One small step for Muslims, one giant leap for Islam. "Sharia-compliant MasterCard launch," from the [1] Press Association, August 11:

The UK's first sharia-compliant prepaid MasterCard has been launched in London - dubbed the "Islamic financial centre of Europe".

The Cordoba Gold MasterCard does not charge or receive interest as this is in direct conflict with sharia Law.[...]

What about all those other "issues" with UK society that "are in direct conflict with sharia law" -- you know, like the proliferation of pork and alcohol, homosexual rights, and the fact that Christians are not paying the jizya? All in due time, I suppose.
