Thursday 19 September 2013

Naturalising Newham

BBC Asian Network, Naturalising Newham - Special Report "The Mayor of Newham, Sir Robin Wales, is on a mission to make his borough British. He thinks that if you live in Newham, the UK's least white borough, you need to speak English and adopt British values and he has brought in a range of measures to this end. So, by pushing integration is he uniting people or alienating them? BBC Asian Network's Catrin Nye has this special report."
