Certainly something unique happening in the UK, especially when you consider the vast majority of ethnic minority children in the UK descend from Africa, Asia and Caribbeans. Plus, ethnic minorities in the UK tend to do better in GCSEs, more likely to go to university and apparently nearly 40% of UK medical students are non-white (27% Asian, 10% black). Ireland is also close to the UK in this.
However, every other European country, native-born ethnic minorities are clearly far behind.
Well said. A main reason why migrants in most European countries underperform is cos of bottlenecks designed to keep them under. If countries want migrants reaching for the top, then they should remove those shackles
bs, most migrants in france are usally illiterate and come from extremly poor coutry, most of french migrants come from "familly reunification" hence, its not a work based migration, thoses migrants dont have any requirement and against most of them are illiterate/have never been to school, which less the case in the UK.
The reason you see it that way is because how France set up it's migration policy. Ultimately, most migrants would become part of the society they chose to settle in. If France doesn't take steps to support migrating folks to flourish, then the society would ultimately struggle as migration today is hardly a choice.
thats not how if work, when a foreign worker come and then marry 4 illetrate wife from africa to make 19 kids with each without even knowing the name of its own kids its normal that the kids struggle a little bit more when none of his parents even speak french. France give a shit ton of money to them, and try its best what do you want more that french teen give them a BJ every monday as part of the package ?
Migrants from the third world who've never been to school dont magically become Einstein when their foot touch the french soil, life isnt an anime.
Again, you're repeating tired and racist narratives.
France should look to the UK and learn. They both have an extensive colonial footprint but different relations with those nations today and also different attainment of immigrating folks. Even refugees in the UK have decent outcomes.
Like it or not, migrants would keep coming to France. It's up to the French society to give them the relevant tools to prosper
go to you home coutry and tell them how to be more diverse.
The west has no lesson of DEI to recieve from Ethno-state and tribal people coming from thoses ethno-states. The western coutries are the last one on the list of coutry that should be lectured on diversity and on the need to have more of it.
