Being an immigrant (from danger) himself he reminds us that "most immigrants didn't come here for the culture they came for the money". Well said Slaninar, had I said that even though it were true I would have been castigated by the very same people who advocate enforced multiculturalism. Hand wringing and accusations of BNP and EDL sympathies would abound, just as their names were raised earlier simply because I offered an opposing point of view.
I'm not an immigrant. Not myself. Wouldn't want to be unless really forced. My city has been full of refugies from other republics since 1992. Completely changed the look of it, the culture (for a more savage one IMO). And these are the same nation people, not some foreigners - same nation, but from rural, or mountainous parts. Bad manners, smuggling etc. So I completely understand how a UK born man could feel about immigrants. They come because they have to, that is OK, but you don't have to like them.
Having said all this, once you realise they are DIFFERENT, not better or worse, you can live with it. All the things have both good and bad sides, try to make the most of it.
Most things done in a hurry need to be done again - patiently.
