Majority of Britons see Muslims as a threat: Poll

[Lord ZeN]

The figures from the poll show there has been a large decrease in the proportion of people who think multiculturalism benefits Britain.

British public is more concerned about Muslims than even just after 7/7

LONDON: A majority of Britons regard Muslims as a threat to the UK and over a third of the total population believes that multiculturalism makes the country worse, according to a new poll.

The poll, commissioned by the Huffington Post and conducted by YouGov, also showed that more than three quarters of people surveyed -- 79 per cent -- believe another attack on the scale of 7/7 in Britain is likely.

The poll was conducted as the the 10th anniversary of the 7/7 attack in Britain approaches.

The research found 56 per cent of people think Islam is a "major" or "some" threat to Western liberal democracy -- a notable rise from just 46 per cent of people who said the same thing in a poll taken the day after the attacks on London's transport network on July 7, 2005.

Over a quarter of people (27 per cent) said they saw Islam as a "major threat" to Western liberal democracy, a jump from 19 per cent who said the same in a YouGov poll conducted on the day after the 7/7 bombings.

The suicide attacks on July 7, 2005, killed 52 victims and injured nearly 800 others when four bombs went off at Edgware Road, Aldgate and near Russell Square Tube stations, and on a bus in Tavistock Square.

The figures from the poll show there has been a large decrease in the proportion of people who think multiculturalism benefits Britain.

Just 37 per cent felt that multiculturalism made Britain a better place to live while 38 per cent said it makes the country worse, according to the poll.

This is a marked dip from a 2005 poll by the research company IPSOS Mori, in which 62 per cent people said multiculturalism made Britain a better place.

Taken before the recent beach massacre which killed at least 30 British tourists in Tunisia, the poll showed a marked rise in negative attitudes towards Muslims.

The poll also showed a decrease in proportion of people agreeing that most British Muslims were "peaceful, law- abiding citizens who deplore terror attacks in the name of Islam".

Just a fifth of people (20 per cent) said this phrase applied to "practically all" Muslims, and 60 per cent said it applied to most Muslims, a decrease from 23 per cent and 64 per cent respectively 10 years ago.

More people -- 15 per cent -- now agree with the statement that "a large proportion of British Muslims feel no sense of loyalty to this country" and are prepared to "condone or even carry out acts of terrorism". A decade ago, only 10 per cent of people agreed with this statement.

YouGov polled 1,578 British adults for the daily between June 23 and 24, 2015.

Don't bother you will be under threat. But if you still do I run a 'Muslim protection racket' in UK and will offer you as a prized 'PDF member' free cover.

Oh come on, it's not that bad. This is inspite of the retards joining ISIL, so far 700 or so.
But I do agree that the horrible filth that pollute the community are tarring the reputation of the whole.

Just look at this.

Muslims need to do more. Although many are moving now, there is a lot of ground to catch up.

FACTS about TERRORISM in UK

As of 2015 the total number killed in UK by "Muslim terrorists" is below 60

As of 2015 the total number killed in UK by "other terrorists* ) is nearly 3,600

List of terrorist incidents in Great Britain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Troubles - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is the reality but it is always distorted by media and politics. The only major law and order problem we have had in UK recently was the 2011 England Riots. No Pakistani or Muslims were involved. All Pakistani majority areas remained calm. In fact where I live not a leaf dropped while on TV I could see large parts of UK including London on fire.

Instead these riots were driven by Black or whites ( who thought they were black ) and resulted in five deaths. Three of the victims were Pakistani - Haroon Jahan, Shahzad Ali and Abdul Musavir who were driven over in car being driven by Black rioters while protecting their properties.

Funny enough,yes,it's Birmingham the place i would move to if i accept.

I have lived in Birmingham in the past so I know it quite well. There are areas that are what you might call "Muslim ghetto" around Stratford Road but trust me they are relatively safe if you put up with the beards and Hijabi fashionista's.

However why not check out the "Black ghettos" around Winson Green which the media seem to overlook. Be warned though, clamp your car and hide your mobile ....

In all this phobia they forget about the Pakistani victims like Shazad's dad.

Brother of Abdul Qudoos who was killed talks. The British Pakistani were the victims

I am ashamed at the amount of Bengali retards that are leaving the UK to join ISIS.

These idiots have no brain and are not only harming themselves but all other Muslims
in the UK.

 

[Styx]

people like these being the loudest voices of the community is what leads to people viewing muslims as a threat.

moderates and otherwise 'normal' people need to take charge and suppress the wahhabis
