The UK's Stance - perhaps not so much doom and gloom

If you follow UK politics you'll know that immigration is probably the principal topic of discussion nowadays and now immigration is openly discussed and examined in detail. An example being Channel 4 News a few months ago ran a documentary special even outlining the nationality of immigrants which progress and most integrate against those that don't. Another light at the end of the tunnel is the fact that Gordon Brown the current PM plans to introduce a points system much like that of many other countries for all immigration originating from outside the EU.

If the Conservative Party win the next election then they will actually cap immigration and you can be sure that muslim immigration to the UK at least will drop substantially. Also in the last few years Polish Catholics have migrated to the UK in vast numbers and may soon outnumber all the muslims in the UK. Also these Poles are principally made up of young couples who plan to have lots of babies and good luck to them.

Incidentally if you fancy a view of how many Brits and Europeans in general think when it comes to islam then you should check out the comical monologues provided by Pat Condell on YouTube. Once at YouTube try searching for the channel patcondell. I recommend his monologues 'Appeasing Islam' and most recently 'The Religion Of Fear'.
