Cameron: State multiculturalism has failed

I suppose he's got a point. This pipedream of all cultures mingling in harmony has often turned out to be the opposite.
But I'm surprised he's come out with it and upset the muslim council. -

Very very unfair comments.
As a contractor/permie I have met many muslims and they are more wider ranging in beliefs and culture than christians. This is going to make them feel more isolated and achieve the opposite of what he is claiming he is trying to do. Like it or not Cameron we live in a multicultural world due to globalisation (not just the UK). There are expats in Muslim countries and Muslims in UK etc.
Take a look at Egypt and Tunisia. Religion is just a name tag, unless you actually meet the people on the ground you won't know what they like and even if they are bad you can't blame the religion especially when there are 100 different interpretations and belief systems.
What Cameron has said is going to cause a lot more trouble than good and I know Cameron is not an idiot so he knows what he is doing...Comment

Here is the full text which appears to be accurately reported in the press. Maybe some would like to tell us exactly which sentences they disagree with.
New Statesman - Full text: David Cameron's Munich speech on segregation, radicalisation and Islamic extremism
He goes out of his way to state he is referrring to extremists, either terrorists or those who reject our society's secular and liberal values and not to moderate Muslims. So, once again, the objectors appear to be against the idea of ever addressing the problems at all, of letting the radical groups act as they wish, of tarring any reference to objectionable viewpoints on women, non muslims or imposition of Shariah law as some baseless phobia.
It is precisely this nonsense, the fear that nothing will be done to address the real concerns of those who have every right to a nation and culture of their own, like anyone else in the world, that fuels predudice against the moderate and decent Muslims.Last edited by xoggoth; 5 February 2011, 15:17.bloggoth

Take a look at Egypt
Poll shows Egyptians favour democracy and stoning for adultery - The Globe and Mail
95%: Say it’s good that Islam plays a large role in politics
54%: Believe men and women should be segregated in the workplace
82%: Believe adulterers should be stoned
84%: Believe apostates from Islam should face the death penalty
77%: Believe thieves should be flogged or have their hands cut off
Is that seriously the sort of society we want here?Last edited by xoggoth; 5 February 2011, 15:23.bloggoth
