QUOTE OF THE MONTH

‘In general, the language of an absolute “shortage” of workers, of a “need” for immigrants to fill gaps in the labour market, plays little useful role in the immigration debate and in most cases is simply economically illiterate. If we had fewer immigrants, the average wage rate of an office cleaner might be a bit higher, and businesses would either pay the extra charge, clean the office less frequently or use more efficient vacuum cleaners.

But we would not have some offices cleaned precisely as now and others not cleaned at all …

The idea that we “need” higher fertility or immigration to cope with the burden of a rising dependency ratio is therefore simply wrong, a polemic argument rather than a reasoned and fact based contribution to the debate.

We do not “need” more babies or immigrants to support an ageing population. It is wrong to say we need more immigrants and it is clearly wrong to say that everyone gains from immigration.

The simple answer to the question, “Do we need more immigrants and babies?”, is therefore, “No”.’

Lord Turner, speaking recently.

ANTI-ENGLISH COLONIALISM

‘There is no reason why we should accept the view that the modern western manner of constituting the state is the only true or proper one, and deny India and other non-western societies the right to indigenize the imported institution of the state and even to evolve their own alternative political formations. Rather than insist that the state must be autonomous and separate from society, and then set about finding ways of restoring it to the people, we might argue that it should not be separated from society in the first instance. And rather than insist that a state must have a uniform legal system, we might argue that it should be free to allow its constituent communities to retain their different laws and practices, so long as these conform to clearly laid down and nationally accepted principles of justice and fairness. Thus the law might require that a divorced wife must be provided for, but leave the different communities free to decide whether the husband, his family, or his community as a whole should arrange for her maintenance, so long as the arrangements are foolproof and not open to abuse and arbitrary alternation. If the multi-communal polities are to hold together and to avoid the all too familiar eruptions of inter- and intra-communal violence, they need to be extremely sensitive to the traditions values and levels of deveolopment of their constituent communities and may find the institutions and practices developed in socially homogenous liberal societies deeply subversive.’

Lord Parekh writing in 1993 [italics are his own emphasis].

The Archbishop of Canterbury’s recent public pondering about the alleged inevitability of the introduction of Sharia Law is not simply a case of him speaking dangerous nonsense. In fact, his views are those of a longstanding ideology. That ideology is shared by Labour, the multiculturalists and their supporters.

The agenda is anti-English colonialism and the promotion of the colonisation of England. This is includes not only the soft ethnic-cleansing of the English from English society – especially by the use of race quotas – but also the dilution and ultimate replacement of English culture. The aim is that Britain should become a ‘multicultural post-nation’ [see the English Rights Campaign item dated the 22 October 2005 on the Parekh Report].

Once the present brouhaha has died down, things will continue as normal and the multiculturalists will quietly promote Sharia Law. As we now know, it is already creeping into our society.

RACE WAR POLITICS

A survey of teachers and students has revealed that nearly 90% did not believe that children should be taught patriotism. They opposed plans for history and citizenship lessons aimed at fostering national identity and pride.

The report by the Institute of Education condemned British history as ‘morally ambiguous’ and said that patriotism should only be covered as a ‘controversial issue’. One teacher in the survey had said:

‘Praising patriotism excludes non-British pupils. Patriotism about being British in my experience tends to be a white preserve so divides groups along racial lines, when what we aim to do is bring pupils to an understanding of what makes us all the same.’

Michael Hand, the reports author, said:

‘The case for promoting patriotism in schools is weak. Patriotism is love of one’s country, but are countries reallly appropriate objects of love? Loving things can be bad for us, for example when the things we love are morally corrupt.

Since all national histories are at best morally ambiguous, it’s an open question whether citizens should love their countries.’

Chris McGovern, who is director of the History Curriculum Association, said:

‘We are actually causing children to be unpatriotoic by skewing the curriculum towards making children feel guilty aout their history.’

That, of couse, is the whole idea.

NATIONALISATION OF THE FAMILY

A recent report by the National Centre for Social Research has betrayed the true motive behind all the billions which Labour is squandering on various so-called childcare schemes. Social workers had stopped parents, whe were deemed to be poorly dressed, in the street and tried to pursued them to put their young children into childcare.

The social workers had been visiting shopping centres and were touting to fill a government scheme which offers free nursery places to 2-year-olds. Labour’s aim was to take control of childcare from the mothers and hence leave those mothers free to go out to work.

A report revealed that outreach workers have also been knocking on doors of targeted families.

However, the parents were reluctant to comply, with many stating that 2-year-olds were too young to be placed into childcare. They also preferred to bring up their own children at home.

THE CULTURE OF CRIMINALITY

The majority of organised crime in the UK is committed by foreign crime rackets, Bill Hughes, the director-general of the Serious Organised crime Crime Agency [SOCA], recently told MPs.

Sir Stephen Lander, SOCA’s chiarman, revealed that Vietnamese and Chinese gangsters were setting up large scale ‘cannabis factories’ across the country. The factories were producing high strength skunk cannabis on an ‘industrial scale’.

Sir Stephen also warned MPs that illegal immigrants were entering the country via South Africa. It has recently been revealed that 6,000 Indians had entered the UK via South Africa, paying up to £30,000. They used genuine passports which had been fraudulantly obtained.

The responsibility for the growth of organised crime lies squarly with the politicians and judges, who between them have been more than happy to shower illegal immigrants and so-called asylum seekers with English taxpayers money, which enables them to pay the organised crime rackets and is the incentive for those crime rackets to concentrate on people smuggling.

Just as prohibition fed the growth of organised crime in the USA in the 1920s, immigration is now feeding the growth of it in the UK today.
