropping when individuals come up against the ridiculous reality on a personal basis and they get to see for themselves what the situation really is.
David M says
I’m sensing a huge unrest incident in England, even civil war when the realisation of what is going on finally hits the masses over many things, including Brexit, loss of free speech & forced Islamisation.
MAUREEN ROBERTS says
Spot on . Also his court appearance at the OLD Bailey has now been put back to the 24 th September , as the government have not yet got their case ready , how long do they need?.The presiding judge did demand that all the particulars regarding the case were to be completed August 24th.

Me too.
Anne Smith says
I meant I am in the UK, too and this is also the first time I have heard of this robbery.
Thee is no doubt that our news is being manipulated – I fear that like Obama, Theresa May is a secret Muslim.
StellaSaidSo says
Theresa May is owned. She is a blatant NWO globalist, which is why she is so Islam-friendly.
UK ‘news’ is largely FAKE NEWS, esp the BBC. I recommend Breitbart London for honest coverage of UK events.

; Told ya so! What is to prevent a man from dressing in a full-length disguise?
Same with allowing men in dresses in the women’s, or children’s lavatories. What is there to prevent a pervert from dressing as a woman to access such areas?
J. W. K. says
Surprised?
