A massively upvoted post here said why don’t people realise the rise of reform is down to immigration. Here is my response as someone who honestly couldn’t give a damn.

I’m English as they come and I am the sixth generation in London, the least ‘English’ part of England and don’t shoot me but I actually quite like immigrants tbh. I like the food variety it brings, I like the positive outlook many immigrants bring, many are more patriotic than the native born English frankly as they’ve seen what a ‘broken’ country actually looks like and appreciate this great nation for what it is.

My only gripe is house prices but frankly that is mostly down to low interest rates and cheap mortgages. Even if I blame demand that’s an issue resulting from other English people moving to London too.

Even if I didn’t like these people (they’re just like us surprise surprise) and the outlook that they bring. These people will become English in the fullness of time, isolationist immigrant groups don’t tend to last more than two generations.
Grooming gangs were mentioned as ever however let’s be honest how many ‘Ronnie Pickering’ types have you seen showing awful disrespect to women in the pub? Is this purley an Islamic phenomenon? No it’s not, maybe it is greater than average but I don’t think that mindset will be more prevlant than among your average Englishman once they’ve acclimatised to the UK, gone through our education system and distanced themselves from the backwards views on women of their south Asian forebears.

Now on numbers, obviously lower than current trends but between 1850-1950 about 15% of people would be counted as having recent immigrant origin. Find me one of those that isnt part of the ‘English’ now. Even those with more recent immigrant history many are English through and through. Half of David baddiels family are of a different faith and came after the war but he’s English as they come, I mean he wrote three lions ffs.

If we closed the borders tomorrow, no one in no one out in 50 odd years we would be back to 95% English, as very few via skin colour will be distinguishable from one another.

The English culture is strong and I’m not scared it’s going anywhere but up.

Hi I picked up this game to play with some pals but I’ve never really been much of a pc gamer and I’m quite slow physically. With the best will in the world I’ll never get above 60 actions per minute. What is the best play style to negate this disadvantage as much as possible, I play team games mainly.
