If you don't mind, could I have a crack at this one?

I lived in Leicester for 6 years. It has a comparably high percentage of Muslims living there. At no point was I made to feel their way of life was at odds with my culture (as I define it), with the UK or anything like it.

What I think you're referring to is extremist or fundamental Islam. That's definitely against our culture but then again extremist anything is at odds with our culture.

I don't have the figures to hand but from my experience of living in Leicester as well as a few more years living in the Welsh capital (which also has a lot of Muslims) I'm pretty certain the vast majority aren't fundamental or extremists.
