| Kelly condemns multiculturalism |
| 2006-08-25 |
| Ruth Kelly broke with decades of Labour support for multiculturalism as she admitted the Government's failure to impose a single British identity could have led to communities living in 'isolation'. The Communities Secretary became the first Cabinet minister to question the idea that different faiths and races should not be forced to integrate but should be allowed to maintain their own culture. In an extraordinary volte face, she appeared to concede that Government policies had contributed to communities drifting into segregation. |

| #7 The US should have accepted only mooselimb apostates and there won't be this persistant terrorist problem. Your policy makers didn't study how 'em fascistic mossies interact with nons in their own countries, eh? That was/is ignornace. |

| #6 Yep, and we in the U.S. also enable our non-english speaking hispanics to a degree by having bi-lingual ATM's and other crap. Little things can become big things. There is a difference between being courteous to a new-comer and catering to them. Why any western country is still letting the muslims in is beyond me. |

| #5 Duh!, it's the other way around. Islam is not responsible for multi-cultist behavior. That is entirely self-inflicted deficiency. It goes without saying that MCD (multi-culti disorder, not mad cow disease...although it of ten seems like there is a corelation, see Shehag) does facilitate Islam's agenda. |

| #4 Only one community are struggling to integrate and thats because their 'way of life' is superior to ours as they say!!!!. I live in London and only one community continue to complain/not integrate and they are the muslim community of Pakistan background!!!!!Indians,Jews etc are fine. Pakistan and its teaching are the blame for current problems!!!! |

| #3 ...other culture is honoured and feted.. It's the aggressive and fanatical culture of i-slam that is responsible for this nonsense. It certainly is not really 'multiculturalism' that can be upheld by commonsense but dhimmitude to surrender to largely what comes fiercely to demand, subvert and dominate. The Brits are blindly led by appeasenik PC idiotarian "progressives"(not!) and liberals(sapped of commonsense. No other culture there is a threat approaching that of the islamo one. Not Hindus, Buddhist, Bahais, Animists, Wiccans, Rosicrusian or what not But some leftist atheist dolts still herdishly resent Jooos and Christian East Europeans for inexplicable reasons. |

| #1 Ruth Kelly broke with decades of Labour support for multiculturalism as she admitted the Government's failure to impose a single British identity could have led to communities living in 'isolation'. Technically, it's the British-identity community that's been forced into isolation and seclusion. Every other culture is honoured and feted whilst old-line Brits are being increasingly marginalised. I wonder if they're starting to seethe yet? |
