@c4news: Italy will ban face coverings in schools and cap the number of foreign students per classroom, after ministers approved a plan unveiled by Prime Minister Georgia Meloni. The decree still needs to be confirmed by parliament but paves the way for burqas and niqabs to be banned in school from the 2027-28 school year. It also places a 30% limit on the number of non-citizen students in each classroom who can’t speak Italian. There will be a €1,000 (£860) fine for non-compliance. #News #Channel4News #C4News #Italy #Meloni #Politics

so Muslim countries expect you to go to their country and follow their rules but when Italy does it it's wrong?

Good! They need to respect western culture, or choose a Muslim country to move to.

since this is Italy, it makes sense. Why move to Italy or any other country if you don’t align with their values ?

It is burqa and not the hijab so that’s genuinely very understandable

I’m a little confused why a child that is in middle elementary or high school school would need to wear burqas what is so sexual about a child

If they can ban cross dressing in the Arab countries then why we in Europe not ban burqas?
