On top of the lack of the community 'spirit', there is clear ethnic segregation.

I've heard tons and tons of Dutch Somalis say this.. The way they described and talked about the old country *the Netherlands* made it sound like a out of this world paradise, but when I finally saw it first hand, walahi I was beyond shocked, it was laughable.. I blame them for getting my hopes up ruunti. The only thing praiseworthy was the transport system, even though their trams are wack..anonymousfaarax wrote:

Lack of snow in the winter. Too many ethnics and ethnicities, lack of integration, I didnt know whether I had arrived in India or Africa - this was also one of the things I liked about it. The white trash and millions of asians. ethnic ghettos. Lack of community spirit. London. General widespread poverty. pervasive dependency/benefits culture. depressed/disabled/fat/ugly/white trash/ chavs/ goths/ junkies/ alkies are all disproportionately high. + much more.
You should spend a year in NL. you'll see our seasons are much more distinct. Your summer is like a warm autumn and your winter is a cold autumnaccident wrote:We do too.anonymousfaarax wrote:We actually have four distinct seasonsaccident wrote:NL weather can't be that different UK.![]()
Don't shoot down London just because you holidayed in Brick Lane sxb.

Even Amsterdam was a let down, I honestly believe its the most overratted place on this earth.
The ethnic segregation is not as bad as USA, that being said, I rather it be this way. Assimilating means, losing your dhaqan. Since most Somalis are not middle class, if we integrated we would end up like Jamaicans and Chavs. That is counter-productive sxb.anonymousfaarax wrote:You having grown up in the U.K explains why you don't know what I meanaccident wrote: What do you mean by "lack of community spirit"?![]()

The multi-culturalism of the U<K is one of the things that intrigue me about the place. Its probly the safest place for ethnics in future years to come no doubt.accident wrote: With all it's greatness and integration of NL Somalis, your government is more racist and right-wing than ours. The force you to become Mr Johnson so that they can give you a Ducth nationality. VVD aren't even that bad, watch worse people take office in the near future.![]()
When you say community spirit, what do you mean? Knocking my neighbor's door and offering them cookies?
NL can never measure up to London sxb.
Cheap version of U.KWestLdnShawty wrote:Walahi I'm being serious..
I found everything laughable.. Like I said its mainly because the Dutch folks in the UK overhyped the place.. It looked like a cheap version of the UK to be honest..![]()
Rotterdam was aiight though, weird, but better than the capital, even though the retail centre/sector was![]()
What cracked me up was.. there was a store in Rotterdam called 'British style', something along them lines and all I saw was a bunch of cadaan/madow youths in it dressed like typical chavs..Comeon now..

Je bent niet de enigste, ik was naar engeland verhuid toen ik 13 was. Ik ben nu 25, ik ben de regels voor de 't' 'dt' 'd' vergeeten. For example, is het 'verhuid', 'verhuist' enzofoort.
