United Kingdom Politics Having secured a third term, we will fulfil our promise to renew our country and take Britain forward to a better future not back to a failed Tory past. Our continuing success depends on our continuing to pursue a new Labour agenda as a modern progressive party. We will focus on three crucial areas: the economy, modernising public services, tackling crime and asylum; building on what we have achieved to make Britain better since coming to office in 1997

Thumbs down I wear the veil to stop boys looking at me

THE Muslim teacher who will deliver Channel 4’s “alternative” Christmas Day speech says she wears a veil in class so her pupils can concentrate on the blackboard and not her.

Khadija Ravat, a lecturer in Islam, insists the niqab head-gear does not divide religious groups.

And instead of making women submissive, she claims that it empowers them to avoid being dominated by fashion and society.
