  Consequences......we need to see them more often. Without wanting to seek to cause offence, surely the minoroty have to respect the majority culture? And in return have their own culture respected? I always remember the Irish situation at the beginning to middle of the 20th Century - when Catholics came over to the UK we wouldn't have dreamt of demanding Catholics take precedence. As republican Catholics - and not the violent sort who grabbed the news! - there were aspects of English culture that sat at odds with some of our beliefs and thoughts, but that didn't give us the right to demand changes, or tell Brits not to pursue their own culture in their own land - it's an outrageous thought!!! And at that time (clearly I was only a tiny child!) many cultures lived side by side without too much conflict - especially insome of the areas in London where I lived - and it really just boiled down to gratitude to a host nation, rspect for each others culture, and an awareness that it wasn't the place of the host to adapt or change, it was up to the visitirs/immigrants/newbies to adapt.
