I've Muslim friends and they're basically just culturally British. I've a Buddhist friend too, also British. I think it matters more that we have a culturally unified country. With shared values as much as possible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't on appearance something ive never said btw so not sure why thats being asked But if you have someone with you who is from that culture who speaks aload of languages they can give you a better idea. So for example i went liverpool with one of my friends who is indian (he is a tamil) he told me in liverpool when we went there was a smaller community in london as he has family there. I got no reason to question him 29 minutes ago, magnkarl said: Have you been to Leicester or Luton? London has a higher ethnically diverse population than the rest, but Birmingham is about 48% white, while a place like Leicester is 40% white. OFNS Interestingly enough, London has boroughs in both the top and bottom, depending on where you live. Yes ive been luton it was one of thw two places i experienced racism. You couldnt pay me to go back there. Never been Leicester. Thanks for sure. I think central london is probably less diverse but outskirts is more diverse. East london places like stratford are quite diverse communities 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my closest mates who is a turkish muslim says he is the fakest muslim. He eats pork, drinks alcohol, gambles and doesnt do anything for Ramadan. I know a few like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. It would be interesting to know what the recent rioters would deem "British values" and what the country would look and feel like if utopia were reached.. I'd be fairly confident their views would differ from mine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What matters is the majority share the same core values. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liverpool does feel a lot whiter than other big cities whenever I visit tbf, but then most places do when you're from Birmingham! It is traditionally an immigrant city though, my mom's Irish and a lot of her family have settled in Liverpool 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xann Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 If you're making the trip to Selhurst Park (change at Balham then Northern Line south 2 stops) or Craven Cottage (270 bus from Putney Bridge) you can see the nearest thing to a model multicultural neighbourhood, ie not like Bradford.
