Is Mise, what you "meant" to write was ... "There has never been one case, and there won't be now because Muslim women in burqas have historically, and currently, shown themselves in Australia to NOT be terrorists".

Thanks for your 100% agreement with me Is Mise.

Poirot, that's such good news. Yes, The PM is intervening and the Parliament House segregation will not go ahead.

If it had gone ahead what's next? Segregation on buses, restaurants, schools, theatres? Yep, it would have been the first step for the religious bigots to impose their bigotry on society.

Commonsense and freedom has won. Congratulations to our PM Tony Abbott.

poirot: Continuing the vilification of a certain section of society and doing their damnedest to destabilise and cause division.

Yes, this is terrible. If I was them, I'd throw a Tanty & a Huff. I'd go back to where I wouldn't be vilified & treated so badly, etc. Somewhere I could wear my Burka, etc, in peace, & be appreciated.

Dear Poirot,

I don't have a problem with Muslim women wearing
the hijab (headscarf) or the niqab (a veil for the
face that leaves the area around the eyes clear).
But I do have a problem with the burqa which is
total concealment covering the face and body leaving
just a mesh screen to see through. However, as you
pointed out this is all mute now anyway as the PM
has had a change of mind.

Jayb...so you like the fact that we should all go back to our own countries before we come together...interesting.

So, when is it time?

Tony...our leader, has sometimes....foot-in-mouth...he does not have fear in mind as you do. This old religion is what it is....old and out of date.

The day the earth stood still.......just a movie I know....but it shows how primitive we really are.

I can only give you facts, with a bit of fiction:)

They will come-form...or?

Its not your mission?

The "WE" have been running this planet for thousands of years.....and while I disagree, don't let fear rule your mind.

Your smarter than that and so are the rest of you.

Show change, that's a real leader.

Foxy, what's your problem with specifically the "eyes" not showing? Thanks.
