Britain - Muslim Parliament of Great Britain

I never knew Muslims in Great Britain had their own parliament.

Here is "Kalim Siddiqui's understanding of the Muslim Parliament as "a minority political system".

The inauguration of the Muslim Parliament of Great Britain on January 4, 1992, was greeted by a frenzied attack from the British media and establishment. For some days, Dr Kalim Siddiqui was the most hated man in Britain, attacked by Conservative government ministers and opposition leaders alike, and vilified in the press. But Dr Siddiqui, who had experienced far worse while championing the Muslim case during the Rushdie affair, quickly turned the establishment attack back on themselves. It demonstrated, he said, precisely why British Muslims could not depend on the mainstream political system, but had to organize outside it to pursue their unique and particular interests. It also served, he said, as a 'big bang' to put the Muslim Parliament on the political map and create energy and momentum for the development of the embryonic Muslim Parliament into a genuine community political system.

Note, that is political system and not political party.

According to this site the Muslim Parliament of Great Britain is "now virtually defunct." But as you can see from this site the Muslim parliament is alive and well. The site is advertising an upcoming seminar titled - "Suspect communities: the real 'war on terror' in Europe". Take a look at who is attending and who is sponsoring the event.

The event is co-sponsored by the European Association of Lawyers for Democracy and Human Rights (EALDH), London Metropolitan University's Human Rights & Social Justice Research Institute and the Institute for the Study of European Transformations, the Haldane Society of Socialist Lawyers, the Campaign Against Criminalising Communities (CAMPACC), and the Muslim Parliament of Great Britain. The event is also supported by The Green Party, Stop Political Terror, Voices, Justice and Peace in East London, Peace in Kurdistan Campaign, Kurdish Federation UK, Sutton for Peace and Justice, Voices Refugee Forum, CARF, UK Zimbabwean Community Campaign to Defend Asylum Seekers, Front for Rights and Freedom, Wolfe Tone Society, NO2ID and the National Coalition of Anti-Deportation Campaigns (NCADC).

Remember this the next time a Muslim tells you that Muslims want to integrate into British society.
