    UK has to help the British women struggling with hardship and poverty who are turning into prostitution to afford to pay their universities fees instead of luring women from afluent families in the Gulf countries.Imagine if this lady was a syrian refugee, she would have ended up in a camp in a military base in Cyprus for the rest of her life.also remember the number of Iraqi women widowed because of UK and US invasion. We live in an era where double standard is accepted as a norm.

      well the Britian who you think should have to go over poverty of its citizens poverty and (paying their universities stuff) also have to be humane and safe those women who had no rights in their countries and seeks into Britian doors. stop making these silly competitions. its immature way to think of. dont think that family abusing or suicide cases is less important than poverty. if you cant hold poverty stop breeding 7 babies who you kill by not having something to feed them

      The laws in gulf countries are in favor tribes and men in general, the family structures over there care about their reputation more that they care about their women wellbeing, yet they will brag to the world about how nicely they're treating their women, they well call them diamonds, queens and princesses meanwhile their women are locked in the house, I saw this girl story she tried to ask for protection from a well known organization and they told her to give them her guardian number "her abuser" so that they call him and ask him to stop!! keep in mind the girl was around 21 at the time and she still have a guardian , in Qatar women under 25 aren't allowed to travel without their guardian permission and even if she reached 25 her male guardian can go to the court and ask them to keep her under his guardianship

      Its interesting that she finds living in fear an hidding in a refuge with her having to constantly look over her shoulder an her movements restricted as being free an a better life than she was living. She looked pretty healthy when she first got away, with no scars or any signs of abuse or torture. She seems to be quite well educated an well spoken too. Also seems to have quite a good mentality to the point she believed it was possible to live on her own an that she don't have to rely on a man to survive, or her dreams just small basically within the confides of a marriage within the home an the four walls that someone else provides for her. Interesting

      this action shows the truth, and you said it, humiliation. so the truth is humiliating
      so, yeah you are right
      they hate islam to the core and it's enough to make them think that islam is bullshit
      well islam is not bullshit, it's the people. people who breaks the very core of islam teaching. let them be how they want. let them be what kind of muslim they want. you can not force people to accept some idea no matter how big or small
      let say male gurdian law exist. so that every muslim women must be under surveilance of their guardian. and now some women who hates it a lot and don't want for any reason they like. in the end the convert to other religion so that they don't have to comply with islamic law. this action should be respected as their own choice. don't islam let everybody to chose which religion they want?
      or is islam a brutal religion that murder who leave islam?
      in discussion those who blindly support islam say, "no it won't happen that law only exist in muhammade era. islam was constantly at war.". but the fact is not
      and that's why those women keep fleeing all muslim country that force male guardian law, or simply not respectable of women
      let say west world has their own issue, muslim has their own too. still those women flee that means western world issue about women are much better than the one in their country
      again, facts
