It seems that British law is not suitable for everyone in the community. This is despite the fact that our Laws have evolved over many centuries and can be found as the basis of most legal systems around the world. Dr Williams thinks that those who's beliefs differ from the norm, can elect to be dealt with under their own law.
I have therefore drawn up a list of other groups, who may wish to revert to their own laws.
1) Pikey Law: Though shalt nick anything thou wants, but thou shalt not take thy mothers name in vain.
2) Polish Law: Thou shalt drink til thou canst stand, needing thy chariot to drive home. Thou shall claim that it be alright to do so, in thy motherland.
3) Bosnian Law: Thou shall fight to the death using swords and cleavers, anyone from thine own country of birth, thou dost not like.
4) Nigerian Law: Thou shalt write to others, promising great riches, but needing investment to bring to fruition.
5)Yardy Law: Thou shalt do whatever thy likes, in recompense for no respect.
Obviously, I'm only joking, so please don't start accusing me of racism.
I have to say, that I think Dr Williams has a theoretical point. However, the reality is quite unworkable. How can you have members of a society, chosing to ignore that society's laws and expect to be treated differently. It would result in a free for all! There are many laws in the land that I don't necessarily like. However, I can understand the need for them, for the greater good of society, so I therefore abide by them.

Difficult to comment on this. On one hand it would be easy to write off the Arch Bishop as a stupid old man who does not have a grip on reality. A lot of Sec 136 patients have the same beard and eyebrows as he does, so is that a clue?
Also we can all make a joke about a yob getting stoned or lashed for getting stoned or lashed, but where is this all leading? All the three main parties, with MPs looking worried, have been very quick to denounce what he said,but the Arch bishops comments will be seized on by the 'enemy within' and unless a line is drawn in the sand, there could be a creep towards British law being Islamified. I am told there are already 'Islamic'courts' in some areas that sort out domestic type problems and mediate disagreements between muslim people - at the moment.I think we can all see what could be around the corner and Europe and Human Rights Act do not have a good reputation for making sensible judgements
I went to his website and emailed him all my thoughts about his insane ideas including the suggestion he takes a very long walk in an easterly direction and takes others of his views back to where they come from.
I have to say at this stage, moving towards Islam is a bad move.
