Re: Should taxes fund positive discrimination?

Simple Jaysay, because we are mugs..........do we really think that providing translators is the way to get different communities to integrate into society?
No, it does just the opposite....it allows the ethnic cultures to remain separatist, because they have no need to learn the language.....and therefore they do not integrate.

Many translated documents are not read anyway by those for whom they were intended.......they cannot read.....and in some instances the dialects of their villages are different from what is published in the document.
Millions of pounds of NHS money is wasted every year on printing literature which is very little used.

It is all just 'window dressing' to pretend we are including the different ethnicities.
These cultures don't really want to be included. They want to retain their own little enclaves in the towns and cities of our country.
