 'Right on' critics are ignoring problems caused by immigration, government tsar warns after Muslim groups condemn her 'inflammatory call' for newcomers to take a vow of allegiance19/01/17 Dame Louise Casey says Ghettos have formed in areas like Bradford because the pace and scale of immigration has been 'too much' and some towns and cities have been transformed 'out of all recognition'. Muslims in some parts of the country are so cut off from the rest of society that they believe the majority of Britons share their faith, according to her shock new report. And there is not just segregation in Muslim communities, Dame Louise said that there are hundreds of electoral wards where there are 40 per cent non-white British residents or more, including the Jewish dominated area of Kersal in Salford. In one borough of Sheffield there is a 6,000-strong Roma or eastern European community living together (bottom left). And the Polish community in Britain has grown by 500,000 in a decade, with many heading to areas like Boston, Lincolnshire. But Mohammed Shafiq, chief executive of the Ramadhan Foundation, has condemned the report as 'inflammatory, divisive, pandering to the agenda of the far right'. Britons should learn Polish and Urdu to be more welcoming to immigrants, says Cambridge University professor 18/01/17 [DailyMail] Wendy Ayres-Bennett, professor of French philology and linguistics at Cambridge University said it was 'very important to think of integration as a two-way street.'
