David Cameron; Multiculturalism has failed in UK

So UK is going to be like the US now eh? A melting pot instead of multiculturalism. I guess this is why Somali Americans seem more pro-US than the British Somalis here. How can a state have a policy which leads to ethnic segregation instead of creating a national identity? It might seem bad to British Somalis, but I think it is for the best.

Next I say end the state welfare system.

Following the lead of the German Chancellor, eh. :up:

The UK "multiculturalism" has produced a burgeoning welfare state with radical elements thriving throughout. About damn time the UK government takes proactive steps in ending this catastrophic failure.

Major difference. US is an immigrant nation and has been dealing with immigration since its beginning. The US has seen every mistake and success of immigration until we came the modern system called the "melting pot". You can be Muslim, Christian, etc but you are also American. In the UK, multiculturalism has lead to you can be Muslim, Christian, etc and just live in the UK. Major difference. The English don't view non-English as British and the non-English feel alienated from becoming British. In the US, no one has a monopoly on national identity. Everybody contributes to Americaness while being distinct, instead of the British system which means you are British by conforming or living your separate lives.

Major difference between the melting pot and the salad bowl.

Europe is different because really the whites are the original inhabitants of the land... so becoming British or whatever is difficult

America...you know, everyone came here so no one group has the monopoly of being an American exclusively... not the whites, the blacks, the latinos

just the native americans really

When Americans talk about Britain or Europe in general, its like you are describing another continent and not the countries that we live in.

His talk had really nothing to do with being British, It was about muslim extremism, radicalization and terrorism.

America is a multicultural society though,and has been since the civil rights movement won their course
So Cameron is actualy saying we should emulate France rather than "the Great Satan"

Melting pot is just euphanism for multiculturism

The question is ... what does he class as 'extremism'?

And ending the state welfare system is stupid ... What about Incapacity Benefit for ppl who are ill and can't work?

I swear he said he was gonna offer immigrants money to return to the homelands ...muppet!

Personally, I see the UK as multicultural...did you know over 300 languages are spoken in London? :shock:

I dont care if Cameron doesn't like us... This is my country too !
