I have had several visits to Cyprus in preperation of moving next year, and i would say as an outsider the British quite often make there own problems and one major problem is how they live.

If i can make a easy comparison, over here in the UK typically many of the Asians live in there own areas and the general opinion of brits is 'Bloody Indians, coming over here and taking over our areas, who do they think they are.'

Well it seems to me that the many (not all) Brits are guilty of the same thing and rather than mixing with the Cypriot population and becoming a part of Cyprus. They want to live in Little Brit Villages away from everything.

When we move we are hoping to live in a Cypriot area and live the Cypriot - Well thats what we are hoping.

Maybe if more Brits did this, they wouldnt get such a bad name for themselves.

I totally disagree, Foreigners come to the UK and try and change things ie building mosques, wanting to wear their turbans in schools etc. Fine if they want to live here but they should fit in with our culture just as brits should have respect for other countries and fit in with them!

B & S:

I totally disagree, i live in a City called Leicester and the city is divided into several sections: Asian, African, Muslim & White. Which is nothing unusual for a large UK city.

There are some exceptions and yes there are changes to the landscape, but pretty much the communities are divided.

My point is, people living/born in the UK moan about divided communities and 'people taking over'. All i am trying to say is that those same brits that leave the UK because of some of these issues then do adsactly the same thing when they move abroad and live in divided communities.

Sorry, but the facts speak for themselves.
