[The Sherman]

This should probably be in society section but I generally vlaue the opinions of people on here more.

If you go to the news section you will see some rubbish statistics and daily mail infused nonsense being spouted about the war protestors.
The thing is I think they have a small point. I do think that Britain is losing something and that there is seperate communities in Britain now. Would like to know if im wrong and how we do all get together and hold hands and sing and live in peace in Britain!
How do we get better at racial/religious integration and does anyone have any examples of countries that have done it successfully?

Britain's always been a divided nation, look at socio economic map of London of 1899 (I think) the poor are described as "vicious semi-criminal" things have improved immeasurably, but could be better.
Inter marriage is the next step, when that happens without comment are dissent we're there.
But, history tells a slightly different tale, in 1930s almost half of marriages involving Jews in Germany were to non-Jews.
It was the Germans themselves who deemed tha Jews were'nt German.

Britain is more tolerant, but that could be to its detriment,

Apologies Mani. but with all the different races and religions, in modern times, there is only one group that is calling for the overthrow of this country, admittedly, they are the extremists, but this goverment is giving them money instead of outlawing them, which actually encourages them.

You have to ask, Why?.

[naomi24]

Lonnie, why are you apologising to Mani. He tells us he's Christian.

[Lonnie]

Hi naomi, thats very true, but he has a Muslim past, and i'm guessing he probably has some family and friends in that religion who he's close to.
I guess I didn't want to hurt his feelings.

Now keyplus!!!!!!!

[naomi24]

Ah, Lonnie - thoughtul as ever. x

[naomi24]

oops....thoughtful.

What about the Scots, the Welsh, the Irish and half a dozen of the Cornish?
Before that (during even) we've had Mosley's facists and the Communists, how far do you want to go back?
Guy Fawkes?
These people speak for themselves and their organisations, not for all Muslims, until everyone is prepared to stand up and speak up for our social and political model they'll exploit the vacuum.
In the meantime drunken, promiscuous lascivious behaviour in the press on the tele and on the streets is manna from heaven to them.
Britain has many problems until we identify them and work towards OUR solution they will promote theirs.
