Multiculturalism Has Failed!

If you invited 20 people to your home, would you be expected to change what you do and your customs to theirs?  I hardly think so!  

Back in 2010, German Chancellor, Angela Merkel observed that the dream of multicultural harmony, according to which people of radically different backgrounds and aspirations would LIVE SIDE BY SIDE,  had "failed, utterly failed." She said Immigrants were welcome, but, they needed to work harder to integrate into German Society, not the least which would be to learn how to speak and understand German.

Now, the Brits are awakening to this home truth as well.  Late last month, The Daily Telegraph reported, a coalition of MPs announced a plan whereby children would be taught a "common culture" and Immigrants would be expected to assimilate to British Society.  "We believe in certain values and will actively promote them: Freedom of Speech; Freedom of Worship; Democracy and Rule of Law."

In summation, I would simply say: Whether you visit another's home or you come into another country, YOU should expect no less than to conform to the rules or laws of that home or that country.
