Look at it this way. When we or the Brits get enough of those working foreigners over here or there, they will pick up our habits along with our jobs. They will stop having kids, while we will all go on welfare.

In the 1960s and the 1970s, the United Kingdom imported tens of thousands of laborers from Bangladesh and Pakistan, to fill the manpower gaps in the textile mills of Northern England. Now their descendants number more than two million. And despite living in the United Kingdom for more than half a century, these people have shown no interest in assimilating to the British culture.

British culture being....? Britain doesn't have any culture... unless you count binge-drinking, teen pregnancy and degeneracy as culture. Besides, they seem to have assimilated just fine but I'm not sure what you'd expect of them. Come round for some fish and chips and a beer with you?

And is that a bad thing?
Diversity of thought is not bad at all.

It is if you're bryant.coleman who is scared of anyone with a darker shade of skin than him.
