“The Archbishop of Canterbury’s suggestion that some form of sharia law is inevitable in Britain has provoked public outrage – The Times has labelled him a traitor and there have been calls for his resignation. Now Rowan Williams says he has been misunderstood – he never intended to suggest there should be parallel legal jurisdictions. We speak to the author of Londonistan, Melanie Phillips, about why Britain’s elites seem so strangely reluctant to defend the idea of a common culture.”
