Javid, an MP with the British Conservative Party who is the son of Pakistani Muslim immigrants, linked to a page on Gov.uk which said one of the hopes of the refugee resettlement program is that it will "transform communities in the process."

The responses on Twitter were overwhelmingly negative.

I'm sure it will work just great just as it's worked out in Rotherham!
