Fury over veil rebel legal aid

VEIL row teaching assistant Aishah Azmi is having her legal battle paid for by the SAME council she is fighting against.
Furious town hall bosses have learned they will help to fund the estimated £250,000 to take her appeal to Europe.
The law centre backing her was given a £100,000 grant from Kirklees Council last year. It has since received further awards.
Council leader Robert Light, a Tory, said: "We are effectively picking up the bill for both sides."
