Jewish law and courts also operate in this country as well as Sharia ones http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/scandal-of-women-trapped-in-marriages-by-jewish-courts-1765888.html Anyone know of any fundamentalist christian ones?
TM's words taken out of context perhaps? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/05/26/may-hails-benefits-of-sharia-as-inquiry-set-up-into-misuse-of-is/ I was listening to TM's (pre-Leadsom withdrawal) leadership bid speech this morning.
