Polygamy - Should men be allowed more than one wife in the UK?: "Alleged bigamist Tom Green claims he's simply following old-style Mormon practice, by having five wives, and that it's his right under religious freedom. Now that the new Human Rights Act as come into force in the UK, we could all have the right to have more than one spouse. Members of the Muslim Parliament in Britain are hoping that the new Act, will make it possible for polygamy to be legalised.

Under Muslim law a man is allowed up to four wives but he must be able to show that he can treat each woman equally and provide a separate home for each one. At present it's believed there are 300 polygamous families living in the UK.

If polygamous marriages are recognised under British law, polyandry -- where women can have more than one husband -- could also become law under our equal rights legislation."
