I don’t see protecting someone’s life as a “problem”. I do think that Pakistan should be severely sanctioned in addition to protection being provided.Why is everyone else the UKs problem?

We're a Christian country so it seems fair to let in a fellow Christian.
Careful - you'll upset the atheists.
^^^ And your point is?
my mum always said that when she ran from the kgb security the most scared was in the police station and they discussed taking her back. she knew it would be a death sentance on a return. as it was she never got to see her family again.
Are we talking Russian KGB ??. Your family must be nervous about opening the front door.
In Swahili Mr & Mrs is Bwana na Bibi. So I immediately think Asia Bibi as Asia Missus.
Funny how the mind works.
Tell that to my German friend- Mr Cutt
And they are all religions of love.So some people want a woman killed because she allegedly said bad things about a non-existent mythical being. Sums up religion IMHO.
And as I understand it; it all started with a Christian woman drinking some water from the same bucket as the other people. And the Muslims didn’t like that. Just fudgeing unbelievably backwards. Welcome to the 21 century.So some people want a woman killed because she allegedly said bad things about a non-existent mythical being. Sums up religion IMHO.

Don’t all the good things that are done ‘in the name of God’ also not sum up religion?So some people want a woman killed because she allegedly said bad things about a non-existent mythical being. Sums up religion IMHO.

Her religion is only relevant to the danger it puts her in within her home country - as an asylum seeker/refugee her actual religion should not be a qualification nor negative.
One of the main reasons she may seek asylum in the UK is due to the historic ties and links with Pakistan. The UK has the largest Pakistani population outside of Islamic based countries, we essentially created the country by the partitioning of India.
Asia Bibi is a perfectly clear example of what Asylum is there for - persecution and legitimate fear of violence and death at the hands of both the communities and parts of the administration of the country.
It's just a shame that her ethnicity and religion are being sited by some as a reason for or against her being granted asylum here in the UK - that is text book prejudice.
So that's her only connection to the UK, that the UK Apparently has a good history of Pakistani heritage?
I not head of the case until I heard about it last night on This Week. And then read a bit up on the case, and she been working in a field picking berries and asked to fetch some water from a near well and while there found a cup and had a drink of water from it and was told it was forbidden for a christian to drink from the same utensil as a muslim, although there other stuff but seems like a lot witch hunt.And as I understand it; it all started with a Christian woman drinking some water from the same bucket as the other people. And the Muslims didn’t like that. Just fudgeing unbelievably backwards. Welcome to the 21 century.
Does that actually matter? There is a serious threat to live situation. Name one good reason why we shouldn’t allow an asylum application?So that's her only connection to the UK, that the UK Apparently has a good history of Pakistani heritage?

My understanding of the detail is that the actual arrest and senticing was based on blasphemy, yes seriouslyShe did not actually say anything bad, she merely offered a drink of water to a fellow worker. That person took offence to a Christian offering a muslim a drink and exaggerated the situation out of hand. For that she spent 8 years in Jail. Of course the telltale would probably not have been offended if she had been offered money.
I don't think any god worth believing in would want it.Doing good things is fine. It's just the believing in, and doing it because, you believe some made up entity wants you do that gets me. Lots of people are brainwashed with and believe in stuff that is obviously nonsense and they then base their actions on that (up to killing a woman just for saying something that would to any reasonable person be harmless and irrelevant).
Apparently there was a row between her and some Muslim women which ended up with them slagging off each other’s religions. Most of these types of cases in India and Pakistan seem to be a way of settling personal feuds and grudges.My understanding of the detail is that the actual arrest and senticing was based on blasphemy, yes seriously
