It's no good people fleeing from the politically correct nightmare.
People must start to hit back at it by using the democratic process.

During WW2, people stood their ground and fought. Come on - let's see some bulldog fighting spirit!

FIGHT OR FLIGHT, THERE'S NO REAL GETTING AWAY

23.08.07, 12:33pm

These comments say it all. So what went wrong? Well, for a couple of decades or so we’ve allowed a leftie rabble substitute their Marxist idealist nonsense for what was a relatively stable and sane society. Through spitefully clever manipulation coupled with a manic obsession with a socialist idealism, they’ve infiltrated every strata of society helped by a rabidly biased left wing media. All mainstream political parties now fully embrace these warped predominantly Left wing ‘ideologies’ and are forever ducking and diving when they think they’ve been rumbled, only to emerge with much of the same when all the fuss dies down. At the end of the day, it’s always business as usual so why vote for them? The only political party that has shown real courage, of course, is the BNP, which all mainstream parties fear because it calls their bluff and exposes them for what they really are. It also holds up a mirror to our own laziness, weakness and guilt for allowing this lunacy to take over in the first place. The question is do we say good luck to those Brits who are leaving or condemn them for not staying behind and fighting this rottenness? Whatever the answer there’s no getting away from the fact that we’re all to blame.

RE: EXODUS AS RECORD 385,000 QUIT BRITAIN FOR BETTER LIFE

I first saw this item on the BBC breakfast news (the government’s Bullshit Broadcasting Company), and as usual they chose to put their distinct PC slant on the story and conveniently bypass the real reasons that UK citizens were leaving in such large numbers; only to be replaced by even greater numbers of non UK nationals. Unfortunately, this despicable trend of PC broadcasting has become endemic throughout our left wing media, and as a consequence contributes absolutely nothing to the real debate.

Personally, I have come to the conclusion that there is little hope for any of us; wherever we choose to live. Ultimately the technology to control us, which is being wheeled out at an alarming rate (without challenge), will allow whatever government in whatever country to make slaves of us all. The obvious need to address the overpopulation of the planet and lack of natural resources, will no doubt lead to drastic measures, and I would not be surprised to see the outbreak of another ‘mysterious’ (man made) and previously unknown diseases without any known cure (i.e. AIDS), which of course will conveniently help reduce the population without the need for a large scale war (cull) or direct government intervention. So whether you choose to emigrate or stay put the outcome will be exactly the same, the only difference will be a possible short term enhancement in your quality of life and the subsequent timing of your demise…I say god help us all!

GOVERNMENT TREACHERY

23.08.07, 11:50am


This infamous lot will go down in history as the only enemy within to ever defeat Britain.
They not only have no shame,but no honour.

However,we are to blame,because we accept
every rotten trick and indignity that is forced upon us. Yet we continue to endure the soft option, making Britain the laughing stock,and the dumping ground of Europe.

Whatever became of the fighting spirit that defeated the Nazis?

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO GREAT BRITAIN ?

23.08.07, 11:45am

Can someone please explain to me how the phrase so often banded around by left wing liberals that all this mass immigration enriches our society ? Also can someone please explain to me as to why this government is so hell bent on destroying the indiginoeus culture of these islands ? With the government now acccepting there is a something called 'White Flight' why are they are still determined to give amnesty to 450,000 illegals.

I was never asked or voted to live in a multicultural society, it was just thrust onto me. If I wanted to live in a foreign culture I would have emigrated Now I can no longer enjoy the culture I was born in to. Because we now have to dilute our culture to appease others who move here and do not accept our way of life. I am now told that if I object to what is happening to my culture I am a racist zealot! Laws are passed to stifle free speech so one cannot legally stand up for what one believes in.

I fear it is too late for our once fine proud country, even the British people no longer stand up for themselves, and seem to be brow beaten into submission all the time.

EXODUS QUITTING BRITAIN.

23.08.07, 9:37am

I would leave this country tomorrow if I had the finances to do so.
When the going get tough people will fly off to sunnier shores
leaving mainly the working classes to pick up the residue of
their decisions. I once coined a phrase which I believe to be true:
‘Middle-class morality is a working-class burden.’
Forget the past greatness of this country, your children will
be encouraged to do so by the bleating liberals in our society.
History? Forget it! Unless of course its about slavery or our
our wicked imperial past. What the liberals forget to tell you
is Spain, Holland, Portugal, Germany, France, all had empires and in
some cases (Spain: Inquisition, the sacking and destruction of central
America and south American cultures, France, Napoleon and so on.
To be proud of England is not allowed is smacks of racism.
Keep safe.

VOTE FOR CHANGE!

23.08.07, 9:17am

The sad reality is that each year we lose hundreds of thousands of good people to have them replaced by scroungers and people from cultures alien to our own.
This means that year on year it is becoming harder for us to put the brakes on because mainstream politicians are obsessed with courting the immigrant vote, obviously as it gets bigger so does their voice.
There is only one political party that has the will to change things and if they were to be elcted things could still be rescued, the problem is the entrenched voting habits of the majority of the population.
Those people who are jumping up and down in indignation have only themselves to blame for continuing to vote in mainstream politicians. The career politican who cares not a jot for the wishes of the ordinary man and who have combined to sell our nation down the river.
People have to make a choice because time is running out.

385,000 QUIT BRITAIN

23.08.07, 9:04am

There is no wonder because Britain is now full of foreign low life and their brats. The people we are loosing were decent tax payer's and they are being replaced by scrounging low life costing the country billions a year to house and give benefits to. This is the reality of left wing politics. Crime is getting out of hand and will rise until we are all forced out and then who will support these foreign scum and the thieving labour party. I have elderly parents otherwise I would leave this country as quick as possible.

LABOUR HAS GIVEN OUR COUNTRY AWAY

23.08.07, 9:00am

Words mostly fail me when I look at what Labour has done in the last 10 years. Our borders no longer exist and not only are we under threat from mass immigration but our own government openly discriminates against native Britons in favour of immigrants. It is illegal to speak out, political correctness has denied us the right to stand up for our culture and nation.

They are hell bent on a course of destruction and, with the help of most of the establishment and media, will succeed.

I moved to France 3 years ago. I will not be coming back. Most of my friends are seriously looking for a way out now. They see no future for themselves in old age or for their children.

I can't help feeling I will get a perverse pleasure at seeing the whole thing implode and look forward to all the hand wringing by the same people who created the mess.

TOO LITTLE TOO LATE

23.08.07, 8:54am

The rate of Exodus from the U K leave insufficient of us to fight the Good fight and are certainly losing the battle. SUCCESIVE GOVERNMENTS IN THE LAST 25 YEARS, especially the present incumbents have slowly but surely destroyed any remnants of this being the United Kingdom it once was. BLAIR years and now BROWN will go down in history AS THE FINAL DESTRUCTION OF THIS ONCE GREAT NATION AND DEMOCRACY sold out to the E U and Immigration leading to the exodus of true British Residents. Sad though the thought may be, this country will ultimately end up as another Iraq or Beirut with fighting in the streets as there will no longer be a democracy to defend.We allready have fighting and guns in the streets, hardly a day goes by without some major crime being reported, and that is only the beginning of ANARCHY. WHAT DO OUR LORDS AND MASTERS DO ---"N O T H I N G" --except bury their heads in the sand on the basis it has nothing to do with them. R I P--GREAT BRITAIN we knew you well
