The problem is that folks who may only watch the media get a distorted view of other countries.
the view among many in the US is that the UK is overrun by Muslims and a slave to the EU ignoring the fact that the UK has 5% Muslims (compared to 1% of the US) and that while there are problems, this isn’t the same as “overrun by Sharia”
My recent experiences in the UK were mixed
> In Brighton on a short visit - no skullcaps or burkhas seen
> in the countryside, Lake district a few years ago - again, no skullcaps/burkhas
> in London last October - quite a few, but the incident that struck me was - I was in a small store near Paddington station (run by indians) and some delivery guy came and asked for delivery. When he found out it was alcohol, he refused. looked very fair skinned Afghani. THAT struck me
So to me it looks like there are parts of London (and probably Birmingham) that are heavily Moslem, but no “sharia law no go zones”
Yes, but compared to the USA and even Canada, the Muslims in the UK are far more radicalized. And the media is in all out denial. They can’t even use the M word, using the nonsense description “Asian”. In some ways so typical British. Anyone “over there” is an “Asian” just like they referred to Italians as “Wily Oriental People”.
