Abolish Sharia Councils

Petition Details

Muslim women are discriminated against by Sharia Councils; it is time this discriminatory alternative form of justice is no longer tolerated in this country

Additional Information

Muslim women do not understand they can have their cases determined by British courts, and be treated as equals to men. A meeting in the house of Lords organised by the crossbench peer Baroness Cox told how Sharia Councils discriminate against Muslim women. We need to protect the vulnerable in our communities.
