My views on this.....

Anyone who come to seek asylum in the UK has come here because they are being percicuted in their own country. I have no problem with us helping these people, what i have a problem with is their attitude when they get here. If you chose to seek asylum in the UK then you also chose to live by our laws, just because something was acceptable in their country it doesn't mean it is acceptable here. Lets put it this way, if we were to go to their country would we be allowed to demand Goverment Money for segregated schools & to build our own churches?

Also i believe that a lot of racial tension is created by the Laws of this country because people are scared of the "He is being Racist" claim.

(Not sure of the exact terms, but heres an example)

If i was to walk down the street & be attacked by 5 Black people it would be treated as an Assault case by the courts & the maximum term is 5 years. Now if i was black & was attacked by 5 white people then it would be treated as a Racial Case & the Maximum term is 12 years.

We are being made to feel like second class citizens because of the fear of this "Racist" word. The biggest problem is that people no this, & they use it as an easy get out.
