Interesting piece on sharia law in the U.K.

Mr Siddiqi predicted that there would be a formal network of Muslim courts within a decade

.Some lawyers welcomed the advance of what has become known as "legal pluralism".

"Sharia courts now operate in most larger cities, with different sectarian and ethnic groups operating their own courts that cater to their specific needs according to their traditions," he says. These are based on sharia councils, set up in Britain to help Muslims solve family and personal problems.
