It would be so nice if they would go back to a preferable islamist state.

Being a person who believes in civil liberties, they should have freedom of speech. I'd ignore them personally and not attend so I wouldn't give them any audience.

Europe sold itself out to moslem extremism when they imported labor due to their low birth rate and such. They let in tons of moslems who have no sense of national pride for their adopted country and in the case of Britain, the country they were born. Many of the pakistanis were let in because of Britains habit of extending visitation to citizens of its former colonies. Many of these youths have suffered unemployment, unacceptance, bullying and such and never felt part of English society.

America has about 3 million moslems I think, the difference between our moselm immigrants and europe, by and large is that we chose more carefully. They were more educated and maybe by sheer luck or by design they have tried to assimilate into America as immigrants have done repeatedly in our history. In fact, in there is a concern in some parts of America (the san fernando valley area of LA for example) by moslem parents that their children are intermarrying at a fast rate with non moslems. Many have banded and started elementary schools and kindergartens. The daughters especially are loathe to marry a 'traditional' moslem after experiencing gender equality in America. Its not just moslems, jewish parents have had the same concerns as well, due to the high level of interfaith marriage. For me, its a good thing to see that people of different backgrounds are getting together. It reduces racism and prejudice.

Anyway, England and Europe have a permanent problem with many of their moslems. They are being bullied about rights and such by moslem extremists and activists both inside and outside europe. France has had enough and are making laws trying to curtail but overall i think its too late.

I think the best way to reduce the power of the middle east is to take away its source of money: oil. The G8 nations should ban together and convert their economies from an oil based one. Overtime push for their domestic car industries to convert to hybrids and/or electric cars. Expand the use of nuclear, natural gas and other means to heat homes and businesses. Having an oil based economy keeps the region in power. Its my one issue (amongst a few) with the Republican party in America, they are so far in the pocket of big oil, they are trying to expand the production of oil instead of looking at ways to reduce our society's need for it.

There's nothing wrong with having a low birth rate. There is a problem, however, with being lazy, complacent, sanctimonious, and entitled; attributes exhibited by a majority of Britain's native population. They vote for free healthcare, free welfare, free social security; they vote for communism, sloth and socialism; they vote for laziness and weakness. Only after voting and being a battered, lazy people does a low birthrate come into play. Lazy Britons require Charles Ponzi to continue the gluttony. Hence, millions of 'moosleems' to work menial jobs, pay taxes, and *hopefully* contribute to British society.

Only it's not working. Left-wing liberalism is destroying the 1st world, and by extention destroying planet earth.

Britain has 3 million muslims the US has between 1.8 and 2.6 million, considering Britains much smaler population muslims in Britain are a larger minority in the UK than in the US.

You people really have to stop making these grand conclusions on the basis of a tiny group of idiots. Its like judging the white English on the basis of EDL activities.

True things are not all hunky dory but the mindless howls of "Broken Britain" suggest there was a time where everything was great. I am really interested in when this golden age ended.

Also Kimbop the British vote for using societies resources to make sure the losers of capitalism are not left behind in squalor.

You mean so the losers of government-sanctioned corporatism and financial looting are thrown a few crumbs so they don't get too uppity over having no real opportunities. And if they do get uppity, it's okay, just so long as it's directed at the middle class (ex. if those looters had actually tried to storm the banks or Buckingham palace, they'd have no doubt been mowed down with real bullets).

Anyway, yeah, the government really cares about the poor Rolling Eyes

@Kimbop

You are lolling me after that rant about people voting for communism and that the reason the birth rate is coming down is because we are lazy.
Nothing to do with a rise in living standards, better contraception emancipation of women it�s because we are too lazy to have sex.

Also the closest thing the country has had to Communism was the 1983 Labour Party manifesto and that was soundly defeated. To infer that any government in that last 30 years has been anything close to socialist let alone communist is amusing.

@visitorq

You are right governments don�t care, but the people do and that�s why no party could win an election on the premise of dismantling the welfare state. Although the current lot are testing that theory.

I think we are in agreement that what the people get is meager; therefore we should expand the welfare state. As for the looting comment yeah I agree if the looting was even a little political they would have been met with more force.

How much more welfare do you reckon would be required to overcome the governmental oppression suffered by these poor folks? Would a few hundred quid entice them to put down their "Death to the West" signs?
