The post you are reporting:
Schools Minister, the particularly non charismatic Ed Balls, staunch ally to the re-energised Gordon Brown, has said that this is is UKIP playing at "unpleasant politics" and went on to say that calls of this nature are completely "un British!"
So there you have it. The government would not entertain for a moment the prospect of banning any clothing to do with either culture or religion. The government of course governs a nations with a huge cultural and ethnic mix, the white only leafy lanes of Surrey, the traditional England if you will, is no more. We are now a ragbag of universality.
Farage though, is still appealing or trying to appeal, to those who still see us all as little ol leafy England. But the horse has bolted on that one already, and is away and galloping down aforementioned leafy lane. Might even trod on a Romanian coming in the other direction!
But although Vic listed out a long 'wish list' of UKIP aspirations recently here on Doverforum, try as they might they are still seen as a party with nothing but "Anti" in their portfolio. Anti European Union, Anti Immigration, and so on. The biggest marketing flagship opportunity they have, is appearing on BBCTV's Question Time, usually in the guise of slickly produced Nigel Farage, and these are his tour de force desk thumping topics.
