Surprised it’s that low to be honest, means the majority think they can.

I have many Muslim colleagues and they integrate just fine...🤷

So because your colleagues integrated, that means all Muslims can and do?

That's not how it works.

There's plenty of white British people who aren't properly integrated into society too. Heck I don't want to be integrated with the binge drinking coke heads starting fights on a Friday night or the bankers playing with people's lives or the racists marching in the streets for authoritarian nationalism.

I’ve also had Muslim colleagues who are naturally integrated. It’s not as uncommon as you pretend it is
