He's described as an Anti- Islam Populist with very hard line attitudes to immigration. He uses inflammatory language and has called Islam an ideology of retarded culture. There's a huge difference in discussing sensible immigration controls and what he proposes. He spreads hatred I'm not surprised Europe is worried, people like him make me worry!

Agree.
It should be possible to discuss the subject rationally. But deliberate inflammatory language immediately precludes that possibility.
Immigration is a problem with insufficient infrastructure to support it - and that doesn't appear to be a problem solely experienced by the UK.
The cultural issues are a different matter. And one where, again, inflammatory language doesn't help. But neither does ignoring the fact that some from different cultures don't accept the culture - the freedoms, especially those freedoms that women enjoy, in their chosen country.
Germany had a problem some years ago in this respect, and had to institute 'civic classes' where some men were taught about the constitutional rights of women. To put it delicately. We can't pretend this is not a problem - it may not be huge - but it is a problem. And when we ignore it - it fuels the hatred and inflammatory language (and worse) from the extreme Right.
