Original Note:
The question posed in the post is based on incorrect information: there are no 85 'Sharia Courts' in the UK. The councils operating in the UK hold no legal status or authority, contrary to what the term "court" might suggest. https://www.sochfactcheck.com/there-are-not-over-100-sharia-courts-in-the-uk/ https://fullfact.org/law/uks-sharia-courts/ https://factcheckhub.com/fact-checking-claims-about-islams-influence-in-the-united-kingdom/ https://www.aap.com.au/factcheck/falsehoods-about-sharia-law-in-the-uk-spread-online/
