Immigration: A Plan To Alter The Nation's Soul ["Wholesale Destruction" of National Identity]

Immigration: A Plan To Alter The Nation's Soul The government's policy of mass immigration was intended to remodel the social fabric of the nation, says Janet Daley

By Janet Daley 13 Feb 2010

So now we know what Labour's immigration policy was really about. The "open door" was not simply held ajar in order to admit a fresh workforce that would help to fill gaps in the growing economy. Nor was it just a gesture of hospitality and goodwill to those who were fleeing from repressive or inhospitable regimes in order to seek a better life.

Both of those aims would have been credible – if controversial and not thought-through in all their consequences. And so would the longer-term view that dynamic, cosmopolitan societies are generally healthier and more productive than in-bred, isolated ones, or that immigrants who tend to be ambitious for themselves and their families could help to counter the passivity and defeatism that tend to be endemic in the British class system.

But as it turns out, the policy was motivated by something far more radical and fundamental than any of this. The full text of the draft policy paper composed in 2000 by a Home Office research unit – the gist of which had already been made public by a former Labour adviser – was released last week under Freedom of Information rules. Properly understood, it is political dynamite. What it states quite unequivocally was that mass immigration was being encouraged at least as much for "social objectives" as for economic ones.

Migration was intended specifically to alter the demographic and cultural pattern of the country: to produce by force majeure the changes in attitude that the Labour government saw itself as representing.

Janet Daley observes:

"Tony Blair's "forces of conservatism" speech; his improbable presentation of Britain as a "young country"; the advocacy of a multicultural society which would have to reassess its own history, replacing traditional pride with inherited guilt: all of this could be facilitated by a large influx of migrants whose presence in the population would require the wholesale deconstruction of the country's sense of its own identity."

The H1B Visas is one of the main tomahawks for destroying US identity coupled with chain migration and tribal politics of catering to illegals and sanctuary cities by the Democrats. We are in the process of, no make that, have, lost our national identity in the US.

I wonder if the open borders advocates in the U.S. have the same agenda?

How many immigrants are in the U.S. on H1B visas?

No need to wonder. In 2003 I listened to a speech by the CFO of a Chicago based multinational corporation. He spoke to the dramatic demographic shifts occurring in the US and strongly advocated open immigration as being good for business. In fact he looked forward to the day when whites were in the minority and a new unique culture based on multiculturalism would dominate American society. I looked at 2008 presidential campaign giving and noticed he gave the maximum individual contribution to Obama.

Business just wants cheap labor. So they work with that agenda in symbiosis.

Of course they do. Why else would they replace European migrants with people from the third world. It certainly isn’t because of the migrants’ job qualifications. The fact thay your rulers see fit to import people from Yemen and other hostile nations through your diversity lottery should tell you everything you need to know. Diversity is just a fancy word for less white, less European, and most importantly of all - less American...

It’s not just the radical left which supports multi-cultural political correctness. Many in the corporate community does, too.

NO advocate of unbridled immigration, from either party, can be trusted with the future of America.

The illegals must be rounded up and sent home.

I believe there is an annual cap. It’s fluctuated from 200,000 per year to 65,000 per year but it is a ploy to bring in families- have kids here, and then we have an endless line of chain migration.

They are stupid and shortsighted and will destroy their own long term future.

Who was it, so we can bust that company down to size and ship him and it to Mexico?
(Yes, I know most CFOs agree with him and they all need to be shipped to Mexico to pick jalopenas.)

Historically speaking what would the Nazi’s have done to a defeated England that is worse than what this report says the labor government has done. Would the native English population have been worse off with a Gernam victory, as it is now?

From my reading of WW II history. Germany in 1940 would have been satisfied with a demilitarized neutralized England so they could strike the Soviet union with there full force. They did not want a 2 front war.
There was no intention,need benefit or desire to occupy England any more than to occupy Vichy Southern France. There was certainly no intent, plan or desire to transfer millions of German civilians to England or to impose German culture and language on England.
I am not in any way saying a German victory would have been a positive thing.
My point is that England fought and sacrificed thousands of lives to preserve itself back then an now we have the Labor party inflicting an outcome on England that is arguably more damaging to the native population than what the German’s threatned.

And yet the laws remain un-enforced because of anchor babies and sanctuary cities. It’s time for the Tea Party to make federal defunding of cities that provide sanctuary a must and seek a test case on anchor babies to be appealed to the US SC. Further, compulsory education to illegals was the result of a 5/4 decision by the US Supreme Court. This decision was wrong and must be reversed.

"In fact he looked forward to the day when whites were in the minority..."

That a$$hole Bill Clinton said something very similar to this several years ago and it made me sick then as well. I wish he'd have 'the big one' already and we can be done with him.

No they destroy ours. They will remain ensconced in their haciendas Norte Americano. They covet the authority of the Mexican elite over their workers.

Much of the corporate community has been taken over by the radical left. I believe it is a purposeful takeover much like they took over academia and most of the media.
