Multicultural education is basically a good thing in and of itself. However, it can be a problem if it goes so far afield of the facts in an attempt to be all-inclusive of cultural/ethnic/racial/gender groups, even if the contributions are marginal. Then it is patronizing, not educational.

Keith Vaz was conflating two issues there. It is possible for someone to be happy with a diverse and multicultural Britain but still express concern about foreign workers coming into the country to do jobs that British workers could do. By the way we did ask to be diverse and multicultural: metaphorically, when we went and colonised a third of the world, and literally, when we invited in workers from India and the West indies in the 50's.

People might realize that the stereotypes they have been fed all their life are utter BS.
Oh noes!
