This year the “alternate” Christmas speech on British Channel 4 will given by a veiled woman. Will the message be veiled? Wait and see.

A veiled Muslim woman will deliver this year’s alternative Christmas speech on Channel 4, the broadcaster has said.

Khadija, a Zimbabwean-born British citizen who has been wearing the full veil - or niqab - for 10 years, has been given the slot.

The message will reflect a year in which the wearing of religious clothing and symbols have “dominated the news agenda”, said a Channel 4 spokesman.

A counterpoint to the Queen’s Christmas speech first appeared on C4 in 1993.

The spokesman added that the specific contents of the message would be released closer to Christmas Day.

This British citizen has been wearing the garb now for 10 years.

    I’m sorry to say we in the UK have to put up with political correct crap like this from the Channel 4 station every year.

    Nobody ever watches it, nobody ever cares and this year it will be the same. There is currently a massive groundswell of public opinion against the wearing of veils in public which is sending the Left media into full spin mode. As ever the Left always thinks it knows better than the majority !
