Hello and welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Itas for the 19th of December, 2024.

I am joined by Bo and Stelios.

Definitely got that round the right way.

And today we're going to be talking about Britain-Sheria courts, a possible end to the war in Ukraine,

some good things that have happened over the past year.

And we have no announcements, so Stelios, take us away.

Right, I suppose we are going to talk about the paradoxes and problems of multiculturalism

and the weird images we are shown by it, like the following one.

Oh, I think it is the following one oh I showed it to people and they literally couldn't believe it and they say what's going on up here what's what's happening

and I told them it's basically multiculturalism right so that's the

parliament and he was doing his Islamic noise.

Well, what's going on is that there are several reports that indicate that there are

85 Sharia courts in the UK and that the UK has become a sort of cultural capital,

Western capital for Islamic courts.

Now, from a little research I did, these reports are new.

I found an article, for instance, from the Daily Mail from 2009 at least,

that said that there are 85 Islamic courts.

But what is going on is that the practice of them

seems to be leading towards the establishment of a paralegal system within the UK

that is used by more and more people.

And there are several considerations about the way in which this could impact and could come into contrast with English law.

Yeah, because if you have these Islamic courts, one would have to assume that that means you're going to have Islamic laws
