Britain should be selective about admitting immigrants.
For example unrestricted entry of Muslims, will result not only in law and order problems but also Mulims will never assimilate into the local culture. On the other hand Hindus will go about their own business and also absorb local culture and language. The contribution if Hindus to British society and prosperity has been immense. By Hindus I mean all Indians except the Muslims

Yes as it happens to be true.

He might just have a point there...

He might indeed, but I suspect that he is biased, though I am aware that I'm making a generalisation there.

Why wouldn't he be able to? We need to be really worried when freedom of speech begins to be questioned

I am not saying that he is wrong. I am implicitly speculating that some people would get into trouble for saying some things regardless of whether they are factually true.

I believe that I myself am sailing close to the wind here.....

Well how about this for a trivial pursuit question:

Name one country with a significant Muslim minority (20% +) that does not have an internal terrorism issue.

There aren't many countries of any religion that have no internal terrorism issue.

You are allowed to be racist if you are not white.
