Great, now these poor women that are getting abused will have even less help because they are raised to believe that not submitting to sharia law is against thier god.
How does this shit get approved?
I love british people, but I'm sorry, now I hate your country.
islamic law has been officially adopted in Britain, with sharia courts given powers to rule on muslim civil cases.
The government has quietly sanctioned the powers for sharia judges to rule on cases ranging from divorce and financial disputes to those involving domestic violence.
Rulings issued by a network of five sharia courts are enforceable with the full power of the judicial system, through the county courts or High Court.
Previously, the rulings of sharia courts in Britain could not be enforced, and depended on voluntary compliance among muslims.
...
Under the act, the sharia courts are classified as arbitration tribunals. The rulings of arbitration tribunals are binding in law, provided that both parties in the dispute agree to give it the power to rule on their case.
