Free for who? Free for the blacks/Muslims who have to work 12 hours a day cleaning the streets to just scrape by and who will suffer repeated racial discrimination and <i>never</i> get access to even the bottom rungs of the political ladder?
Out of the 650 Members of Parliament in the country, there are at least 30 Jews (for 300,000 Jews in the country), while, until five years ago, there had never been a SINGLE Muslim in Parliament even though there are estimated to be 2 million Muslims in the country. This is not some racist remark - it is a FACT, which even the Jewish Board of Deputies will verify.
Britain may seem \"free\" on a superficial, but there is a huge amount of racism. See:

\"The documentary showed recruits at a police training centre in the North West using the terms \"nigger\" and particularly \"Paki\" with regularity.
Undercover reporter Mark Daly recorded one officer, Pc Rob Pulling of North Wales police, apparently <b>saying he would kill an Asian person \"if I could get away with it\" and a string of other racist comments. </b>\"
I have suffered three racist remarks in the last three weeks. My local mosque has to lock the door while we can say our prayers, because there is a danger of some Muslim-hater firebombing the place. I no longer wear my Muslim hat and have been forced to take off the Islamic sticker from my front door because of the amount of Islamophobia. I don't call that freedom.
Release a little of that hate, and it may be easier to see things. I know I can't change your mind, you believe strongly in your ways, but you chastise those taking a stand against discriminating a people for where they are born.
