(UK)Labour let in migrants 'to engineer multicultural UK'
Mail Online ^ | 10/24/2009 | Daily Mail Reporter

Posted on 10/25/2009 6:21:09 AM PDT by Altura Ct.

Huge increases in immigration over the past decade were a deliberate attempt to engineer a more multicultural Britain, a former Government adviser said yesterday.

Andrew Neather, a speechwriter who worked in Downing Street for Tony Blair and in the Home Office for Jack Straw and David Blunkett, said Labour's relaxation of controls was a plan to 'open up the UK to mass migration'.

As well as bringing in hundreds of thousands to plug labour market gaps, there was also a 'driving political purpose' behind immigration policy, he claimed.

Ministers hoped to change the country radically and 'rub the Right's nose in diversity'. But Mr Neather said senior Labour figures were reluctant to discuss the policy, fearing it would alienate its 'core working-class vote'...

...'This Government has admitted three million immigrants for cynical political reasons concealed by dodgy economic camouflage.

...'It is the first beam of truth that has officially been shone on the immigration issue in Britain.'

Liberal Globalism, no matter which nation is the victim, is sick

Run, run, run when you hear any technical term (such as “engineering”) used by politicians.

I remember coming away from some discussions with the clear sense that the policy was intended - even if this wasn't its main purpose - to rub the Right's nose in diversity and render their arguments out of date.

The same thing's happening in the US. I wonder if these nitwits ever stop to think that the only places on earth that are really becoming 'multicultural' are the nations founded by Europeans. How's multiculturalism coming along in India and China, and scores of smaller nations around the world? Plenty of people from all ethnic groups moving into all those nations?

Typical of the left, many of them wanted mass immigration to weaken traditional values and patriotism in Western nations. Also typical of the left, they seem to have zero capacity to look into the future and see what might replace what they so want to destroy.

For Britain to have fought off Vikings, Goths, Huns, Normans, Spaniards, French, and Germans, only to succumb to a bunch of unwashed ragheads without firing a shot is the most shameful — and possibly final — chapter in her storied history. From that day forth, “the scepter’d isle” will be known as “the scepter’d footstool.” This is the legacy of the left’s machination. It must not happen in the USofA.

Another story here:

And a link to the original Neather article, which is an outrage. Labor deliberately withheld what they were going to do from the public because they knew it would enrage and betray their own base.

And this differs from the policy of US politicians how? And the rest of Europe how?

The exact same thing is happening here. But is there anyone in OUR media or government who will admit it, like it is at least being admitted there?

..bringing in hundreds of thousands to plug labour market gaps..

What gaps? There has been an unemployment problem in Britain for decades. That excuse is floating in the punch bowl..

I think this is the first time an entire civilization, in fact a whole race, has committed suicide, although it’s really being murdered by a traitorous minority in its midst.

I think they foresee themselves as the future's permanent ruling class. In their future, representatives of the old order will kept in zoos or freak shows in order to be scapegoats of the "bad old days." The multi-cultural majority-minority order will be ever grateful to white leftists, and the oceans shall turn to lemonade.

When you see the bumper sticker "diversity is our strength," mentally add "...and not yours."

That's where I think the anti-American left has it all wrong. All these new groups have their own traditions and beliefs, and if their numbers become large enough, they won't have much use for the old American left.

On time will tell.
