Britain is truly unique in its multiculturalism. The main reason Britain has become a “melting pot” of nations is the long history of immigration in Britain. More recently, the British Empire and the Second World War have had a serious impact on the number of immigrants in Britain.

Of course, there are some problems. Although there are laws against racial discrimination, people from ethnic minorities are more likely to do unskilled jobs or be unemployed than the majority of the population. However, there are also many examples of people from ethnic minorities occupying the best and most prestigious jobs.
