UK Becoming More Ethnically Segregated, Warns MP

Former Labour shadow minister Chuka Umunna stated that  Britain is becoming more ethnically segregated and people may seek "Donald Trump style" solutions if politicians do not act.

He said: "Fifteen years after the Cantle Report, lessons have still to be learnt and cracks in our communities have continued to grow.

"In fact, Britain has become a more ethnically segregated as a nation as immigration has risen over the last decades. This illustrates the problem with a national debate on immigration that focuses almost exclusively on numbers, with too little attention paid to how we integrate people once they settle here.

"We're now at a crossroads. If we don't take action to bridge the divides in our communities, they will grow into gulfs and there is a real risk the British people could respond, not by seeking to solve our problems together, but by seeking to blame one another and look to 'Donald Trump style' solutions."


What are your thoughts?

  1. Donald Trump kind of solution may not be attainable in UK. I advice that UK should find their own method of tackling this matter.
