I'm not going to get into a debate about Muslims either as I've done enough of that on the Europe forum.
well if they didnt have so many kids and worked full time then they wouldnt have to live like that. im not ignorant, just honest. but think whatever you want, its definitely a coincidence that the ugliest areas are majority muslim.

Maybe in that particular area but not here it isn't - the ugliest areas are majority white British, and they mostly live in ugly high-rise flats with St. George's flags hanging off their balcony. These areas are full of loud hoodlums who harass other people and steal things and set fire to cars. Yes, white British people are doing this, not Muslims.

That's different from the US, here almost all the poor, deprived inner city areas are minority. But muslims aren't poor, at least as immigrant groups go.

Flipping through the NYC forum, there's often a thread "how do I get into the projects?!" Usually a young, single mom with kids. Often working, but a poorly paying job at that.

There are poor minority areas - but some of the worst here, with the worst reputations and highest rates of crime, are majority White - no sane immigrant wants to live in these areas. Many do of course, but not if they can help it. Indians in particular are very successful here and reside in middle-class areas.

What?

Is that a joke?

My mum only had 2 children me and my brother and she only was able to afford to live in a council house in Lomdons Southeast she works very hard and what you said is actually offensive to me and many of the decent people I know where I live.

indians are mostly highly educated and wealthy as many of them are doctors. same cant be said about Pakistanis.

Hmm. I guess minority and immigrant mean about the same there.
