It is Official - Multiculturalism is Depressing
 
Official research commissioned by the Home Office suggests that the more ethnically diverse an area is, the less people are likely to trust each other.  The Commission for Racial Equality has also carried out work looking at the effects of diversity on individual wellbeing, which backs up the Home Office claims.
Interviewed on the BBC programme “The Happiness Formula” earlier this week, the chairman of the Commission for Racial Equality, Trevor Phillips, accepts that people are happier if they are with people like themselves.

He says, "We've done work here which shows that people, frankly, when there aren't other pressures, like to live within a comfort zone which is defined by racial sameness".

He also says, "People feel happier if they're with people who are like themselves.  But the question is: what does 'like themselves' mean?"

Trevor Phillips, who earns a staggering six figure salary funded by hard working British taxpayers, states the obvious.
A visit to a Caribbean community club in Bristol, Manchester or Brixton will reveal an unsurprising singularity of composition as would a similar visit to an Indian workers club in Leicester or Wolverhampton, a Polish veteran’s club in Dundee or Ipswich, and a Chinese Welfare Association in Glasgow or Brent.

Of course, humans do not just prefer their own kind, based on factors such as race, culture, language, shared common interest and age, but consciously seek out and join together in mutual enterprise and association with those who think, act and look like one another.

Such common sense findings might appear extraordinary to the 'professional' multiculturalists, but provides further evidence to the rest of us that these would-be social pioneers are, in fact, dangerous mischief-makers whose flawed experiment lies in tatters around them. 

It is time to sweep the decks clear of the entire race relations industry which takes millions from the public purse.  And for what?
