Can any Accy web Labour supporters justify this legacy
 
Seems the ethnic British will be a minority in 2066 ,
Special report: Will the white British population be in a minority in 2066? | Mail Online

seems Labour did a great job of looking after/protecting the nation state, something for your young folks to look forward to ....any elected Labour party member or supporter care to comment, justify or offer excuses.


Viva La Raza ;)

Good old Daily Mail. An article in keeping with playing to old fashioned prejudice. But as it says in the article:-

If you are British, it really does not matter what colour or race you are.

Most of the so-called "white" population have ancestors who immigrated into the UK from other parts of Europe.

And I'm not a Labour supporter.

.

Not really , but would have thought it would matter if the instant "new' population had no idea/comprehension/understanding about such things as the Magna Carta, Hereward the Wake , Bodecia , War of the Roses, all the stuff that was knocked into my generations head about what it was to be English , I'm sure Scottish and Welsh kids had similar stuff about their own national history taught to them, stuff which is absorbed/assimilated into the family psyche over more than one generation, now it seems all this stuff is 'verboten' and the "heros" are folks like Mandela and Ghandi .
Think the best example I can use are the Brits who emigrated to Australia/Canada/New Zealand in the 50s and 60s , the parents still had their British roots but the next generation are pure Oz/Canuk/Kiwi , this doesn't seem to be happening to the 'new' British.
hope that made sense ;)

So, does it really matter if a minority of people have white skin pigmentation at some point in the future? It doesn't bother me (not that I'll be around then anyway). As for the "new Britons" not being aware of their cultural heritage, you've been away too long, SJ! Ask your average British white kid about Hereward the Wake and the Wars of the Roses these days and you'll be met with a blank look!

Mention Hereward the Wake round here to kids and they'd think you were talking about somebody from Great Harwood:rolleyes:

Clear enough SJ. The reason it isn't happening in UK is due to the fact that the last Government & as it stands at present the New Government are still in the throes of Multiculturalism as opposed to "Proper" integration.

Unlike other Countries EU & Non EU, should you wish to settle there, you are at least expected to have a working understanding of their language, a means of support & not have everything translated for your benefit, simply put You CHOSE TO COME HERE, accept our ways or ship out. A natural & fair condition in my view.

However UK Politicoes, spineless as ever refuse to take this stand point & instead are bending over backwards to accommodate all & sundry & their wishes thereby allowing parallel communities to flourish & over ride the indigenous way of life . If they (migrants) are so hell bent on having things so wonderfully like their home Country, why then come to UK ? But if as they profess it is due to a deepseated Anglophile leaning, why then are they not prepared to embrace & accept our ways ? Not to much to ask surely ?

The net result, England ceases to be English & their "New Home" becomes like their old home ! Ergo, Quid pro quo ! And until the detractors & denialists get past puberty, the average "British Citizen" will continue to feel sorely abused & put upon by an ever more distant & elitist administrative class.

spot on dave infact rather than them learn our language in some schools they are teaching our kids to understand theirs or have their own segregated schools which if we tried would not be allowed:rolleyes:
