Disadvantages: Erosion of our way of life

I would like to say first and foremost that I completely understand why people would want to emigrate to another country to find a better life for themselves and their families, I would do it myself if I thought it was necessary.

It doesn’t matter about their colour or creed providing that, if they come here they accept our way of life and they make a contribution to this country, after all it is this country that is providing them with the better life that they are seeking.

But if they come here to find a better life then they must accept that better life and not try and change the values and culture that have been developed over centuries of war and struggles fought for by untold masses of British men and women who laid down their lives to preserve our freedom and our way of life, it this freedom and culture that has provided the lifestyle and affluence that has attracted them here in the first place

We are already seeing the erosion of one of our most precious values, FREEDOM OF SPEECH; we can no longer say what we think if it may offend someone’s religion or race, we can no longer tell jokes about different races or religions.

There is a quotation by somebody that always sticks in my mind

"I may disagree totally with what you are saying but I will defend to the death your right to say it”

This no longer applies as many have found out in the courts.

The most worrying trend coming from the influx of immigrants is the total inflexibility of the fundamentalist Muslims.

They have come to this country either for a better life or to escape persecution in their own country and yet they wish to change this countrie's values to that of the one they have escaped from. They hate democracy because this allows people to disagree with their views. They hate freedom of speech because this enables people to criticise their beliefs. They hate the equality of women because this might challenge their belief of the dominant male role. They wish to exterminate Gay people because this offends their religious beliefs. They hate the sexual freedom that exists in this country and would love to stone a few women to death for adultery.

Salmon Rushdie is still in hiding because he wrote a book that offended the fundamentalists and now they are calling for the Pope to be murdered because he has offended their religion

My opinion is that if this country and its culture and way of life offends you so much, please take advantage of one of our other great freedoms, THE RIGHT TO LEAVE. We did not force you to come here, you chose to come so accept our way of life or clear off

Summary: You are welcome here but accept our values and our way of life
