UK: Sharia Law Now Officially Sanctioned
From Gandalf at Up Pompeii:
Gandalf comments: So it has come to this, Sharia law is now part of the British legal system, now it is just a question of time and we will start seeing stoning and public decapitations.
Of course the Muslim population will say this will not happen in the UK but you can bet your bottom Dollar it will, you cannot cherry pick Sharia law.
Do I exaggerate I hear you say, I think not, the fact that the decisions of these stone age courts will be upheld by the legal system in this country demonstrates the amount of submission to Islam that exists in our Government and Judiciary, they will not challenge the introduction of public beheadings or stonings.
the libertarians who have over the years campaigned and promoted the Religion of Peace had better look out because they too will fall foul of this abominable form of "justice", indeed they could be amongst the first to feel its edge when it achieves prominence.
Here is the article:
First UK Sharia court up and running in Warwickshire
A MUSLIM college in Warwickshire is running the UK's first official sharia law court.
The Muslim Arbitration Tribunal has used sharia law to settle more than 100 civil disputes between Muslims across the UK since it opened last December.
The tribunal, which runs along side the British legal system, was set up by scholars and lawyers at Hijaz College Islamic University in Watling Street, Nuneaton.
The Lord Chief Justice, Lord Phillips, recently said there was no reason why sharia law, derived from several sources including the Koran, could not be used for contractual agreements and marital disputes.
Cases already heard in Nuneaton include an inheritance dispute between three sisters and their two brothers, a divorce and a neighbour dispute.
In the inheritance case, the men were given double their sisters' inheritance.

Pastorius note: If you thought Gandalf was exaggerating in the orange letters above, you can see that already England is willing to bend over and submit to Islam when it comes to women's rights. And, women's rights are human rights.
The Bishop of Rochester, the Rt Rev Dr Michael NazirAli, who was born in Pakistan and has both a Christian and Muslim family background, said he was concerned that people might feel coerced into accepting sharia arbitration.
Dr Nazir-Ali, who converted from Islam to Christianity, warned that recognising the tribunals could lead to discrimination, particularly against Muslim women.
The Muslim Arbitration Tribunal operates in tandem with the British legal system, and decisions challenged by the losing party will be upheld by a county court bailiff or high court sheriff.
The Nuneaton tribunal cannot force anyone to come within its jurisdiction. But once someone agrees to settle a dispute at the tribunal, he or she is bound in English law to abide by the court's decision.
Mr Siddiqi said: "As long as the parties have submitted to the tribunal's jurisdiction, a county court bailiff or high court sheriff can enforce our decisions.
"If the losing party objects, the winning one has to apply to the county court or high court who will enforce the tribunals' decisions, as long as they are reasonable.
"What we decide will be upheld by the British courts as long as both parties agree to submit to our jurisdiction in the first place."
