Labour wanted mass immigration to make UK more multicultural, says former adviser

Labour threw open Britain's borders to mass immigration to help socially engineer a "truly multicultural" country, a former Government adviser has revealed.

The huge increases in migrants over the last decade were partly due to a politically motivated attempt by ministers to radically change the country and "rub the Right's nose in diversity", according to Andrew Neather, a former adviser to Tony Blair, Jack Straw and David Blunkett.

He said Labour's relaxation of controls was a deliberate plan to "open up the UK to mass migration" but that ministers were nervous and reluctant to discuss such a move publicly for fear it would alienate its "core working class vote".

Yes but they do not want us to mix-up animals because of the disastrous results but it is OK with People!

The libdems, lead by the late senator swimmer, have done the same thing to this country. They’ve had a lot of republicrat support for leaving our southern border porous.

What they need is a good old a$$ whuppin’ followed by some tar and feathers and a ride on a rail.

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.

Really dumb. They live in Europe. A place in which one can literally visit multiple countries in a day, and they think it’s good and necessary to destabilize the demographics of their society. Liberals: Not so smart people thinking they are uniquely smart.

A multicultural society is a lot easier to exploit and control, if you're into exploiting and controlling!

It takes nerve to resist, some people will call you a racist!

Does it occur to anyone that throwing open the borders to Muslims in order to beef up Labor votes is tantamount to treason in that it risks the security of the crown for cheap election votes. Blair and his Labor croonies may have destroyed their nation in the long run. Bravo Tony...and next week, they want to make him the first president of Europe.

What is wrong with this picture?

[Frantzie]

If course they did. They destroyed the UK.

Where are the people who post here who hate the BNP? The BNP are the only party who point out the evils Labour and the other parties have inflicted on the UK.

At least the British people are being told who to thank.

Isolated pockets of foreigners do not equal multiculturalism. The steadfast refusal to assimilate into or even tolerate the society they've adopted is more accurately classified as an invasion. There are plenty of people who choose to leave the bad behind and try to make something better of course.

“The British people can be confident that immigration is under control.”

A sure sign the ministers are still intent on screwing Britons over.

I've watched, aghast in horror at Great Britain's immigration policy. They seem to be hell bent on suicide. The Labor's party position is nothing short of a suicide pact. It's born out of nothing but shear hatred for their own society. It cannot work and even Labor liberals KNOW it can't work and will lead to disaster.

And yet they persist. We have the same policy here in the United States. Except it's the liberals and Democrats who are prescribing the suicide policy.

I'm with you. I'm not a Brit but I'm a big supporter of the BNP and I see nothing wrong with the only people who want to preserve a civilized British Society.

Okay come at me all you anit-BNP folks. I'm locked and loaded.

Now they are screwed. I remember visiting in the 1971 and thought now at least I can communicate with the waiter, wrong, a Johnny 5 import.

The UK is ready for a political revolution. There's no Bill of Rights there....and when the Parliament votes to strip "asians" of residency...or votes halt the import of "cultural diversity"...it will be the law of the land.

As their economy continues to disintegrate, it won't be long before "white nationalism" becomes THE dominant force in politics.

[sinsofsolarempirefan]

Here I come. You support a guy who is on record for denying the Holocaust, joined a party that was once an openly Nazi-sympathising party that he has now tried to turn into something more palatable to the voters ala Blair and the Labour Party.

The BNP raises legitimate concerns, but he knows that simply espousing the Nazi beliefs he has a proven track record of believing in and expressing won’t win votes, because British people at heart are decent people who believe in fair play and are not racist loony tunes like him, but he knows which buttons to push to elicit their sympathy and he is doing it well. He’s certainly managed to win you over. I don’t know if you are actually a Nazi or just believe in what Nick Griffin says he believes in, but he and the BNP are wolves in sheep’s clothing. And if the average BNP voter was more aware of Nick Griffin and the BNP’s origins, I would wager that their popularity would crash....

[Scanian]

Exactly the plan the libtards have for the US. Declare amnesty for illegals and make them voters. That will “rub the right’s nose in it” alright.

[sinsofsolarempirefan]

There is a Bill of Rights (1689), it just isn’t taken that seriously any more, which is a shame, as apart from the outdated sectarianism of a few of the passages, it is a perfectly sound document.

As for the original article, its truly breathtaking, but the BNP isn’t the answer. No decent person believes in ethnocentric nationalism. Nationalism should be based on Civic lines, based on shared values and culture.
The complete destruction of the Labour Party is the answer to this, preferably to be replaced permanently as the main part of opposition by UKIP alternating in government with the Tories.....
