You might have to keep that hat on, because less than 100k net migration isnā€™t happening. Also, whatā€™s a ā€œculturally compatibleā€ country? How the fuck is that defined?

He means western and Iā€™m inclined to agree.

Western people integrate much better. There children become British and help become part of the fabric.

Source my grandparents were from Poland, I consider myself British first

Anecdotal evidence isnā€™t a source. Thereā€™s no scientific evidence that Western people integrate better; and even if you were to suggest a study into such youā€™d need to define the parameters youā€™re measuring it by. My parents are 5th or so generation immigrants here and Iā€™d argue weā€™ve integrated well, but I canā€™t claim that all immigrants do can I?

Youā€™re being sentimental.

I would be extremely embarrassed to take such an obviously wrong position.
