    Very little information in that article. For example I would have expected something about Samhain - precursor to British Halloween in Ireland, Scotland, Celtic areas.

    And now too Diwali, the festival of light, is very popular in many parts of the UK - the only constant is change!

      Not particularly amongst the remaining indigenous-populated areas, it's only really a thing in the areas that have had large Indian-heritage populations transplanted there.
