"We must find methods of allowing people to take off the veil in a way that's dignified."

Just the opposite is true, imo. Strip search them right out on the tarmac. For all the world to see. Make 'em bend over and grab their ankles.

That, in turn, would make them want to rejoin the human race, and perhaps give up on their backward religion. Or it'd make them stop visiting the US and the UK altogether, which would be every bit as desirable.

VEILED women will be forced to reveal their identities at UK airports under a government plan ...

It's about time they did something sensible instead of bowing to the PC-nannies!

But officers usually wave passengers through because they do not have the time to check everyone.

Perhaps you can get through security FASTER if you wear a burka???

It subsequently emerged that immigration staff are legally entitled to ask any female passenger to lift her veil to verify her identity against passport photographs

Wow. Really?

...confirmed that immigration officials will be ordered to impose their legal right to lift the veils of passengers

A site better than a crotch grab to check for gender

BTTT

Well said. It is time that muslims realize that the rest of the civilized world is at least 1500 years ahead of them in all spheres of human existence - political, economic, philosiphical, and scientific.

This is entirely irrelevant. Immigration officials always had this power. The problem in the recent case (if the theory on how he left the country is in fact true) wasn't that the guy thwarted ID checks by wearing a veil, it's that there were no ID checks.

Personally I have never been through an immigration check when departing a UK airport.
