While I cannot speak for the whole country, my area is in uproar. Well.. I live in a very well-to-do part of Totteridge. On one side of me are acres upon acres of open land and farms, on the other side are council estates and stuff like that. I hadn't even seen a black/ethnic person in Totteridge until about 5/6 years ago, and now it is overwhelmed. Crime has risen a great deal - and while that might seem like nitpicking, it is the way it is.
What's happening overall, is the country is being flooded by asylum seekers from every corner of the planet. England doesn't know how to say 'no', and those who were born here are given a back seat to these new arrivals. Obviously the media now goes on about it non-stop, but even without media, it is openly seen.
While this isn't to say every single person who comes here is this way, the stereotype can be made because of the majority who are here to pull this country apart for their own benefits.
I remember the Prime Minister saying "We are going to clear 3rd world debt", and giving a few billion £ to any needy country. I walked through London, and saw hundreds of homeless Brits, who had been ignored while British money went to some country in the middle of nowhere. While generosity is a good thing, some of that generosity needs to also be given to those resident to this country who are in bad positions. The same can be said for charity missions here like... Red Nose Day. They raise a good 60million or more, all of which goes to Africa. While I do feel sorry for poor Africans, I feel just as sorry for Homeless Brits, but nobody gives a flying fuck about them.
It's only a matter of time before this cookie crumbles.
