A private members bill will be debated in Parliament today , to decide whether Sharia Courts should be permitted in the UK.

Apparently there are 85 courts currently presiding at the moment , making judgments outside of British Law.
It will be interesting to see which MP's are proposing to vote for the Bill and which MP's are voting to reject it.

 

Interesting that not much is mentioned On the news websites today- it was last mentioned in January

 

If you put a search in Google, the only thing that comes up is this thread.

 

UK Country, UK law, not Sharia or EU for that matter

Get back to you bible punching.

 

 

Well today the British Parliament will decide whether to follow a direction of truth or fall into the abyss .

 

Are you sure about this?


There's nothing scheduled that I can see in parliament today

Devils advocate here.

These "courts" aren't legally enforceable in the UK. Isn't it in simple terms a bunch of people in a club doing by what a governing committee says?

 

Yes this is basically correct, the same way that we have Jewish Courts too. But it's difficult to get all outraged when you bother to look into the facts.

 

Until the "decisions" of these "courts" start impacting on the lives of REAL people, some of whom moved here so as to be away from this sort of crap.

 

I think that law should not be allowed in the UK and if it is they should be tried for crimes under their law as it is in Middle East.

 

How did the vote go Rob?

 

Presumably a simple repost from a daft circular Facebook post design to catch idiots

 

it is a genuine bill

Think it got postponed

 

Does this bill mention Sharia Law?

 

It might not mention it by name, but if you take the trouble to read the text it's pretty clear that major parts of it are likely to have had Sharia (or Sharia-derived culture) in mind when it was drafted:

It could of course be primarily targeted at Mormons, but given that according to latest figures, the followers of Joseph Smith are outnumbered in this country by their Koran-reading counterparts by over 15 to 1, I'm going to say that's unlikely

 

See, what enrages me is that your average lefty woman will shout the loudest to uphold the rights of Muslims...while not caring a jot for oppressed Muslim women.

You couldn't make it up.

 

I think a righty woman wouldn't do any different tbh.

 

Then you'd be wrong.

The most dangerous person in the world, at present, if a socialist woman. Self-centred to a t.

Just look at that pratt at the SNP?

 

interesting question ?
if it was brought in lets say bradford and rotherham would those kid fiddlers of still been locked up

 

I believe that when in rome you do as the romans do.

 

So Christians and Lions in an amphitheatre then
