Very little of what I posted came from the papers. Most of it comes from personal friendships and the family extension into the Moslem community and the Jewish community.

Discrimination is discrimination no matter who does it. If it is 2% of the population or 70% of the population. That is never acknowledged by the "Multiculturalists".

Yes vic I've seen it, and I know the place has its problems, but it is far from a no go area. My sister doesn't have to wear a burkha to walk to work!

The Mail, I refer to as the Wail may be a paper for those with little brain power or so we are given to believe. However in my opinion "it is the paper, and the only one that exposes injustices, fights for the rights of our troops! the aged and as I have stated injustices that would be ignored were it not for their exposure.i am not imagining the hatred for those jihadists in Luton, I am sure a contributor On VV can direct you to the posts or you can see them on my Facebook. My Muslim friends I care deeply about, however the likes of the Hate Preachers, terrorists, those who threaten the very country that has given them and their forefathers sanctuary should be behind bars or deported. This morning we see a fellow on breakfast seeking sanctuary from a country that as far as I know is peaceful..'Cameroons" People from contributors are not haters, more appropriate one can describe them as protectors with their hands ties behind their backs

My perception of The Mail is that it is is a racist piece of propaganda. If it isn't trying to convince its readers that all terrorists are Muslims and all Muslims are terrorists it is getting its anti gay soapbox out. And it seems able to convince many of its readers to think along the same lines.

I am sure you are not imaging the hatred for Jihadists in Luton Kate but as Kaz has just pointed out from first hand experience it is no where near as bad as the papers (and Stacey Dooley) make out. Tell people something often enough, in a legitimate way, and they will eventually start to believe it.

I do not know how the Moslem or DM things got into this when the OP was about the make-up of England.

At the 2011 Census the figure from the Rest of the World was just short of five million and 9.36% of us. Estimates for 2015 put the figure at around 7 million and 12% of the population.

Now it strikes me that one does not need to have a bee in one's bonnet to realise that the figures are not good for social cohesion, even if all migrants were spread equally throughout the land. The fact is they are not.

There are hot-spots in some towns and cities where ghettoes have formed and, as we have seen from many media outlets and the work of the police and social services, these are where problems arise.

The total influx also impacts on the country's infrastructure of roads, schools, housing, NHS etc.. It does no matter one jot whether the incomers are Moslems or Christian, from the ME, N. Africa or Eastern Europe. The simple truth is that the country is being weighed down by too many people.

The Daily Mail came into it when Kate referred to their Saturday headline WM.

The Muslims came into it as they have supposedly made Luton a no go area.

After you questioned as to why "I Asked the Question Debih" following your immediate response to my post, the result of which other have rendered their views.. We only have look at terrible attack in Paris and other areas, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere, this is no time for complacency this is not the first time a sector of Muslims have made clear their intentions ." I have close Muslim friends, again I repeat "I am not a racist,but I am a realist."

It just frustrates me that it always seems to end up with the Muslims being blamed for everything. The extremists action have nothing whatsoever to do with religion they just use it as an excuse.

The word is extremist. Not Muslim.
