Shock Flintoff's anti-immigration outburst

Of all the people to be speaking against immigration Andrew Flintoff in a recent interview has said that he hates to see and talk to people in his own coutry who do not even know English.


I have no problems with a multicultural society, I think that is to the benefit of the country. But you have to be careful what levels you take it to.

It annoys me when I phone a hotel receptionist in my own country and they don't understand what I am saying because they don't speak English. I think that's wrong, it's nothing to do with being politically correct or incorrect, it's just not right.
Well he might be speaking the right thing but questions that this raises.
1) Is this question now so big that even celebs are getting involved and putting themselves into the firing line?
2) Why of all the people Flintoff would wanna say that especially risking his endorsements and IPL future

Why? He didn't technically say anything wrong.
I would find it very annoying to be in same situation as him. The point is that its a fact that multi multiculturalism has been taken too far. In all countries and frankly nowhere more than in UK. All kinds of people just make a beeline for UK considering it as their personal bastion And then they want their own culture and living ways to be applicable there. I don't think that's done.

Just look at the recent case that was turned down. The hindu's were fighting for rights of an open fire burial of their dead. It created an outrage in UK as for them the concept is alien. Same with Muslims. They walk in Burqua's and bring their own culture which will annoy the natives.

I don't see anything wrong in what Flintoff said. He had the guts to say it,, when many can't.

Look at what those folks wear when it is summer. Can you expect them to wear that in the metros?

Oh.. just realized. Indian metros are westernized these days

I take back my comment

^^ Yeah the point is for them to see women in black robes walking would be totally alien when they themselves would go on beaches topless

Working in an English hotel, I'd expect that a receptionist would be fluent in the home language as well.............
