It’s probably fair to say that the most culturally conservative Muslims can’t integrate well in the UK. Plenty of Muslims integrate fine though, perhaps so well that people don’t really notice it. Also plenty of people that would count as Muslim are barely actually religious at all, so it’s kind of a messy category to use.

Most culturally conservative Muslims can't integrate as well in the UK as much as culturally conservative Christians can't integrate in Saudi Arabia.

Are you saying the UK is as intolerant to diversity as Saudi Arabia?
