British police force says it may allow female officers to wear burkas as part of uniform

West Midlands Police said they have “no barriers” relating to the burka - which covers the face as well as the body - as they announced that they would discuss allowing the traditional Islamic dress to become part of a policewoman’s uniform.

The Metropolitan Police approved the hijab - which does not cover the face - as uniform a decade ago, while Police Scotland announced last month that the hijab had become an optional part of their force uniform.
