Britain nowadays is a multi-cultural country and this means that it is now a mixture of different races and cultures in one community. simples !

When aksed for a named example of racial issues, Stephen Lawrence could be used: he was a young black man who got stabbled by a number of people but the police did not look into the situation as there was racism in the police force.

You could also say about how the government said muslims ladies could not wear their face veils, i know racist right ?

• immigration: moving to a different counrty.
• assylum seekers: trying to get into another country.
• refugees: could be in danger therefore linking to the right to life (human right). ps. hello kitty loves you

The commonwealth is what keeps all the countries happy with each other by holding events like the commonwealth games.

International: the United Nations started as a result of a war, and its there to output rights and responsibilities on a global level (peacekeeping organisation)

Local and National: the Europian Union consists of 27 countries and is very costly to be part of. It deals with imports and exports and jobs including trade marketing.

When asked about the EU in the exam you have to mention the impact of it on our lives, sooo for example its good because when we go on holiday its easy as we can use the euro as the country will be part of the EU saving us hustle..good right ? ps. hello kitty loves you
