Muslim women can no longer wear the full-body garment in shops, restaurants or public buildings and anyone caught flouting the ban could be struck with a £6,500 fine.
The local government of Ticino approved the referendum after the Swiss Parliament ruled that the ban did not violate the country's federal law.
Two in three voters in the canton backed the move in an overwhelming result for a referendum, in the wake of heightened terrorist alerts across Europe.
The law which MPs voted for only applies to veils which covers the body from head to foot worn by the 40,000 Muslim women in Switzerland and also applies to all tourists visiting the area.

Screw that water stuff. Fahr....
I agree with you. The burqa is just an outward sign of an inward threat.
Only the eye slit.
no government should be able to tell anyone what they can or cannot wear, and every conservative should know that.
What’s your thoughts on colanders? LOL
OUTSTANDING!
One might think that sufficient. Yet I can’t help but think that sieving the evil would not consume it completely like the fahr... :0)
Salt and fahr....that’s what them Winchester Boys always do!
Burqa was used in middle east to protect from SandStroms. Now they had made this as symbol of Islam.
If you can ban the clothes of Islam, you can ban Islam.
Agreed.
This was a result of a referendum: the people decided, and they are the final arbitrators.
Your approach would have half the country behind bars on Halloween, with some number of Santas on Christmas.
The proper approach would be to require everyone to be able to remove heavy or full body clothing under any circumstance and to allow businesses to ban such clothing.
Nuns would need to be prepared for this, too.
LOL I doubt that. It is very difficult to get residency in Switzerland. We have a friend who has lived in Bern for decades and speaks five languages. He tells us that because he was not born there and even though he is now a citizen, it is difficult to assimilate. He does like it there but it is an expensive place to live.
I guess you have never had the occasion to put yourself in the mind of a liberal then. I was talking about from the perspective of a liberal, actually (BTW, I did have to explain this to Gondring in a side mail so I can understand your caution to me. :0) ).
The Swiss intent is good, but then lawyers get a hold of it.
Thanks for the explanation on that. :-)
Voting does not make it right, case in point the POTUS.
No problem...
There comes a time, though when you have to start resorting to the same tactics these barbarians constantly use against us. You have to be resolute in the face of these people that want to use liberals and our laws meant for civilized people against us.
They (and I will say it) are horribly insane but crafty. The smartest of them have figured out our weakness - our laws and founding meant for honest, honorable people living free together. Most of them don’t have the intelligence God gave a slug, but their advantage is their disciples (if you would call them that) follow the mantra to a tee.
They are the Thuggee, they are the whirling dervish, they are the jackals of humanity. No redeeming value whatsoever. Sand fleas on the butt of a camel.
