I ask this because to me it seems the second world war was to keep Britain 'British',... so how come that so many goverments in the UK have allowed so many non-british to move and stay here,... and now we have all the problems we do.
Make sense?
I can't help but think of all those in WWII who put their lives on the line to keep the Germans out,.. and now the goverment has willy-nilly let nearly every other nationality into our country and it's now really going downhill... this country seems to be getting more and more tense as trouble becomes more and more severe on a daily basis.
It infuriates me to know that this is going on. I'm British and bloody proud of it. What's going on Mr Blair? What happened to the immigration laws???
Do you think Britain would be a better, safer, more tolerant, law-abiding, non-fundementalist, and generally trouble free place to live if immigration back in the 1940's-1950's had been heavily restricted?
Would like to know your answers,.. from anyone.

I agree with you 100%. I feel like the odd one out sometimes when I go to certain areas.

You have made a couple of mistakes, Russia won the war, the U.S. came second and we came third. the war had nothing to do with keeping Britain British, the Germans had no intention of attacking Britain if we hadn't joined with the french. we fought to stop the Germans from dominating Europe. immigration is the life blood of this country for a number of reasons. without immigrants we'd have an aging population with a shrinking tax and investment base, who would be paying the tax for your pension and topping up private pension funds. who would be doing the cleaning in the early hours, where would you get security guards from. homogeneous societies tend to be dull and moribund, diverse ones lively, vibrant and creative. but most important of all could you live without chicken tika massala, and where would you buy your beer and cigarettes after 6:00 pm and on Christmas day

If I had too decide on it may be Britain as they have been the only actual us of a from start to end who have been interior the allies. Plus Hitler replaced into making plans techniques on a thank you to invade united statesa. after the take over of england which by no skill handed off. so which you should provide Britain credit for the country which by no skill gave in. united statesa. purely have been given in touch one with the aid of fact of Pearl Harbour and 2 the British had to pay them to help them in D-day, that's actual stupid with the aid of undeniable fact that faster or later united statesa. could be decrease than attack in the event that they did no longer connect. besides the undeniable fact which you would be able to no longer write united statesa. off with the aid of Hawaii and for helping the allies in D-day, yet without a loose Britain interior the forties it could have been harder to push the Nazi's back with the aid of geographical region, we could face it you will locate mainland Europe on a sparkling day from the two Dover or Dungeness and the subsequent nearest place could have been Iceland with little protection stress kit or centers making it harder for united statesa. to push the Nazi's back in the event that they might in any respect, yet I do stand with the help of that D-day might have failed without American advice. individually i think of Britain won the war yet we could be happy it ended the way it ended with the defeat of the Nazi's.

Good questions. And a carefully-reasoned reply may be found in Melanie Phillips' new book Londonistan. Here she traces the history of political-correctness and the deadly effect it has had on freedom and public safety in England. I recommend you read this book to get a good historical background on England's present-day mess.

If only Germany had won,,
again the USA fought the wrong people.
