Actlly from a scientific point of view race isnt a real thing. It does exist psychology in peoples minds but in truth there is no biological basis of race. Sociologically we have ethnicity and culture natures but these are learned behaviours.

Really?

Wow!

I never knew that.

Why shouldn't you - people change and adapt to social change and influences on a continual basis. But that's besides the point

The problem isn't per se the migration, its the temporary nature of that migration. For a vast number of people coming here, there is no incentive to form long term ties to society, because around half the 500,000 figure arriving each year is coupled with o around 250,000 returning.

Traditionally migration into the UK has been permanent, with individuals having to construct new lives in a new country, which has generally meant a need to adapt into the communities around them, and that in general those communities have adapted to them.

If you're going to be in a country for maybe two years, the incentive is more akin to maybe being a student in a city or someone travelling, rather than someone who is going to live there. All ties are temporary and tend to be geared towards a recreational engagement.

Also of course politicians couldn't get away without dealing with impact on services, such as the NHS etc because they needed the votes of the new citizens, as well as the existing ones. Now its less necessary - Because you don't have an influx of new voters, and the existing population will likely have fixed political views that prevent them switching votes.

Adaptation has to work both ways, and it requires social incentive. The less someone needs to adapt the more 'like a tourist' they're likely to become.

I don't think crime is a major issue either, its an issue, but we have the capacity to deal with that.

Because people think its a real thing, largely because they've not paid attention to biology in the last 40 years or so.

Racial theory and theories of race are based on biological differences between races. These are completely unfounded, as genetic similarities across racial groups, are much much larger than similarities - In fact there is only one race, the Human Race.

Sociological and psychologically, people still believe in the idea of a race, when what they really mean are concepts like ethnic groups and cultural beliefs - Which are not defined in relation to biology.

Its important to remember that the idea of race is as a scientific, biological term that identifies sub-groups of homo sapian as distinct (typically to identify superior and inferior sub-species).

Of course people still discriminate on the basis of race, but that's because they're remarkably ignorant and stupid, believing in a disproven scientific concept.

All politicians are liars. They have to be.

The bottom line is that Trump won because a large part of White America saw him as a better bet to represent their interests than Clinton. More so than Europe, the States has experiences vast numbers of migrants crossing the border. It's not what most of the the existing population want.

Lots of people have had to adapt to disadvantages due to austerity.

How does immigration disadvantage you?
