The majority of people I have spoken with relocate due to property prices, the nanny state, better weather and a multitude of other reasons. There are four expats, including yourself, who claim to have moved for reasons similar to your own and yet none of them appear to have experienced anything particularly negative in the UK - no more so than in other areas of the country where poverty and crime are prevalent regardless of the communities ethnic make up.

Just because others aren't singing your song, doesn't mean we are not aware of the issues concerning extremists and not just Islamic extremists however, only by coming together and discussing the issues and seeking solutions can we hope to eradicate extremism in all it's forms. However, you can not tar everybody with the same brush and there is a fine line between giving an opinion and a hate crime and you are extremely close to crossing that line.

Brian, hopefully the thread can stay so long as it doesn't become personal or overly heated.

Personally I came to Hungary for both economic and lifestyle reasons, pretty much the same as every immigrant in the UK!

Apart from my previous rant I sincerely promise to be polite to the OP, even though I find their views both transparent and abhorrent!

Yes. The thread can stay provided it doesn't descend into personal abuse & name calling etc.

Remember that any abusive post can be reported so that myself as moderator for this forum or a supermoderator can review & act if deemed necessary. This goes for Private message and karma messages also.

Thanks

Too many have left because they can't be bothered with some of the nonsense over the years and I know from PM's that others, including myself, post less regularly and are very careful what we post about because of personal attacks as nobody needs it in their life when we are all just trying to help people out!

It would be a shame for forums such as these to lose resources such as yours. On that basis, please try to see past the unpleasantness brought about by such an emotional topic as this.

Having lived in societies either as abhorrent as apartheid in South Africa as a child, or witnessing total multiculturalism as in Amsterdam, I have found that whenever these conversations take place, two main parties tend to "have at it" !
There are always parties who are offended or disgusted and end up as collateral damage.

Personal abuse is always the last form of the debate, it is then down to the likes of your good self to try to rise above that, view it as it is and go about our lives, in the comfortable knowledge that they are what they are, words.

Is only my two pence worth !

I hope you see my viewpoint, stay, have your say, and try to be the bigger man !

Sound like my mum !!!
