Strongly agree
No
Given UKIP's previous calls for a ban on the wearing of the burqa and niqab in public places, it's likely they would support a policy that restricts wearing the niqab at civic ceremonies. Their stance is often framed around issues of national security, cultural integration, and the visibility of the face in public spaces.

Agree
Yes, but their identity must be privately verified by a female staff member
This answer might be somewhat agreeable to UKIP as it addresses their concerns regarding security and identification by ensuring that women wearing a niqab have their identity verified. However, it still allows the wearing of the niqab, which they might view as not fully addressing their integration and security concerns.

Strongly disagree
Yes
UKIP has historically positioned itself against the wearing of full-face veils in public spaces, arguing that they are a barrier to integration and a security concern. Although there's no specific policy on niqabs at civic ceremonies, their general stance on face coverings suggests they would disagree with unrestricted allowance.

Very strongly disagree
Yes, we should respect all cultural traditions
UKIP has often criticized what they perceive as the failure of multicultural policies in the UK, arguing that they lead to division rather than integration. Their platform has included proposals that suggest a desire for immigrants to assimilate into British culture more fully, which would likely make them strongly disagree with a statement that unconditionally supports all cultural traditions, including the wearing of the niqab at civic ceremonies.
