I do believe this particular legislation will be struck down by the European court because it targets a very specific group of people. Female muslims to be exact. Ironically, one can argue that this legislation is sexist.
So even though both do the exact same thing, France's is OK simply because they were more diplomatic about it? Perhaps for some.
