Scientology gifts under review

I thought Scientology was viewed more as a cult in the UK?

London: The City of London police force said on Wednesday it had launched a review of its hospitality policy after newspapers reported the Church of Scientology had spent thousands of pounds in gifts and entertainment for officers.

Invitations to charity dinners, music concerts and a film premiere were all accepted by City of London police officers, ranging from constables to superintendents, the Guardian and the Daily Mail said.

2. Its viewed as a cult... but look a little deeper and it will amaze you

how influential they are on our politicians, local officials, hospitals, zoning, etc.... I can tell you they have a good chunk of land in the middle of a city that could be thriving... but oddly it is overlooked...
