Syrian refugees

They are not closing borders they are getting tigher and making sure people wanting to enter do so through the correct means, which I have absolute no problem. That is the right way to deal with the problem. Not just say "don't let anyone in"!! Let as many people in as possible as long as they have been processed first.

Corbyn wins

From just the first day I really don't think the media or his party will give him a chance, which will be a wasted opportunity for the country and the Labour party. Andy Burnham will be Labour leader within 12 months and then Labour can realigned themselves with their Tory values.

I don't understand the unelectable argument. Labour have to become more Tory like to win (well more than the have since Blair)? Labour party should not just be a copy of the Tories. This is now a real oppoisition. Even if they aren't elected they will be there to fight for different ideals than the Tories. With the SNP success and now this I believe this is changing British politics. There ...

It would be unlikely that AI would develop spirituality. AI would be built on logic and reason and would base everything on the evidence and environment around them. Something that being religious doesn't lend itself to. If they did form a kind of religion (again unlikely) then surely it would be to worship its creator?

To lighten the mood ... Saudi have agreed to help refugees ... by offering to build 200 mosques in Germany https://twitter.com/SaifRRahman/status/641912820326604801. The link in the tweet is in German but use Google Translate and you will be able to understand most of it :-)

The point I think Lynne is making is no one said it is ok they are Muslim they can be that, they went to prison. They broke the UK laws and now they are in prision. Saying they tried could be said about any crime ... Religious hate crime went up by 45% from 2012/13 and 2013/14 ( https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/364198/hosb0214.pdf ) ...

How am I trying to get people to bite? You really couldn't be further from truth when you say seeking oxygen of publicity. I keep saying find out for yourself rather than listen to anyone or believe the headlines. I am saying y ou can't dismiss a group of people based on a few. What is rubbish about my argument? I can see that you aren't interested so I might just give up ...

My argument really isn't because I said so. You read it wrong. There is an edit button btw!

5th column? Really? I will ignore that. You are going to reject a whole group of people because of a few horrible twisted people? You really think majority of muslims support those events? You honestly think that the majority of people looking for asylum are here to cause harm to non muslims? I have briefly mention the stats of migration up to now and I wouldn't expect to sudden have ...
