Douglas Adams: What will you do if a woman is not wearing that dress by her own choice? "For the dignity of Muslims, you have to resist. I mean, there's a place of moment in Europe isn't there in France about the niqab?" He says people like Rushy Daddatty are opposed to full face veils but he doesn't think physical attacks would be good.
The debate "Europe is failing its Muslims" took place on February 23rd at Cadogan Hall in London, in association with BBC World News and the British Council. Arguing in favour of the motion were Tariq Ramadan and Petra Stienen; against the motion were Douglas Murray and Flemming Rose.
