it get any worse ? ? Are we going to get more racial tension
It's the immigrant minority that get the blame for overcrowding. That creates tension, whatever YOU say
I play golf every week with 2 of my friends who are Indian and they not only see it, but feel it too !!

Everything else seems to be getting worse so i'll go for yes. It's not like the government can really do anything about even if they wanted to really. there's so much tension with the current situation as it is and people simply wouldn't accept any drastic measures such as sending masses of immigrants back to their own countries and restricting the amount of children a family can have. i think there is a bigger plan anyway, times are about to change big time i believe. have you seen the predictions for the years 2009 - 2012?

I do see racial tension sadly. there are muslim familes who are very british and we can get along fine, but then there are those who don't want to accept the way of the Western world and whites who make racial slurs about other nationalites only make things worse by spreading negative feeling. I come across this kind of thing most days where i live. It's just one piece of the puzzle that is goiing to lead us into WW3 and i honestly believe that is coming soon.

It was the Labour party that started this problem just after WW2 when there was a shortage of tube and bus drivers. They invited people from Jamaica and Pakistan to come and live in Britain. They came by the boat load together with all their family and relatives. Since then the flood gates have never been closed.

What racial tension? The only racial tension I ever hear about is on here and it's always being peddled by some terrified Daily Mail reader.

well i can safely say that the statement is true. London now is so overcrowded that its safe to say that anymore we shall all implode.
as to the person who said what racial tension is living in fantasy land, and blames it on the newspapers, also doesn't live in areas of high immigration. We do and the people do not mix very freely, most of the Asians and they are no longer the minority, have their own lives, schools, faiths, and have no intention of becoming part and parcel of British culture. The same can be said of many recent arrivals. Family live in an area where there have been huge influx of Polish people and the problems this has caused have been numerous. Not least because there infrastructure is not able to cope with the people who need schools, hospitals, and social services, all of which are under pressure because lack of funds. This country of ours should be closed to all immigrants from EU and outside. The government is to blame for this situation, open door policy does not work.

Stop asking that - everytime you say it can't get worse ... it does

[pin ball]

its bad and it will get much worse. after getting pushed , shoved and glared at in my fairly peaceful town centre today ive decided to shop before 9 am from now on when its quieter. also when its raining . otherwise im not going to the town that ive lived in peacefully all my life. as soon as i can im selling up and moving to greece. population 11 million . thats a bit better than the population that we have here now. i cant wait to leave and i used to really love where i live.

Your premise that the crowding is due to immigration is a display of ignorance that is as alarming as the question.
To suggest that it is the fault of only two people only is even more ridiculous than that!

It may have helped if you had outlined any cases of racial tension in the last 200 years in the UK that was not the fictional scaremongering creation of some Wapping tabloid reporter or that involved more than 5 people.

Also your genius did not extend to suggesting a masterplan like ridding this country of all the layabout scrounging slobs, thugs, murderers, racists, rapists and child sex abusers and pervert tories who don't have any answers
