Labor deliberately used immigration to change Britain

How many times have I said that the British left hates Britain and has been deliberately seeking to destroy it via large scale immigration? And how many times have I pointed out that the left’s claim that immigration was needed for Britain’s economy was a transparent ploy designed to cover their real motive which was cultural destruction? Now a speech writer for the Labor government has admitted it all. The frankness of the admission is surprising, but not the truth that is being admitted. See, for example, my numerous references to Tony Blair’s 1999 Jacobinist statement that his aim was to “sweep aside those forces of conservatism,” a phrase that clearly included historical Britain itself. Why would anyone imagine that Blair’s immigration policy was not one of his weapons—or rather his primary weapon—for sweeping aside historical Britain? Meanwhile, during all these years of the left’s engineered demolition of their country, what have British “conservatives” done to protest it or demand that it be stopped? NOTHING. At most, a tiny handful of conservative leaning columnists have periodically emitted little impotent bleeps and whines.

Fact: there is not a single man in all of British politics. Not one. There’s not even a single half man. Even the best of them are pathetic clowns tripping over themselves so as not to seem intolerant. Liberalism—the belief in openness and non-discrimination as the highest value of society—doesn’t just destroy a people’s cultural and national identity; it deprives them of their honor, their manhood, their honesty, their everything.

Labour let in migrants ‘to engineer multicultural UK’
24th October 2009

Huge increases in immigration over the past decade were a deliberate attempt to engineer a more multicultural Britain, a former Government adviser said yesterday.

Andrew Neather, a speechwriter who worked in Downing Street for Tony Blair and in the Home Office for Jack Straw and David Blunkett, said Labour’s relaxation of controls was a plan to ‘open up the UK to mass migration’.

As well as bringing in hundreds of thousands to plug labour market gaps, there was also a ‘driving political purpose’ behind immigration policy, he claimed.

Ministers hoped to change the country radically and ‘rub the Right’s nose in diversity’. But Mr Neather said senior Labour figures were reluctant to discuss the policy, fearing it would alienate its ‘core working-class vote’.

On Question Time, Mr Straw was repeatedly quizzed about whether Labour’s immigration policies had left the door open for the BNP.

Writing in the Evening Standard, Mr Neather revealed the ‘major shift’ in immigration policy came after the publication of a policy paper from the Performance and Innovation Unit, a Downing Street think tank based in the Cabinet Office.

The published version promoted the labour-market case for immigration but Mr Neather said unpublished versions contained additional reasons.

‘Earlier drafts I saw also included a driving political purpose: that mass immigration was the way that the Government was going to make the UK truly multicultural.

‘I remember coming away from some discussions with the clear sense that the policy was intended—even if this wasn’t its main purpose—to rub the Right’s nose in diversity and render their arguments out of date.’ The ‘deliberate policy’, from late 2000 until ‘at least February last year’, when the new points-based system was introduced, was to open up the UK to mass migration, he said.

Mr Neather defended the policy, saying mass immigration has ‘enriched’ Britain and made London a more attractive and cosmopolitan place.

Sir Andrew Green, chairman of the Migrationwatch think tank, said: ‘Now at least the truth is out, and it’s dynamite. Many have long suspected that mass immigration under Labour was not just a cock-up but a conspiracy. They were right.

‘This Government has admitted three million immigrants for cynical political reasons concealed by dodgy economic camouflage.’

The chairmen of the cross-party Group for Balanced Migration, MPs Frank Field and Nicholas Soames, said: ‘We welcome this statement which the whole country knows to be true.

‘It is the first beam of truth that has officially been shone on the immigration issue in Britain.’

As to the devastating news of Labour intentionally trying to displace its indigenous population and destroy her culture. I can’t believe that this has not been front page news in most Western media. To my knowledge Rush, Glenn Beck, Hannity or any other mainstream “Conservatives” have even mentioned it? I could be wrong.
