The All-Party Parliamentary Group for International Freedom of Religion or Belief (APPG) reported in June that asylum claims from Christian converts are being unfairly rejected because officials are making basic mistakes about the faith.

The Home Office, it appears, isn’t sticking to its own guidelines. MPs said some converts were rejected because they couldn’t name the twelve apostles or recall ‘Bible trivia’, despite evidence that they practised Christianity.
