RE the Bishop of Rochester's no-go zone comments. Blaming the Government and blaming the Muslims for the disestablishment of the Anglican church is ridiculous.

The Rev Michael Nazir-Ali said that if it were not for the saving grace of the black majority churches and the "recent arrival" of people from Eastern Europe - "the Christian cause in many of our cities would have looked a lost one."

Why is he skipping the most important issue that most of the European immigrants are Catholics and it is in fact the Catholic Church that is a threat to the Anglican Church?
