I like the exploration of change and what multiculturalism brings with that, thats why I work in travel.

It's not perfect, buts it's better than going to Spain demanding Ham Egg and Chips

Will the new EES checks affect your work?

Bit of a caveat i'd add is that e.g. the technological capability to inflict mass casualties was off the scale in WW1 and 2 compared to e.g. the crusades etc.

It also depends on total populations. E.g WW1 killed 1% of the involved population, whereas the English Civil War killed 5%. The Battle of Towton killed 1% of the population in a single day!

Not a caveat Silly cares for as it doesn't tell the right nonsense he is trying to claim.

I think in many parts thats an over played narrative based on extremism in religious views rather than cultural views, which happens in all religions BTW.

I grew up in a massively multicultural upbringing amongst Turkish, West Indian, Bangla, Pakistani and as a community it worked well, loads of community activities, loads of integration, many of those people although loyal to their roots seeing themselves as British.

People often don't want to accept that in many places multiculturalism has been a success, but it has and its evident in food, music, art, sport and in many communities around the country

This! All day. Great post!!!!!
