and if people think I'm talking crap, just look around your local area and see the separate 'communities' that have sprung up, each with a wary and suspicious eye on each other.
No I'm not racist, I'm realist

The multicultural idea only works where there is a low number of people in those other cultures. The low numbers force them to mingle a lot more. It's when the numbers increase it becomes viable to separate and close off and have their own community centres etc. The "community" becomes one defined by race/religion, rather than simply people living in a particular area. Just look at the number of race/religion specific "communty" centres that are around you. It's gone from having centres for people living in area X, to ones of people of race/religion Y. How is not racist by having those race/religion specific centres?
