Like countless others before me, who were born American but developed a love for British tradition, culture, and literature, I truly care about what happens not only in the US but in the UK as well. Over these last three years I traveled an average of four times a year to the UK for personal reasons. Each and every time I observed new inroads of decay and dutifully sounded the alarm to family and friends. England, the England that we know and love, is rapidly being destroyed from within by a combination of factors, some of which are planned, and others accidental. Let me say first and foremost that whatever formerly benign socialist engineering the UK might have had has turned virulent in the five years under Tony Blair and New Labour. F. A. Hayek, in his book, The Road To Serfdom, sounded the alarm as early as 1945 when he saw the direction England was headed. Hayek was at one point a socialist and he knew what was being planned. Instead of that jackboot on the face of humanity forever that Hayek theorized, Blair is making sure his incompetent socialist dictatorship has designer labels on the heels.
However, the effect is the same. Socialism is grinding down the populace on a daily basis. The destruction of the UK is so noticeable now because Blair and company actively despise the country they run. They are products of Oxford and Eton where anti-British sentiment by ivory tower professors is just as ingrained as the anti-Americanism of our college classes. Couple that anti-British self-righteousness with class snobbery and insatiable greed and youll get the current Prime Minister and his lawyer wife. The low-level Scottish thugs he surrounds himself with in his cabinet are actually wrecking historical revenge on England for past events hundreds of years old.

It really saddens me to even contemplate the changes undergone in the United Kingdom since the rise of socialism politicans and practices.

Perhaps. Either through complacence or oversight. It's not too late IMO for the Brits, but they have to act quickly.

Was there ever any feedback on the petition sent by the House of Lords to the Queen stating that their rights, and the rights of all Englishmen, were being infringed by edicts of the EU?

Not sure who this guy is, but he seems to have a remarkable handle on what's happening to the Western World.

Yeah right.
Good-bye Britain, or more fun, England.
Bollocks,
The English, Scots, Welsh, and Irish still have an identity, however much people on this board may dislike it.
As for America?
To: Jakarta ex-pat
Sure. Slice them up into smaller and smaller ethnic groups to make their elimination easier by removing national identity. I'm sure the socialists will try the same thing here with their multicultural crappola.

Britain is screwed because of your above observations.
However, I believe the BRITS will see the light.
It's "America" I worry about.

...preference over British culture, has run amok to the point where human sacrifice and cannibalism is now being practiced in LondonThis guy's credibility went out the window with this!
To: Seeking the truth
Read the article about 3 weeks ago about cannibalism and human sacrifice in London? Perhaps this guy keeps up with current events in the UK ...

I prefer to live in a society of Americans. Not hyphenated Americans.

Horrific article. If everything stated in the piece is true, the only alternative is violent revolution or a military coup (If there are enough loyal folks in the military who would actually use their weapons on Blair and Parliament). There appears to be no meaans of changing the course of things by peaceful political means. The Tories are utterly useless - evidently just another branch of the ruling elite. Do the Brits remaining there have the courage? Or will they march without a complaint into the re-education camps?
