That's why your government are prepared to turn a blind eye to their presence in your country. Perhaps they were pushing it a bit by going on a march but, in the main, they seem to just get on with things, without complaining too much. But, of course, as they're not "born and bred" there, they don't really have a right to complain about anything, do they?

Just because we know LYY to be a white American of British stock, it's a bit rude to portray him as some WASP Patrick Bateman from American Psycho, sending the poor illegal immigrants out pickin' the God damn cotton in the fields.
No wonder people are so quick to stereotype nationalities, and that most people in the world think us Brits ride carriages through swirling fog, whilst wearing Deer Stalker hats or bustles, preferably not at the same time.
