I am not going to fool myself like some do and deny that there is no problem.
When most of Accringtons post office queues are largely made up of muslim women who wont or cant be bothered to speek English receiving large amounts of tax payers money and pensioners are picking up a pitance after paying there tax and insurance all there life.
I say enough is enough why should the ordinary people pay for mistakes
of bad immigration polices and let there town slowly resemble a place in Pakistan.

So you thought if you can't beat them join them, and emigrated so you could become an immigrant yourself?
Cool.

Re: Third Mosque for Accrington
There is something ironic when people complain that others can't 'speek' English

Tut tut, there is a difference between "speaking" and "spelling", the point made is correct.

I don't agree in total with our immigration policies but the example used was far from being correct in my experience.
I would suggest the point about the post office queue is nowhere near correct. Everytime I go to the main post office the main language I hear is English, at least a version of it where every word begins with F. The same people have never seen a bar of soap and tend to bathe in lager, wine or cider. They are not the same nationality Gordie described.

In a recent survey 1000 asylum seekers were asked if they thought that Britain should retain its present currency, 99% said that the Giro was just fine with them

Exactly I am a immigrant. One who pays taxes and contributes as well as
benefiting from this country.If myself and my family did not want to mix and except Irish customs traditions and there culture we would not be excepted here.Immigrants from none EU countrys entering Ireland can not receive benefits for over a year until they have payed sufficient tax and then its limited.There is no free health service here or special treatment for any person who has not sufficiently contributed to the state. Consequently the vast majority of immigrants are poles who are genuinely
looking for work not a free ride.
I have said before immigrants are treated with tolerance and are expected
to except Irish traditions and culture and not try and change it

Big deal I spelt two words wrong.We can all sit down typing with a spell
checker and pulling others for grammar and spelling.
What a plonker.
