Popular Post Xela Posted June 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 21, 2020 The Reading incident has been classified as terror. I'll probably be the lone voice on this but I don't know why this country allows asylum seekers who are habitual criminals to remain in the country. Why isn't it a condition of your asylum that your right to stay is dependant on you not committing crime. RIP to the three innocent people. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 The last large scale census has it at a decimal point under 60% I don’t doubt the figure will be lower in the 2021 census, but there’s still a very long way to go before it’s ‘no religion’ with the bragging rights.

Well no because the statement was that we are a predominantly White Christian country. A sigificant proportion of the practising Christians are BAME for starters 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
