Britain has become a nation of immigrants

Another surprise: it’s very good at assimilating people

Although the popular image of a migrant is a desperate young man floating across the English Channel, Britain’s foreign-born residents are frequently middle-class and slightly more female than male. 

They quickly get up to speed economically, and their children do strikingly well in school. 

The government makes no effort to disperse immigrants from ghettos, as, say, the Danish government does. Yet they disperse themselves anyway.
