I have never stated that specific groups are lining their pockets. In fact I dont recall mentioning any specific groups. I merely asked the question as to what is aggressively inspiring many people to set up community group and centres that appear to be popping up at the rate of knots. Is it a desire to be recognised as a community leader? Is it to obtain a job at the centre and thus enable income? Or is it a real desire to promote integration?

My view is this. It does not need vast amounts of funding to promote integration between different communities. Perhaps the next chap deciding on opening a community celebration centre would pause for a moment or two and consider that he may achieve just as much if not more community integration by taking a group of white and non white children for a game of cricket or football in the local park. That won't cost a cent and I suspect will do a lot of good to promoting harmony and understanding amongst the next generation of adults.
