Stiff Upper Suicide

England is in the middle of a profoundly disturbing social experiment. For the first time in a mature democracy, a Government is waging a campaign of aggressive discrimination against its indigenous population.   
In the name of cultural diversity, Labour attacks anything that smacks of Englishness. The mainstream public are treated with contempt, their rights ignored, their history trashed. In their own land, the English are being turned into second-class citizens.
[…]
Almost every interaction with any public service now leads to a detailed analysis of one’s ethnic status. A vast race equality industry has been built up, filled with overpaid paper shufflers, consultants and advisers with little to do except invent new grievances.  
There is an air of the Maoist permanent revolution about their activities. Since immigration now runs at probably one million people a year, the make-up of society is changing dramatically. So, in this climate of endless demographic upheaval, the race relations brigade will always be able to invent more work for itself.
[…]
Yet anti-English discrimination undermines the central plank of the propaganda for mass immigration. We are constantly told we need vast influxes of foreigners to boost our economy and fill vacancies but unem­ployment levels in immigrant communities are so high and skills so lacking that we need to reserve parts of our economy for them.
So if we have to spend a fortune on training schemes, why are we inviting hundreds of thousands of arrivals from the Third World and Eastern Europe here every year?

  1. You vote left, you suffer the oppression and tyranny of the left.
    The fix is simple. Don’t vote left.
    England is doomed by its own stupidity.
    I hope the Scotish Nationalists are sucessful. Scotland is polluted by England’s politics and England is polluted by Scotland’s politics. A sucessful parting would improve both places.

  2. I’d hardly call Blair a lefty, he’s occupies a space to the right of Margaret Thatcher on the political spectrum.
    The article is an example of cherry picking personal anecdotes to prove what you already feel. Most Brits acknowledge that immigrants are hard working and willing to do jobs that Brits don’t want. A lot of employers will hire poles over Brits when it comes to things like cleaning jobs and working in CARE homes because the poles work their butts off. Same goes for most immigrants, racist ideologues aside most Brits don’t have a problem with immigrants based on their personal experience.
    The country needs them to as the Brits are emigrating in vast numbers. Basicaly Brits are importing people, selling them houses and then buggering off to sunnier countries with the proceeds.
    And that latter part isn’t being driven by government it’s largely due to a national obsession with wanting to live in a country with better weather.

  3. Accuracy or fearmongering…
    “Since immigration now runs at probably one million people a year…”
    Pop. of England in 1991 – 48,067,300
    Pop. of England in 2005 – 50,431,700
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_of_England

  4. Same here, we raised immigration even though we don’t need it. Our population is expected to grow for decades without 1 immigrant showing up, the people don’t want it and they are more reliant on welfare EI.
    Sure they ‘say’ it creates wealth but if thats so why does Toronto have so many unemployed.
    6.9%

    Canada does not need immigration but putting evil whites in the minority makes Trudeau happy.
    Couse being a racist ideologue I’ll use actual numbers instead of lame rhetoric.
    If foreigners are so hard working why are their per capita GDP’s so much worse than Canadas?

  5. No way Jose:
    http://shaidle.blogmatrix.com/:entry:shaidle-2007-08-06-0001/
    >”Ironically, one of the main reasons for leaving is the overstretch of services due to increasing immigration into the UK. People are looking for the better standard of living offered by other countries, as even the most idyllic villages in Britain are under pressure from rising populations.
    >”And time and time again they are saying to us they don’t want to be seen as racist because they are quitting because of immigration. We tell them of course they’re not.”
    Iberia, quoting Wikipedia is a sign of stupidity. Please try factoring in all the English born who are leaving. (See above)
    Remember: There’s nothing wrong with “fearmongering” when there is actually something to fear.

  6. The Welsh know a thing or two about massive influxes of foreigners.
    There will be no Churchill, no fighting on the beaches. Westminster will be a mosque sooner rather than later. Time to move on.
    Welcome, English immigrants! We have all the space you need.

  7. Jose,
    “I’d hardly call Blair a lefty, he’s occupies a space to the right of Margaret Thatcher on the political spectrum.”
    I can see three reasons for posting something so at odds with reality:
    1) you’re on crack,
    2) you don’t understand politics, events or history,
    3) you’re putting us on and don’t really believe what you wrote (trolling)
    Blair is a left/socialist. Not as bad as most in his party but domestically, he’s hard left. He’s hawkish on foreign policy but so were most on the left, right and centre in the western world until recently. JFK was a lefty on domestic issues but still hawkish on foreign policy.
    The UK under Blair’s labour party has been heading towards the toilet. The government has expanded not just in size but also the oppressive, intrusive, big-brother territory which even socialists in Toronto would rebel from. The restrictions to liberty in the UK make Bush’s patriot act look like the bill of rights.

  8. S. Weasil,
    That’s the moral pollution that is heading north.
    The moral pollution that is heading south is Scotish labour MP’s like the new PM.
    Separation would be a good first step to ending that corruption of their politics. I’m of the same opinion on the value of keeping Quebec. I think we’d both be better off apart.

  9. Iberia,
    Deaths are a factor in the populations, but the bigger one by far is out-migration, mostly of native Britons. There’s been alot of news stories on it recently- demographic replacement. Netherlands too

  10. My in-laws went to England to see family and friends and my mother-in-law mentioned that many people told her that the country was being ruined by immigrants. She quickly made the “immigration is wonderful” speech to the rest of us, and I sat there thinking “you have no idea what’s going on in the country of your birth, do you?”
    Being a Globe & Mail reader will probably do that to you.

  11. I’d hardly call Blair a lefty…
    Third Way leftists are still leftists.
    Probably why you think Blair is on the right is that Third Way socialism (partnership of gov’t and business either through regulation or direct ownership) bears so much resemblance to Hitler’s Germany.

  12. lberia and Jose: I’d like to direct your attention to a comment made during a debate featured here at SDA recently:

    “I am against this pseudo multi culti ism as well. People should come straight out and call it what it is – a project to eliminate the predominance of the Anglo-Saxon culture and values under the guise of the promotion of minority culture and relativism.”

    http://blazingcatfur.blogspot.com/2007/08/love-ismulticulturalism.html#comment-2720931412059541720
    The guy who wrote it is named Kaptaan, of the blog “Singh On The World”. For greater clarity, he is not white. My point here is that for some time now guys like you have made good sport of calling guys like me racist and such. No hard feelings.
    Anyway, the jig is up. You can deflect today’s two minute hate, and maybe tomorrow’s, but the mountain of evidence piling up that “Anglo-Saxon culture and values” are under attack severely condemns your credibility.
    PS I find this nugget of peace and goodwill on Kaptaan’s masthead:
    “”When all peaceful means are exhausted (in fighting tyranny), It is righteous, indeed, to unsheath the sword.” – Zafarnama, Guru Gobind Singh Ji
    And you idiots have the nerve to attack Christians…

  13. Recently, I got into a discussion with a Liberal-supporting “moderate” friend of mine on the topic of race politics, affirmative action and such.
    During that conversation, I think I stumbled upon a rule-of-thumb for understanding the liberal / socialists / democrat crowd:
    I kept insisting that race shoud NEVER be an issue or a consideration. That in a society of educated and compassionate people, we should all be racially colour-blind.
    My buddy argued, “We are all somewhat racist by instinct…it is only a matter of what you do with it.”
    I am now convinced that that is the difference between the conservatives and liberals of this world when it comes to race and multiculturalism…conservatives see society (and societies attitudes) as being something we make better by judging people “not by the colour of their skin – but by the content of their character.”
    Liberals are fatalists in that they think “We are all racists…it can’t be helped. So, lets be martyrs by turning racial bigotry on ourselves.”
    The liberals in both Canada and the US are responsible for nearly all race-based (segragationist) laws. From slavery to Chinese head taxes to limits on whites entering the public service.
    The liberal slogan should really be, “Which identifiable group do we want to hate today?” To them, hate based on race/religion/ethnicity is inevitable. It’s just a matter of choosing which group.

  14. The Brit left is clearly schitzophrenic and well on the way to the micro managed society that Victorian social Darwinists used to only dream of.
    The labor party that carries the banner of “class struggle” of the under classes has made the English middle and working class a perennially repressed and regulated under class to a new patrician/political class which approximates the Victorian Aristocracy in the old Tory party…..contemptuous of individual freedoms and the common person….harsh and aristocratic in their regulating.

  15. Theodore Dalrymple(a Brit) sums up how corrupt and shallow Blair was in this issue of City Journal. Hey, Jose, this should be required reading for you before you spout off any more of your uninformed drivel.
    No British prime minister in 200 years has done more to curtail civil liberties than has Blair. Starting with an assumption of his infinite beneficence, he assumed infinite responsibility, with the result that Britain has become a country with a degree of official surveillance that would make a Latin American military dictator envious. Sometimes this surveillance is merely ludicrous—parking-enforcement officers’ wearing miniature closed-circuit security cameras in their caps to capture abusive responses from those ticketed, say, or local councils’ attaching sensing devices to the garbage cans of 3 million homes to record what people throw away, in order to charge them for the quantity and quality of their trash.
    ———
    Further, Blair’s wife, Cherie, is a lawyer who now practices little, but who by convenient coincidence—immediately before a general election, and at a time of Muslim disaffection with Labour over the Iraq War—appeared before the highest court in the land, defending a 15-year-old girl who claimed the right to wear full Muslim dress in school. It turned out that an extreme British Islamic group backed the case legally and financially.

  16. “So if we have to spend a fortune on training schemes, why are we inviting hundreds of thousands of arrivals from the Third World and Eastern Europe here every year?”
    Job security for desk pilots and ESL teachers, obviously. If they cut the civil circus half the country would be out of work.
    Same as here. The one thing we have going for us is our weather is crap. Nobody picks Canaduh as a first choice, and once they get here nobody moves out of Moronto if they can possibly help it.

  17. Re Iberia’s unintelligent observation, via Wikipedia: Not only have people died and left the UK, what about the below replacement level birthrate?
    If you can’t play with the big kids, Iberia, go back to your sandbox.

  18. “I’d hardly call Blair a lefty, he’s occupies a space to the right of Margaret Thatcher on the political spectrum.”
    Try reading a history book once in a while. Perhaps, you wouldn’t sound so stupid. Of course, I doubt you expect your comments to be taken seriously. Trolls seldom do.

  19. And anuther thing, now that I think of it.
    The Left is not about good social policy. It is not about equality. It is not about fairness.
    They say they are for sure, but when you strip away the talk and just watch the way they walk the Left is about coercion and control. They like to make people do what they say, they don’t really care if any good comes out of it.
    Immigration from the Third World doesn’t benefit the country either socially or economically? Not important, that wasn’t the point! The point was to get a bunch of new vote-serfs in to keep Labor in power. Labor gets a chance to hammer all those Conservative voting white people, major bonus!
    Gun control not reducing crime? That wasn’t the point! The point was to increase Liberal opportunities for graft, take advantage of the MSM gun-hatred propaganda machine in 416/905 Ontario, and hammer Conservative voters. Perfection in social policy!
    One tier medicine? Awesome! Just think of the gigantic bureaucracy to rule over, the freely flowing money for all the sticky fingers to handle. Sucks for the patients and the tax payer, TOO FRICKIN’ BAD, healing the sick isn’t the point.
    Sorry, my p’d off button got stuck there.

  20. Warwick “The restrictions to liberty in the UK make Bush’s patriot act look like the bill of rights.”
    Maybe it’s all the crack I’m smoking but I missed the meeting where privatized everything in sight including the orphanages, banning every vice imaginable, cutting taxes on the rich while simultaneously raising them for the poor, segrating state funded schools by religion, reintroduced the teaching of creationism in state funded schools and introduced some very scary “anti terrorism” measures became Liberal issues.
    But perhaps I missed a memo.
    Blair is the slippery weasel who got away with the things that Margaret Thatcher could only dream of doing.
    Btw, Warwick I suspect you’ve got a lot of anger to work off over something but I’d suggest finding another outlet other than insulting people anomynous strangers on the Internet. It ain’t good for the soul dude and there’s better ways to make a point. Peace.

  21. Good thing the government has already disarmed all Brits. That way, there can be no unsightly armed uprising to stymie this noble exercise in utopian nation building. God save the Queen. No, I really mean it. Literally. God save the Queen…..and every other white Christian Brit as well. They’ll need all the saving that God can muster.

  22. Jose,
    “Maybe it’s all the crack I’m smoking but I missed the meeting where privatized everything in sight including the orphanages, banning every vice imaginable, cutting taxes on the rich while simultaneously raising them for the poor, segrating state funded schools by religion, reintroduced the teaching of creationism in state funded schools and introduced some very scary “anti terrorism” measures became Liberal issues.”
    None of these things were done by Blair. Blair is the PM of the UK, not the Pres of the US. Purhaps you missed that in geography.
    My point is that Blair has intruded into every aspect of people’s lives with socialist, oppressive, big-brother laws regulating everything that moves. Even “piggy banks” have been banned in places under Blair’s anti-racism laws designed to allow Muslims to oppress the rest of society with their own religious decrees. All of which are leftard policies.
    The state’s role in UK society has skyrocketed.

  23. lberia just to be fair, notice emmegration is high also.
    But yeah, not millions, maybe 500,000 in and 300,000 out.
    http://www.statistics.gov.uk/cci/nugget.asp?id=1311
    During the years 1998 to 2003 net inflows fluctuated around a much higher level, with between 139,000 and 172,000 more people migrating to the UK than leaving each year. The net inflow of 223,000 in 2004 was the highest since the present method of estimation began in 1991.

  24. If the “shooting” starts in Canada,GB etc I hope they remember to shoot behind first.

  25. Warwick “None of these things were done by Blair.”
    Wrong.
    “Blair is the PM of the UK, not the Pres of the US. Purhaps you missed that in geography.”
    I’m going to be charitable and assume that you’re just pretending to be obtuse to wind me up.

  26. Jose,
    With the exception of the anti-terror laws which are shared by every developed nation (france’s anti-terror laws were 10 times as intrusive than the UK’s or the US’s post 9/11 laws BEFORE 9/11, and they’ve gone even farther since) what blair is doing is left.
    The religious funding is not even remotely the same as that of the US. Blair is kowtowing to the Muslims which is left, not right. Blair is not going to be funding Christian schools and creationism. He’s banning Christian sysmbols in public so as not to offend Muslim. He wanted to intruduce Muslim public schools. Not Christian – Muslim. This is not Bush policy by Blair.
    Labour privatizing? You jest.
    Unless you mean the usual lefty canards about driving without seatbelts, smoking, drinking and riding a bike without a helmet, what “banning every vice immaginable” do you refer? He enacted same sex unions (although fell short of full equality.) Hardly puritan.
    Instead of putting violent criminals in jail, he has banned all guns (a liberal policy) while making it an offence to defend yourself agains criminals. Not NRA-friendly.
    In fact, so obsurdly left is Blair on crime that you now have government hacks yelling at people through speakers for littering because there are cameras on every corner. Giant two-way tv screens in every house to follow.
    I also haven’t heard of tax cuts in the UK at all. For anyone. The idea that the labour party would reduce taxes for anyone is a stretch. The idea that Labour would drop taxes for the rich and raise them for the poor is an idea drawn from an alternate reality in a universe far, far away.

  27. Canadians seem to be the “head in the sand” not only the brits. We had a wonderful culture and unity 30 years ago. Now Vancouver is over 50% asian, crime is nuts, east indians killing wives is endemic, and now our two universities are installing special washrooms for muslims to bathe their special way before praying 5 times a day. Church and state are to be separate in Canada which WAS a secular country. No more.
    The answer; Close Canada to “open” immigration. Only Canada, US, Britain, New Zealand and Australia have “OPEN’ immigration.
    Make it selective. Immigrants must speak the language, have a trade, or money or education. No automatic letting in the relatives and aged fathers and mothers who have not put in a dime to our healthcare but each can cost us hundreds of thousands in healthcare. Every other country in the western hemisphere was settled by immigrants. Why do we have to carry all the load. We all come from immigrants! So? So what!
    I feel absolutley no relationship to these surley, sulkey, demanding, non-english speaking new Canadians
    But Canadians futz arround this question without allowing or entering into any meaningful debate. Nobody but me seems to question our immigration minister, our MP’s Etc. What the hell is the reason Canadians watch the de-racinating policy of govt and say nothing? Our Canadian culture is gone. Multiculturalism means NO Culture. It is a political word to quiet the masses while the only subjugation of a people by it’s own people in history is taking place. What say You???

  28. “I’d hardly call Blair a lefty…”
    The observation of a “trekkie” trying to make sense of modern power politics. 😀
    Realities are not a stark and black and white as a sci-fi screen play 😀
    Blair is another one of these modern power-globalist types with no defined political partisanship…he’s a career Bureaucrat and was pulled through the martial monolith of MI5.
    If there is any label you can pin on a political chameleon like Blair it would be that he is an autocratic statist…..and his construction of the Orwellian surveillance society points to that.

  29. The York Region School Board Fall Course Guide was delivered to our mailbox last week. The Elementary International Languages Program is available to all school children in grades SK-8 and funded by the Ontario Ministry of Education to provide “any child with the opportunity to read, write and speak a new language or maintain heritage language and culture”.

    It offers over 70 classes at many different schools in the following languages: Arabic, Cantonese, Farsi, Greek, German, Gujarti, Hebrew, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Traditional Mandarin, Simplified Mandarin, Punjabi, Russian, Spanish, Tamil, Urdu, and Vietnamese.

    I am a stranger in a strange land.

  30. Just a passing thought.
    “For the first time in a mature democracy, a Government is waging a campaign of aggressive discrimination against its indigenous population.”   
    “The mainstream public are treated with contempt, their rights ignored, their history trashed. In their own land, the English are being turned into second-class citizens.Almost every interaction with any public service now leads to a detailed analysis of one’s ethnic status.”
     ”A vast race equality industry has been built up, filled with overpaid paper shufflers, consultants and advisers with little to do except invent new grievances.” 
    Any of these quotes remind you of the formerly great nation called Canada? 
    Cheers, and happy multiculturalism!

  31. “So… can we start a White Pride group finally? And where do I sign up?”
    Ah, but that’s what they expect us to do. If it were me, I’d create a federal party and call it “The Activist Party” or some such thing. It would be a parody of all things Trudeaupian, taken to a ridiculous degree. The platform would advocate mandatory abortion, relocating the oilsands to Quebec, forcing white men to wear yellow armbands, that sort of thing.

  32. Most Brits acknowledge that immigrants are hard working and willing to do jobs that Brits don’t want.
    If thats true then we don’t need affirmative action.
    This trend was highlighted this week by the case of Abigail Howarth, a bright teenager who applied for a training position with the Environment Agency in East Anglia but was turned down because she was too white and English. The post, which carries a £13,000 grant, was open only to ethnic minorities, including the Scots, Welsh and Irish.
    I guess she didn’t want that job. idiots.

  33. I left out how many people die per year? I left out how many people emmigrate from England per year? I left out what the racial break down of immigrants is? WTF? These are the things that should have been in the article.
    This article is pure fearmongering…it doesn’t even offer a precise number of immigrants. After reading it one can imagine a million brown people a year flooding the shores of England.
    Perhaps the question should be why do western countries allow so many immigrants. The short answer is because this is what business interests want. An underpaid labour pool to use and pseudo growth for the markets. Growth, growth growth…that’s what we want. So this is just another one of the benefits of capitalism. Enjoy.

  34. A recommended blog by a Brit on what’s going on in Britain:
    uppompeii1.uppompeii.com

  35. Concerning the post by neil thompson at August 15, 2007 1:24 PM: I couldn’t have said it better myself. Our “culture” has been reduced to rerund of Bob & Doug, eh.
    Quickly now, anyone answer this without using the “I’m not American” reason: “What makes you a Canadian”?

  36. “Perhaps the question should be why do western countries allow so many immigrants. The short answer is because this is what business interests want.”
    Exactly right. Immigration benefits capital at the expense of labor. Immigration may help employers, but I would hardly call it “capitalism” to undercut the wages of every employee in every job in the country by flooding the country with foreigners. Stopping mass immigration would tighten the labor market and force up wages for every working person in Canada. Bay Street may whine about imaginary “labor shortages” but what they mean is a shortage of Canadians willing to work for minimum wage. All working Canadians should support a drastic reduction in immigration for their own economic interests. And Bay Street can go hang.

  37. Jose,
    Are you a troll? Normally trolls are ignored but your comments were so bizarre I’m trying to understand why you said them.

  38. As for Britain, the Labour party is downright treasonous with their blatantly anti-English mass Third World immigration policies. The Liberal Democrats are no better. The Conservatives under the excrable Boy Cameron aren’t worthy of the name. The party of Churchill and Thatcher is now a Labour-lite collection of environmental extremists, Islamic apologists and anti-white immigration enthusiasts.
    All patriotic Brits should vote either BNP or UKIP, whichever has the better chance of winning in that particular riding. Only these two parties are willing to stop the Third World invasion and conquest of Britain.
    Keep Britain British and send the Pakistanis packing.

  39. “what they mean is a shortage of Canadians willing to work for minimum wage.”
    Exactly. I could never could understand why the so-called compassionate progressives seem to think it’s a great idea to import a huge pool of cheap labour and thereby hurt wages for other people. Steinbeck’s classic Grapes of Wrath is taking place once again, only this time it’s being aided by the left.

  40. It’s not just the so called compassionate progressives…take note of how the US government is dealing with illegal immigrants.

  41. I’ve been saying it for years… Britain is circling the toilet bowl of history.
    Most of the blame goes to the labour party and the socialist movement. But not all…

  42. Some people just simply bitch about what is going on in their own countries, and others get off their backsides and do something about it; unfortunately, by the time most people realize it is do or die, it is too late.
    Poor Britain; the British used to have a backbone, but now they’ve been reduced to spineless, apathetic doormats.
    We’re importing Mexicans into my neck of the woods….a few here, a few there…..but before you know it, even the Newfies will be outnumbered.

  43. take note of how the US government is dealing with illegal immigrants.
    And? They haven’t done a thing. Have they? What’s your point?
    What part of ILLEGAL do you not get?
