For British conservatism to be as successful as American conservatism, they need to do more to shed the "aristocratic" image they tend to carry over there.

Kid Rock and Ted Nugent are Republicans. Have we ever heard that Jimmy Page or Joe Elliot turned out to be Tories?

Hell, here in the US we're still fussing on whether or not to give illegal immigrants in-state tuition & home loans, let alone the skys-the-limit increases in legal ones.

Britain is further along in addressing the problem of 3rd worldization of their country than we are.

Good article, the word England could certainly be substituted for the USA.

As the Government's own Community Cohesion panel has pointed out, when it comes to securing public assent for new migration: "The pace of change is simply too great at present."

It appears that America needs a Community Cohesion panel to point out that same fact to our so-called leaders here. They sure aren't listening to what American taxpayers are telling them.
