Why banning Sharia courts would harm British Muslim women

But while the call to ban Sharia councils is often seen as a way of protecting women, many women I have interviewed feel a ban would disempower them, by removing one of the potentially powerful avenues through which they could exercise religious pressure on their husbands or family members.

sharia courts should go...its as simple as that...there is no place in any country for separate CONTRADICTORY laws for separate groups...so all this nonsence should be stopped and sharia courts should have absolutely no legal standing in the UK
how ever if those followers of islam want to take religious advice no one is stopping them..but that advice should have NO legal standing what so ever and be within the existing law of the land
the same applys to all religious groups in the UK..ADVICE YES on religious/social etc matters.. no matter how unpalatable that advice is to others...
but how sharia protects women I cannot see or begin to understand......actually its the same with islam in general which the believers insist is woman friendly...its all a load of codswallop
