Britain adopts Sharia law. Is this true?

Im getting a strange sense of deja vu... i think i have been here in this discussion several times in the last few months....

Firstly can we try and getting over the big scary title and concentrate on the facts rather than some scary soundbites the Mail has been giving out... this will in actual fact affect very few people, and those it would affect would choose to be affected by it, your average daily mail reader wouldn't even now anythings changed (maybe apart from a few attention grabbing headlines...)

Secondly it seems a bit unfair that we for example allow jewish courts in the same manner so why not muslims ?

thirdly we would possibly be better off doing away with courts linked to religion and the like but if some religious figure can sort out some petty dispute between members of his religion without having to go through the expense of a regular court i can see the advantages...

Would it save taxpayers money or just the people in a dispute or both ?

because if its saving taxpayer money and frees up our judges ect. for more important work it is hard to see it as a bad thing...

That's what the lefties seem to be willfully ignoring here: muslim women being subjected to sharia "justice" have no choice in the matter, even though it might look like they are submitting to it voluntarily.

I think that should also be stopped. I wasn't aware that that was happening until now.

Those courts may have been functioning for 100 years in the U.K., but women couldn't vote 100 years ago. Maybe they were wrong in letting these courts operate for this long, maybe it's time for a change before it gets out of control?
