Muslim Women Wearing Veils 17 October 2006 An exclusive poll by Ipsos MORI for ITV's Tonight Show shows that the British public believe Muslim women have a right to wear a veil — but not in the classroom, on television or on the beat. Very few people claim to feel frightened or intimidated by women wearing a veil (14% of the public say they do), but the majority of the public think Muslim women are segregating themselves by wearing a veil (61%) and they are a clear statement of separation and difference (59%). Technical details Ipsos MORI interviewed 1,023 British adults aged 18+ on 11th October 2006. Fieldwork was conducted by telephone. Data are weighted to reflect the national population profile. www.ipsos-mori.com
