Today the Sun, Daily Mail and Express (tabloid papers) were at their racist, generalising best; reinforcing the uniformed views of asylum seekers that many people have, because the media is their main source of information.
Note: THE MAJORITY OF ASYLUM SEEKERS ARE NOT BOMBERS IN THE MAKING.
anymore than the majority of doctors are going to do what Harold Shipman did
anymore than the majority of police are dishonest
anymore than the majority of priests are child abusers
Don't have time to do the links as my lift will arrive at any minute, but link to groups like Refugee Council for facts, rather than myths using one individual to base generalisations on.
The bombings must not be used as an excuse for us to opt out of our obligations to those in need.
