I predict that the only councillor who will comment will be Ken, whose views on matters like these bear scant relation to Labour party policy anyway.

Not really been following this thread...oops!
For what it's worth, I agree with the sentiments. There is absolutely nothing racist about wanting a strong national identity, Scotland has it, Ireland has it, Wales has it....in England it's a bit of a sticky wicket sometimes due to some wonderfully PC thinking. For years we've had different communities forcibly rammed together and it hasn't always worked because of the one thing which people still fail to recognise - we're all different. It isn't a bad thing, I can't imagine anything worse than a world where everyone is the same, but people resist having things forced on them.
Naturally, it's a good opportunity for many people to cry 'racism' but I can't see the problem with the Prime Minister of Great Britain wanting to protect the country he is head of. Time will tell if it's just empty rhetoric but I can't criticise Mr Cameron for standing up and saying what he thinks.
I'm not going to disagree with something simply because it's from a non-Labour politician.
