God is a socialist...
... according to the Church of England, at least. Its laughable new Faithful Cities report suggests the government adopt soft marxist economic policies that anyone aside from the odd bumbling old labour backbencher will have dismissed decades ago.
A leader in the telegraph is right on point:
Exactly right. The intent, the presentation, and the sheer ideas themselves make the church seem childish in the extreme. This is just another story in the Church's swing leftward that will make me for one ever more proud to be celebrating my religion in a catholic church every sunday
A leader in the telegraph is right on point:
[The reports] overall analysis is socialism tinged with piety. Attacking "market-driven capitalism", sententiously proposing "a living wage rather than a minimum wage" and suggesting that any illegal immigrant who makes it to these shores should be entitled to work and welfare - this is not Christian compassion, but economic and moral childishness.

The problem with that idea is that a living wage is a valid point for many in suburbs and urban areas , and for that matter the countryside trying to make ends meet on minimum wage jobs. We're not all ending up with A levels and upwards in this country (at least historically).
As for asylum seekers seeking work while their claims are being processed, the suggestion comes from trying to stop their exploitation with sub minimum wage work and regulate the job market, again to reduce the job manipulation and reduction for indiginous workers (of whatever background) that such work undercuts.
This further targets organised crime by removing their workers.
