No it isnt Pakistani, its tribal Kashmiri, the majority of Biritsh Muslims in the north of the UK are from a very small number of valleys in nwhat Pakistan calls Azad (ie liberated) Kashmir - Hindu converts under the Moghuls, where the tribal part is much bigger than than the Muslim part
Most of these peoples did NOT ask their women to wear veils until the Deobandi movement swept Indian Islam in the early/middle 19thC - however, Kashmir, though once under the sway of the Kings of Punjab, have always been hostile towards outsiders.
What you have is bunch of mountain dwelling tribes, basically left alone under the Brit Raj, who then invaded by both India and Pakistan - a shock at best - my main surprise in Bradford was that the English and Asian communties, even tho they had been to school together almost never mixed - the hostility is palpable'
Mountain tribe dropped into another feirce tribal crew, Yorkshiremen - they seem to wish to hurt each other, and it runs deep
