Nearly two-thirds of people believe there will be a 'clash of civilisations' between British Muslims and white Britons in the wake of the murder of a British soldier in Woolwich, a new poll shows.
The number of those who believe such a clash is inevitable has increased by 9% from last year.
There has also been a small increase in the proportion of people who believe British Muslims pose a serious threat to democracy, up to 34% on Thursday and Friday from 30% in November 2012, according to the YouGov survey of 1,839 adults.

However the YouGov poll provides evidence that Britain does remain a tolerant country and that the far-right support remains at the margins of society. Nearly two-thirds (63%) believe the vast majority of Muslims are good British citizens, up by 1% from last November.
There has also been an increase from 24% to 33% in the proportion who believe Muslims are compatible with the 'British way of life'. Around two-thirds (65%) said on the whole most people tend to get along well with each other.
One in five respondents said they felt positively about demonstrations being held against last week's terror attacks, and half felt negatively.
However, two-thirds said they felt negatively about such protests led by the BNP or English Defence League (EDL). Asked if they would join the EDL, 84% said they would never do so, although there has been a 9% increase in the proportion of respondents who had heard of the far-right organisation.
“Fears”? or hopes?
and there needs to be...
The Brits are doomed if there isn’t.
Get rid of them.
All of them.
In case you haven’t noticed, there already is a clash.
That’s why those guys killed the soldier.
Its called rcognizing gthe inevitable.
Unless, of course, the men want to grow beards, the women want to wear burkhas, corporal punishments of the most hideous sort are allowed, we give up dogs, dancing, music, alcohol, and just about everything else except putting our butts up five times a day facing away from Mecca.
Response: As a reat historian said circa 1888: "Tolerance, the inability to say Yes or No. The inability to take a stand." I would add that in addition "Tolerance" is used as a cover for cowardice.
Is the BNP really a racist organization, or are they getting the Tea Party treatment?
“There has also been a small increase in the proportion of people who believe British Muslims pose a serious threat to democracy?”...apparently, stabbing a serviceman to death in the street and then standing around talking about it just isn’t quit enough...WAKE UP YOU DAMN IDIOTS!!!!
On that note, in your everyday life do you “tolerate” things that you really like and that are good for you? No, you actively pursuit those things because they make your life happier and better.
We “tolerate” annoyances and discomforts like dealing wit excessive noise during construction. The thing is that construction generally improves Britain whereas Muslims have the exact opposite effect.
Brits can’t carry guns to protect themselves, but can they carry swords?
the frog and boiling water....
The BNP are nationalists. They may draw some racists, but racists don’t comprise or define the entire BNP. In essence, the BNP is getting the Tea Party treatment.
On this topic, I love how the Left can not only have the support of the Black Panthers and Jeremiah Wrights of the world, but also actively have members like a Sharpton yet the media never labels the Left racist. Today’s Left has an increasing number of anti-white racists.
“Toleration” implies the person, place or thing “Tolerated” is unpleasant. The Western man is failing to distinguish between the merely “unpleasant”, a bad smell, and the downright deadly the jihadist.
!
Okay thanks. I agree with your comments too.
The double standard that always strikes me, is the appreciation of groups like the NAACP and La Raza, while labeling any such group for Whites akin to something like the KKK.
Native Brits need to carry the “cow-bolt devise” from “No Country for Old Men”
Indeed.....yet amazing people continue to speak as if the obvious can be somehow explained away, when the obvious is so simple to see and understand.
They come here as well...to multiply and destroy...the agenda has never changed nor the behavior...nor will it.
Their culture will never assimilate in ANY country...and has no desire to do so...they masquerade and lie to continue with their agenda...the Islamification of every country they populate.
There are grounds historically to term the KKK worse.
That doesn’t mean that any White organization would be wrong, and it makes me angry when the press and politicians try to imply any White advocacy would have to be racist.
