Spokesperson Maryam Namazie is speaking on Friday 27 January at a debate on whether human rights and Sharia are compatible. The person she was to debate has pulled out so she will now be giving a talk followed by Q&A. The event is organised by LSE Human Rights Society. The University is not allowing the public to attend (London students can attend) due to “security concerns” and is following “special procedures” for this talk – because it is apparently “controversial” to say Sharia and human rights are incompatible.
