The UK is in the process of liberalizing its immigration laws. Although there may be some way to go, we have a generally liberal and positive approach to immigration by skilled people. In particular there are now new categories of visa for entrepreneurs with good ideas but little money, and for people of exceptional ability.
 
The descendents of these immigrants are now the teachers, the footballers, the TV presenters, the musicians and the politicians that shape British society. There are numerous ethnic newspapers, magazines, TV programs, radio stations and internet sites for each community. The largest groups live in and around the capital London .
