What did the explosion in Manchester, England reflect?

According to the British media bbc, on the night of May 22nd, an explosion occurred in a gymnasium in Manchester, England. The explosion happened near the ticket office of the gymnasium. After the terrorist attacks in Manchester, Britain 10 raised the national security alert level to the highest "critical" level for the first time in 0/0 years, which means that "there is clear information that new terrorist attacks may still occur".

Salman abedi, the suspect who has died in the terrorist attack, is of Libyan origin, which has aroused public concern about British immigration policy. To some extent, this terrorist attack reflects the integration of immigrants into British society and the entangled mentality of mainstream British society towards immigrants.

Reflects the problem of immigrant integration.

The explosion occurred at a time when political parties in Britain were in full swing for the general election on June 8. The polls are far ahead of the Labour Conservative Party, which proposed a harsh immigration policy. In the manifesto, the Conservative Party retained the goal of reducing the annual net migration to below 654.38+10,000, and put forward more policies to restrict immigration.

In order to implement the further tightening immigration policy, the Conservative Party also announced specific measures, such as raising the income threshold of the guarantor of the immigrant family reunion visa; Increase the application conditions for student visas, etc. At the same time, it is required to increase the fees paid by immigrants and international students when they receive national medical services, and increase the medical surcharge paid by migrant workers.

If immigrants have poor economic ability, lack of means to make a living and are encouraged by radical ideas, especially the extremist organization "Islamic State", their dissatisfaction with society can easily turn into violence. For example, abedi, a 22-year-old suspect in the Manchester City bombing, is a descendant of Libyan refugees. He lived at the bottom of society, worked as a bakery worker and recently visited Middle Eastern countries including Libya. Immigrants like abedi exist in many cities in Britain, especially in northern and northwestern cities represented by old industrial bases.

Improper handling may lead to a vicious circle.

Some experts pointed out that Britain may encounter a vicious circle in security if it is not handled properly in dealing with immigration and other issues. On the one hand, terrorist attacks will further strengthen the British government's belief that Britain will leave the EU; On the other hand, due to the tightening of immigration policy, it may cause further rebound.

British media said that the Manchester City attack triggered voters' concerns about security and counter-terrorism, which may make the Conservative Party's security and immigration policies more conservative, further intensifying contradictions and causing more troubles.

Since the first half of this year, there have been two terrorist attacks in Britain, and the security situation is worrying. Some analysts pointed out that the problem Britain is facing now is not only to combat terrorism, but also to solve a series of complex social problems such as immigrants' sense of integration, increasing employment and social welfare. If the government can't effectively improve and improve its social governance capacity, then the hidden dangers of British society will be difficult to remove from the root causes.
