Denmark has announced plans to ban burkas in schools and universities as part of its battle against so-called “parallel societies”.

The religious garment is already banned in public spaces, but the move would extend the order to classrooms across the country.

Mette Frederiksen, the Danish prime minister who formed a new Left-leaning government in June, hopes the measure will counter “parallel societies” of non-integrated foreigners.

In Denmark, “parallel societies” refer to urban residential areas where more than 50 per cent of residents are from a non-Western immigrant background.

A ban on full-face coverings, such as the burka and the niqab, was introduced in Denmark in 2018, with those who repeatedly break the rules facing a 10,000 kroner (£1,300) fine.

Berlingske’s report noted that “there are very few students...who wear the burka to school”, as it suggested the policy was more about political signalling from the Danish Left.

Denmark has some of the toughest laws on migration and asylum seekers in Europe, and the issue has been considered a top priority by centre-Left politicians as well as those on the Right.

At the peak of the 2015 refugee crisis, Denmark accepted far fewer asylum seekers than its neighbours and provided them with no financial support if their claim was rejected.

Under the so-called “ghetto” law, migrants can be forcibly relocated from neighbourhoods if the proportion of foreigners there is deemed too high.

Asylum seekers may also be required to give up their valuables to cover their housing costs, in what is known as the “jewellery” rule.

Last month, the government also announced plans to ban the call to prayer in Denmark, as ministers complained that parts of the country felt like “a suburb of Islamabad”.

That policy was also viewed largely as political signalling, with a de facto ban on the call to prayer already in force because of strict bylaws on noise limits.

Western countries, including France, Belgium, Austria, Bulgaria, Switzerland and the Netherlands, have introduced full or partial bans on burkas, as well as some Italian and Spanish districts.

It's not socialism; it's really communism. They use the word "social democrat" because it sounds so nice, but it's really communism you're talking about.

I think it's the biggest threat to our nation there is, maybe since our founding. That includes World War I, World War II, September 11th, and it includes the Pearl Harbor attack.

I think this is the biggest threat to our nation. People will smile when I say that, but the smart people are going to say, "You know, he's probably right."

It's basically introducing communism into the United States of America. There's never been anything so dangerous.
