  I would not go as far as an outright ban. It is a tricky issue, the tension between host and incoming culture.
  
  I think the British instinct is to be tolerant; that only becomes a problem in my view when tolerance is regarded as weakness by a small minority who seek to impose their own culture on the indigenous one.
  
  Of course any culture changes over time and to that extent we have benefited from cross-fertilisation from immigrant communities.
  
  Personally I think the impersonal forces of globalisation and Americanisation are a bigger threat to our native culture (whatever it is). The main aspect of immigration which really concerns me is simply that England is already the most densely populated country in Europe and hence immigration needs to be carefully controlled.
