point taken, but it still gets my goat (did you guess already?) but I did say:

they might deress it up as 'economics' influencing these decisions but that's BS - at least for leicester city council who waste millions on end of year budget spending to ensure they don't get next years budget allowance cut by the amount they didn't get round to spending this year...

coupled with the fach that LCC have closed and removed all funding from many community and support centres right accross the city- the function of which went a long way to providing a means of intergrating different cultural groups into the larger community here.
There is a great deal to be said about local councils and most of it is not good, with rules being tailored to the most vocal protest etc.
My thoughts of immigration stand- either tow the line of get out- it's how I had to behave in foreign climes... abide by local laws and don't make a fuss; something you see less and less with imigration these days.
That's one problem in itself, but it's compounded by weak local government which bends in whatever direction the strongest wind happens to blow and hides it's incompetence under the guise of economic management paugh!
Besides, I'm not against imigration, just the lack of
intergration and acceptance when they get here. This is a twofold issue with (EDIT: in some cases) the immigrants themselves being unwiling to adopt the customs etc of their new more supportive tollerant home, and the institutions of this country trying to accomodate everyone by making the rest of us 'natruals' (can't think of a better word?) change for the sole benefit of the newcommers- this should be the other way round, they should change (and be encouraged to change, or at the very least adopt temporarily) to suit our ways and customs.
