  1. Similar thing happening in France, this is why I don’t understand our immigrations policies. Who do they benefit? What is the point for anyone to bring immigrants over, naturalise them, and let them be poor and alienated in their own ghettos? It doesn’t make any sense to me.

  2. One person moves in, and so does their family, and their extended family, but all into one or two houses. Multiply this 10000x, and then we have massive overpopulation in small areas not designed or built to house so many people, those areas then *become* deprived, because the resources that they had before don’t stretch near far enough to cover the massive overpopulation.

  3. We imported shitloads of Pakistanis to work in the factories of the north of England and then shut the factories. Most of east Lancashire and west Yorkshire is majority Muslim and there’s no job prospects for anyone there.

  4. I’m from Yorkshire and there are areas that are majority muslim, people that came to work in the old mill towns that the industry then left. There are deprived post-industrial areas all around like this, dead towns without much going on, and not just populated with Muslims but with all people.

  5. Well with brexit coming you will see fewer European immigrants and instead see more Asian and African immigrants, many will be Muslim and this is hardly a huge surprise. I just hope it will be highly skilled individuals who aren’t lumped into deprived areas and placed in a spiral of generational poverty and poor education.

  6. As a native I do think it’s a touch biased to suggest we live in the most deprived areas. If you actually go to these “deprived” areas, yes you’ll see 7 people from 3 generations living in a 3 bed house but that then allows the younger ones to work, save and actually buy their own place in their early 20’s and not have to scrounge about for 15 years trying to save a deposit.
    And just because this article suggests we live in the most deprived areas it does not mean we’re living in poverty eating cereal for fucking dinner. We eat proper meals everyday as a family regardless. Plus we as a minority give billions in charity each year to help those less fortunate. So fuck these articles suggesting that we’re some bottom feeding deprived scumbags from the third world.
    Rant over!

  7. Before they arrived, non Muslims were living in them. What’s your point? Someone’s going to live there. Before then the census would say 100% of deprived areas are full of white people.

  8. In all of this i dont care about race, religion, sexual orientation etc. What I care about are the values and norms that people subscribe to.

  9. That’s because the deprived areas of England and Wales are increasing. This is by design. The Tory government wants it this way. They got what they wanted (Brexit) by lying about the benefits it would bring. The less than average intelligent believed the “it’s too good to be true” hype and they along with the schemers snuck past the halfway line at the referendum and voila! The Tories had a mandate to destroy the fabric of society and plunder the lot. Elections Have Consequences

  10. Okay. And?

    61% don’t.

    Not sure what narrative they’re trying to spin here. No one wants to live in a shit hole and no one puts you there.

    I mean there’s more than Muslims in those areas but they aren’t mentioned. If and before those Muslims had moved into those locations one would assume the census showed they were mostly white.

    It’s tiring how many narrative get spun these days.

  11. Not really surprising. They’re from poor countries, you don’t magically become rich as soon as you step off a plane

  12. F*cking useless government, I went uni in Bradford and I’m telling you they don’t give two fu KS about the UK. Peace goodnight. Real Info

  13. That’s the issue when gov policy was to bring them in for industrial jobs that no longer exist and plonk them all in one neighbourhood

    Silly silly policy that was
