What happens then is that more people find it hard to separate the minority of immigrants from the whole, and then things start drastically breaking down, and hatred/ill-feeling starts gathering momentum.

Happens everywhere. Happens here, happens in Iraq or Afghanistan. Let's take how angry and vengeful people get at this, or at Boston or 9/11, and try to imagine what someone might feel when an American or British bomb has wiped out their entire family. Which we have done to thousands of people.

A Census that is 12 years out of date, and even then only factors in those who bothered to complete it, which let's get real, is gonna be a TINY percentage of immigrants here to milk the system, more likely none of them, is no indication at all of what it's like in a lot of England atm here and now in 2013.

So you completely write off hard facts in favor of your imagination, based on thin air. Here's the data from your 2011 Census:

Christianity remained the largest group; 59% (33.2 million) [...] The second largest response category in 2011 was no religion. This increased 10 percentage points. Interestingly, Christianity is not down everywhere. Newham, Haringey, Brent, Boston and Lambeth have all shown increases in the Christian population.

The vast majority of the population of England & Wales are white - 86%, [...] In London in 2011, 45% (3.7 million) out of 8.2 million usual residents were White British. The number of mixed people went over 1m for the first time, too.

So you have a white minority in London. Big deal. We have a white minority in at least four or five States. The white population overall is about 70%, compared to your 86%.
Meanwhile, your little speck on the map spent centuries invading and interfering in over one quarter of the entire planet, stealing territory and forcing your culture, religion and illegal hard drugs on to non-whites at the barrel of a gun.
You know, the shit that makes you proud to be British.

The fact is, we are full, have no money (according to the gov't, so interpret that as 'no money for abc, but plenty for xyz', as per all govt's), and more and more people are at 'breaking point' when it comes to tolerating, and paying for, fanatics to be here marching against the very ideals that allow them to be here marching against them in the first place. That spills over into tarring everyone with the same brush, and voila, civil unrest and some fresh riots are the order of the day.

Do you take the same position with regard to white fanatics (fascists) marching?
