Sharia Law taking precedence in the UK? Fact or Fiction.
Discussion
From the comments I have seen in various news items it would seem that there are now parts of the UK where Sharia Law is being applied throughout the areas concerned. With public notices being put up thereabouts.
Three question.
Is this right and proper?
Should the authorities act to stop this now?
Is anyone in favour of thus being allowed?
I am interested to see the views of others.

Only a few loonies are putting up posters to provoke reaction, the areas are not under Sharia law.Did you read the other thread? http://pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&f...

But who makes those laws?
There will come a time when the majority of those in power will be of moslem faith, it's only a matter of time
That's impossible. Even that most dramatic projections (by people who aren't crazy) would suggest that Eu-27 by the end of the Century would at best be 20% muslim and only 8% by 2030. There will come a time when the majority of those in power will be of moslem faith, it's only a matter of time

You are wrong. That isn't happening. Steffan said:

You're a bit of an idiot. Mr_B said:
There's no zones in London, but there are around 80 ( i think ) Sharia civil courts which are free to pretty much avoid any equalities that have been built up in this country and openly discriminate against women.
Although these courts are essentially voluntary, if a woman is being oppressed in her marriage, can she volunteer out of these court rulings? What about one Muslim from another? How, exactly, do they work? There have been Jewish courts for ome time. I think it is a little odd how these things are allowed, to be honest. Muntu said:

If it's voluntary then it has "no power". Of course that isn't the case within these communities, but that's how government rationalises it. Doing anything about it after so long would cause a ststorm. But that is my point. Would a woman, who is in an oppressive 'strict Sharia' home, would she have the say that would mean it wouldn't count? Are they even heard, and do the Sharia or Hadith notions about women come into play? What is a concern is that these courts have say over domestic violence.
