i live in england and am 76 years old, in my life time i have seen many changes, in the city where ilive bradford. there is a great muslim population about 50%, before the muslims came the irish the jews, the poles etc, but the other immigrants, buckled down worked hard, and benifited the city. with the arrival of the muslims things changed, there was many christian districts slowly taken over they have tried and in most cases has had success in getting local laws to favour them, they are so powerfull now that if you say one word out of place to criticise islam, you are slapped down by our council and threatend with death by young hothead muslims, the character of what once was a great and friendly city has gone.
