If by diverse, you mean by immigration
US, 45.8 Million
Russia, 11 Million
Germany, 9.8 Million
Saudi Arabia, 9.1 Million
UAE, 7.8 Million
UK, 7.8 Million
France, 7.4 Million
Canada, 7.3 Million
That's the top 8 countries hosting immigrants from different racial background and religions |
I believe the first link counts many individual tribes that originate from the same country as a separate ethnicity, which should be understood when looking at the figures in the link. May be what you was alluding too anyway.
As for the immigration numbers above, they look a lot different when you compare those numbers to the square miles of each country and also the population of the indigenous population. As they say, likes, damn lies and statistics....its how you present the numbers.
As for Brexit, a vote was made and the results need to be honoured. How can any future vote be accepted by the population if we re-vote until we get the decision the most vocal want?
Of course the EU, Germany and other countries are trying their hardest to keep us in the EU, by saying nice things in newspapers of playing bully by politics. They want us in the EU as it benefits them. We paid way over and above in to the EU purse each year compared to most countries and they want our trade. They need us more than we need them which is why they are trying so hard to keep us.
After a no deal brexit we will sort out plenty of trade deals and other countries will see they can leave ok and this frightens the EU. They screwed themselves over giving ever increasing powers, dictating stuff they shouldn't have, throwing money all over the place funding fake projects which lead to so much money going in to the hands of the mafiaa and also white collar criminals and they thought they were unstoppable.
Being in a Europe wide Union is not so bad but not what the EU has become. Our leaving and success will be the first brick out of the wall and it will start crumbling. Of course they are going to try by hook or crook to get us to stay.
