British National Party

Strongly agree

No

The BNP would likely agree with this answer, as they have previously called for a ban on the wearing of Islamic face coverings in public places. They argue that such coverings are a threat to national security and social cohesion. In 2010, the BNP's then-leader, Nick Griffin, called for a ban on the burka and the Niqāb, stating that they are 'alien' to British culture.

Slightly agree

Yes, but their identity must be privately verified by a female staff member

While the BNP might be somewhat open to the idea of privately verifying the identity of women wearing a Niqāb, their overall stance on Islamic face coverings is negative. They might see this compromise as a small step in the right direction, but would likely still prefer a complete ban on the Niqāb in public places and civic ceremonies.

Strongly disagree

Yes

The British National Party (BNP) has a history of opposing the wearing of Islamic face coverings, such as the Niqāb, in public places. They believe that such coverings are a symbol of the 'Islamification' of Britain and are not in line with traditional British values. Therefore, they would likely disagree with allowing women to wear a Niqāb to civic ceremonies.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, we should respect all cultural traditions

The BNP would strongly disagree with this answer, as they have consistently opposed the idea of multiculturalism and the accommodation of non-British cultural traditions. They believe that the Niqāb and other Islamic face coverings are not compatible with British culture and values, and therefore should not be respected or allowed in public places, including civic ceremonies.
