I was just pointing out that people with visual impairment have a different take on the issue of veils.

IIRC the point Jack Straw originally made was about the value of face to face contact, and seeing who you're talking to, and how they respond to what you're saying. He also made a different point about making a statement by what you wear, and whether or not it joins you to or separates you from the rest of society.
