I will not do a 'Gusset' by trawling the Internet for sites but can inform you that Labour, now engaged in a virulent class war is totally and utterly wrong when it claims the gap between rich and poor has widened.

According to the independent 'Institute for Fiscal Studies' the gap has narrowed over the past decade, particularly in London this is because the Conservatives have given tax cuts to the poorly paid so that many, many don't pay Income Tax at all.

Got to go out now with my wife prior to attending the CPF.

It appears to be the packaging from the media and voices that you have disdain for which is fair enough. But my original points stand.

We are a hotch-potch of all sorts on this island today. Very few youngsters now would have all 8 great-grandparents all born in, and with ancestors from, England or even all 4 grandparents. And we have very little trouble here relatively speaking in regard to that mix.

That is multi-culture, multi-religion, multi-race, multi-nationality pretty much working, or should I say not failing, for the vast majority. They are the people who just go about their day not really bothering anyone and they from all manner of backgrounds.

You were attributing her misinformed view on the make-up of benefit claimants on multiculturalism (i.e. non Brits moving to Britain). Given her view was the opposite of reality there is little to be said other than she's a bigot and a fool. To blame multiculturalism ignores the fact she was totally mistaken about the truth and suggest that you are as well.

Dear me, you should try to comprehend the written word before you comment on it. Of course she is a bigot, whatever the true figures are for benefit claimants. My point is that this sort of mud-slinging between 'communities' is because these 'communities' are at odds, they are distrustful and wary of each other, this is the actuality of multi-culturalism.

The majority of people in England will have four English born grandparents and eight English born great-grandparents - I do and so does my wife.

If anyone looks down on others because of the colour of their skin, or their nationality or those who have moderate and benign belief systems then it is the former and not the the latter who has problems with some serious character flaws and personal issues thrown in.
