Brexit and Multiculturalism

The people of Britain made their decision by a slim majority of 52 per cent to 48 percent to Leave the EU. After months of heart-wrenching debates and all the leverage that the Remain side with the Prime Minister David Cameron and his opposite, the Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, could apply, the people decided staying within the EU was not positive for Britain’s future...

...Immigration, it bears repeating, and what it together with multiculturalism have done to Britain in incrementally unraveling its very special place in history, over-rode the arguments in favor of remaining in the EU. The peril of open-door immigration was foreseen many years ahead of the decision made to join the European Common Market (the predecessor to the EU) ratified by a referendum held in June 1975.

Nearly half-century ago Enoch Powell, a Conservative MP and a member of the shadow cabinet led by Edward Heath, spoke out on the perils of open immigration that came to be known as the “Rivers of Blood” speech.

At a Conservative Party gathering in Birmingham on April 20, 1968, Powell warned how unrestricted immigration was inexorably and unalterably changing the nature of British society....

...The policy of multiculturalism is based on the spurious idea that all cultures are equal and, therefore, deserving of equal respect and treatment. In effect, this means that the liberal democratic culture of the host country, since multiculturalism as a policy or doctrine is nonexistent outside of the West, is equal to or no better than nonliberal or illiberal cultures of non-Western societies. Hence, multiculturalism is one of the most insidious assaults on liberal democracy based on the hard-won principle of individual rights and freedoms.

There are two ways to introduce multiculturalism:

A) Immigrants contribute the better elements of their culture as they peacefully assimilate into the host country.
B) Immigrants forcefully impose the worst elements of their culture, as the refuse to assimilate.

There is a lot of B going on, while the leftist elite would have us believe that the public is stubbornly opposing A, which we don't.

It wasn’t as deep or complicated as all that. Folks outside of London and the welfare states of Scotland and Northern Ireland saw the EU as a complete and utter screwover. So they voted out. In huge numbers. The population of London is the only reason it was evdn close.

Beware, though. The Brit politicians don’t like Brexit and will do all they can to frustrate the result.

I would love to read the whole article but the pop-ups are too annoying.

You're right BitWielder.

Elites are also using ‘multiculturalism’ as a weapon to keep wages down and ‘control’ high.They don't give a damn about 'third world types'... they care themselves staying on the grave train...
