Either we value the migrants who have made this country richer, or we don't.

CARBONARI,

Thank you. I do know the title. I should read the book.

ALL,

In socio-biology, there are the terms "kin altruism" and "by-product mutualism". The former is very familial, and, clan and dialect group based, the latter means fusing to work cooperatively towards shared goals. It might be politically incorrect but not all societies mix well with other societies. It is not a case of one trying to avoid immigrants of a race or skin colour, rather kin altruism does not go well, in a pluralistic, mutualistic democracy. We are importing the very cultural traits that are divisive. Anglo/Celts might be willing to accept others, but to many societies (read immigrants)others are "outsiders", including the majority in their new country.

We want fusion not fragmentation. Read fusion to mean that the Anglo/Celts can change too.
