<p>As events in Afghanistan unfold, the UK Government recently announced plans to launch the <a href="https://www.gov.uk/guidance/afghan-citizens-resettlement-scheme">Afghan Citizens' Resettlement Scheme</a>, which aims to help 5,000 Afghans to settle in the UK, with the long-term goal total of 20,000.</p>
<p>Local councils have been asked to play their part in finding settled accommodation for Afghan refugees, and a number of local authorities have reached out to the NRLA, seeking help in contacting private landlords in relation to this.</p>
<p>Private landlords with empty properties are encouraged to make their council housing teams aware where possible, as the property may be suitable for resettling refugees who need homes. Many councils are in particular need of family homes with three or more bedrooms.</p>
<p>Over the August bank holiday weekend, the UK Government launched a central portal for individuals and organisations to<span> </span><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/afghanistan-housing-portal-offers-of-support">register housing which could be used to resettle Afghan refugees.</a></p>
<p>The NRLA is also calling for clarity from local authorities for landlords about how they can offer suitable accommodation.</p>
<p>We have rounded up a list of local authority refugee resettlement schemes as known below.</p>
<p>Any local authorities which have schemes which private landlords can get involved with are encouraged to get in touch with us to be added to this list. Please email policy@nrla.org.uk. Landlords can also proactively contact their local housing teams if they have properties available. </p>
<p>A webinar for landlords about resettlement schemes took place on Thursday 2nd September. The webinar was hosted by <a href="https://welcomechurches.org/">Welcome Churches</a>. Landlords can<span> </span><a href="https://afghanwelcome.org/housing">watch the webinar again</a> here.</p>

<div id="PollyC"><span class="amplitude-current-time">3:58</span></div>
<br />
<div class="entry-content"><p class="subheading">A British Muslim author has said that certain British towns have “no-go zones” for white people and that school children are attacked by Muslim children for “being white”, in an investigation into mosques in the United Kingdom.</p>
<p>Ed Husain, a professor in the Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University, warned that many Muslims in Britain are living in “another universe” in which Taliban-esque cultural norms are enforced.</p>
<br />
<div id="google_ads_iframe_/1003622/Breitbart.ROS.Body1_0__container__"></div>
<br />
<p>In his upcoming book,<span> </span><em>Among The Mosques: A Journey Across Muslim Britain</em>, Husain documented his experiences after “turning up unannounced” for Friday prayers at mosques throughout the country.</p>
<p>The author<span> </span><a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-9648477/Author-visited-Muslim-mosques-Britain-reveals-no-areas-white-men.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener external" class="x5l">revealed</a><span> </span>to the<span> </span><em>Daily Mail</em><span> </span>that Islamic communities in areas such as Bolton are so divided from British society that “a Muslim can spend months with no contact whatsoever with mainstream ‘white’ Britain.”</p>
<p>The former advisor to former prime minister Tony Blair said that native Britons admitted to him that there are areas of their communities they consider “no-go” zones because of concerns of being physically attacked.</p>
<p>A man in Blackburn told Husain that his 12-year-old son is repeatedly the victim of “Asian” teenagers, who “jumped” him for “being white”.</p>
<p>(In British parlance, “Asian” typically refers to people of South Asian and Middle Eastern heritage, rather than people with with roots in the Far East.)</p>
<p>Another man from Blackburn told the author that the Whalley Range area of the town is one of particular concern, saying: “If we go to Whalley Range at night-time, we’re guaranteed to get jumped. We won’t walk out of it. We won’t walk to the other end of the street.”</p>
<p>The men also claimed that the local council of Blackburn have threatened people with eviction for flying the England flag, which they claimed was a “racist” symbol.</p>
<div class="twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered"></div>
<p></p>
<p>Husain noted that half of the mosques in the United Kingdom were established by Deobandis, a hardcore Sunni fundamentalist branch of Islam, which was responsible for the creation of the Taliban in Afghanistan.</p>
<p>Husain said that many Muslims in the country are “physically in Britain but mentally living elsewhere,” pointing to parents in Bradford who have imposed Islamic State-like bans of their children from participating in drama, theatre, dance, and drawing classes out of fear that will have a corrupting influence.</p>
<br />
<div id="google_ads_iframe_/1003622/Breitbart.ROS.Body2_0__container__"></div>
<br />
<p>“Islam, as I am regularly told, prohibits figurative art and also bans dancing. So the children are not permitted to draw or dance, and their parents cannot allow them to come here,” one theatre company director told the author.</p>
<p>Also in the northern town of Bradford, Husain noted that there seemed to him to be barely any white people, but that there were mosques “on almost every corner” and “houses that also serve as mosques and madrasas, banners affixed to their façades.”</p>
<div class="twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered"></div>
<p></p>
<p>On a visit to the town mosque in Didsbury — a former church before it was purchased by Syrians in 1967 — the author also saw books on display from radical Islamist Khurshid Ahmad, who has called for the creation of an Islamic State and has described the terrorist group al-Qaeda as his “brethren”.</p>
<p>Husain also reported that he discovered a sign for the “Sharia Department” for marriages and divorces as well as other disputes that can be settled under Sharia Law.</p>
<p>Husain<span> </span><a href="https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/law-change-urged-to-protect-women-from-rise-of-sharia-courts-lp9g2lmsw" target="_blank" rel="noopener external" class="x5l">told</a><span> </span><em>The Times</em><span> </span>that with the rise of Sharia courts in Britain, women are increasingly becoming alienated and vulnerable.</p>
<p>The author noted that under a Sharia marriage, women do not have legal recourse in areas such as custody of children or child support, as extrajudicial weddings are not recognised by the British government. Under the system, women are sometimes prevented from divorcing their husbands, even if they are abusive.</p>
<p>The author said that through his investigation, Pakistani Muslims are imposing the strictest forms of Islam, saying that Arabs, Somalis, and Kurds all have seen better integration into Western society than those from Pakistani communities.</p>

<p class="imageCaption">Labour has let London turn into a foreign city where even tramps are immigrants, writes Harriet Sergeant</p>
</div>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>The other migrants who were there started to shout at us. Apparently, the sick man owed them and their trafficking gang money. We had to hustle him out fast.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>I emerged shaken. I had glimpsed a London I did not know existed — one of Third World poverty, exploitation and criminality.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>It is writer Ben Judah’s great achievement to reveal that hidden city in his new book, This Is London: Life And Death In The World City.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>A young war correspondent, Judah examines his home city as the foreign metropolis it has now become</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Since 2001, immigration has transformed the capital. More than half of Londoners are now not ethnically British.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>As he says: ‘I was born in London, but I no longer recognise this city. I don’t know if I love the new London, or if it frightens me: a city where at least 55 per cent of people are not white British, nearly 40 per cent were born abroad and hundreds of thousands are living illegally, in the shadows.’</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Who are these new Londoners? In order to find out, Judah immerses himself in the migrant world.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>He spends a night with the Roma beggars who camp in the tunnels beneath Hyde Park. He stays in a doss-house in Barking, East London. He cajoles an astonishing array of migrants from across London to describe their lives.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Whether a mini cab driver who also washes dead bodies, a Romanian prostitute in a blonde wig, or a wealthy young African with bodyguards hired from his own tribe, they open up to Judah.</font></p>
<div><div id="p-16" class="related-carousel with-fb-or-tw news"><div class="rotator bdrcc"><div class="rotator-title"></div>
</div>
<div class="fb"><div class="count"></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>The quantity and authenticity of his interviews build up an irrefutable argument. Here, as opposed to what the Left is always telling us, are the real effects of immigration.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Immigration, Judah makes clear, has touched every aspect of life in London and utterly transformed it. </font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>The English upper classes no longer inhabit the splendid townhouses in Mayfair. Suburbs such as Edmonton in the north of the city are no longer home to the aspirational, largely unionised, English working-class.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>As for white, East End gangsters such as the Kray Twins, you will only find those in movies.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>The same goes for the prostitutes who used to inhabit Soho. Even tramps, for goodness sake, are rarely English any more. Such is the level of liberal propaganda that we have largely remained blind to this startling transformation of our city.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Judah systematically maps these changes — the result of Labour relaxing immigration into the UK.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Left-wingers and the business establishment pat themselves on the back for creating an open city that welcomes the world. In fact, we have lost control of our borders and have no say who comes here.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>This week, it emerged that Brussels is attempting to blackmail Britain by saying that if we don’t take as many as 90,000 migrants a year, we will not be able to send failed asylum seekers back to safe countries on the Continent.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Then came the story that a tribunal had ruled that a group of migrants in the Jungle camp in Calais had a ‘human right’ to join family members in Britain. It is a precedent that could have far-reaching implications.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Aside from legal rulings, the truth is that much of our immigration policy is now dictated by criminal trafficking gangs who make a fortune smuggling people into Britain — not our elected leaders and certainly not voters and taxpayers.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>It is criminal gangs who decide who comes into the UK and in what numbers. They largely decide what happens to the migrants once they arrive.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>In handing our immigration system over to them, we have allowed conditions of unimaginable squalor, misery and criminality reminiscent of Victorian times to take hold.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>So how has it happened? Well, get rid of any notion that we are doing the world’s poorest many favours.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Judah quickly discovers that multiculturalism for many migrants is a euphemism for slave labour.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>It starts when would-be immigrants listen to the sales pitch of the agents for the people-traffickers. They promise that London is ‘a second paradise’ where ‘every man is rich’. </font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>On offer is free NHS treatment, free housing, free schooling and countless welfare benefits. It is a place of opportunity, security and, above all, available women.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>This was a definite pull for one young Afghan working in a butcher’s in Neasden, North West London.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>As he put it, in his village, if you slept with more than one person in your life, ‘they shot you in the back’. In Britain, however, sexual opportunities were immense.</font></p>
<div class="artSplitter mol-img-group"><div class="mol-img"><div class="image-wrap fff-pic"><a href="https://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2016/01/22/23/0DA078D800000514-3412616-Homeless_Roma_immigrants_are-m-5_1453507055658.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2016/01/22/23/0DA078D800000514-3412616-Homeless_Roma_immigrants_are-m-5_1453507055658.jpg?profile=RESIZE_710x" width="400" class="align-left"/></a><div class="overlay-icon mobile-gallery"><div class="mobile-gallery-icon">Homeless Roma immigrants, pictured, can now be found sleeping in doorways in Mayfair</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>The agents explain how to take full advantage of the UK.‘London is a country of rights,’ they say. How very true! If you tell the correct story, they are informed, ‘you will never be sent home’.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>And yet, when migrants manage to reach the UK, they all have to pay back the people-traffickers who got them here.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Indeed, it is this debt, sometimes with interest rates of 100 per cent, that lies behind the often appalling working conditions they are forced to accept.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>This is the simple fact that the immigration lobby ignore — with appalling consequences for the migrants concerned.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Typical of the views of those Judah met was someone who said: ‘I thought the money would be growing on trees. Six months later, I was crying myself to sleep. I was homeless.’</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>A Roma violin player in a tunnel beneath Park Lane explains what this means.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>‘We’re all here to beg, to work off our debts. We give the enforcers all the money. They told us to come here. But we are never going to make back the loans they gave us to come here. We’re trapped.’</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>He explains that the people-traffickers are a constant threat to the children migrants have left behind in places such as the Romanian city of Slobozia. Defiance could bring brutal retribution on those they love.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Judah quickly learns that the people who make it here are ‘virtual slaves’. And it is the same wherever he goes. In a hotel laundry room, Africans curse the tricksters who brought them here on counterfeited visas and passports.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>A Ghanaian came on a student visa with plans to set up an international business. All he wanted, he said, was to wear a suit and work in an office.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Yet the traffickers never told him what would happen when he tried to work as an illegal migrant.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>He used up his savings of five years in a matter of months. Instead of running his own business, he stacks shelves in a warehouse. </font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Frustrated, angry and exhausted, he knows he has ruined his life. He can never escape, never get home to his children, because his low wages mean he cannot imagine ever paying off his debt.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>There is a whole illegal city in London of several hundred thousand people, and nearly half of them are thought to have arrived after 2001.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>This is a city hidden from official statistics, but not hidden from employers who take on the workers, no questions asked, through agencies.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Legal workers also have problems because the sheer number of new arrivals push down wages. </font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>A Polish builder explains that, on his work site, the English builders tell him angrily they used to be paid £15 an hour. Now it is £7 an hour. ‘They hate me,’ he says simply.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>But then he gripes about the newly-arrived Romanians who, he says, are pushing wages even lower.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Tragically, politicians appear blissfully oblivious to the new realities. They solemnly debate the merits of a ‘living wage’ over the minimum wage.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>What planet are they living on?</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Certainly, it’s one as far removed as possible from the reality of daily life outside Wickes, the builder’s merchant in Barking, East London. </font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Here, Judah joined 80 or so Romanians, ‘blank eyes wide with hunger’, touting for work.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>‘They pace up and down in their work boots for the next 11 hours, muttering tensely, ‘waiting for a white van’. </font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>This is a reference to the fact, they tell Judah, that the proverbial White Van Englishman is the best type of employer. Whereas Pakistanis, Turks and Poles are the worst.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>One explains: ‘They make us fight for work. And they know we have no choice. That we are hungry.’</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>To such men, the minimum wage is a luxury that they can only dream about. They often work for much less — or, as one put it, for nothing more than ‘one chicken and chips’.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>But this story is not just about brutal exploitation. It is also about crime.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Along with immigrants, we have imported the criminal gangs who blight their countries. When it is so easy for migrants to get here, it is just as simple for the world’s nastiest criminals to relocate to the UK, too.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Thus many Somalian gangs terrorise estates in South London and Turkish gangs control North London.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Kurds and Albanians launder their money through the car washes in Tottenham and Kilburn. Vietnamese gangs grow and distribute two-thirds of the strong cannabis on the capital’s streets.</font></p>
<div class="artSplitter mol-img-group"><div class="mol-img"><div class="image-wrap fff-pic">Judah encountered a Grenadian, now a successful cocaine dealer, who recalled moving to the White City estate in West London with his mother when he was 12.</div>
</div>
</div>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>‘We pitched up for a better life, but found ourselves right in the middle of a war zone,’ he recalled.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>He said the estate ‘was way more corrupt . . . way more dangerous, more full of disillusion than anywhere in Grenada. Within six months of being here, I had lost 75 per cent of my morals.’</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>After a few years here, and now a heavy cocaine-user, he woke up to his mother screaming. She’d found his gun in the fridge and bullets on the sofa.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>She was crying: ‘Please, please, the police will kill you, the gangsters will kill you! My baby, why, why did I ever bring you to this country?’</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>The sex industry is another area where our flawed immigration policy has had a malign effect. Now, 96 per cent of prostitutes are migrants. In the main, Albanians have taken over.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Typically, they lure girls from Moldova with promises of modelling jobs, but then rape and traffic them.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>I saw the results of this myself when a brothel opened in a house on a quiet, residential street near my son’s primary school in Hampstead. </font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>The mother of one of my son’s friends lived opposite. She was intimidated by the sinister men in leather jackets who sat in the nearby coffee shop all day.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>She reported to the police that the girls on the top floor looked underage and never went out. In due course, her car was smashed up. </font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>She suspected this was done as a warning to keep her nose out of it. The police did nothing and she never raised the matter again.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Finally, migration has even changed the nationality of London’s vagrants.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>There are now around 5,000 — mostly Polish and Romanians — living rough on London’s streets. In North London, they unload trucks for Turkish shopkeepers in exchange for nothing more than their drink of choice, White Ace cider. </font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Others have been found roasting rats for food in the back alleys of Tottenham and Haringey.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>In this new London, increasingly there is one nationality significant for its absence — white, British-born. Nearly all the migrants comment on this phenomenon.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Ben Judah meets a Pole who works as a registrar — recording births and deaths — in Catford Bridge, who says she works in a position that is perfect to spot the ethnic changes.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>She describes the new London where 57 per cent of births are to migrant mothers. </font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>But when she enters the names of the recent dead, they are nearly all of them old white British. Another migrant comments: ‘The English are dying. They are declining fast.’</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>He recalls in the street markets, there used to be only English voices shouting out, ‘advertising their wares in the Cockney accent. But they’ve gone now’.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>A Met policeman, who was born in Nigeria, says: ‘The English are vanishing. London is no longer an English city at all . . . London is a patchwork of ghettos.’</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Between 1971 and 2011, the white British share of London’s population slumped from 86 per cent to 45 per cent, overwhelmingly the old Cockney working-class. Cockney, in fact, is predicted to die out in 15 years.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>I once visited a school in the East End displaying photos of a class from the Thirties and today. In the first photo, the children were all white. In the second, none of them were.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>In some countries, this might be called racial cleansing. In London, it is simply the result of the failed policy of multiculturalism.</font></p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>On the Old Kent Road, Judah found only one English shopkeeper left — a plumbers’ merchant. He charts the gradual disappearance of the English by the fate of their pubs.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Along this road, there used to be 12: one has been turned into a Nigerian mosque, another into the Afrikiko nightclub, the rest have simply been demolished.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Across London, it is the same story. African churches move into abandoned bingo halls, cinemas and pubs vacated by the old white working-class.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>In Brent and Harlesden, the white population has fallen by 30 per cent since 2001.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Suburbs such as Edmonton, once ‘terraces of white respectability’, where the Tory politician Norman Tebbit grew up for goodness’ sake, have now turned into tenements for migrants. </font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>This huge demographic shift is as true for wealthy areas as for deprived.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Half of Kensington & Chelsea’s inhabitants were born overseas — a third arriving since 2001. Forty per cent do not have a British passport. </font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Global immigration has transformed these areas as radically as it has other parts of London.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>The English upper and upper-middle classes find themselves elbowed out of Mayfair, Knightsbridge and Notting Hill Gate — as surely as the white working class has been out of London’s East End.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>So how can the relatively honest, tax-paying English compete to buy property with a global elite who, as one wealthy young Nigerian explains, are not paying taxes, and are making their money in countries rife with corruption?</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Instead, the next generation of these English retreat to places such as Peckham — as Judah put it, ‘mourning their postcodes’, and ‘bitter like refugees’.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Judah has done an extraordinary job in painstakingly building up a vivid and desperate portrait of London today.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>His observations turn an unsparing spotlight on how the British people have been so befuddled by Left-wing dogma and political correctness that too few people have noticed the utter transformation of our capital city.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Too many have failed to question why we lost control of our borders and, having done so, allowed immigrant gangs to exploit migrants.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Also, we have failed to wonder if we are comfortable with this new London, with its extremes of foreign poverty and wealth.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Uncontrolled immigration has changed London for ever. And, most shamefully, not one of our leaders has lifted a finger to stop it.</font></p>

<p></p>
<br />

<br />
<p></p>
<div class="entry-content"><p>Many thanks to <a target="_blank" href="https://egrinok.wordpress.com/">Egri Nök</a> for translating this article from the Swiss news site <a target="_blank" href="http://www.tagesanzeiger.ch/zuerich/verbrechen-und-unfaelle/asylbetreuerin-nach-angriff-mit-gartenmesser-auf-dem-linken-auge-blind/story/22638547"><em>Tages-Anzeiger</em></a>:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Refugee carer blinded in one eye by knife attack</strong></p>
<p><em>June 7, 2017</em></p>
<p><strong>An asylum seeker wounded a carer gravely with a so-called gertel [billhook]. Now the African woman is charged with attempted murder.</strong></p>
<p>It is hard to imagine what the 28-year-old refugee carer went through. A resident of the transition centre for asylum seekers in Embrach struck the head and upper body of the carer about twenty times with a so-called gertel, a machete-like garden knife, on November 18, 2015. The young Swiss woman suffered injuries to her eyes and has been completely blinded in one eye. The reason for the attack: the asylum seeker was supposed to leave the transition centre and move to a different centre in the canton.</p>
<p>The accused is a 36-year-old woman from Ivory Coast. As an undocumented immigrant, she applied at the Bund in June 2013 for asylum, which was denied. She was expected to leave Switzerland in November 2014, but resisted departure repeatedly. At the time of the deed, she was living in the Embrach transition centre. She was supposed to move to the Adliswil emergency shelter for families and solitary women. The African refused, in spite of daily talks with the team of carers.</p>
<p><strong>Resisting departure</strong></p>
<p>On noon of November 18, 2015, the carer went to see the African in her room. She did not make a move to pack her belongings, but said that her stomach hurt and that she was unable to leave. When the carer offered to help her pack, the accused suddenly walked to the door and locked it. According to the bill of indictment, she then got a gertel with a 30 cm long, curved, and very sharp blade from the closet.</p>
<p>She walked towards the carer and hit her head several times. The woman collapsed and fell to the ground. “At that point, the accused lunged at the victim and chopped relentlessly and with great force about twenty times on the head, upper body, and extremities of the victim,” the bill of indictment says. The victim suffered grave injuries to head and upper body. Her left eye is completely blind. Her face is badly disfigured from the scars, and she lost three teeth.</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote><p><strong>“Je vais mourir à la prison”</strong></p>
<p>Initially, the victim tried to defend herself, but then grew weak. When the carer pretended to be dead, the perpetrator stopped. She locked the room door [sic; the contradiction of earlier statement is in the original] and moved the freezer in front of the door. In the meantime, the carer tried to get her mobile phone out of her pocket and call for help. When the asylum seeker noticed, she wrestled the phone from her. Then she poured methylated spirits over the body of the gravely injured woman who was still lying on the floor. Thereupon, the perpetrator changed her blood soaked clothes, put on a wig, and fled out of the window with the words “Je vais mourir à la prison” (I will die in prison). The canton police were able to arrest the woman the same evening in Kloten.</p>
<p><strong>Prosecution demands 18 years</strong></p>
<p>Charges for attempted murder were pressed against the woman in mid-May at the Bülach district court. A trial date is yet not set. Prosecutor Adrian Kaegi demands a prison term of 18 years and ambulatory psychiatric treatment. “The accused acted particularly ruthlessly; the attack is equivalent to a massacre,” he writes in the bill of indictment. Moreover, the accused intended to burn the defenseless victim alive. She acted out of malice, lured the victim into a trap, and locked the room.</p>

<p><span>Not All Immigration Is Good.</span></p>
<p><span>Some immigrant groups contribute to society while others contribute mostly to prison populations and as welfare clients. Countries that were once stable, prosperous and ethnically homogeneous have been flooded with aliens that are mostly culturally incompatible and that have higher birth rates. In places like Sweden around 50% of immigrants of Middle-Eastern or African descent are unemployed and living on welfare, compared to 7% in the native population, and the proportion of foreigners in prison is 5 times their proportion in the population of the country.</span></p>
<p><span>Immigrants from neighboring countries can be easily integrated and absorbed, or return to their own countries, but foreigners, immigrants and refugees, from incompatible cultures do not integrate and contribute to the common good. And they mostly do not desire to return to their country of origin. They also retain their own language, culture and traditions, and their attitude to law.</span></p>
<p><span>The intellectuals, journalists, politicians and academics dream up fanciful concepts such as that “we are all descendants of immigrants”; something that is patently not true. The first Europeans that arrived in America were invaders not immigrants. The Muslims that enter Europe now in such large numbers are also invaders and not immigrants. They make no secret that their intention is to take over, as their religion requires that they do.</span></p>
<p><span>In most countries around the world the populations are not immigrants their forefathers have been living there for thousands of years. Moving to a country does not automatically give you the same rights as the people that live there, you are a guest and it is up to the host to decide if you are to are allowed to stay or not. It is not a human right to live anywhere that you choose.</span></p>
<p><span>“Open borders”, is another fanciful, damaging and dangerous concept, based on the idealistic concept of universal equality- that we are all equal and that all cultures are equal. The problem is that we are not all alike or even think alike. Open borders results in; an increase in poverty and crime, a lowering of standards, confusion and ethnic conflict. </span></p>
<p><span>We may all be citizens of the world but first and foremost we are citizens of our native country and a product of the dominating culture in that country. The differences in cultures and mentalities make it very unwise to encourage unrestricted immigration and to relax or abolish border controls. Criminals have no respect for cultures and some cultures have no respect for other cultures. Multiculturalism simply does not work.</span></p>
<p><span>If the migration trend continues Sweden will no longer be Sweden, America no longer America and Britain no longer Britain, countries as we know them will cease to exist. Which is all very well if you believe in; one world, one race, one culture. Perhaps a future possibility, but suddenly opening borders and abolishing nations will not function, this would have to be something that evolved slowly and carefully. As it is now most are satisfied with their own nation and culture.</span></p>
<p><span>It is only natural that people in poor countries want to migrate to rich countries, but this is not a solution, it only damages developed countries. The answer is to reduce poverty, and it is essential that global population growth is reduced, perhaps by compulsory contraception. The poor countries can never stabilize as long as population growth outstrips development.</span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span>If the poor that migrate to developed countries do not immediately become wealthy, they become consumed with envy and hatred, blame discrimination, and only want to destroy what they cannot have.</span></p>

<p><span><b>THE ONLY SCARY THING ABOUT SYRIA’S REFUGEES IS THAT THEY’RE JUST LIKE US</b></span></p>
<p><span>Visiting displaced Syrians in Lebanon, the author discovers a painful truth. These aren’t would-be terrorists sneaking across borders; they’re regular families, living in the margins and dreaming of home.</span></p>
<p><span>BY <a href="http://www.vanityfair.com/contributor/rashida-jones"><span>RASHIDA JONES</span></a></span></p>
<p><span>“As a descendant of black slaves and Jewish immigrants, it’s inherently hard for me to understand why it’s acceptable for a closed-borders, anti-foreigners viewpoint to be influencing policy and popular opinion.”</span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span>Rashida Jones is intelligent, talented and multiracial. She employs the tactic of pointing to pictures of suffering, wounded or dead children and of bagatellizing any argument against the massive immigration of Muslims into free and democratic countries. Calling it irrational fear because they are just like us.</span></p>
<p><span>There are 1.7 billion Muslims. Some of them that move into our countries do integrate most do not. They retain their own language and culture and do not respect our laws. Their faith instructs them to fight by every means until the host country becomes Muslim. Islam is violent and discriminating and preaches hatred.</span></p>
<p><span>“And, yes, they are irrationally scared of inviting in violent extremism”- Her first lie. We are rationally afraid of Islam because Islam is dangerous and a real threat to our freedom and wellbeing. Islamophobia is a misnomer.</span></p>
<p><span>“Of course we all understand the instinct to protect what is ours, but at what cost to our humanity?”(moral condemnation).- We are inhuman if we want to say no to refugees and immigrants because we want to preserve our culture and way of life.</span></p>
<p><span>Is protecting ourselves immoral? We can help others elsewhere, just not here.</span></p>
<p><span>Like all Leftist-Liberals she ignores the principle that refugee status is temporary and that refugees have to return to their homeland as soon as it is safe to do so, it is conveniently ignored that most refugees have no intention of returning to their homelands, become permanent citizens in and change drastically the character of the host country. Which is why refugees should be helped only on the borders of their homelands, so that they remain in a familiar culture and when possible can return to assist in rebuilding their own homeland.</span></p>
<p><span>Though Rashida ignores the fact, the English have a right, a human right, to own their own homeland and to live in a country where they are the overwhelming majority. To have their own unique culture and that they have the right to decide who is to be allowed to settle in their homeland and how many can do so.</span></p>
<p><span>A society can adapt over time to small changes in population, but it is utterly destroyed by the massive and indiscriminate immigration of aliens.</span></p>
<p><span>In the far distant future this planet may be home to one race and one culture, united in peace, lawfulness and harmony, without suffering. But this has to happen slowly and carefully, dramatic change, causes problems and conflicts.</span></p>
<p><span>There are 7.5 billion human beings on this planet and the numbers are increasing, Unless we introduce compulsory contraception where the birth rates are highest we are sooner or later going to run out of resources. All attempts to reduce poverty will be futile. There will never be enough schools, hospitals, jobs, infrastructure, food or water. All progress will eventually be swamped by the sheer numbers of births.</span></p>
<p><span>Wishful thinking, which is what the Liberal-Left indulge in, will not solve any problems. We need practical solutions to humanity’s problems, one of which is to protect the technically advanced nations from destruction through mass-immigration.</span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span>“The biggest difference is that this family had experienced a terrible stroke of bad luck”.</span></p>
<p><span>The bad luck this family experienced was to exist in a Muslim country. Without Islam the Middle-East might have been a Paradise on Earth.</span></p>
<p><span>What Rashida and her like cannot visualize is what would happen if the borders of nations were removed, the massive migration that would ensue and all of the conflict and suffering that the collapse of these nations would cause.</span></p>
<p><span>To take the US; when they become numerous enough the Muslims will behave there exactly like they do in Europe, refuse to integrate and create hostile communities; the Mexicans will keep their culture, speak Spanish and literally make the southern states part of Mexico.</span></p>

<p></p>
<p><span>I wish no nice person any harm and am willing to assist those genuinely in need, but I will not sacrifice my own wellbeing and the wellbeing of those that I care for, for the theoretical principle- that I must sacrifice everything and devote my life and fortune to helping everyone. I give myself the right to decide what sort of people I want to associate with and to be surrounded by, and what sort of culture is acceptable to me.</span></p>
<p><span>And everyone else has this right, except where it interferes with and denies me my right. So there we have the basic human conflict; me and us against them and you. And that is a reality, as is the right to choose what to accept and who to cooperate with. No one is essentially right, it is the majority or those with the power that decide. </span></p>
<p><span>Being a democrat I unwillingly accept the will of the majority. Being an agnostic and a skeptic, I understand morality to be a practical convenience not an absolute truth.</span></p>

<div class="article__summary summary">A row at an arrival center for asylum seekers in Sweden has left two men injured and another being held by police on suspicion of attempted manslaughter. However, officers are not entirely sure what caused the fight because of the language barrier.</div>
<div class="article__text text"><p>The two men were attacked with a knife-like object following an argument that took place at the Arena Hotel in Halmstad, southern Sweden. </p>
<p>According to the police, the injuries the pair sustained were not serious. Officers believe that two different factions clashed at the center, although police found it difficult to question the witnesses due to language problems. </p>
<p><em>"It's a bit difficult because they don't speak English or any other language but their own,"</em> police control room officer Johan Johansson told the Aftonbladet newspaper. </p>
<div class="rtcode"></div>
<p>In 2015 Sweden welcomed around 163,000 asylum seekers, but numbers dropped in the last few weeks of the year after border checks were re-imposed following warnings of accommodation shortages. </p>

<p>The Arena Hotel has previously been in the news for violent outbreaks that were also linked to overcrowding.</p>
<p>The Swedish Migration Board reported that by August 2015 there were as many violent breakouts at asylum accommodation in that year as throughout the whole of 2014. Other countries such as Germany have also seen instances of violence in refugee centers as a result of overcrowding, even though there is a much faster track record of integrating asylum seekers into society there.</p>

<div><p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>German authorities have resorted to issuing cartoon leaflets in public swimming pools in an attempt to stop gangs of migrants groping women.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>In the wake of the sex assaults in Cologne on New Year's Eve and a wave of reported cases of sexual harassment in swimming baths, officials have now created a special cartoon guide on appropriate etiquette.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>The illustrations feature German captions with subtitles in English and Arabic and warn migrants not to wear underwear instead of swimming trunks, harass women, or push them in the water. </font></p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Some 20,000 leaflets in seven languages have been issued across refugee facilities and public pools and a second edition is already in the pipeline.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>A spokesman for Munich public services said the leaflets contained bathing rules and 'intercultural subjects', developed in cooperation with the equality office, the anti-discrimination office and the Centre for Intercultural Cooperation of the City of Munich.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>A spokesman added: 'We had a number of incidents in swimming pools with migrants who could not swim and do not understand our language, written warnings, bans or instructions.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>'The principle of acceptance of women – no matter what clothes they’re wearing – was not be respected by all visitors, hence the explicit indication.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>'The multilingual information helps the staff communicate and is helping them in prevention work.'</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>This comes after migrants were banned from a historic swimming bath in Germany after a gang of men were caught on camera masturbating in a hot tub and sexually assaulting women.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Several other men were seen 'emptying their bowels' in the children's end of the main swimming pool at the Johannisbad baths in Zwickau, Saxony.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Management at the historic baths are reportedly no longer allowing migrants into the facilities following the allegations while some local swimmers have stayed away after the incidents. </font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>In response to growing concerns, a leisure centre in Bornheim, North Rhine-Westphalia, became the first in Germany to ban migrants after a schoolgirl was sexually assaulted in a public swimming pool by Syrian teenagers.</font></p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Three Syrian boys were arrested in January over the attack at a leisure centre in Munich as the country grapples with growing concerns about sex crimes perpetrated by asylum seekers. </font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>The ban also follows an attack by an 18-year-old refugee on a 54-year-old woman in Bornheim, where he had groped and tried to kiss her.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>In Sweden, police have resorted to sending undercover officers to Stockholm's swimming pools amid a rising number of sex assaults on girls by migrants.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Plain clothes police will monitor swimming baths in the Swedish capital after 'a few dozen' suspected cases of sexual harassment were reported mainly by parents of teenage girls.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>It comes amid reports that a number of girls said they had been sexually assaulted by young male asylum seekers at the city's Eriksdalsbadet Olympic baths in recent weeks</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>The four cases involve girls under the age of 18 and all sexual assaults have taken place in hot tubs, pools or in the changing rooms.</font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>The baths have started segregated whirlpool bathing after an increase in reports by girls and women that they had been groped underwater. </font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>Meanwhile Switzerland has also adopted a similar Austrian cartoon flyer for its upcoming Lucerne carnival which authorities are issuing to migrants.</font></p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>The pictogram clearly demonstrates accepted behavior such as kissing and praying, while making it clear what is frowned upon in society. </font></p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font"><font>The Health and Social Services Department has issued the cartoon flyer, dubbed 'Ground Rules' and will distribute it to migrants ahead of the hugely popular Swiss carnival, which takes place from February 4-9.</font></p>
