Melanie Phillips: Judges, Sharia and the Law

Melanie Phillips: what part of theocracy does this man not understand?

"Admitting that he knew little about sharia law, Lord Phillips said he had taken advice in Oman and that as a result of this (clearly highly partial and inadequate) briefing he was able to state:

I understand that it is not the case that for a Muslim to lead his or her life in accordance with these principles will be in conflict with the requirements of the law in this country.

But how can that possibly be the case.......

Oman huh? Just the sort of country all freedom loving democracies should be emirulating.

time for a toon; My Sharia More
