Good riddance

Maybe you have no culture - others of us do! The usual if you don't value something it doesn't exist nonsense. Speak for yourself - not the rest of us!

What is British culture that’s being threatened then?

If you don't FEEL it you don't have it. It shouldn't need pointing out unless of course people just take everything our culture offers for granted because they know nothing different.

It's much more than that as anyone who actually understands would know. But as I say culture is something you feel - something that has shaped your life and understanding, that gives you rights and freedoms, that makes you feel comfortable with a sense of belonging and pride and a lot more...

Culture isn't static, it's a dynamic constantly evolving thing. Curry and Kebabs are part of English culture, and yet only around 50-60 years ago, how many English people had ever tried them?

Public executions, child labour, and poor houses were part of our culture at one time, too.

History and traditions are ever growing. It isn't overwritten, it just grows to encompass more and more aspects of living in Britain.

The whole idea that we are 'losing our culture' is as ignorant as when people are saying 'muslims are taking over'. It's just ignorant hysteria.

“It’s a feeling”

What a load of bollocks, just an excuse to spout racist tosh

Gay culture is a real thing though. It isn't a feeling, it's a history.

The battles for equal rights, the arts, history, speech and traditions. It's tangible and real.

You clearly lack understanding if you don't get what I mean by 'feel'. Your problem not mine.

What does that have to do with anything? The discussion is the supposed harm migrants/refugees/asylum seekers are doing to english/british culture.
