The new multicultural Hastings

I was quite surprised to see two Muslim men wearing full-length, one-piece clothing, commonly called 'Abaya' at the lower end of Queens Road today.
They were going about their business peacefully enough, without a care in the world but looked strangely out of place somehow.
Nothing particularly wrong in my opinion and whether everyone agrees that it is good or bad to see Hastings suddenly turning into a multi-cultural town, there has been a real step-change in the last ten years, where we have witnessed a noticeable influx of many Indian, Black African, Chinese and Kurdish immigrants, to name but a few!
Nigel Farage appealed to the fears of the locals on the basis of unchecked immigration, supposedly entering from the EU, however it is too late in the day to make any difference now, wherever they are coming from.
'Little Britain' mentality has to and will change, regardless of public opinion being captured by crafty politicians.
