Food for Thought From Across the Pond

From James C. Bennett:

Decades of multiculturalist educational policies have left large immigrant populations educated in their native languages and ignorant of British history, civic traditions and anything else needed to help them become part of civil society. Once again, the deliberate abandonment of assimilation reinforces the lesson that of democracy, immigration and multiculturalism, we must pick from any two.

(Tip of the hat to Andrew Stuttaford of NRO's "The Corner.")
