English London has been replaced by multi-cultural London. There is no net loss of diversity here. Old cultures die and new ones form (just like languages, species etc). There is nothing to cry over here. I am in favor of a global state which prevents broader evil and within this state there should be no borders. One nation state. People get scared by this notion believing it will lead to 1984 but that is only one of many possible outcomes. Are cultures and languages more important than the universal freedom to go anywhere in the world without fetters?

Why is being able to go wherever you desire so important to you? And how exactly do you plan to reconcile fundamentally different belief systems (such as, say, modern liberalism and fundamentalist Islam)? By imposing some global beauracratic tyranny, I presume?

People with fundamentally different belief systems are not hostile to each other. I have seen people with very radical beliefs who are very accepting of people with opposite views. Almost always it is the politicians and people in charge of nation-states who divide so that they can rule easily (us vs. them mentality). We can achieve harmony and unity through means other than tyranny (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonviolence) .
