London protesters speakout on the French ban on niqab and burqa.

Under the law backed by Nicolas Sarkozy, it is illegal for women in full-face veils to go anywhere in public, including walk down the street, enter shops, use public transport, attend doctors' surgeries or town halls. They face a fine and a citizenship class.

Women in niqabs will be effectively under house arrest, allowed only inside a place of worship or a private car, although they risk being stopped by traffic police if they drive.

The law comes at a moment of tension in France, where Sarkozy has been accused of stigmatizing Muslims to win over the far-right vote.
