I've never encountered anyone of any minority who has had any objection to Christmas.

Whilst most people I know who aren't Christians obviously don't celebrate the religious aspect of Christmas, they tend to acknowledge and recognise the holiday and the festival. Their kids tend to get drawn into the commercial festival and all I know are happy to go along with it to a certain extent. People who have chosen this country as their home almost entirely respect the dominant religion and the views of the people who live there.

I strongly object to the Daily Mail, Britain First kind of mentality that is hell bent on dividing people and creating problems that simply don't exist. It is very harmful and is driving the world into a position it needn't be in.
The majority of people from ethnic minorities who follow different religions generally embrace Christmas, even if they do not fully celebrate it.

The biggest problem comes from the atheist community who seem to want to take any sort of religious meaning out of Christmas, apparently in fear of offending the aforementioned people of ethnic minorities, when the truth is they are actually happy to enjoy the Christmas period with their friends.
