There is not even an attempt it seems to investigate their religious beliefs. This is not scaremongering or anti political P.C. it is just common sense. If the new Brutus we have in as P.M. in Australia wavers in the attempt that was made by his predesessor, he will soon see how his ratings in the media controlled polls stand, the same applies to the Labour Party.

Comment today on talk back radio. Oz has a new PM and very popular, Canada has now moved to the left it would appear, USA could well move even further left after next years presidential election. The question was asked, is the world moving towards easier govs who will not be so hard on many issues?
For my mind no gov can be too far to the right, we need strong and tough govs in the world as it is today. Weak leaders will only allow the terrorists to move further ahead on their quest.
john plenty of room in Canada out in the arctic circle or even Alaska would be nice I wonder in the next century here will we have boat people crossing the channel heading the other way back to their roots? jp

Dear Mr Brady,
Thank you very much for writing. I do appreciate people taking the trouble to get in touch after I've been involved in a public story. I'm particularly grateful when people who disagree think it worth writing to tell me why.
I don't agree that accepting 10,000 refugees over each of the next few years will make a radical change to British Society. There is a wider debate to be had about migration - as you will know last year net inward migration to the UK was something over 300,000. The people who are fleeing for their lives from the horror that is Syria today are a tiny drop in the ocean at the 10,000 per year figure. It will be no more than one new person for every 6,000 or so already here. I really don't believe that this is going to make a major change to the nature of Britain as a country.
I agree about the importance of tackling homelessness and other social evils in our own country. I've done voluntary work with housing associations for almost 30 years now myself and over the summer recorded a programme with Radio 4 about my conversations with the street homeless here in Manchester. My own Cathedral founded and is still very much involved with the Booth Centre - a day centre for homeless people in the city. I've spoken out long and often on some of the issues faced by those who have to rely on welfare benefits to get by. I really don't think it's a case of either/or. We can care both for those who have fallen on hard times in our own country and also those who are fleeing for their lives from the horrors and terrors of the Middle East. I shall certainly remain committed to both.
Whenever new people come to the country there is inevitably a proper question to be asked about whether we can meet their housing, healthcare, education etc needs. But again we are talking very small numbers here - no more than 3% a year on what the Bishops are asking for when compared with the number who legally entered the UK through normal patterns of migration in 2014. I've spoken with a number of representatives of local authorities here in my own patch and don't get the impression that accommodation is going to be the stumbling block. A number of Dioceses across the country including my own, have been looking at, or are already making available, properties that are not needed in the short terms as temporary housing - should that be required. As yet I'm not aware of any drawdown on those offers. It remains that case that, after an initial period of recovery from their trauma, those who come to the United Kingdom as refugees become net contributors to the economy, growing and creating more jobs than they themselves occupy.
It may well be that we are not going to agree on these matters, but I do thank you once again for taking the trouble to write.
Yours sincerely,
+ David

Message: Your Holiness,whilst I think you mean well by wanting to bring more refugees into the country don't you think the people have a democratic right to say we have enough people here already.The government are about to slash tax credits for good honest working people because the country can't afford it,you want to bring another 30.000 thousand refugees into the country who is going to pick up the bill for that,not the C.O.E. We don't have enough money to look after our own,thousands of our own people without a home we bring refugees in and house them,furnished all bills paid and £35.00 for food,why cant we do this with our own homeless people.This is supposed tobe a Christian country carry on with an open door policy,let these people keep on flooding in from the Middle East,let them keep on building their mosques and one thing is for sure your job will be redundant in 20 years time.
Regards.
Jim.Brady.

What does not seem to be taken into account is after these people have been accepted as refugees, and after a period of 5 years , they can apply to bring in the rest of the families, so at a guess that would double the number, and if we have no documentation as to who they are, how many can they bring in??. Some of these with two wives have dozens of kids. I think Merkel was trying to demonstrate how Germanys past had been erased, but she is very much in danger of stoking up old hatreds, and i think it is going to explode for her. KT
Good one Jim .
I have just emailed him..................
.
. Your Holiness,
I was saddened by the report that you and around 80 Bishops want more and more M***** immigrants to enter our country. I am Not Islamophobic, but enough is enough.
I already live in a foreign land here in Bolton. My neighbours from the Middle East tell me that `This is our country now, England is all finished`
Is this what my family and myself were sent to war for by our Politicians to defend England and the UK.?.
The true story of the crisis in the Middle East is Saudi Arabia is pushing these "Invaders" North into Europe and the UK with the eventual conversion of Christianity to i****m. Saudi has promised to build another 200 mosques in Europe, Not Christian Churches.
There are many Christians in Syria who are very badly persecuted and beheaded by the M*****s,
around 20 Christians were killed in a boat by fellow M***** passengers and their bodies flung into the sea, No word of Condemnation from any source. So what is going on??
I have lived and work for many many years in every country in the Middle East and indeed have been a hostage in Iran, So I believe I am experienced enough to comment on what is going on, because when I was there they always said they will convert Europe into an Islamic State.
Before the West had Gadhafi of Libya killed he said,.......................
"i*L*M does not have to fight the West, we will take over by weight of Numbers",
How very true, the only Politician to tell the truth..
So please think again of the consequences of importing more M*****s, regardless of what they say, I*L*M today is not compatible in a Christian country.
Yours Sincerely
Brian

That was quick.. a few minutes. It looks like a standard letter already printed, so obviously he just has not sat down to read and make a reply. and they wonder why congregations are falling........................
