General Discussion

Yes, there are still racists out there in this country, millions of them.

But the anti-immigrant attitude I see from the people around me is more about opposition to other cultures.

They oppose immigrants because they do not want to mingle with other cultures. They especially don't want to hear other languages being spoken around them. They don't want to see people dressed differently than they consider normal.

If immigrants were English speaking christians with brown skin, they'd be welcomed by most (though not all) Pubs. Especially if they loved football and beer.
