Yesterday was the hottest day of the year so far and indeed we may even have peaked. It's high summer and the beaches are full.
But there was an interesting scene yesterday beachwise here in Dover. Down at the furthest end of the beach, furthest away from everyone else, closest to the eastern docks while yet still clinging on to a bit of beach, was a large group of 70 or 80 Iraqis/Iranians. Now this was a very large group so their presence was immediataly obvious. All well and good.
They are of course different from everyone else and we/they know it , we can see it in the way they dress and so on. But here is the odd and perhaps unfortunate bit, all day long they kept totally away from everyone else. It was almost a foreign enclave that is not forever England. Now that may be fine in itself I guess, but here is the worrying bit...there is no integration, no intention of integration, no desire for it.
That might be okay during beachlife but doesnt that also reflect the way we are as a society..fragmented completely and utterly. A whole series of different nations within a nation with nothing joining us up. No connection, no desire for connection.
When politicians tell us on TV that its great to see modern Britain with all peoples all races all contributing splendidly to the mix, isnt that pie in the sky because there is no mix, just isolated groups longing for their homeland.
