Rejected petition ban facial recognition attire in public regardless of faith nationality ideology

We cannot allow anybody to possibly walk around unrecognised, the government has video surveillance equipment country wide, that has cost the taxpayer tens of thousands to install and maintain how can it be being used to maximum effect if the general public can walk around with faces covered,

More details

We have lived in fear too long, Europe has allowed our borders to be overrun with people that could possibly be a security risk to our country, we now need to address that situation and ban facial clothing attire in public, and make it an offence unless it's on medical grounds supported with a certificate of medical authenticity
