An MP has praised a cross-bench Peer’s attempts to curb the growth of
quasi-legal systems in the UK, which discriminate against women.
Tory MP Kris Hopkins said Baroness Caroline Cox is doing
“exceptional” work in the House of Lords, through her Arbitration and
Mediation Services (Equality) Bill.
There are an estimated 85 Sharia courts operating in the UK, and many
are believed to discriminate against women and back polygamy.
