Enoch Powell?
You should speak to User 203616, he was a big fan of Enoch Powell.
Originally posted by XanthosNZI approve the use of common sense which in this context would have led to a sensibly controlled immigration policy.
Do you oppose anti-discrimination laws?
This would have entailed letting in only those individuals who had qualifications of which we were in need, and in such numbers as could be assimilated into our society.
Common sense also suggests that if an immigrant started to incite mass murder he would be promptly deported. Sadly our politicians lacked common sense ,and we are now reaping the whirlwind of their folly.

Originally posted by PhilodorEnoch Powell's Rivers of Blood speech was almost completely about his opposing anti-discrimination laws. Do you or do you not agree with him in this regard?

Originally posted by XanthosNZThat's the problem with the world today-no interaction with our neighbors. I bet you are one of those people who have an iPod stuck to one ear and a cell phone stuck to the other, playing a video game on your blackberry or raspberry or blueberry, or whatever the hell the things are called, wandering blindly through the day while the world goes by...
The last people in the world I wish to interact with are the retards sitting next to me on a flight (or bus or train etc.).
Originally posted by SALADINUnfortunately yes, but had our governments excercised commonsense in controlling immigration, especially from such sources, very few such persons would now be resident in the UK and would have been absorbed into normal society.

If one is talking about the folly of indisciminately flooding one's country with aliens from backward countries, in such numbers that they cannot be assimilated, then clearly it is sensible to insist that we should excecise discrimination as to whom we admit.
The results of not excecising such discrimination are now painfully obvious . We have allowed, in effect. an alien 5th column to grow up in our midst.

Originally posted by PhilodorWe did control it, we took their country and its wealth and in return gave them all the right to a British passport. This is the consequence of empire, and you can trace it all the way back to Rome, the same trends and the same unrest.

Also, on the integration front, there is nothing new through out history of groups of imigrants or emigrants moving to one area in a new country and keeping their own cultures and traditions. Think of the English in Spain, all off to Malaga where everyone speaks English and you can have egg and chips every day of the week. Think Ausralians in England and think of Earls Court in London. You talk about making people learn the language and fit into the culture, well go to Duabi, Jakarta, or Lahore and see how many of the expats have respected local law, language, or custom. Why does evey city have a Chinatown, why Little Italy in New York?
Also with religion, do you think when the Irish and Italians moved in mass to America they adopted the protestant faith? Do British emigrants to Tuscany or Andalucia adopt the Catholic religion? If you lived in a non-christian country would you adopt the religious culture of that country? I wouldn't personally.
How does immigration actually affect you personally? I have never been disadvantaged in any way by immigration, all I see are hard working people who have the drive and motivation to move to a different country with a completely different culture and lanuage to try and make life better for their families. They work longer hours, in places we do not want to work, for wages we do not want to get out of bed for, in places we would generally not be seen dead. How do you think our economy would function without a constant flow of immigration.
I would suggest a bigger policy failure in the UK is what we do with our own white unmotivated, uneducated, violent underclass who just sponge of us than look for the scapegoat with the dark skin. I would happily swap two immigrants for one of those waste of spaces every day of the week.

"The central political issue addressed by the speech was not, however, immigration as such. It was the introduction by the then Labour Government of anti-discrimination legislation which would effectively criminalise the expression of racial prejudice in certain areas of British life—particularly housing. Powell found this legislation offensive and immoral."
PS. Chancre, I own an iPod. I have a cellphone which I barely use and that's it. I use my iPod to block out the sound of the stupid surrounding me on the bus.
Originally posted by PhilodorI believe that is called assimilation....something the PCers and multiculturalists cannot comprehend......nor tolerate.
