>They're the most multi-racial areas and yet, minorities >don't have representation in government.
No, despite what your plenty of history books, magazines, journals, newspapers and other sources tells you, minorities have had some for a while and are getting more representation in governments. That said, the situation for minorities (usually immigrants.. up to third generation, normally first or second generation) is very bad in most european countries. But before you put a label on "Europe", it's best to wait and see how the so-called "new citizens", who are and will become a part of the authorities, will change the different countries. Last year my country got its first politician who has a so-called "immigrant background" (second generation, meaning her parents migrated to norway and she was born here), and her main cause is to be the voice of the minorities.

Do you honestly believe that your plenty of books and magazines and tv shows tells you where it stands?!
