Piers Morgan accuses 'polygamy website' owner of implementing SHARIA LAW in bizarre debate
GOOD MORNING BRITAIN descended into chaos today when Piers Morgan appeared to accuse Azad Chaiwala - who runs a dating site for polygamists - of trying to implement Sharia Law.
Piers clashes with Muslim polygamist over Sharia law
Azad told the broadcaster and his co-host Susanna Reid that he has earned "loads" of money from his business, but Piers was quick to attack it.
"It's basically an underhand version of Sharia Law's view of Muslim men being able to have multiple wives," he said.
"There will be people saying 'we don't have Sharia Law here… go and live in a Muslim country where you can do what you want to do'."
Visibly frustrated, Azad replied: "At no point did I mention Sharia Law."

Soon everyone was talking over each-other
At no point did I mention Sharia Law
He explained: "There's an institution in this country called marriage. There are decent men in this country, and it's hard for them: they don't want to have affairs but they have an urge.
"And it's like we say, 'a person is born gay and then comes out at a certain point'. I believe I am born polygamous and give people the strength to do that. These decent people would rather be honest."
Earlier in the clash, Azad was probed by Susanna on the site's legality, and said: "What is illegal is to take an additional wife legally.
"I'm not asking at any point for anyone to take a wife legally.
Piers certainly didn't hold back
Even Azad's glasses came under scrutiny
"It's a faith based ceremony or a civil ceremony. My marriage isn't registered in the UK by a registrar but my family recognises it. My children are legitimate."
He admitted that his wife is not "entirely" comfortable with his own search for a second bride, saying: "It's something we discussed prior to getting married. Nobody is entirely happy."
