So what? As long as they're not harming anyone then good luck to them. Again people being different is far more interesting than people being the same.

Yes, we have different foods, arts, music from all over. But British people do not know our own food, arts, music etc now.
Outside influences are fine, enrichment is fine as long as it does not become a flood which it has. That is what destructive to our culture and why it is dying a slow death. So much so, that most people don't even realise it.

Our culture is not weak enough to get overridden so easily. Harry Potter is one of the most successful books and film franchises in the world, from a British writer, continuing a British trend of excellent children's writing. We still produce many of the world's biggest pop and rock acts. We have many excellent actors and actresses working on international franchises. The newest Star Wars has two British actors in the lead roles (one of whom is the British born son of Nigerian immigrants)! and it's filmed here! with a largely British production staff!
We continue to have a massively successful film, music and literature industry which is only made more impressive by our relatively small size.
I do not want to live in a Britain where I have to travel more than 5 miles to find a chicken madras.
