There is nothing inherently good about diversity, other han possibly variety of food and beer.

THere is nothing inherently wrong with it either but the fact is that in Britain it has created a multitude of problems and hasn't solved any. It has been a challenge with no verifiable reward (beyond food).

I quite like it, and it doesnt really create problems for me. But that is me. It clearly creates problems for plenty of other people (verifiable problems with material consequences for public services, employment, housing etc) and is therefore not entirely a great thing.

But you cant say that. We must also celebrate it.

What is really wrong with saying that you dislike the challenges it presents without even remotely disliking any of the people or groups involved? Plenty, apparently.
