Ok, but I still think you're crazy for not wanting to apply any standards of admission to immigrants.
Surely this should make clear to you how I define "foreigner" and "race".

I think you could phrase that a bit better PA. There's nothing wrong with respectful disagreement.

The only way to stop this spreading is put into effect a 'keep out' policy on immigration, this is the only sure way of making sure that a Northern Ireland situation does not appear in British cities. Now I know that there is a lot of arabs and africans etc. living here now, but with an education campaign focused on making them more British, not trying to make the majority adapt to their cultures, then this idea of multi-culturism will slowly die anyway.

Northern Ireland's problems are due to 450 years of bigotry, and intolerance on the part of the government.
Now, drawing the thread full circle, please explain why the policies of the BNP- intolerant bigots to a bastard- are the only way of ensuring this doesn't happen again.

Why is that not a preferable solution? The people already here will not be oppressed in anyway at all, it alleviates some British people's fears(like me ) that white people will become a minority within Britain in the decades to come and it will put an end to the fears of the minorities that a Nazi like government will be elected. |
Multi-culturalism is not about making the majority conform to the culture of the minority. It's about tolerance and sharing.
At current rates of migration, it would take centuries (not decades) for whites to become a minority, even allowing for a population decline among whites due to having smaller families. Possibly even millennia. You're getting panicked about nothing.

Well the best solution would have been to not run this multi-culturism experiment in the first place. However now that its in full swing, the only thing you can do is shut it down. I have already posted what policies I support, no to all asylum seekers and an education to teach British values, customs and traditions to the Arabs and Blacks that still act as if they were in their homeland.

Thats why multi-culturism is bad for Britain imo, the basis for a society is a common culture.

Because they will get rid of Multi-culturism.

This experiment has been running for centuries. Furthermore, I would argue that there are more cultural differences between me (a suburbanite) and a countryside dweller, than me and a second-generation Pakistani!

Not at all. Society is composed of several component cultures, sub-cultures, "tribes" and trends. This is of course if we are dealing with a large (~1M+) number of people. A measure of its liberalisation and stability is ironically the number and diversity of those elements, assuming they don't want to kill each other, which is the problem we have with multiculturalism at the moment, the delinquents of both sides symptomatic of hostility and repression.

Pray tell, how? I can only think of stopping immigration (again how?) which would not be good for the UK, assimilation, which again would fail as it has done before, and lead to generations of resentment, and throwing people with a different culture into the Solent. None of those are particularly appealing to me.

Lazarus- Because it is new, I think the last few times that a Multi-cultural Britain did exist was at the point of a sword with the Romans and then the Saxons which was hundreds and hundreds of years ago. And even then the culture of the Saxons was not that different from the Angles(?) living there at the time.
I call it an experiment because it's exactly the sort of thing mad scientist would try, introduce something new to an environment and sit back and watch the fireworks!

I'm desperately trying to avoid doing any homework, so I thought I'd give your example a go with some statistics from www.statistics.gov.uk
UK population as of 2002: 59,050,800
Of this, 92% is White: 54,326,736
and 7.9% non-white, a catagory including Asians, East Asians, Blacks, and mixed: 4,665,013
Migration out: 359,000
Migration in: 513,000
Net Migration for 2002: 153,000 into the UK
Asylum applications for 2003: 61,050
Deaths per 1000: 20.4
Now, if we assume the following things:
-The UK's population is static at roughly 60 million people
-All emmigration is white and all immigration is non-white
-All migration is from non-white countries outside the EU (a large chunk of migration is other EU citizens and Commonwealth members)
-All asylum claims are accepted (88% are rejected)
-White people stop having children (We may be below replacement levels but you breeders still keep having tykes) and start dying
-Non-white people magically become immortal
-No intergration of cultures into mainstream British society.
Then it will take just under 50 years for white Britain to become a minority (49%) and a full 100 years for it to be the same percentage as the current non-white population (7.9%).
Given the almost absurd circumstances needed for this scenerio (ie, immortality and such), I think the white population of the UK will stay a comfortable majority for another century or two yet.

Oh what a load of unhistorical tripe.
Do you really think that the Cornish are the same as the Geordies? Or the Welsh the same as people from East Anglia? At best all you have to link them is skin colour, which is really the crux of the matter for people like you and Park Avenue and Caligastia.
The first Chinatown in Europe? Liverpool in the 17th Century.
Sailors from the Yemen went and settled in the north east (that strange part of Britain that uses Norse derived dialect words to describe children and women- bairns and wives) and Somalians settled in Cardiff.
There has been an intermittent black presence in England since Roman times (nearly every sizeable town would have had black people living in it as servants in the 18th Century) and the Jews (who were never expelled from Ireland) were reinvited in by Oliver Cromwell.
Of course the problem with all racists is that they want contradictory things- they don't like Asians, or Africans or Jews because they're different, or they're scared of Jews 'assimiliating' because some of them look like white people, and you can't tell them apart from good Christians, or if the Asians and Africans do 'assimilate' they'll marry 'white' girls and dilute the 'master' race or take jobs from 'our boys' .
It's the same tired old spew that gets puked out every time- by Mosley pre-WWII and post-WWII and the National Front and the BNP in the 70s and 80s. The only thingthat really changed was the avidity with which some Conservative politicians jumped on the racism bandwagon, drawing some slope browed supporters away from the far right to the Tories- I remember the slogan well- 'If you want a n-gger for a neighbour, vote Labour.'
Perhaps you and Park Avenue could emigrate to Rockall or Gruinard- set up your own tighty whitey protectorate, free from alien influences like Latin, kebabs and curry powder, where you can celebrate the joy of being whiter than white with packets of Omo and episodes of 'Love thy Neighbour' and 'Mind Your Language' and deep fried stotties and stale beer....

I have been to cornwall and saw no important differences between there and Newcastle.

Totally irrelevant, I am not against small scale immigration where they do not create social problems on a national level.

You seem to have come to the conclusion that I am a racist, if thats what you want to call me then its fine by me,
even though I dont find Arabs or Africans genetically inferior in anyway. And I have no problem if they assimilate and marry white girls, its when they dont assimilate that its a problem.

Well it turned out true in the end didn't it? I voted Labour in '97 and there are a hell of a lot more black people around.

Starchild - If we can do something now that will prevent whites from becoming the minority in 200, 500 or even 1000 years then we should do. This is a long term problem that with determinaton and courage a leader could put an end to now.

Nonetheless, actions should be taken on their merits but the actions you propose have few compared to the alternatives for the given context. I agree that PC is no basis for political decisions but then you should not paint liberals as PC by default, since of course there are many aspects where PC is against liberalism. Yet the liberals don't have a persecution complex . I contend that what is best for Britain is for this nation to move in an increasinly liberal, and considered direction, rather than barracade ourselves inside an island of nostalgia, lager-louts and hyper-inflation. |
Whaleboy, I dont think I painted all liberals as PC, I said the "PC lobby" not the liberal PC lobby.
You may think an increasingly liberal society is best for Britain but in my opinion it will simply make us weaker. My ideal view of Britain is a nationalist nation where people put the countries needs above their own selfish desires for more money, more money and more money. I do not believe that we should barricade ourselves inside and island of nostalgia anymore than you do, yes we should be proud of our history but I do not want Britain to live a hundred years in the past, we should look forward to the bright future that Britain could have.
