The article above details Birmingham Metropolitan college's controversial policy on banning muslim students from wearing the nikab to college.

I believe that this ban is not a solution and should be lifted. I would like to see this ban lifted and students freely able to attend to their religious rights if they want to. Religious freedom should be allowed ‘at any time, in any place, or in any particular manner,’
