Immigration

Change the record!

This one is so yesterday it makes Vera Lynn look modern.

The Great Replacement is just a conspiracy theory. It’s been debunked and discredited very thoroughly. Only people like you still take it seriously.

WWII. Vera Lynn sung for the gallant heroes that prevented the UK being invaded by hordes of foreign men. You can only imagine what coal/steel/textile towns in Northern England would be like had Hitler won the war ? shock, horror, probably not even English-speaking anymore ? and certainly a difficult place to find traditional English food and a C of E service ?

A bit like how English replaced Irish in Ireland.

Good article on it here:

Who cares that Britain is on course to be ‘minority white’?

As a study of migration, birth and death rates in the UK points to the white British population becoming a minority by 2063, Anand Menon says the only debate it ought to spark is not about immigration, but integration

www.independent.co.uk

“One newspaper’s report explained, rather curiously, that white British is “defined as people who do not have an immigrant parent”. Bad luck, then, all you non-white kids of an Irish, French or German parent. Unlucky, too, King Charles, Winston Churchill and Boris Johnson. By this metric, it seems that you no longer qualify as white British.


Beyond this rank stupidity, there is of course something else going on here. This is less dog whistle than plain old whistle. Dodgy extrapolations posing as predictions.”

indeed Dan. Imagine seeing your native culture extincted. If Hitler had won WWII, we would have Northern English towns awash with people who disrespect our War dead and diss the poppies of remembrance Sunday.

Irish language ‘definitely endangered’ as linguists predict it will vanish in the next century

Irish is one of 12 languages in the EU at most risk of extinction, according to language learning platform Busuu.

So is smash the gangs working???

‘Smash the gangs’: is Labour’s migration policy just a slogan?

The UK government is desperate to show it is preventing small boat crossings, but its PR-heavy approach may cause more problems with voters than it solves

It happens. Things change. There are reasons why they do. Rather than waste time and effort fighting the tides of change it’s better to embrace and enjoy them.

Cornwall is an example. No one here now speaks Cornish as their first language, whereas 200 years ago most people did. Then mining, farming and fishing were the major industries. Today it’s tourism and retirement. There are many, myself included, who weren’t born here. We are immigrants.

The Cornish language hasn’t died. It has been kept alive by enthusiasts and is now taught in schools. Similarly the culture has been maintained and because it’s freely shared with the incomers they treasure it too. It’s a homogeneous community with spirit. It’s changed but it’s still good.

So all change is good is it? You shouldn't try to mitigate detrimental change?

Good or bad is always a matter of perception. You can mitigate the impact of change on yourself but some change is unstoppable. You cannot stop evolution or the growth of knowledge. Both of them bring change.

Do you accept that some change is bad and should be mitigated as far as possible.

Smash the gangs was never going to work regardless of which government was in power. French Mayors have told us what we need to do and we don't listen. We need to stop being so attractive to migrants, why do you think the French don't house the illegals but leave them in tent camps or on the streets and make it difficult to claim asylum.

So stop giving them benefits and then they will no longer see the UK as the place paved with gold.

Looks like the riots in LA by foreign illegal invaders might be a glimpse into our future should something actually be done to get rid of and stop the illegals entering the country.

For anything within your own control that’s an entirely personal matter. On a national level, for things that you cannot change, it’s probably a waste of time and effort, but remains your choice. If you want to isolate yourself no one will stop you.

How do you decide which of the things cannot be changed.

How do you decide which of the things cannot be changed.

A challenging question.

Individually we need to decide how we will live with changes. Over the weekend I discussed Muslim presentation with a correctly presented couple. They told me that they had also noticed the lady in black with blond hair down to her waist outside her clothes and we agreed that this was an incorrect presentation.

I think I have answered enough dumb questions tonight. Especially one this obvious.

They aren’t riots. They are protests.

They aren’t by foreign illegal invaders. They are by citizens protesting about the aggressive behaviour of the immigration task force.

The local police force were managing the protests very effectively and arresting anyone who went too far. The responsibility for such matters lies with the State Governor.

This is a publicity stunt by Trump to please his base and divert attention away from his row with Musk.

It’s typical Trump. So is your reaction.

 

[eaglesdare]

The LA rioters who are mostly illegal aliens should be arrested for insurrection.

What a surprise he’s on here parroting Trump almost verbatim.

We are witnessing the latest Democrat effort to overthrow the USA and democracy.
