The trouble is if you hear about the way schools are run nowadays:
Christmas does not exist it is ... Winter festival
No longer are you allowed to sing the national anthem
Say the lords prayer
The list does go on but it is not the immigrants asking for us to change this it is some Muppet on the council or in parliament. We can not be blaming Muslims, blacks, Europeans or any of the other cultures/religions/races for these things happening.
I would never dream of going to live in canada and saying:
You cant celebrate Thanksgiving or
You cant celebrate Halloween.
The trouble with the press is they make out like it is the immigrants fault and it's not you talk to any of the 'foriegners' i work with and they laugh at how stupid our government is for changing these things.
If it does offend people by celebrating Christmas whether it be a Jehovah's witness or anyone else it is the rules of the country. No one forces you to come or stay but like i said not many people get offended by it.

I don't know about your Balkan gangs Rich but I don't read UK newspapers anymore as they are so full of sh*t!

Posting such comments without evidence can only harm others views of the 'nice iraqis' that you know. Its a horrible thought that children are being harmed in this way and if the police dont have evidence and you do then perhaps you should be talking to the police. Plus, who are the customers of these gangs? the ones who are raping the children?? are they all iraqis or an assortment of races and nationalities, including british??

1) People may bat an eyelid at a non-white person (Kelowna has something like a 97% white demographic) more out of curisority and surprise than anything, tho admittedly there are white trash rednecks and upper class racists aplenty, they tend to keep their opinions and comments to the privacy of the dinner table.
2) Excppeting rednecks, nobody generally would really care less what colour race and creed a parents children were. There are certainly no 'race police' wandering about noting peoples creed and colour and checking for good family fit.
Good lordy, you couldn't make it up could ya
