Immigration is British society's biggest problem, shows survey of public
Poll for thinktank reveals one in three believes immigration is the most important cause of division
Immigration is regarded by the public as the biggest issue facing British society, a major new survey taking stock of the state of the country reveals.
One in three people believes tension between immigrants and people born in the UK is the major cause of division, while well over half regard it as one of the top three causes.
Over the past two decades, both immigration and emigration have increased to historically high levels, with those entering the country exceeding those leaving by more than 100,000 in every year since 1998.
...
The poll results are being released as communities secretary Eric Pickles prepares to give a major speech this week in which he will announce further efforts to aid integration. Pickles will say that a mastery of English is the key to social mobility and essential if people of different generations want to get on. He will stress that a shared language is vital for our economy. And he will highlight it is as the key to uniting people and increasing their understanding of one another.
Sunder Katwala, director of British Future, said the survey highlighted a national anxiety about immigration to which national politicians needed to respond. However, he also noted that the results suggested that when people thought about their local areas, there was less concern. While 30% placed immigration first when thinking about tensions facing British society as a whole, only 19% chose it as the most divisive issue in their own area.
There was also very little correlation between the geographical distribution of immigrants and the levels of concern. Immigration was regarded as the most divisive issue for 19% of people in north-east England and 20% in Wales – where the 2011 census shows one in 20 people were born abroad – and for 20% of Londoners, where immigrants make up one in three of the population.
Katwala said: "People are obviously very anxious about immigration. But I was struck by how much higher it was as a national rather than a local tension. That to me suggests that managing local tensions is obviously very important, but it is probably not the answer entirely because people have this national-level concern.

Times keskiviikkona 16.01:
Uutinen kuvan kanssa kertoo "Men groomed girls with drugs before horrible abuse". Yhdeksän miestä on syytettynä oikeudessa vuosia jatkuneesta alaikäisten tyttöjen hyväksikäytöstä ja edelleenkauppaamisesta. Että juttu on uutisissa ja että juttu on oikeudessa, kertoo muutoksesta. BBC:n ensimmäinen raportti po. aihepiiristä hyllytettiin kokonaan, eikä toinenkaan herättänyt "vakavaa" keskustelua.
Juttu on Timesin paperiversiossa näkyvästi kolmossivulla. Googlaamalla nimillä löytyy?
"Kamar Jamil, Akhtar Dogar, Assad Hussain, ...." Tai terminologialla: "grooming"
Meillä on aivan samoista ...staneista tullutta porukkaa, eikä tänne Euroopan laidalle valikoidu parhaimmisto vaan pikemminkin toisinpäin? Yli 20 vuotta sitten Suomen paras rikostoimittaja Hannes Markkula kirjoitti vastaavasta ilmiöstä helsingissä Iltasanomiin. Silloin oli kyseessä ravintola jonka asiakaskunta koostu kaikenikäisistä mamumiehistä ja varhaisteini-suomitytöistä, -ja meno oli kuin helvetistä.
Laitan tän tänne, koska liittyy myös Britannian maahanmuuttoon

QuoteUp to 70,000 Romanian and Bulgarian migrants a year 'will come to Britain' when controls on EU migrants expire
Migration watchdog says workers will be attracted by higher wages and benefits
Cap on Romanians and Bulgarians is set to expire this year
Total immigration from nations could soar to 250,00 over five years
Up to 70,000 Bulgarians and Romanians will travel to Britain each year when they finally gain open access to the jobs market, a report claims today.
Almost 29million people from the two countries will be free to work in Britain from the end of this year when temporary controls on new EU migrants expire.
But although ministers have their own estimate of the scale of the influx, they refuse to reveal it.
The figure is likely to be the crucial factor in deciding whether the Government will hit the Prime Minister's goal of cutting net migration – the difference between those arriving and leaving each year – to 'tens of thousands'
The report by the pressure group MigrationWatch says Romanians and Bulgarians will add between 30,000 and 70,000 to our population in each of the next five years. This is partly based on the events of 2004 when immigration soared after Poland and seven other nations joined the EU.
The report estimates an average of 50,000 Romanians and Bulgarians will arrive here each year, a total of 250,000.
Tavallaan voi olla iloinen, että britit vihdoinkin alkavat saada omien tekojensa mukaan. "Jumalan myllyt", jne.
En siis sääli brittejä itseään, mutta heidän tekojensa seuraukset näyttävät kansaantuvan myös meidän kannettavaksemme, joilla ei ole ollut mitään tekemistä brittiläisen imperiumin ja sen rikosten kanssa.

Varmaan monelle on tullut Enoch Powellia ikävä. Olisi kannattanut ehkäpä hetki kuunnella ja pohtia, ennen rasisti-huutoja?
En ole yhtään yllättynyt että maahanmuutto huolestuttaa,
tässsä varmaan osasyy siihen:
QuoteExtremists attend more than 200 university events
Islamic extremists preached at more than 200 university events last year raising fresh fears over radicalisation on campus.
By Tom Whitehead, Security Editor7:00AM GMT 12 Jan 2013
A dozen events featured speakers with links to the fanatical group Hizb ut Tahrir – a controversial organisation banned by the National Union of Students.
Extremists were invited to a host of events despite criticism from Theresa May, the Home Secretary, that universities were "complacent" in tackling the risk of radicalisation.
The research, by campaign group Student Rights, found a total of 214 university events featured known extremists last year.
The most frequent speaker was Hamza Tzortzis who was promoted at 48 events,
Mr Tzortzis has called for an Islamic state, expressed his hostility towards Western values and stated that: "We as Muslims reject the idea of freedom of speech, and even of freedom."
Hizb ut-Tahrir was represented at six per cent of the events even thought the NUS has a policy not to give the organisation a platform.
The research also found eight events were moved off campuses following complaints while another ten were cancelled.
In other moves, 17 video or audio clips featuring the late terrorist Anwar al-Awlaki was shared online with students.
Rupert Sutton, Head Researcher at Student Rights said: "These statistics demonstrate that the presence of extremist preachers on campus is not a figment of people's imaginations, but a serious issue that universities cannot afford to be complacent about.
"The prevalence of material featuring terrorists such as Anwar al-Awlaki is deeply concerning, as is the relative ease with which Hizb ut-Tahrir-linked videos and literature can be shared amongst students.
"We hope that universities will use these figures as an opportunity to examine their policies and ensure that they are keeping their students safe from those who would spread intolerance and hatred on our campuses."
In 2011, Mrs May said universities were not taking the issue of radicalisation seriously enough and that it was too easy for Muslim extremists to form groups on campuses "without anyone knowing".
Last year a report by Student Rights and the Henry Jackson Society warned Islamic extremists were using social networking sites to radicalise students.
Videos of armed insurgents and hate-filled speeches from al Qaeda figures had been posted on websites linked to Islamic societies at several leading universities.
