UK will be like the 3rd world country? Wow!

Actually, I live in a diverse suburb. While you're right, that different cultures can't mesh together, we should be helping them become British like us using assimilation programmes which can be done by the neighbourhood. My neighbourhood does that and there's little crime and other problems. So, I think the Government should be building houses, we've plenty of space, just keep Scotland and Wales low-populated for farming, and help foreigners become British through assimilation programmes.

Ah yes, it's not down to immigrants once again isn't it?

4.5 million additional people, many of whom will be significantly less well off than existing residents, will bring the average down. It's basic economics.

OK genius, so why did Labour manage to bring child poverty down so precipitously while increasing immigration?

Why will immigrants be less well off than existing residents? They also hold jobs and create demand.

In fact, EU immigrants are the only group who are net contributors to the UK economy, presumably because they come here singly in their prime to work, rather than needing support and schooling in infancy and support and healthcare in old age.

It's time for you to accept that sometimes the free market fetishism in government has adverse consequences.

You are forever banging on about manipulation and misdirection by the powers that be and then you turn around and try to convince starving children that the foreigner living next door has been stealing food out of their mouth.

You have so much to learn. You think you can just make economic migrants want to be British? I don't know why I even respond to people like you. I have met people who hate British culture yet you believe we can assimilate them into society. Good ******* luck with that!

British like us? So, just to clarify, you're advocating diversity while simultaneously advocating 'un-diversification'?

How do you 'make them live us'? A sermon? A very long stick with a carrot dangling from the end? A sprinkling of behavioural modification here, a dash of social engineering there?

When will people learn you can't engineer human beings to conform to your morality or your way of life? They aren't cyborgs, there's no mute button, you can't just boot them up and power them down.

Well, actually, my parents are from East Africa and Muslim. They're educated so they got good jobs and told me the best way to survive in a new country was to assimilate into the culture, they did that, I grew up here and so already had the culture and they helped new migrants to our city to assimilate into the English culture. So, it's not impossible.

Where I live, say 100,000 or so in the town. 70% non-English. And guess what. No English culture exists. Rarely hear English spoken. Segregation sky high. And a complete dump it is. Don't compare your one experience with reality. Look at Birmingham. West, East, North and South London, Luton...the list goes on. Absolute **** holes.

I agree with your parents however, patently, many don't. How do I know this? Look anywhere, in any which direction you choose.

Millions of migrants don't assimilate, they congregate en masse (in certain areas of the country). They socialise within, they marry within and they often refuse to adopt the native tongue. That's not multiculturalism, it's the complete opposite - it's cultural displacement and cultural homogeneity. No wonder local communities are furious; wouldn't you be?

Yes, because they feel alienated by England. However, if other migrants who assimilated into English culture helped them assimilate working with the Government, it wouldn't be impossible. And there are already some programmes helping to do that, not only in my city, but other cities, too.

Like I said to Gear:

1. It isn't our responsibility to adapt. Why should I come to your house and expect you to adapt to my way of life? That would be ridiculous.

2. Whether you believe in this or not, the facts are clear - it isn't working and it hasn't worked. The experiment has long since failed, even Angela Merkel has conceded this.

Wait, you're a migrant? I thought you were ethnically English? Well, either way, I believe that migrants can definitely assimilate into English culture with the right help.

You are very very blind. The fact many arrive with no English and make no effort to learn it (when the facilities and help are available) shows the effort to integrate. Im sure the extremists who rallied to promote sharia in east London were feeling alienated. Good god!

Well, that's the problem. You believe, I observe. This isn't a religion, belief is irrelevant, it's people's lives - their communities have been absolutely wiped out in the space of 20 years. They aren't your social experiment.

I'm not a migrant.

Because they need the help of assimilated migrants so they believe it works, but there aren't enough since there haven't been many assimilation programmes. However, over time, they will naturally assimilate, like the Jamaicans, or we can do it in less time by asking assimilated migrants to help new migrants assimilate into English culture.

Well, we either help them assimilate or more communities will be wiped out. Choose one.

English culture does not exist anymore in these areas so what culture do your refer to?

Excuse me?

I'm going to shoot you in the stomach or a stab you in the neck. Pick one. My answers don't exist within the confines of your beliefs or your religion. I'm not your play toy.

I pick door number three. A reduction in the actual problem, alongside 68% of the population (according to the British Social Attitudes Survey).

By "reduction", are you suggesting we kick non-assimilated migrants out of the country, because you're just sounding like BNP at that point. And anyway, my answers are perfectly reasonable answers as migrants can either assimilate into the culture. Or the culture will be removed from the city by the migrants. I choose to help them assimilate rather than remove English culture.
