From 2009 onwards Griffin has been engaged in destroying his own party. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt; Did he do a deal at his race hate trial in 1998 to keep himself out of prison?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;In&amp;nbsp;1998 Nick Griffin, who at the time was&amp;nbsp;editor of &lt;i&gt;The Rune&lt;/i&gt; magazine and a member of the British National Party, was tried&amp;nbsp;for incitement to commit racial hatred under section 19 of the Public Order Act 1986. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;The subject of the prosecution was issue 12 of &lt;i&gt;The Rune&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div id="content" sizcache="1" sizset="63"&gt;&lt;div id="article-wrapper" sizcache="0" sizset="68"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div sizcache="0" sizset="69"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Griffin was given a 9 month prison sentence suspended for 2 years after being convicted of "publishing or distributing racially ­inflammatory written material." The following year he was elected leader of the BNP.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The&amp;nbsp;magazine article, edited by Griffin,&amp;nbsp;dismissed the Holocaust as the Holohoax. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;An article entitled"Inconvenient facts", claimed that Jews held positionsin the media and Hollywood vastly disproportionate to their numbers. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The prosecutingcounsel, Sasha Wass, argued that this article&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;would lead to resentment against Jews.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;At the trial Griffin sacked his legal team and, conducted his own defence, attempting to justify the material he had published.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;No transcript of the hearing was made and the only records about the case are held by the Crown Prosecution Service.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;In&amp;nbsp;October 2009, the Guardian newspaper sent a Freedom of Information request to the CPS to obtain the court records&amp;nbsp;of the trial. The request was blocked by the CPS on the grounds that releasing the information would breach Griffin's data protection rights. This seemed somewhat strange as&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;the trial was heard in open court.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;In October 2009, when the FOI request was made, the BNP were doing very well. A few months earlier the BNP had gained its first MEPs when Griffin and Andrew Brons were elected to the European Parliament. The BNP were the official opposition on Barking &amp;amp; Dagenham Council at that time with 12 elected councillors. They had over 60 elected councillors across Britain and the year before, in 2008, Richard Barnbrook had been elected to the GLA. The BNP were on a roll, they really were Britain's fastest growing political party. You might have thought the CPS would be more than willing to hand over the court documents to a left leaning newspaper like the Guardian so that it could use them to damage the BNP's future prospects. Apparently not.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The Guardian appealed the decision not to release the documents and 4 months later the CPS again refused to release the requested information.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2010/jan/22/nick-griffin-race-trial-details"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;CPS refuses to release details of Nick Griffin's Race Hate Trial&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Determined not to give up, the Guardian&amp;nbsp;then lodged a ­complaint with the Information ­Commissioner's Office, which is responsible for final ­decisions on FOI requests.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Did Griffin do a deal with the state in return for a suspended sentence? Halfway through the trial he sacked his legal team and conducted his own defence. This was despite all the odds being stacked against him (the jury was mixed race, including two Asian women and a woman of Chinese extraction).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Would he have done that if he hadn't known in advance that he was going to get off? The following year, Griffin became BNP leader and the party has now been well and truly wrecked.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div sizcache="0" sizset="68"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The refusal of the CPS to release the documents due to 'privacy' concerns under the Data Protection Act is ludicrous.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;This was a public case in an open court involving a politician on trial for his opinions published in a magazine sold to the public.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The idea that any of that information was 'private' is laughable. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Therefore the issue is this - why&amp;nbsp;did the CPS refuse to release the documents?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;One reason might be&amp;nbsp;that a deal had been brokered between the CPS and Griffin which meant the judge had been informed of the deal and this would be reflected in his sentence. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;That information would have to be released by the CPS if it was recorded.

Did the State lean on him in 2009 to repay his debt for his spared prison sentence at his race hate trial in 1998? Have the CPS now decided to release Griffin's court records because he is no longer any use to them?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: purple;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;The hopes of millions of people were riding on the BNP. Thanks to Griffin, it's now a poisoned chalice with £850,000 worth of debts. When he loses his seat at the EU in 2014 the BNP will become his only source of income. There is no way he will ever step down as leader. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: purple;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;The BNP is dead in the water, anybody who thinks otherwise is deluding themselves.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: purple;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h1&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1345576064847731660-2302466585643825278?l=southendpatriot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/2302466585643825278'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/2302466585643825278'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/2012/02/is-griffin-working-for-state-from-about.html' title=''/><author><name>Victor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01084637423160644775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xLBPJVp-2Ro/TzvL70xsGCI/AAAAAAAAC9g/HhDie4MHR6k/s72-c/BNP-leader-Nick-Griffin-001.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345576064847731660.post-3422340984389472418</id><published>2012-02-15T06:58:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2012-02-16T09:58:45.356-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0b5394; font-size: x-large;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;England doesn't owe the Third World a living; the phenomenon of white guilt&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jMzjYeDGWi4/TxWgn44FETI/AAAAAAAAC54/vIxZOdX8hzU/s1600/cs-englishborn-big+less+grey.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jMzjYeDGWi4/TxWgn44FETI/AAAAAAAAC54/vIxZOdX8hzU/s200/cs-englishborn-big+less+grey.png" width="150" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;White Guilt defined&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The result of a wide spread racist propaganda campaign launched against the English by numerous leftist groups, wet liberal politicians of all political parties and Marxist teachers in Britain's schools. It is also being encouraged by various media outlets especially the BBC. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The campaign goals are to diminish any sense of pride in being English. To encourage the English to feel that they should be self-sacrificing towards non-whites and should spend the rest of their lives making atonement. History is being re-written so that white school children are forced to ignore the accomplishments and great achievements of the white race and its contributions to mankind, while instead being fed "politically correct" exaggerations of so-called black accomplishment and encouraged to celebrate black culture while neglecting their own. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The propaganda should be seen for what it is. However because of constant brainwashing, many still hold onto white guilt because it was the way they were taught in school and don't realize it is the result of a propaganda campaign. Those on a white guilt trip have lost the ability to think for themselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;The English are being made to feel guilty about colonialism&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Background&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the beginning of the Twentieth Century Britain was the most powerful nation on earth.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The country in which the Industrial Revolution had begun had become the Workshop of the World. British merchant ships carried the products of British industry to the four corners of the earth. British engineers built roads and railways from China to Peru.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;On a small uninhabited island off the coast of Malaysia the East India Company created the great port and base of Singapore from jungle and swamp. Hong Kong, ceded to Britain in 1841, became a crown colony and the outlet through which a third of all China's exports passed. Gunboats of the Royal Navy, operating from Hong Kong, singapore and other Far Eastern ports cleared the sea of pirates, a centuries old scourge which, since decolonisation has reappeared in a far more menacing form&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;But these are small examples for in 1900 Britain ruled the vastness of Canada, Newfoundland, the West Indies and British Guiana in the Americas: Sierre Leone, Nigeria, Egypt and the Sudan, South Africa and Rhodesia; India, Burma, the Malay States and Sarawak; Australia, New Zealand and Papua - a fifth of the world's surface and a quarter of its people. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;19th Century Slogan &lt;span style="color: #000099;"&gt;"The sun never sets on the British empire."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #000099;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Tj90gIbJRwY/TxWnAPmMgWI/AAAAAAAAC6A/t6BXVkdv6zg/s1600/Brit1914.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Tj90gIbJRwY/TxWnAPmMgWI/AAAAAAAAC6A/t6BXVkdv6zg/s1600/Brit1914.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reality of colonialism&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The inhabitants of more than 60 colonies who prior to British rule had known only tribal warfare, bloody massacres - often at the hands of their own chiefs - famine and disease, enjoyed for the first time efficient and benevolent government by the most devoted and corruption free colonial administrators in all history.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;British officials built roads, railways, ports, dams, hospitals and clinics; established settled agricultural communities and taught the raising of rubber, coffee, tobacco and other cash crops; they fixed tribal boundaries; provided schools and free education; created police forces, replacing the arbitrary judgements of tribal chiefs with an impartial judicial system. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;If we did a balance sheet comparing reasons for white guilt and white pride, we would discover that 'whites' have far more to be proud of than to be guilty of.

By 2006 many of them were moving into Barking and Dagenham.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;That was when everything changed. The BNP stood 13 candidates in the Barking and Dagenham council elections of 2006 and 12 of them were elected.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;It's been said that if the BNP had stood a full slate of 51 candidates in that election, enough of them would have been elected for the BNP to take control of the council.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;When all the seats came up for re-election in 2010, the BNP lost them all. Between 2006 and 2010, when the BNP were the official opposition on the council, Labour encouraged vast numbers of immigrants from other London boroughs to move into B&amp;amp;D. This was known as the "Africans for Essex" initiative.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;This was to ensure that when the 2010 elections arrived, there would be a sufficiently large immigrant vote to stop the BNP from gaining control of the council.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The people of Barking and Dagenham only voted BNP in the first place because they objected to the large number of immigrants moving into their borough.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Rather than get to grips with immigration, the Labour Council did the opposite. Between 2006 and 2010 they stabbed their own supporters in the back by swamping the borough with even more Third World migrants to keep themselves in power. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;As a result, the Borough of Barking and Dagenham is now suffering from an immigrant baby boom and B&amp;amp;D's primary schools are in crisis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ripple Primary School in Barking, East London&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-R8hVTNAMzXA/Ty6_9tSTTmI/AAAAAAAAC9I/6QxnLDhXTR8/s1600/The-number-of-primary-sch-007.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="384" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-R8hVTNAMzXA/Ty6_9tSTTmI/AAAAAAAAC9I/6QxnLDhXTR8/s640/The-number-of-primary-sch-007.jpg" width="640" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Such is the demand for primary school places that the council have plans to  convert an empty Woolworths store into a classroom and are looking at leasing an empty MFI building.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;It is also looking at "split shift sessions", where schools would take one group of pupils from 8am until 2pm and then a second from 2pm until 7pm. The shifts would double the capacity although the council concedes parents would have great difficulty accomodating the shift patterns.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rocky Gill, Barking and Dagenham council's cabinet member for finance and education, said "detailed plans" for shifts were being drawn up. "In two years' time we will have expanded all our primary schools. So we're going to have no choice but to move into split shift education at both primary and secondary level."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Ripple primary school in Barking had 4.5 applications per place last year. The school has already expanded into a nearby council-owned office site. By 2015 it expects to have 1,200 pupils, making it one of the biggest primaries in the country.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/2012/feb/03/baby-boom-schools-breaking-point"&gt;Reference, The Guardian&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The increase in the number of Black African children in B&amp;amp;D has been the most significant ethnic shift in recent years. Five of the top twelve languages in the borough are of African origin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So how do teachers cope with all these foreign children who speak very little English? They communicate with their pupils by using hand gestures, drawing pictures and by having translators in the classroom at great public expense.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;While all this is going on, our own children's education takes a back seat.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to teaching unions, £30,000 per year is needed for each non-English speaking pupil. Hundreds of thousands of qualified British teachers have left the teaching profession in disgust. Those that remain are demoralised, demotivated or left-wing fanatics who shouldn't be allowed anywhere near our kids.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since no Parliament can bind its successor, both Labour and the Tories are equally to blame for the sorry mess this country is now in.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks to them, English children have no future in their own country. Our children have been betrayed by Labour, the Tories and the Liberal Democrats.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No person of sound mind would continue to vote for establishment politicians at election time. The combination of massive immigration and radical multiculturalism is a recipe for our own demise.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1345576064847731660-4734382208376112315?l=southendpatriot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/4734382208376112315'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/4734382208376112315'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/2012/02/labours-legacy-to-people-of-barking-and.html' title=''/><author><name>Victor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01084637423160644775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-psv9bHWi0So/Ty_po22jhAI/AAAAAAAAC9Q/neXmAoDfO_s/s72-c/englishborn.png' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345576064847731660.post-5927353015802299672</id><published>2012-02-05T03:46:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2012-02-05T05:40:45.629-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Muslims Praying On The Streets Of London&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-iGNiIP1upko/Ty5Wsbi_ETI/AAAAAAAAC84/3cF8yP9WHaA/s1600/Praying+in+a+London+street.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-iGNiIP1upko/Ty5Wsbi_ETI/AAAAAAAAC84/3cF8yP9WHaA/s1600/Praying+in+a+London+street.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 1.2em;"&gt;These Bangladeshi Muslims, are praying on the streets in the area around the Brune Street Mosque in Spitalfields, East London.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 1.2em;"&gt;If Christians were to pray on the streets, would they be moved on or charged with obstruction?

He bought Beau Trading LLP, a bankrupt company with alleged links to the BNP, in 2009.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;In the court documents, Mr Greville claims to have discovered the firm was a sham and used as a vehicle to defraud the taxman, relying on "kickbacks" to members of the BNP.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Beau Trading supplied Mr Avery and Ms Colgate as temps to Mr Barnbrook, who was kicked out of the party in 2010 but remains an Assembly member.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;In the court documents, Mr Greville claims to have uncovered "evidence which proves...Beau Trading LLP acted as a source of funding for at least three top members of the British National Party at the expense of the Greater London Authority". According to his witness statement, Mr Greville has invoices and bank statements that show Mr Barnbrook and Ms Colgate received commissions on Mr Avery's payments by the GLA, which was being double-billed by so-called "phoenix" companies that did not exist. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Mr Greville's statement said: "It is quite evident that it was also agreed between all parties that 'kickbacks' on the Greater London Authority contracts...would be paid to Mr Barnbrook and Ms Colgate."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Mr Greville is suing a finance company that brokered his purchase of Beau Trading, for £197,000. Summing up, he said he had uncovered a "long-term criminal enterprise by four companies which were all under the control of the same people, and all operated from the same addresses using the same telephone and fax numbers.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;"With full knowledge and participation of...high-ranking members of the BNP, these 'phoenix' companies ...stole nearly £1million from the Revenue and hundreds of small creditors over an 18-month period while defrauding the GLA and making corrupt payments to their staff."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Mr Barnbrook said: "I find all the allegations ludicrous in the extreme. None of the accusations can be substantiated. This is an issue that has arisen between two parties in a claim and counter-claim within a legal dispute. None of this has anything to do with myself or Anthony Avery." Ms Colgate said the allegations were "ludicrous and can all be proven to be so. This is obviously a failed 'businessman's' attempt to recoup his investment."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1345576064847731660-3200055592067140257?l=southendpatriot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/feeds/3200055592067140257/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1345576064847731660&amp;postID=3200055592067140257' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/3200055592067140257'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/3200055592067140257'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/2012/01/richard-barnbrook-denies-any-wrongdoing.html' title=''/><author><name>Victor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01084637423160644775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-3yceYaWep4g/TyfQ4nOTfOI/AAAAAAAAC8o/e9ixfqSCR6w/s72-c/Richard-Barnbrook415.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345576064847731660.post-3426270624848832733</id><published>2012-01-25T23:48:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-26T02:44:00.997-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-large;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-large;"&gt;The Chickens Have Come Home To Roost For The People Of Rochford &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #990000;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;"England's housing crisis has been caused by mass immigration.

As we all know to England's cost, the Human Rights Act remains very much in force and is abused daily by foreign criminals to avoid deportation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Throughout the 2010 General Election campaign, David Cameron repeatedly stated that his party had absolutely no plans to raise VAT. Six months later, the Tories increased VAT from 17.5% to 20%.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* David Cameron's promise to reduce immigration to tens of thousands lies in tatters. It has been revealed that the number of immigrants coming to Britain in 2010 totalled 575,000, an increase of 21% over 2009.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #0b5394;

&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;We have been blocked from having a vote on this in Parliament, and all the Conservatives are proposing is a limited referendum on the Lisbon Treaty.&lt;/i&gt; &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;However, the&amp;nbsp;public back our position by a margin of 2:1: twice as many people think a referendum should be on whether we stay in Europe or not rather than only on the Lisbon Treaty.&lt;/i&gt; &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;We want that real referendum because if Britain is to stride forward confidently into the 21st century and tackle global issues like climate change and terrorism, we need to decide once and for all whether our future lies within the European Union, or outside it.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-URMPdxOPQRc/Tq5Hw0PNfVI/AAAAAAAACrE/ae7GFYt2LBY/s1600/Lib+DEm+Referendum.jpg" style="clear: left;

This became the “United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland” in 1927.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A &lt;b&gt;Yes&lt;/b&gt; vote to the Scottish Independence Referendum in 2014, would end the Kingdom of Great Britain, formed in 1707 between England and Scotland&lt;b&gt;.&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;It is the “United Kingdom of Great Britain &amp;amp; Northern Ireland” that joined the European Economic Community in 1973 not England.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Therefore &lt;b&gt;if&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;Scotland votes to become an independent nation&lt;/b&gt;, this brings to an end the Kingdom of Great Britain, and also the United Kingdom, hence this takes the UK (including England) &lt;b&gt;out of the European Union&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Writing on his blog, John Redwood, the Euro-sceptic Conservative MP for Wokingham said - &lt;b&gt;"The dream ticket for a modern English nationalist is a decision by Scotland to leave the UK, followed by the ending of membership of the EU because the member, the UK, no longer exists."&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Given the amount of anti-EU sentiment there is in this country, it is unlikely that an English Prime Minister would have enough support to re-negotiate England joining the EU. Another factor is that all new EU members have to accept the Euro as their currency. That in itself would be unacceptable to the majority of people in this country.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Other implications&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Labour currently has 41 Scottish MPs, the Tories only have 1. This means that if Scotland was to gain independence then the Labour Party would lose a large chunk of its support. This makes it very unlikely that Labour could ever again win a General&amp;nbsp;Election or at least it would make it extremely hard for them to do so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When Tony Blair allowed the Scots a referendum on devolution in 1997, he could not have foreseen that less than 20 years later, it could lead to the loss of 41 Labour MPs and confine Labour to the political wilderness. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;On that basis alone Scottish independence must be a very attractive proposition for the Tories. It might also appeal to many English Nationalists as well considering it was Labour, (lead by the Scottish-born Prime Minister Tony Blair and his Scottish successor Gordon Brown), whose open border policy swamped this country with millions of unwanted Third World immigrants.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If Scotland chooses independence, perhaps all the millions of immigrants and their offspring who were let in by Tony Blair and Gordon Brown, should be given Scottish passports. After all, those immigrants are no more English than they are Scottish and it was a Scottish-born PM and his Scottish successor who let them all in.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;No Vote for the English&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;England makes up 82% of the UK so surely the English should be allowed to vote in any referendum to break up the UK. Cameron says only the Scots will be allowed to vote. Latest opinion polls show that 52% of the English want independence from Scotland.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Once again English people are treated as second class citizens. We are not allowed a view on whether we should be in the EU and now, apparently, we are not entitled to a voice on Scottish independence. This gives the Scots a higher electoral value than the English and therefore discriminates against the English.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;For too long England has been shafted by Scottish MPs. It was because of labour's Scottish MPs that English students have to pay University tuition fees of up to £9,000 p.a. while Scottish students go to University free of charge. Without the support of the Scottish MPs, Tony Blair could never have got the legislation through Parliament.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;English people also pay for prescription charges, hospital parking, old age care, road tolls and so on which the Scottish people do not.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;England is the only nation in the UK which has never had a constitutional vote on its future, whereas, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have each had two.

It is reproduced below:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is at issue is a necessity to ensure the proper level of representation of our nations people in the legislative bodies of their own homelands. It's important to point out that the situations in our countries are not absolutely analogous, since English people already have a party - The English Democrats - which is committed to formation of a developed English parliament and which has all necessary resources to represent the interests of English people in such legislative body.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whereas, we, in Russia, due to the complexity of Russian politics, don't so far have a registered party which will protect the Russian identity and serve the interests of native people. Nevertheless, we are going to achieve our goal, whatever it takes! Russian people will have their own party which will be represented in the Parliament, and we are sure that support and experience of the English Democrats will contribute a lot to the accomplishment of this noble mission.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Both the English Democrats and the Russky Obraz movement are committed to serve the people of our countries and protect their great cultures and heritage. It's also essential that we preserve our national environment for future generations and we will be working hard towards those objectives.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are determined to end political correctness and stop the flow of illegal immigrants to our countries – the phenomenon which has created dangerous criminal and&amp;nbsp;social problems.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are aware that our Causes are not easy ones, but our firmness and consistency will become an unquestionable guarantee of success. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="i10ns"&gt;&lt;div class="i10n-end" style="width: 310px;"&gt;&lt;a class="lightbox-processed" href="http://rus-obraz.net/en/sites/rus-obraz.net/files/imagecache/big/i10n/1227/4122.jpg" rel="lightbox[1234][Robin Tilbrook meets Russian Nationalists ]" title="Robin Tilbrook meets Russian Nationalists "&gt;&lt;img alt="Robin Tilbrook meets Russian Nationalists " src="http://rus-obraz.net/en/sites/rus-obraz.net/files/imagecache/normal/i10n/1227/4122.jpg" title="Robin Tilbrook meets Russian Nationalists " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="i10n-end" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; width: 310px;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="i10n-end" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; width: 310px;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.voteenglish.org/the-english-democrats-democratics-latest-news-headlines/399-robin-tilbrook-meets-russian-nationalists.html"&gt;The English Democrats site&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1345576064847731660-7270049221470875016?l=southendpatriot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/feeds/7270049221470875016/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1345576064847731660&amp;postID=7270049221470875016' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/7270049221470875016'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/7270049221470875016'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/2012/01/robin-tilbrook-meets-russian.html' title=''/><author><name>Victor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01084637423160644775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XlGtOwVLqqA/Twqwcj0zntI/AAAAAAAAC4o/tqxWdLBB0s8/s72-c/EDP+Photos+056.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345576064847731660.post-8523747999356426537</id><published>2012-01-04T02:56:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-05T02:41:49.041-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;b style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Do I Scream Alone?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By Frank Ellis&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vwP1n6FwttY/TwVEyOe0YvI/AAAAAAAAC4g/9I7_rV8B4jk/s1600/BlackCloudMoon7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="298" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vwP1n6FwttY/TwVEyOe0YvI/AAAAAAAAC4g/9I7_rV8B4jk/s400/BlackCloudMoon7.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Do Sufficient numbers of our English people fully grasp the terrible damage inflicted on Mother England by mass immigration legal or illegal and the vicious, anti-white racist cult of multiculturalism? Will we, as a people, find the will to act to defend ourselves from this invasion and the sickness within or will we as a people just perish in shame?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Does a nation deserve to survive if it will not take the necessary steps for its own survival? What is it about a people that were so resolute and determined to resist Hitler in the summer of the Spitfire and Hurricane yet have allowed themselves to be overrun by aliens from without and traitors from within?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;There used to be men and women of honour, moral and intellectual courage in the Mother of Parliaments. What do we have now? Our political class are parasites and Quislings who have betrayed England who see no point in protecting and nurturing that which has been created and forged over the centuries. Our politicians do not serve England: they serve those who hate us and would enslave us.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;My English heart beats faster, more urgently when I recall Nelson’s words before Trafalgar or Churchill’s as we bore the brunt of the Luftwaffe. Yet when I see what is happening to England I am cast into a pit of despair and loneliness. Yet in this despair and loneliness I am conscious that there is something greater than I; that England, my land, my people, my history, the shame and the glory must be defended from her violators. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The land of my birth is not a brothel for the world. She is my holy Mother. On a cold, wind-swept Yorkshire moor or in a soft Kentish meadow on a summer’s day I feel her love for me, her strength. I crave her love. I cannot live without it. I cannot bear to see her mocked, derided and treated like a whore. And through the trees and leaves, in the singing of the trout stream and in the silent frost of winter she calls out to me, her wayward son, still the little English boy, with a message for England’s men and women: “Do not abandon me to whoredom dishonour and slavery. Remember you are come of a great people. The sternest tests are still before you.

Two men, Gary Dobson and Davis Norris, have been found guilty of the murder and we should be glad that they have at last got their just deserts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Nevertheless, 18 years of having this case shoved down the nation’s throats for political reasons would be enough to make any reasonable person heartily sick of the name ‘Stephen Lawrence’. The BBC devoted almost its entire early evening news and the London Area News that followed to this case, reporting it just as you would expect a Culturally Marxist organisation to report it, relishing the way, it claimed, it has transformed the police and the country.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Grounds for Appeal&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It should be noted following this latest verdict that given the avalanche of adverse publicity that the ‘guilty ‘ pair got before the trial, it would have been remarkable if they had been acquitted. The Daily Mail actually went so far as &lt;a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2079782/Stephen-Lawrence-trial-Gary-Dobson-David-Norris-guilty-murder.html" target="_blank"&gt;to name Gary Dobson and Davis Norris&lt;/a&gt; February 14, 1997.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This fact will no doubt figure in any appeal that the two men might make in the future against the verdict on the grounds of the impossibility of a fair trial and might very well be enough to see them acquitted. Such circumstances have certainly been effective in other cases.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;This Case was pursued for political Reasons, not for the Sake of Justice&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All that said, this case has been pursued in the way it has been, not out of any particular love of justice, but because,as we know very well, it was seized on from the first by enemies of this country as a means of attacking the Metropolitan Police and by extension the native British. The Metropolitan Police, the Macpherson Report found without a shred of evidence, was ‘institutionally racist’. Such was its uncontrolled bias that it actually went so far as to recommend that ‘racist’ remarks in private should be criminalised. Just about every home outside Camden, St John’s Wood, Islington, Hampstead and suchlike places would have become a crime scene!!! Unbelievable –if one is unaware of the the witch –hunt atmosphere about ‘racism’ whipped up by the Cultural Marxists, that is.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Jack Straw – A Slimy Enemy of Britain and of the British&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Home Secretary at the time of the Macpherson Report, Jack Straw, grabbed with both hands the opportunity it presented to oppress the British peoples, primarily by extending the Race Relations Act to the whole of the public sector, including the police. Here is what the columnist Simon Heffer had to say about how &lt;a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/comment/columnists/simonheffer/6922127/Hypocrite-Jack-Straws-role-in-destroying-the-police.html" target="_blank"&gt;Straw was instrumental in demoralising&lt;/a&gt; the police in the Daily Telegraph:-&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;‘&lt;i&gt;It was in Mr Straw's four years as home secretary from 1997 to 2001 that the cancerous attitudes that have benighted our police really set in – and they were led from the Home Office. The police ceased to be a force and became a service. They ceased to be a crime-fighting operation and became instead an instrument for the imposition of political correctness. New Labour came in to power with a set of beliefs about minorities of all sorts, and sought to make the police the enforcers of that creed. The wheels fell off at that point….&lt;/i&gt;’&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is what the BBC and the rest of the Cultural Marxist media are celebrating with the verdict in this case and all that has gone before: The smearing of the Metropolitan Police and of all Police, their emasculation as genuine Police Forces and the trampling underfoot of the British people .&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If one got all of one’s news from the BBC and the rest of the broadcast media, one would never realise that most racial attacks are by ethnic minorities on white people, not the other way around. But when you have got a nation to destroy, who cares about that?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1345576064847731660-7365148947671606189?l=southendpatriot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/feeds/7365148947671606189/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1345576064847731660&amp;postID=7365148947671606189' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/7365148947671606189'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/7365148947671606189'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/2012/01/stephen-lawrence-arent-you-sick-of-him.html' title=''/><author><name>Victor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01084637423160644775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345576064847731660.post-4350147636089734029</id><published>2012-01-03T23:21:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-04T01:16:15.231-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Disposable Double Jeopardy&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;I’ve noticed that in the UK someone has finally been &lt;a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/crime/8974085/Stephen-Lawrence-killers-Gary-Dobson-and-David-Norris-found-guilty-18-years-after-racist-murder.html" target="_blank"&gt;convicted for the murder of Stephen Lawrence&lt;/a&gt;, some 18 years after the fact and after having already once been found not guilty. I don’t wish to defend the two men who’ve just been convicted – for all I know they did do it, and very conspicuously did not sue &lt;i&gt;The Daily Mail&lt;/i&gt; when that paper came right out and accused them of the murder &lt;a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2079782/Stephen-Lawrence-trial-Gary-Dobson-David-Norris-guilty-murder.html" target="_blank"&gt;on the front page&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;and challenged them to sue if it was wrong. This is one of those awkward situations where I think that someone who is probably, though not certainly, guilty has been convicted but I’m as uncomfortable as hell in the way it’s come about. In short an ancient legal protection was tossed away and then this was applied retrospectively in order to paper over the cracks of an inadequate investigation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The law of double jeopardy meant no one could be tried twice for the same crime but that legal principle was abolished in 2005 following a series of high profile campaigns. &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The Lawrence murder played a key part and Sir William Macpherson recommended the law be changed following his inquiry in to the case in 1999. &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Until 2005 there was no chance of ever bringing Dobson back to court as a suspect in the murder because he was acquitted, along with Neil Acourt and Luke Knight, following a private prosecution brought by Stephen’s parents in 1996. &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;However, that situation changed with the 2003 Criminal Justice Act 2003, which abolished the double jeopardy rule for serious crimes and which came in to effect two years later. &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Crucially, it was also retrospective meaning it did not matter whether an alleged offence had occurred before 2005.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Seriously, how can anyone be comfortable with the police getting another go when it’s believed the jury got it wrong the first time? How many people in the UK went apeshit over the EU’s practice of repeat referenda until it got the desired outcome? How many of those will now be nodding approval at the British criminal justice system doing more or less the same thing?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let’s look at a more mundane parallel. Let’s say you’d been done for speeding and decided to fight the ticket in court, and you discovered that the device the police caught you on was supposed to be calibrated daily but in fact they’d only been doing it once a week. As a result you’re found not guilty and sent on your way. Now imagine that the law is changed so that the speed device was now allowed to be calibrated once a month and that speeding motorists who’d been acquitted by a court once could be dragged back in again, except this time they wouldn’t have a leg to stand on. Ridiculous?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why? The law allowing the criminal justice system a second bite for murderers sets the precedent, and it’s naive to think that eventually there won’t be calls for it to be extended to those acquitted of kidnap or rape or drug dealing… and if those then why not robbery, burglary, assault, fraud, possession and even motoring offences? The principle has now been established that nobody may be tried twice for the same offence unless someone thinks it’s quite important, and that importance may be established retroactively if need be.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;And in case anyone thinks that I’m an unfeeling bastard who cares nothing for the death of Stephen Lawrence, or even that I’m a racist taking the side of the white guys, it’s not that at all. Like I said, I think they’re probably, though not certainly, guilty. But the steps taken to convict them of murder open up the possibility, slender though it might be at the moment, of anyone being tried again (and who knows, maybe again) if there’s enough belief that they’re guilty. Until now the police and Crown Prosecution Service have not had the luxury of being able to put defendants in the dock again and again until one jury gets the ‘right’ verdict, which is both to protect the innocent and discourage police and prosecutors from putting up with a sloppy investigation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;This will be a popular result and might even be a just one, but really it shouldn’t please anyone, not even those close to Stephen Lawrence and certainly not those who are &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/#%21/Old_Holborn/status/154226739533459456" target="_blank"&gt;already hoping&lt;/a&gt; to see more use of disposable double jeopardy. I’ll let Sir Thomas More have the final word and explain why.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;“What would you do? Cut a great road through the law to get after the Devil? … And when the last law was down, and the Devil turned round on you – where would you hide, Roper, the laws all being flat? This country is planted thick with laws from coast to coast, Man’s laws, not God’s, and if you cut them down — and you’re just the man to do it — do you really think you could stand upright in the winds that would blow then? Yes, I give the Devil benefit of law, for my own safety’s sake!”&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Reference&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: #9fc5e8;"&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4liberty.org.uk/2012/01/03/disposable-double-jeopardy/"&gt;Orphans of Liberty&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1345576064847731660-4350147636089734029?l=southendpatriot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/feeds/4350147636089734029/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1345576064847731660&amp;postID=4350147636089734029' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/4350147636089734029'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/4350147636089734029'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/2012/01/disposable-double-jeopardy-ive-noticed.html' title=''/><author><name>Victor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01084637423160644775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345576064847731660.post-4615659607274539888</id><published>2012-01-01T10:01:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-02T04:06:49.242-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The only way is Essex &lt;span style="color: black;

font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;When Edward Heath took Britain into the European Union in 1973, unscrupulous Tory politicians&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt; handed over Britain’s once proud fishing industry to Brussels on a plate. The Common Fisheries Policy devised by the EU, is responsible for the destruction ofBritain’s fishing industry, with the loss of thousands of jobs and billions of pounds in revenue. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;For example, Britain’sannual cod catch fell from 300,000 tonnes a year when Britain joined the EU in 1973 to a low of just 7,000 tonnes in 2007. In 1973 the industry employed about 23,000 fishermen. Today there are less than 12,000 fishermen left.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Background &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding: 0px;"&gt;Britain, as you would expect of an island nation, has a fishing heritage that goes back generations.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt; By 1970, the fishing industries of     England and Scotland were among the finest in the world, in     technology, efficiency, and quality of produce.&amp;nbsp; Britain was     producing over a million tons of fish a year, and was preparing to claim its     international right to the resources of a 200 mile Exclusive     Economic Zone (EEZ) around the British Isles. This was the new law of the sea agreed by the UN in 1973.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="JUSTIFY" style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0.05cm; margin-top: 0.05cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="JUSTIFY" style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0.05cm; margin-top: 0.05cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;In 1970, a rise in white     fish prices and a resurgence in herring fishing was boosting the     prosperity of fishermen and fishing ports. The country’s fishery     future looked secure. Then came Britain’s entry into the then     European Common Market in 1973, negotiated by Edward Heath.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="JUSTIFY" style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0.05cm; margin-top: 0.05cm;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Betrayal&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Hours before Britain was to be     admitted, the original six members drafted the notorious     addition to the &lt;i&gt;“Acquis Communautaire”.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;It obliged new     members to surrender the control of their waters to Europe, and     to agree to &lt;i&gt;“equal access to a common resource” &lt;/i&gt;as far as     fish was concerned.&amp;nbsp; All new applicants for membership would     have to accept the condition, and that has been the case ever since.&amp;nbsp;     Despite a stream of subsequent lies and deception that this was     not really the case, the government had sold the fishing     industry like a pawn to gain entry to Europe. The European     Commission then assumed the authority to delegate shares of the     fishery resource to member states.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="JUSTIFY" style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0.05cm; margin-top: 0.05cm;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Apart from Ireland,     and the existing European maritime states that had nothing to lose and     everything to gain, Britain was the only nation in the world to     give up that sovereign right to its exclusive 200 mile fishing zone, and     accept the principle of ‘equal access'     which was made a condition for all EU members.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="JUSTIFY" style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0.05cm; margin-top: 0.05cm;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Years later, Spain’s full entry     into the EU Common Fisheries Policy nearly doubled the size of the EU states fishing     fleets, and the later entry of the Baltic states increased the size still further.&amp;nbsp; The size of the English and Scottish fleets had to be     seriously reduced to accommodate the others.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="JUSTIFY" style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0.05cm; margin-top: 0.05cm;"&gt;&lt;div style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;What had taken British seamen and     merchants 300 years to develop, was systematically reduced and     destroyed by the EU Common Fisheries Policy in the 35 years from     1975 when measures started to be applied.&amp;nbsp; No other nation in     the history of the world has given up its fishing industry to     foreign interests like Britain has done.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;The Herring fleet set sail, Great Yarmouth 1930s&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Idk1Ju7gpv8/Tv65K49ox1I/AAAAAAAAC2o/Nn89jOUGi-A/s1600/gt+yarm%252C+herring+cropped.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="264" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Idk1Ju7gpv8/Tv65K49ox1I/AAAAAAAAC2o/Nn89jOUGi-A/s400/gt+yarm%252C+herring+cropped.jpg" width="450" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-size: small;"&gt;No state outside the EU has     surrendered its 200 mile exclusive fishing zone to another body.&amp;nbsp;     Today, the vessels that reap the benefits of the UK marine EEZ     are fleets from Spain, France, Denmark, Holland, and the new EU     member states of Poland, Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia. In     consequence, much of the fish purchased by British housewives,     though caught in British waters, are from Continental fishing     vessels.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The EU's Common Fisheries Policy imposes a regime of equal access for vessels from all member states in the EU's exclusive fishing zone, 200 nautical miles from its coastline.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;div style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: black;"&gt;Within this zone, member states have a 12-mile zone around their own coastlines within which their own fishing vessels have exclusive rights.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: black;"&gt;In other words, because Britain is a member of the EU our 200 mile exclusive fishing zone around the British Isles has been reduced to just 12 miles by Brussels bureaucrats. The North Sea, which once ranked amongstthe richest waters in the world was, before we joined the EU, Britain’snational fishing waters&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: small;"&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: small;"&gt;The EU common fisheries policy has created a situation where landlocked nations like Austria have a say in how many fish a seafaring nation like Britain are allowed to catch.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;The EU Quota System &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: black;"&gt;Each country in the EU is given a quota of how many tons of fish they are allowed to catch. Each fishing vessel is then handed an individual fishing quota for different types of fish based on scientific data on the health of fish stocks. This leads to millions of tons of fish being wasted every year. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: black;"&gt;A trawler, for example, may have been given a quota to land 10 tons of cod and 10 tons of haddock. A problem arises when one of those quotas is met but not the other. A trawler that has landed all the cod it is allowed to catch but only half of the haddock, will continue to fish in order to meet its haddock quota. This means any extra cod caught in pursuit of its haddock quota will have to be thrown back into the sea, dead. This damages fish stocks and wastes millions of tons of fish.

Over the next century, the legislation governing these notes was modified many times and numerous versions have been issued by the Treasury.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So why are we using debt-based Federal Reserve Notes today instead of debt-free United States Notes?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It seems rather stupid, doesn't it?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, that is what Thomas Edison thought too.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Thomas Edison was once quoted &lt;a href="http://query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?_r=3&amp;amp;res=9C04E0D7103EEE3ABC4E53DFB467838A639EDE" target="_blank" title="in the New York Times"&gt;in the New York Times&lt;/a&gt; as saying the following....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;That is to say, under the old way any time we wish to add to the national wealth we are compelled to add to the national debt.&lt;/i&gt; &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Now, that is what Henry Ford wants to prevent. He thinks it is stupid, and so do I, that for the loan of $30,000,000 of their own money the people of the United States should be compelled to pay $66,000,000 — that is what it amounts to, with interest. People who will not turn a shovelful of dirt nor contribute a pound of material will collect more money from the United States than will the people who supply the material and do the work. That is the terrible thing about interest. In all our great bond issues the interest is always greater than the principal. All of the great public works cost more than twice the actual cost, on that account. Under the present system of doing business we simply add 120 to 150 per cent, to the stated cost.&lt;/i&gt; &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;But here is the point: If our nation can issue a dollar bond, it can issue a dollar bill. The element that makes the bond good makes the bill good.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Our current debt-based monetary system was devised by greedy bankers that wanted to make huge profits by creating money out of thin air and lending it to the U.S. government at interest.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sadly, the vast majority of the American people have no idea how money is actually created in this nation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a previous article about &lt;a href="http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/debt-money-money-debt" title="money and debt"&gt;money and debt&lt;/a&gt;, I explained how more government debt is created whenever the U.S. government puts more money into circulation....&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;When the government wants more money, the U.S. government swaps U.S. Treasury bonds for "Federal Reserve notes", thus creating more government debt.&amp;nbsp; Usually the money isn't even printed up - most of the time it is just electronically credited to the government.&amp;nbsp; The Federal Reserve creates these "Federal Reserve notes" out of thin air.&amp;nbsp; These Federal Reserve notes are backed by nothing and have no intrinsic value of their own.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When each new Federal Reserve Note is created, the interest owed by the federal government on that new Federal Reserve Note is not also created at the same time.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So the amount of government debt that is created actually exceeds the amount of money that is created.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isn't that a stupid system?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The U.S. Constitution says that the federal government is the one that should actually be issuing our money.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In particular, according to &lt;a href="http://www.usconstitution.net/const.html#A1Sec1" target="_blank" title="Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution"&gt;Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution&lt;/a&gt;, it is the U.S. Congress that has been given the responsibility to "coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures".&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So why is a private central banking cartel issuing our money?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;As is the case with so many other issues, we desperately need to get back to the way the U.S. Constitution says that we should be doing things.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The debt-based Federal Reserve system is literally stealing the future from our children and our grandchildren.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Back in 1910, a couple years prior to the passage of the Federal Reserve Act, the national debt was only about &lt;a href="http://www.treasurydirect.gov/govt/reports/pd/histdebt/histdebt_histo3.htm" target="_blank" title="$2.6 billion"&gt;$2.6 billion&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A little over 100 years later, our national debt is now more than &lt;b&gt;5000 times&lt;/b&gt; larger.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So why don't we just admit that this system simply does not work?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Our current debt-based monetary system also requires very high personal income taxes to pay for it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In fact, it is no accident that the personal income tax was introduced at about the same time that the Federal Reserve system originally came into existence.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our children, our grandchildren and many generations after that are facing a lifetime of debt slavery because of us. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I have written about &lt;a href="http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/in-debt-up-to-our-eyeballs" title="previously"&gt;previously&lt;/a&gt;, if the federal government began right at this moment to repay the U.S. national debt at a rate of one dollar per second, it would take &lt;a href="http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/17-national-debt-statistics-which-prove-that-we-have-sold-our-children-and-grandchildren-into-perpetual-debt-slavery" target="_blank" title="over  440,000 years"&gt;over 440,000 years&lt;/a&gt; to pay off the national debt.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Neither the Republicans or the Democrats are proposing any solutions to this problem.&amp;nbsp; Rather, both parties are only trying to slow down the rate at which we are going into even more debt.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But the truth is that the federal government does not have to go into a single penny of additional debt.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How could this be? It is not too complicated.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If Congress took back the power over our currency and started issuing debt-free money a lot of our problems could be fixed.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;A basic plan would look something like this....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;#1)&lt;/b&gt; The U.S. Congress votes to take back all of the functions that it has delegated to the Federal Reserve and begins to issue debt-free United States Notes.&amp;nbsp; These United States Notes would have the exact same value as existing Federal Reserve Notes, and over time all existing Federal Reserve Notes would be taken out of circulation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;#2)&lt;/b&gt; The U.S. Congress &lt;a href="http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/14-reasons-why-we-should-nationalize-the-federal-reserve" title="nationalizes"&gt;nationalizes&lt;/a&gt; all debt held by the Federal Reserve.&amp;nbsp; That would instantly reduce the national debt by &lt;a href="http://www.ronpaul.com/2011-07-11/ron-paul-rescind-americas-ficticious-1-6-trillion-debt-to-the-federal-reserve/" target="_blank" title="1.6 trillion dollars"&gt;1.6 trillion dollars&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp; In fact, there are a few members of Congress that have already proposed this.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;#3)&lt;/b&gt; A Constitutional amendment is passed limiting future U.S. government deficits to a reasonable percentage of GDP.&amp;nbsp; Any future deficits would not be funded by borrowing.&amp;nbsp; Rather, future deficits would be funded by newly created United States Notes.&amp;nbsp; Therefore, the federal government would never again accumulate another penny of debt. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And it would be important to inject new money into the economy from time to time.&amp;nbsp; When existing money is destroyed or when the population grows it is important to inject a certain amount of new money into the system in order to avoid deflation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;#4)&lt;/b&gt; The existing national debt would be very slowly paid off with newly created United States Notes.&amp;nbsp; The U.S. government spent &lt;a href="http://www.treasurydirect.gov/govt/reports/ir/ir_expense.htm" target="_blank" title="over 413 billion dollars"&gt;over 454 billion dollars&lt;/a&gt; on interest on the national debt during fiscal year 2011, and over time this expense would go to zero.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the national debt is paid off slowly enough, it would not create too much inflation.&amp;nbsp; I believe that it could be paid off gradually over 50 years without shocking the economy too much. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are some that would object to any measure that would ever cause a small amount of inflation, but my contention is that we have created a $15 trillion dollar debt mess for future generations, and it would be absolutely criminal to pass that legacy on to them. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We created this mess, and it is our responsibility to clean it up.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;While there is certainly a danger that we would have a limited amount of inflation under a debt-free monetary system such as the one described above, the reality is that we are absolutely guaranteed inflation under the Federal Reserve system. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most Americans believe that inflation is a fact of life, but the sad truth is that the United States has only had a major, ongoing problem with inflation &lt;a href="http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/10-things-that-would-be-different-if-the-federal-reserve-had-never-been-created" title="since the Federal Reserve was created"&gt;since the Federal Reserve was created&lt;/a&gt; back in 1913. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you do not believe this, just check out &lt;a href="http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/10-things-that-would-be-different-if-the-federal-reserve-had-never-been-created/inflation-3" title="this chart"&gt;this chart&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sadly, the U.S. dollar has lost well over 95 percent of its value since the Federal Reserve was created. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, yes, there would be a need for strict monetary discipline under a debt-free monetary system, but it would be hard to do worse than the Federal Reserve has already been doing. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And Congress could always slow down inflation using other methods.&amp;nbsp; For example, raising the reserve requirements for banks (which should be done anyway) would help keep inflation in check.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the above proposals were adopted, the end result would be something that we could all live with.&amp;nbsp; The Federal Reserve system would be abolished, the national debt burden on future generations would be wiped out, the economy would not have to go through a devastating economic collapse that could last a decade or longer, and we could eventually make a fairly smooth transition to "hard money" if we wanted to after the national debt is gone.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is there any other proposal out there that does all of those things?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;There are many out there that would dispute some of the points above, and debate is good.&amp;nbsp; By engaging in debate, we can hopefully help educate the American people about the nature of money.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The key is to get rid of our current debt-based Federal Reserve Notes and replace them with debt-free United States Notes.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The American people need to understand that it is a lie that the U.S. government "must" borrow money from somebody else.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When the U.S. government borrows money, it slowly transfers wealth from the American people to those that lent it. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At this point, we have created a financial nightmare for future generations that is unlike anything the world has ever seen before.&amp;nbsp; We owe it to future generations to eliminate the debt problem without destroying the United States economy.&amp;nbsp; Adopting debt-free money would allow us to do that.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;But sadly, neither political party is even talking about debt-free money.&amp;nbsp; In fact, most of the politicians in both political parties probably do not even know what debt-free money is. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So we need to get the American people educated about these things.&amp;nbsp; Because if we stay on the course that we are currently on, an economic collapse is inevitable.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Reference&lt;/span&gt;

text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;Experiments on humans, animals and plants are highly regulated in civilised nations. Experimenters are bound by rules of morality and ethics. There must be agreement by the subjects. They must be carefully afforded "informed consent", with detailed descriptions of the risks and rewards. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The experimenters have the duty of declaring vested interests. Particularly they must reveal possible personal benefit from the outcome of the experiment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Experiments are, by convention, given a restricted time frame, for review and reassessment. If it seems that the experiment is not going to be beneficial to humans, plants or animals, that experiment must be curtailed forthwith. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;************************************************&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;Since the advent of Homo sapiens, strong biological forces have inexorably separated people into their different "types" by geographical area.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;An inherent quality of biology, beyond control, has generated this distinction between humans. These separating paths have lead to the genetic, racial, biochemical and the behavioural varieties of humans.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;Progressive separation of humans also drove the divergence which has created the thousands of human languages. Most are now so distant from each other to be mutually unintelligible. People will continue to form enclaves of similar genetic and language groups.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The creation of human bio-diversity has always been inevitable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;***********************************************&lt;br /&gt;Sixty years ago, the governments of Western Europe began an experiment on their entire human population. It was, and remains, the largest biological experiment ever conducted.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;This experimental design was to attempt to reverse human bio-diversity. To do that governments brought, and allow to remain as a breeding sub-set, people of different genes, races, cultures and languages into the geographical boundaries of Britain and Europe.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;The political hypothesis was to test whether the distinctions between different varieties of humans, would progressively lessen if brought into Europe. It was guessed that ultimately these varied people (and their varied cultures) would amalgamate seamlessly, to the benefit of all. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The term “integration" was conjured.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It soon became clear that conflict was probable. Aggressive rioting between the races occurred. Integration was not going to work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Therefore the experiment was modified to test whether intuitive human behaviour could be changed under threat of law. The native populations were ordered not to reveal that they recognised (the obvious) distinctions between the existing inhabitants and the aliens. They were ordered to curtail any discourse amongst themselves, which might emphasise these distinctions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The term “criminal racism” was invented&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since “integration” had failed the experimental basis was changed again. Instead of integrating, could these differing groups instead function along-side one with the other? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The term "multiculturalism" was coined.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++&lt;br /&gt;Bizarrely, in an exact parallel, multiculturalism was attempted in South Africa, in an attempt to protect the cultural and genetic homogeny of resident Europeans. The description was "separate development". &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The outcome was a cascade of inflamed, ruthless and hypocritical condemnation by the continental Europeans. This attempt at self-protection by a small, minority group was destroyed by bullying. &lt;br /&gt;Ironically the “anti-apartheid movement” was later going to have important destructive sequelae in Europe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++&lt;br /&gt;The Governments of Europe could have only one moral justification for this experimentation. That was to ensure the long term safety, well-being and contentment of their populations and their progeny. What mandate did the governments have to commence this experiment, which by its very design would bring disequilibrium and so fear to European Societies? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They had none. The population was not consulted. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Instead in an unbelievable arrogance and opinionated superiority these politicians, amateur scientists that they are, forced into place this massive, irreversible, naïve, rationally indefensible and highly dangerous idea. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*************************************************&lt;br /&gt;Synchronous with this experiment on humans was another political experiment on a massive ecological system. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This “good idea” was to play manipulator of the living and to bring the Nile Perch into Lake Victoria Nyanza. That lake had one of the most diverse fish environments on earth. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The perch was surreptitiously introduced in 1954, and more official introductions occurred in 1962 and 1963.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The end result of that experiment was to destroy the highly refined and complex ecology of the second widest body of fresh water in the world.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The experiment so altered the freshwater ecosystem of Lake Victoria that several hundred species became extinct or near extinction.&amp;nbsp; This politically engineered event was likely the largest extinction event amongst vertebrates in the 20th century &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The impact on the local economy was the subject of the documentary &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darwin%27s_Nightmare" style="color: #a64d79;" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Darwin's Nightmare&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: #a64d79;"&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;**************************************************&lt;br /&gt;The analogy between the past destruction of the East African ecosystem and the impending destruction of the European Civilisation should be clear.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Both were based on “Political Good Ideas”.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;Both were philosophically and scientifically flawed from foundation. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Both were doomed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;**************************************************&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Sixty years ago, the governments of Western Europe embarked on an experiment on their entire human population. It was, and remains, the largest biological experiment ever conducted. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;It breaches the most fundamental guidelines of experimentation and transgresses every component of the rules and restraints experimentation. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;It has been clear, from the outset that this was not going to afford the Europeans the benefit of greater contentment and greater safety.(1)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Was the population, the "experimental sample", informed of this? Were they told of the hazards and potential? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The short answer is no.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Was the experiment terminated when it became clear that it was failing?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;No.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;But there was a parallel subplot which allowed a small group of people, the politicians, to benefit themselves greatly. Immigration has been used to buy politicians power, and bolster their tenure. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;This was scientific fraud at its worst, and by its magnitude the most despicable, condemnable and outrageous travesty of a political mandate, contrary to all understandings of democracy, morality and ethics.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;This blind endeavour has as much chance of success as a king ordering the retreat of the tides.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;For the sake of humanity, the survival of the European and God’s wondrous diversity, this experiment must be curtailed forthwith.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;_____________________________________________&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;(1) The Empire Windrush docked in Tilbury on 21 June 1948 becoming a landmark in the history of migration to the UK.

They expressed concern that large numbers of "coloured" immigrants might "impair the harmony, strength and cohesion of our public and social life and to cause discord and unhappiness among all concerned." &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1345576064847731660-1568616295731618544?l=southendpatriot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/1568616295731618544'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/1568616295731618544'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/2011/12/sixty-year-experiment-by-caratacus.html' title=''/><author><name>Victor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01084637423160644775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-I675DXsOa-g/TvAtuFdHD_I/AAAAAAAACzE/ivWdAm4WPeI/s72-c/SS_Empire_Windrush.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345576064847731660.post-7253364432706523102</id><published>2011-12-15T23:55:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-12-15T23:55:59.397-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div id="content-wrapper"&gt;&lt;div id="crosscol-wrapper" style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=1345576064847731660" name="6713233114447267481"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;b style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;ELECTION NIGHT&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="post-body entry-content"&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-bGu0BnHIYz8/Tuq6EIZFgvI/AAAAAAAABN8/NKOwYg1rzaw/s1600/DSC01771.JPG" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="225px" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-bGu0BnHIYz8/Tuq6EIZFgvI/AAAAAAAABN8/NKOwYg1rzaw/s400/DSC01771.JPG" width="400px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="post-body entry-content"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: white;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reference &lt;span style="color: #9fc5e8;"&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://eddybutler.blogspot.com/2011/12/election-night.html"&gt;Eddy Butler's blog&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="post-body entry-content"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;There were a couple of interesting by-elections held last night.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0b5394; font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;FELTHAM AND HESTON&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The one that attracted most attention was the Parliamentary by-election in Feltham and Heston, but the media largely ignored even this contest and the turn-out was very low. There was little interest as it is a fairly safe Labour seat. Having said that the Conservatives controlled it for a period in the mid 1980s, although the demographics have changed since then.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;In the 2010 General Election the BNP contested this seat and obtained 3.5% of the poll and 1,714 votes. At that time there would have been a good chance of a saved deposit in Feltham and Heston had Nick Griffin not stabbed the Party in the back by running off to the police and the world’s media like a cur dog with his phoney tale of threats to kill him.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;This was the result in the by-election:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Labour - 12, 639 votes (54.4%)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Conservative – 6,436 votes (27.7%)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Liberal Democrats – 1,364 votes (5.9%)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;UKIP – 1,276 votes (5.5%)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;BNP – 540 votes (2.3%)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Green – 426 votes (1.8%)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;English Democrats (Roger Cooper) – 322 votes (1.4%)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;London People Before Profit – 128 votes (0.6%)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Bus-Pass Elvis Party – 93 votes (0.4%)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The BNP vote collapsed by over 50% in percentage terms, despite (or perhaps partly due to) putting great store in having its dilapidated ‘Truth Truck’ chug around the constituency for nearly a week.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;I believe the BNP are patting themselves on their backs because they got about 40% more votes than the English Democrats.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;This is the first time the EDs have contested this seat and put minimal resources into the campaign - just to get the name out there. The ED result isn’t too bad at all bearing this in mind.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;In a campaign where the ability of a minor party to ‘sell itself’ is minimal, it is obvious that a party with greater name recognition, even a terribly tarnished and toxic name, will tend to get more votes than an unknown quantity. In this election the EDs were an unknown quantity. In such contests the BNP’s name recognition will carry it through. The BNP should have got at least three or four times the EDs vote here, not just 40% more.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;However the BNP has no ability to garner greater levels of support from the silent majority even if it had the nous or ability to campaign thoroughly. Its image is irredeemably broken. It is stuck in a rut.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The only reason the BNP were mentioned at all in the news following the declaration of this result was to draw attention to the fact that UKIP had overtaken them. This result will have ratcheted down the residual BNP hard core support base. They have developed the reputation with the public as being losers.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;This result also amply demonstrates, as if it were necessary, that the BNP has absolutely no chance whatsoever of getting anyone elected to the GLA next year.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;The BNP are the past.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Their predicament reminds me of the words of that Rolling Stones song (memorably covered by Chris Farlowe), &lt;i&gt;‘Out of Time’&lt;/i&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;You don't know what's going on&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;You've been away for far too long&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;You can't come back and think you are still mine&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;You're out of touch, my baby&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;My poor discarded baby&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;I said, baby, baby, baby, you're out of time&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;You thought you were a clever girl&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Giving up your social whirl&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;But you can't come back and be the first in line, oh no&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;You're obsolete my baby&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;My poor old-fashioned baby&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;I said baby, baby, baby you're out of time&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Obsolete sums it up.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;BILLERICAY&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The last time the BNP contested an election in Basildon, was in July 2010, when they obtained only 4% in Nethermayne ward. In May 2010 the BNP had obtained 9% in this ward and 16% in 2008.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Everywhere the BNP vote is going in one direction –down.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Within Basildon, Billericay has always been difficult territory. For example in Billericay West the BNP polled just 3% in 2010 and 7% in 2008.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Basildon Branch of the BNP (which no longer exists) was very hard working at a time when the Eastern Region of the BNP was working like one of those well oiled machines. In September 2009 it contested a by-election for Billericay South West ward in Billericay Town Council. This is about half of the Basildon District Council Billericay West ward.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The result was curious as the Conservatives did not contest the election and this is a very strong area for the Conservatives. UKIP actually won as follows:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;UK Independence Party – 480 votes (57%)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Labour – 266 votes (32%)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;British National Party – 95 votes (11%)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Yesterday there was another by-election in Billericay South West Ward. This time the result was:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Conservatives - 365 votes (59.2%)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;UKIP – 202 votes (32.7%)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;English Democrats (Tony Gladwin) – 50 votes (8.1%)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The English Democrats at their first outing in this area did better than the BNP in 2008 and 2010. It was not far behind the BNP result in 2009 when the Conservatives did not contest the seat. Furthermore UKIP are entrenched there now as they have a local councillor.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The BNP local election results since the 2010 election have never been better than previous results. They have all been worse. Only the EDs have been able to buck this trend.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The Billericay result is quite interesting and shows what can be done with a little work. The local English Democrat activists did not run a super sophisticated campaign - it just consisted of a couple of leaflet drops. It shows that if the English Democrats manage to establish a bit of local identity then they can get reasonable votes. In fact this EDs result compares very favourably with that obtained by the BNP at its height. There is an overlap between those who voted for the BNP when it had a degree of popularity with those who would potentially vote for the EDs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;These two by-elections illustrate what I have been saying for some time.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;In many ways the Billericay result tells us much more than Feltham and Heston. Local grassroots politics is the way ahead. The EDs can make real impact in that arena through implementing more sophisticated local tactics and it can make its distinctive brand of nationalism incredibly popular. By developing from the bottom up the EDs profile and name recognition will be steadily enhanced until in short order it will really start to take off.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;b style="color: #0b5394;

We were offered a treaty that didn’t have proper safeguards for Britain and I decided it was not right to sign that treaty.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His defiant “no” in the face of a bullying Franco-German plot won widespread applause last night. And jubilant Tories insisted that the rift with the Brussels bureaucracy now makes a referendum on our EU membership unavoidable.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tory MPs were last night understood to be preparing a “hero’s welcome” for the Prime Minister when he returns to the Commons on Monday.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mr Cameron said his decision to block the bid for a powerful new “economic government” in a treaty binding all 27 EU nations was essential to protect Britain’s interests.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It raised the prospect that Britain will be isolated by standing alone outside a new continental bloc dominated by the 17 eurozone nations. Embittered Eurocrats were understood last night to be plotting “revenge attacks” on Britain.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One EU official snapped: “This is going to cost the UK dearly. They have antagonised everyone.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But Eurosceptics hope that the dramatic developments will mark the start of the unravelling of Britain’s ties to Brussels.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Senior Tory MP Mark Pritchard, secretary of the 1922 Committee of Conservative backbenchers, said: “I hope this is the beginning of a robust new Euroscepticism in the Government. This makes an EU referendum far more likely.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Former Shadow Home Secretary David Davis said: “We are seeing a new balance of power in Europe arising out of the eurozone crisis and we are also seeing how the French and Germans intend to use it – pretty forcefully in their own interests and ignoring the interests of others. &lt;/span&gt;                      &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“David Cameron has to protect Britain against that, he did exactly the right thing.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The summit collapsed in rancour in the early hours of yesterday morning after EU leaders refused to accept Mr Cameron demands for “safeguards” to protect Britain’s interests in the treaty overhaul.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fraught negotiations at the summit in Brussels dragged on for more than 10 hours until breaking up at 4.41am.German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Nicolas Sarkozy had championed sweeping new powers for Brussels to help shore up the struggling euro, including penalties for countries that run up massive debts and strict Brussels scrutiny over national budgets. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                      &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Mr Cameron had offered to back the treaty changes in return for guarantees that would protect British interests such as the City of London.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But sources said the exchanges became heated as the Prime Minister repeatedly refused to surrender.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At one stage, a furious Mr Sarkozy was said to have been physically restrained by aides after losing his temper.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mr Sarkozy said: “We were not able to accept (the British demands) because we consider quite the contrary – that a very large and substantial amount of the problems we are facing around the world are a result of lack of regulation of financial services and therefore can’t have a waiver for the United Kingdom.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And in a swipe after the summit, Chancellor Merkel said: “I didn’t think David Cameron sat with us at the table. We had to get some sort of agreement and we couldn’t make compromises, we had to meet tough rules. But that won’t deter Europe on other issues.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mr Cameron insisted that he remained committed to keeping Britain in the EU. But he also made clear he was ready to consider withdrawal if our new relationship with Brussels threatens British interests.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“The membership is in our interests and I’ve always said if that’s the case I’ll support our membership,” he said. “Of course this does represent a change in our relationship. But the core of the relationship – the single market, the trade and the investment, the growth, the jobs that we want to see – that remains as it was.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He ruled out a referendum, arguing it was unnecessary as Britain had not signed up to a new treaty. But he acknowledged it was unprecedented for a British PM to veto an EU treaty.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He admitted he had faced relentless pressure to back down from other EU leaders. “You are obviously in a room with 26 other people who are saying ‘put aside your national interest, go along with the crowd, do what will make life easy and comfortable with you there in that room’, but you say no.” Even some Labour MPs yesterday acknowledged that Mr Cameron’s refusal to surrender could ultimately spell the end for the EU.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Former Labour Europe minister Denis MacShane said: “There is now little point in Britain staying in the EU.” But London Mayor Boris Johnson, who joined the call for a referendum earlier this week, said: “David Cameron has played a blinder and he has done the only thing that it was really open to him to do.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                      &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;But Labour risked losing touch with millions of voters yesterday after leader Ed Miliband said: “It’s a terrible outcome for Britain because we are going to be excluded from key economic decisions that will affect our country in the future.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="storycopy" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Deputy PM Nick Clegg backed the PM’s position but many Eurofanatic Lib Dem MPs were outraged.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reference&lt;span style="color: #9fc5e8;"&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #9fc5e8;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/289034"&gt;Daily Express&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1345576064847731660-2186728475776761081?l=southendpatriot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/2186728475776761081'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/2186728475776761081'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/2011/12/cameron-finds-some-backbone-on-europe.html' title=''/><author><name>Victor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01084637423160644775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-hGeqrlFHAzw/TuNW_ycP15I/AAAAAAAACyc/-StgPQg2R-g/s72-c/Daily_Express_Weekend_newspaper_front_page.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345576064847731660.post-2290339654837806471</id><published>2011-12-09T00:32:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2011-12-09T04:58:25.629-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color: #0b5394; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;The Truth About Our Liberal Elite And Race Crime&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-lbT80RpCEQo/TuICxhQgfNI/AAAAAAAACyU/iWpVtqffeuc/s1600/LadyJustice-DailyPlunge.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-lbT80RpCEQo/TuICxhQgfNI/AAAAAAAACyU/iWpVtqffeuc/s1600/LadyJustice-DailyPlunge.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;By Leo McKinstry, The Daily Express&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; margin: 0pt 0pt 15px;"&gt;&lt;div class="introcopy"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="introcopy"&gt;THE dogma of political correctness is dangerously weakening Britain’s traditional concept of justice. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Our ruling elite are so deluded by the ideology of cultural diversity that they have lost the ability to protect the innocent and punish the guilty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That is the only conclusion to be drawn from the outrageous leniency shown by a court this week towards a gang of Somalian Muslim women who savagely beat up a white woman in Leicester city centre. In a brutal, unprovoked assault, the thugs knocked Rhea Page to the ground, then repeatedly kicked her in the head while calling her a “white bitch” and “white slag”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ms Page, who was so traumatised by the incident that she has lost her job as a carer for people with learning disabilities, later said: “I thought they were going to kill me.” &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Incredibly, despite the ferocity of the attack, the judge gave the girls only suspended sentences, even though he could have jailed them for up to five years. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His bizarre decision came after the defence told him that the Muslim assailants had been drinking and were “not used to being drunk” because of their religion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a cause for mitigation, this is absurd. Why on earth should Muslims be treated any differently to other offenders, simply on the grounds of their faith?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If they are so pious, so respectful of Islamic rituals, why were they drinking in the first place? And shouldn’t their drunkenness in public, an offence in itself, have added to the seriousness of their crime rather than lessened it?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Just as troubling was the failure of the authorities to charge the gang with racially-aggravated assault. For nothing could be more racially abusive than their barbaric cry of “kill the white bitch”. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          We can be pretty sure that if a Somalian Muslim girl had been kicked to the ground by a group of white brutes, the Crown Prosecution Service and the Police would have taken a tougher approach.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          The disgraceful message of this episode is that Muslims can get drunk and maim almost with impunity because the state is so craven about their creed. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          The case makes a mockery of the idea of equality before the law - one of the cornerstones of liberal democracy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          The reluctance to imprison Ms Page’s attackers is so indicative of the supine, guilt-ridden mindset of our modern ruling class, where cowardice is dressed up as cultural sensitivity and self-loathing masquerades as tolerance.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          This mentality, which is tearing apart the moral bonds of our civilisation, can be seen all around us. A classic recent example was the police’s initial paralysing feebleness towards the rioters last August because of fears about accusations of racism. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          The same is true of the hesitancy in tackling so-called “honour” attacks on women in Muslim communities. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          Only last week, it was revealed that the total of these appalling incidents, some of them fatal, is approaching 3,000 a year.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          In a similar vein, the police and social services have long been terrified of talking openly about the growing problem of Pakistani gangs preying on white girls in northern towns. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          As Detective Inspector Alan Edwards, an expert in the field, has said, “Everyone’s been too scared to address the ethnicity factor.” &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          In the twisted world of our civic institutions, minorities are always seen as victims.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          Even the worst behaviour of some in their communities is excused by references to poverty or racism or social exclusion.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          That certainly applies to the Somalian community in Britain, who are constantly presented as one of the most oppressed groups in the country. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          But, in truth, the oppression can work the other way. Too many Somalians have become a burden on the British taxpayer, thanks to their welfare dependency. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          Over 80 per cent of them, for instance, live in taxpayer-funded homes. Moreover Somalian gangs, most of them peddling drugs, have helped to create a climate of fear in parts of our cities through their enthusiasm for violence and contempt for the law. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          As one Somalian youth from the notorious Woolwich Boys says, “We’ve come over here with one thing on our mind – money. We don’t care how we get it. The Government doesn’t stand a chance.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          Tremendous double standards are at work over race crime. Racial killings of whites are frequently downplayed or forgotten. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          The name of Kriss Donald is almost unknown today, yet the circumstances of his death could hardly have been more horrific.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          In March 2004, while walking through Glasgow, the 15-year-old schoolboy was kidnapped by a Pakistani gang, dragged to open land, tortured, stabbed 13 times and set on fire while he was still alive. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          Fortunately the gang was caught and convicted, but this monstrous crime provoked no great outpouring of moral anguish.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          Peter Fahy, one of Britain’s leading chief constables, once said that political correctness means it is “harder to get the media interested” when the victims are “young white men”.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          The British establishment is guilty of nothing less than reverse racism. Their members, from judges to politicians, think&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt; they are enlightened and compassionate. But in truth they are filled with prejudice.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                         For often they refuse to expect the same standards of civilised behaviour from certain minorities that they demand of the indigenous population. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          Such a perverted outlook is the opposite of equality. In the name of anti-racism, they have ended up in the bizarre position of promoting discrimination.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;                                          That is no way to achieve the integration and cohesion that our society so badly needs. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reference&lt;span style="color: #9fc5e8;"&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #9fc5e8;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.express.co.uk/ourcomments/view/288539/Leo-McKinstry"&gt;Daily Express&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1345576064847731660-2290339654837806471?l=southendpatriot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/2290339654837806471'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/2290339654837806471'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/2011/12/truth-about-our-liberal-elite-and-race.html' title=''/><author><name>Victor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01084637423160644775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-lbT80RpCEQo/TuICxhQgfNI/AAAAAAAACyU/iWpVtqffeuc/s72-c/LadyJustice-DailyPlunge.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345576064847731660.post-4588926132224666145</id><published>2011-12-06T23:51:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2011-12-08T10:43:07.497-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;British Justice Is A Joke&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;Compare&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MN41SENHa7U/TuCC_MJg1RI/AAAAAAAACyE/EpOYjLuEBwM/s1600/snapshot20111204184640.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MN41SENHa7U/TuCC_MJg1RI/AAAAAAAACyE/EpOYjLuEBwM/s320/snapshot20111204184640.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;An English lady, Emma West, is traveling with a young child on a tram between Croydon and Addington. The tram is full of third world aliens. Many white people find being in close contact with blacks to be&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt; psychologically stressful, culturally repellent, and often feel threatened by them. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Under severe stress, Emma West reaches breaking point and uses some choice language.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Emma West, comes from Croydon, a place which was virtually razed to the ground this year by ethnic gangs who rampaged for three days, indulging in an orgy of burning looting and violence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VwcJhsI_qhY/TuB-JdE-IOI/AAAAAAAACx8/yXN2QpZ1DSc/s1600/riots.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="288" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VwcJhsI_qhY/TuB-JdE-IOI/AAAAAAAACx8/yXN2QpZ1DSc/s320/riots.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;She has seen first hand what these people are capable of.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All she did was vent her frustrations.

This is not the picture that the biased mainstream media have painted of her.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;It has emerged that British Transport Police (BTP) were made aware of the alleged tirade at the time of the incident, which is believed to have happened three weeks ago.&lt;/span&gt;    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Officers took her off the tram and waited with her for another one. They then travelled back to New Addington on the tram with her, to meet her waiting husband.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;That should have been the end of it. Emma West was only arrested after the video, taken by another passenger who is a black woman, was posted online on Sunday. It seems the British Transport Police only arrested her when everybody started to kick up a fuss.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Emma West has now had her children taken away from her and has been remanded in custody in Bronzefield prison. To put this into context; an English girl is held in prison for a racist rant, while earlier this year at a trial in Bolton, Muslim paedophiles accused of gang rape against white girls as young as 11 were allowed out on bail.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Free Emma West protest outside HMP prison Bronzefield&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-zcysyLji1Cc/TtnwYQsMtHI/AAAAAAAACxE/wviX4o7wwvs/s1600/951427.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-zcysyLji1Cc/TtnwYQsMtHI/AAAAAAAACxE/wviX4o7wwvs/s400/951427.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: large;"&gt;Dr Frank Ellis writes a letter to the Home Secretary&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-6N_OAj0KR-w/TtnT1kmpN0I/AAAAAAAACw0/xvU8CPxgLWw/s1600/HMP+Bronzefield+1.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="137" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-6N_OAj0KR-w/TtnT1kmpN0I/AAAAAAAACw0/xvU8CPxgLWw/s200/HMP+Bronzefield+1.png" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;From: Dr Frank Ellis&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To: Theresa May, Home Secretary&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Re: The Arrest of Miss Emma West&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Date: 2nd December 2011&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Dear Home Secretary&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am writing to you to protest the outrageous arrest of Miss Emma West on a charge of allegedly racially abusing Poles and various non-white immigrants. I have to say that I found the video very distressing. It was yet another reminder of the kind of changes that immigrants have inflicted on England. To live in the south-east of England, to have to endure day in and day out the unwelcome presence of millions of non-white immigrants must eventually exact its toll on a member of the white indigenous population. Close and unavoidable contact with blacks is psychologically stressful, culturally repellent, disorientating and often very dangerous. There are no advantages whatsoever, just problems.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There comes a time when a person just cannot take any more. Every day on the BBC and the other monopoly stream media people are told that diversity is a wonderful gift; that immigrants enrich us and so on, ad nauseum. The reality is somewhat different. Immigration is destroying our country and in the process people like Emma West and millions of other white people are being racially, culturally and physically dispossessed and turned into a cowed minority in their own country. Emma West had enough: she speaks for millions of white people.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I cannot see anything in the video that would justify her being arrested. I conclude therefore that the arrest of Emma West was motivated by political expediency and maliciousness. The aim of her arrest was to cow other whites into silence so that they will not speak out against what is happening to England.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jeremy Hardy (BBC) demands that people who voted for the BNP be executed; Cameron incites hatred and violence towards Nick Griffin MEP by publicly referring to him as ‘a ghastly piece of filth’ and Clarkson says that public sector workers should be executed in front of their families. Clarkson was only being ‘silly’. Is that what Cameron said?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;And what happens when a young mother speaks for England? You send the useless police, the same cowards who were too frightened to deal with black immigrant rioters in August, to arrest her. Meanwhile the immigrants keep swarming into England, pushing us aside, mocking us and living off the wealth of another nation. And if an Englishwoman protests in language that might be inappropriate in a university seminar (unless you are black and from the hood of course) but summarises the problem in brutally plain English, she is treated as if she is a monster.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Emma West has a son. Her son has been stolen from her. If he suffers any harm from paedophiles, perverts, blacks who hate whites, immigrant doctors who can just about walk and talk - not necessarily decent English - at the same time, you will be responsible. Emma West must be released immediately, reunited with her family and left in peace. Then you can give the order to expel the immigrants. I want my England, my Motherland back. Get on with it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Frank Ellis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1345576064847731660-2942634067145721232?l=southendpatriot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/2942634067145721232'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/2942634067145721232'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/2011/12/stressed-out-everybody-must-have-seen.html' title=''/><author><name>Victor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01084637423160644775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vxLHCY2vMW4/TtvEZ5PnmVI/AAAAAAAACxc/5cg7Norl_28/s72-c/snapshot20111204184640.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345576064847731660.post-353068568104778526</id><published>2011-12-01T22:09:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2011-12-01T22:14:48.479-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Rayleigh Election Result&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;ROCHFORD - Rayleigh Central,&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt; December 1st&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Cheryl Roe....

on Liberal democrat candidate Sandy Walkington's deeply bigoted and ignorant comments about Britain, which was posted earlier, I think it is important to make clear that not only are Mr. Walkington’s views flawed and misguided for the reasons which August highlighted so well, but that Walkington's basic premise, that we, the British, are a nation of mongrels is blatantly untrue. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This claim is, of course, made frequently by liberals and multicultural zealots, but it is a lie based on ideological wish fulfillment and pure fantasy exposing a total ignorance of history.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prior to 1950, Britain was, in fact, one of the most racially homogeneous nations on Earth, even today over 80% of the native population are able to trace their genetic ancestry back at least 15 thousand years, that is to say some sixteen times longer than the indigenous&amp;nbsp; Maori people of New Zealand and roughly as long as the Clovis people of North America.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The “mongrel claim” depends on the hypothesis that previous influxes of immigrants and refugees changed the ethnic make up of the British people.&amp;nbsp; This hypothesis is frankly incorrect.&amp;nbsp; In the main the groups involved were so small in number that they had no perceptible impact on the indigenous population.&amp;nbsp; For example, the very largest group, the French Huguenots, amounted in number to less than a fifth of the current Somali population and there are currently over one hundred times as many people originating from the Indian sub continent (India, Pakistan and Bangladesh) living in Britain today than all the Huguenots who came here in the 16th and 17th centuries.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the two main invasions of Britain, at least those which occurred prior to the second half of the 20th Century, these did not have the effect the multicultural fairy tale tellers would have us believe. Following the Norman conquest most Norman troops returned home and the only significant interbreeding with our ethnically identical kin the Normans was primarily restricted to our aristocracy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some limited interbreeding unquestionably took place following the Roman conquest&amp;nbsp; thousand years before, however, again, unlike today, this was insufficient to have any impact on the native population.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One can dismiss Bonnie Greer’s fanciful claims on the infamous Question Time edition with Nick Griffin, about platoons of Africans arriving with the Roman troops, this is the sort of dubious “&lt;i&gt;history&lt;/i&gt;” which usually appears in books with large print, lots of colours and repeated references to “diversity”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no firm historical evidence that African troops accompanied the Roman invaders in any significant numbers if any did at all. If such Africans actually existed, there is no evidence they were not castrated, as was the general fate of freed slaves in ancient Rome, or that they were “Africans” as we would understand the description today, the demographics of much of North Africa were very different than it is in our time.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally, there is certainly no evidence any African were “left behind" to mate with the flaxen haired natives as the disingenuous Miss Greer whimsically suggests.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To be blunt Greer’s claims were laughable and devoid of any historical substance. It is a shameful indictment of our times that no mainstream historian had the guts or the honesty to challenge her.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It may be true that over any milenia Britain became the home of a small number of other Northern European tribes&amp;nbsp; such as Angles, Saxons and Vikings but they were ethnically identical to the Picts and Celts who were before them.&amp;nbsp; Sharing the blood of a small number of identical Northern European tribes does not make us mixed race and most definitely does not make us “mongrels”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The politically correct Mr.Walkington should remember that the population of Ethiopia, for instance is made up of no less than &lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;eighty&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt; North African tribes, meanwhile the people of Kenya include some forty ethnically identical East African tribes. If this hypocrite calls us mongrels on the basis that we are made up of half a dozen Nothern European tribes, he is clearly implying that Ethiopians and Kenyans are far more "mongrels" than we are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How many times would hell have to freeze over before Walkington could bring himself to use a term, which trips so easily off his narrow lips in relation to white Europeans, when describing an African or Asian people?.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lies such as those parroted by the unpleasant Mr. Walkington are repeated over and over again for ideological reasons, and in order to achieve a political goal. That goal is the destruction of Western Nations states by imposing an alien culture and finally an alien ethnicity upon once homogenous peoples.&amp;nbsp; They form part of an act of deliberate genocide by stealth, which I have described here before, and must be challenged every time they are told..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Walkington lies also when he says he has “no problem” with what he calls “the fact” that in 200 years we will all be coffee coloured.&amp;nbsp; In fact he glories in the prospect, as it is after all the outcome which the political masters he serves are determined to achieve.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But a lie is a lie is a lie. Goebbels may have been correct that if you tell a lie often enough people will come to believe it, however, a lie can never become a truth no matter how often our enemies repeat it.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Reference&lt;span style="color: #9fc5e8;"&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #9fc5e8;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://sarahmaidofalbion.blogspot.com/2011/11/mongrel-island.html"&gt;Sarah Maid of Albion&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1345576064847731660-3321363582326935898?l=southendpatriot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/3321363582326935898'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/3321363582326935898'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/2011/11/mongrel-island-as-postscript-to-augusts.html' title=''/><author><name>Victor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01084637423160644775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-f69aqN9qW2Q/TtCLVxyIkjI/AAAAAAAACwM/6eW5GDGzW7c/s72-c/white-cliffs-of-dover.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345576064847731660.post-742450785404410329</id><published>2011-11-25T21:47:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2011-11-25T22:32:13.701-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;h1 class="title"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0b5394;

font-size: small; font-weight: normal;"&gt;Their new partners hope to capitalise on the EDL's ability to mobilise a large number of supporters.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;div class="widget storyContent article widget-editable viziwyg-section-1024 inpage-widget-6138699 articleContent" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;div class="body "&gt;Both groups will retain a measure of independence but will support each other. EDL members will be invited to join the newly affiliated political wing and stand as candidates under its name. "There is a gentleman's agreement in place, we are looking at the EDL becoming political early next year," said Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, the leader of the far-right group. Mr Yaxley-Lennon, who also goes by the name Tommy Robinson, confirmed he had met the British Freedom Party leader Paul Weston and that discussions were at an advanced stage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mr Weston confirmed the plans and revealed he would offer Mr Yaxley-Lennon a place on the party's executive committee. He added: "We are going to say we support the principles of the EDL. We will get a lot of people who can stand in local constituencies and they will get a genuine political party in return."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The move is likely to meet with some resistance from those EDL members who want to see the group remain a "street movement". Mr Yaxley-Lennon acknowledged the issue, saying he will consult the leaders of the group's local divisions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr Matthew Goodwin, a specialist on far-right politics, thought the move would receive significant support within the EDL "simply because Mr Yaxley-Lennon is the main face of the movement". He said: "It's difficult to tell at this point as the EDL has a very fluid membership structure. It is not the case, for example, that you ever really join the EDL. There are no official entrance mechanisms."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Babs Davis, an EDL member, backed the move if the leadership thought it was in the best interests of the group. "A lot of people have said that we should go political but the movement never really wanted to do it," she said. "If that is what Tommy Robinson thinks is the right thing to do, then I agree with him. I think he has done a brilliant job. The whole point of being in the EDL is to follow what the leadership says."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr Goodwin, who is a professor at the University of Nottingham, said: "Since the widespread defeat for the BNP in last year's general election, the far right-wing landscape of British politics has seen the emergence of several small political parties and movements, all attempting to fill the gaps left by Nick Griffin's party and exploit wider public concerns about immigration." He said at least 45 per cent of voters refused to back any of the main parties on immigration, leaving "clear potential" for a far-right group.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr Goodwin added: "Having passed through its embryonic stage, the EDL is now very much at a crossroads: it can either remain as a confrontational streets-based social movement, or it can attempt to transform itself into a radical right-wing political party. This shift will require members and money. "It has also developed links with far more successful radical right parties in other European states, that may pass on successful strategies and tips."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Allies on the right: The leaders&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, aka Tommy Robinson&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The former BNP member is the founder and leader of the EDL. He has recently forged a strong relationship with British Freedom Party leader Paul Weston.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He is known for wearing a St George's Cross mask when making public appearances and was one of two EDL members who protested on the roof of FIFA's Zurich offices about the attempt by world football's governing body to ban England players from wearing poppies during a recent match.

font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;The substance of Sentamu's article, such as it is, also confirms the sharp decline in the intellectual core of the Church of England's leadership.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-weight: normal; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Social, intellectual and economic inequalities that arise from hard work, self-discipline and superior IQ are everywhere to be seen. They are a natural state whereby those endowed with such qualities will rise in social status, if they so wish, and to whom the benefits of wealth will accrue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nature provides no evidence that all men were created equal or that all men will achieve the same things and reach the same goals. In what is still a largely white country, though mass, non-white immigration is set to reduce whites to a minority in their own country, black failure in education, employment and high levels of representation in crime, confirm that the qualities required for even modest levels of success are largely absent among blacks resident in Britain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is it this, I wonder, that serves to fuel Sentamu’s resentment of England?&amp;nbsp; Does his apparent concern for the well-being of lower-paid workers mask a racist resentment of conspicuously successful whites?&amp;nbsp; Bear in mind that Sentamu was one of those fellow-travelling, useful idiots who lent his name to the viciously anti-white racist Macpherson Report (1999).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Macpherson, Sentamu and all the others involved in the preparation of this hate tract, which had very little to do with a bungled murder inquiry and everything to do with attacking and undermining the institutions of a white nation, bear a large share of the responsibility for the degenerate behaviour of blacks that struck English cities in August 2011.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It does not occur to Sentamu that companies and businesses are founded by ambitious and private individuals whose intention is to create a successful business not a charity. Some of these companies generate huge wealth and their products have immeasurably improved the living standards of millions of people. They exist to make money and profit so that they can meet the demands of investors and so that they can reinvest capital to make more products.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A privately owned company that is conspicuously profitable and handsomely rewards its shareholders and Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) will generate envy and resentment, especially among those who regard themselves as the intellectual and moral arbiters of our society.&amp;nbsp; Privately run companies do not have to answer to the outpourings of Sentamu’s poisonous envy presented as concern for the less economically successful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sentamu concludes that in those instances in a company where CEOs are paid 300 times more than the least well paid employees&amp;nbsp; - no company is actually cited by Sentamu – that this tells these employees ‘that they are of little value’. It tells employees no such thing. However much he might like to enjoy the same salary and benefits of the CEO the security guard knows that he is incapable of running a major company.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If he is convinced that he is as good as his master he can start a business and prove it. Otherwise he must earn his living as an employee. Where large numbers of people come together, as in the workplace, inequalities between and among individuals will be apparent. No employee works to improve the position of others (or of starving Somalis and Kenyans). He strives towards his own ends and from this basic fact of human nature arises, inevitably and desirably, economic and social inequalities and the economic and intellectual progress associated therewith. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sentamu tells us that: ‘Top pay has been found to bear little or no relation to company performance, but even if it did, isn’t the performance of a company dependent on the work and well-being of all its staff?’ It is obvious that the performance of a company depends, in part, on the work and well-being of employees. Sentamu implies without any evidence that when the gap between senior personnel and junior personnel is large or very large that the morale and well-being of junior staff in some unspecified way suffers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I suggest it does not. It is the nature of envy to which Sentamu implicitly appeals that differences in pay and privileges are most painfully felt among workers and staff of comparable levels. The worker on the factory-floor does not envy the stratospheric pay of the CEO: he envies the slight increase in pay which his more able fellow worker enjoys by virtue of his better and more efficient work rate and ethic. That difference may only be small but it gnaws away at the less well remunerated worker’s sense of self-esteem. This is why unions attract mediocrities who wish to see all the stupid, the able, the lazy and industrious held to the same standard. None must be permitted to shine since this will make the bad and stupid workers confront their inadequacies. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Companies that pay top staff high salaries regardless of results are not necessarily wasting money. CEOs have a symbolic, propagandistic function that companies use to promote themselves. This is especially the case where senior appointments are not made on merit but on considerations of equal opportunities and affirmative action which is then used by the company to trumpet its commitment to racial and sex diversity. Such appointees will be very well paid for doing very little.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They are simply window dressing and public relations puppets. Moreover, paying the CEO a vast salary which may or may not be related to his performance signals the power and status of the company itself: it is a message of corporate dominance and power. There is no difference at all between a wealthy individual donating millions of dollars to feed the starving, AIDS-ridden hordes of Africa and a top-listed company paying a CEO a large salary. Both are gestures of power and status designed to impress.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sentamu worries about the effects of high levels of CEO pay on the morale of lower paid employees. He should ask himself what it must be like for a high-IQ and capable white employee in a top-rated Western company to be passed over for promotion in favour of a low-IQ incompetent black, all done in the name of the false god of diversity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Moreover, if Sentamu is indeed concerned by the lack of any link between pay for CEOs and performance he might like to consider the beam in his own eye. Where, pray tell, is the link between the performance of the Church of England’s leadership, its CEOs, as it were, and the salaries, fringe benefits and pensions that Rowan Williams and Sentamu enjoy? It is quite clear to me, sinner and lover of money that I am that the Church of England has succumbed to heresy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Church of England openly promotes homosexuality and the ordination of women priests. It does not accept the teachings of Christ and has, on so many indicators, succumbed to the Satanic creed of&amp;nbsp; “do what thou will shall be the whole of the law”.&amp;nbsp; When the Church of England teaches that there are no privileged perspectives it destroys its own authority.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If there are no privileged perspectives then sin cannot be condemned, the sinners cannot be punished; there is nothing to worry about when Christians are persecuted by all those nice Muslims or when Muslims try to establish no-go areas in England. Why should any Englishman accept anything said in the name of the Church of England when the church itself rejects Holy Scripture and openly colludes with its enemies and the enemies of England? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Again, and given Sentamu’s concern for what he considers to be the high pay enjoyed by CEOs, I find it strange that he has nothing to say about the grotesque mismatch between the rates of pay enjoyed by senior figures in the public sector and their generally shoddy performance: university vice-chancellors are overpaid bureaucrats and have inflicted long-term damage on their institutions by permitting reckless expansion; social services consistently fail to protect little boys and girls from sub-human perverts and the violently retarded; those charged with securing our borders let criminals and illegal immigrants come and go at their will; and the police are too frightened to act against non-white criminals; NHS hospitals resemble death camps where the old, weak and vulnerable are subjected to selections based on indifference, where they are abused, starved, mocked, dehydrated and, where, far too often, they are exposed to the not so tender mercies of Third Worlders masquerading as doctors and nurses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Local government is yet another example of public sector incompetence. The monopoly enjoyed by local government means that these bodies can impose confiscatory and rapacious levels of council tax regardless of their sub-standard performance and, of course, these councils pay themselves all kinds of bonuses for meeting spurious government targets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If thousands of welfare parasites and immigrants who live on the backs of others live in a particular local authority there is very little chance that those in work and who pay for the flat-screen televisions and trainers coveted by the feckless can change this state of affairs through the ballot box: parasites simply outnumber the responsible hosts; indigenous whites – who supposedly do not exist - have effectively been disenfranchised by immigration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of the worst examples of overpaid public employees is the BBC. As a body funded by a license fee, a viewing tax, and one that can levy a tax even if you do not watch the BBC, there is an exceptionally powerful case for mandating that the full salary, privileges, pension provisions and any other benefits enjoyed by its senior personnel be published in full every year. Were the BBC a privately funded entity there would be no grounds for such disclosure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sentamu’s exploitation of poverty to attack successful companies is the standard method used by Marxist agitators and those who are determined to ignore human nature. People who choose not to eat properly, who smoke, who consider a subscription to satellite television to be an essential item of expenditure rather than proper clothing for their children, women who have child after child to different fathers, who buy expensive consumer trash on a credit card, do not live in poverty: they are stupid, feckless and incompetent. They know that no matter how depraved and reckless their behaviour that welfare payments paid by people in work will secure them a roof over their heads and the misguided sympathy from people like Sentamu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The person who is quite able to survive on a modest income but cannot afford a Mercedes or a long-haul holiday is not poor. It is not a matter of any moral, social or religious concern that that he must do without high-status and conspicuous consumption which others can afford.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Third-World immigrants who have entered Britain and who exploit the welfare generosity of this country are not poor. In this country they enjoy a standard of living which would be impossible in the failed Third-World states whence they come. This is why they come here of course. Sentamu, an African, is well aware of this state of affairs.&amp;nbsp; Rather than attacking British companies he should turn his attention to the race war being waged by his fellow Africans against whites in South Africa. Why does the Church of England remain so silent about this genocide by stealthy instalments? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a still relatively free country, such as England, inequalities of income and social status are inevitable and desirable. Those who have the talents to succeed have a good chance of succeeding. This is why Sentamu hates the Western free market economies since it rewards some and ignores others, highlighting these innate differences. In this world opportunities are never equal and never can be. People who are differentiated by innately superior and inferior levels of intelligence, knowledge and the all-important work ethic will not produce the same outcomes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The more conditions are rendered equal the greater the role played by innate factors. Social mobility cannot be open to all since not all will be able to exploit the available opportunities. Those that can enjoy greater socio-economic status will achieve the rewards which go with such status. Divisions by class and status are normal. If Sentamu wishes to remove these differentiated outcomes he must be party to the destruction of a society which rewards individual achievement. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sentamu’s vision of a more caring and equal society is one of compulsory equality and even higher levels of taxation to support an ever growing welfare parasite class. I take it for granted that Sentamu’s hideous vision for my country means that immigration controls shall be formally abolished so that millions more indigent and unemployable Africans can overwhelm us. Naturally the indigenous population shall be expected to care for these immigrants and make them feel needed and place them on an equal footing with the English. If we English do not make them feel welcome then obviously we are somehow evil, racist and so on, (→ ∞).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sentamu states that: ‘Great wealth has for so long been seen as a mark of status’ and that we have to change this state of affairs.&amp;nbsp; To this end, Sentamu proposes two changes. First, those who in his words ‘who have already rewarded themselves most handsomely’ would not be acknowledged in the Queen’s Honours List. Second, he suggest that in order to put a stop to tax avoidance people should be encouraged to tick a box on their tax returns indicating that they have no objection to having the amount they have paid in tax made public. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sentamu’s first proposal confirms his pitiful understanding of wealth and wealth creation. Wealth creation is inextricably linked to innovation and technological success. It is right and proper that we recognise and reward innovation. Why should a highly successful inventor – there are no highly successful inventors in Uganda – who makes vast sums of money be excluded from being honoured by my Queen?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The second proposal has nothing to do with tax avoidance (Sentamu does not seem to grasp the difference between tax avoidance and tax evasion) and everything to do with arousing envy and resentment against those who are successful. Were Sentamu’s proposals to be taken seriously they would lead to a society in which all innovation would cease, or all the innovators would be driven away, and one which would regress to social and economic stagnation and thence to decline. The green pus of envy, the resentment of the successful, which is the hallmark of the social leveller, oozes from Sentamu’s proposals. Sentamu should begin his quest inside the institution that employs him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If he is so concerned about the connection between wealth and status what does he propose to do to reduce the wealth of the Church of England and its drive to maintain its undeserved status, a status based on its loyalty to England which it has now cast aside? Sentamu, the Ugandan, should bear in mind that the Church of England is a Church of England and a Church for England. The Church of England was not intended to minister to the spiritual needs, whatever they are, of the Third World. In any case, Africans prefer sangomas, muti, killing albinos and cannibalism. If that suits them, fine. Just stay in Africa where they and their mumbo-jumbo belong. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Instead of berating his white hosts for their success and wealth, I suggest that Sentamu returns to his native Africa and preaches the gospel of wealth creation to his fellow Africans instructing them that it is a sin to live as international-aid parasites on the donations of the white man.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Africans must learn to stand alone or perish. Sentamu should also lecture his fellow Africans that they must put a stop to their selfish and destructive breeding otherwise they will all starve to death. The time will come when even the white man’s agricultural prowess will not be able to feed the billions of clamouring, voracious, black mouths never mind the seething masses of India, Pakistan, China, Central and South America. Sentamu should also start to lecture Mugabe and his fellow Marxist savages, Mandela et al, that dispossessing and murdering successful white farmers is not a very smart move in a continent threatened by the spectre of mass starvation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Frank Ellis, 13th November 2011 &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;div style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reference&lt;span style="color: #9fc5e8;"&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #9fc5e8;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://sarahmaidofalbion.blogspot.com/2011/11/archbishop-john-sentamus-misconceptions.html"&gt;Sarah's Blog&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1345576064847731660-4749508079734546532?l=southendpatriot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/4749508079734546532'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/4749508079734546532'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/2011/11/archbishop-john-sentamus-misconceptions_20.html' title=''/><author><name>Victor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01084637423160644775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-U1JESvZGwLc/Tsn27Aegk3I/AAAAAAAACvk/m3rmJ9JgX6s/s72-c/Sentamu%25285%2529.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345576064847731660.post-5108894269501410597</id><published>2011-11-19T07:06:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2011-11-19T07:23:46.399-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;90% of immigrants to the UK live&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;in England, say Migration-Watch&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-8HTyFiXGjnU/TsfJj3HgIII/AAAAAAAACvM/-E09-Q29j3o/s1600/crowded+england.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="305" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-8HTyFiXGjnU/TsfJj3HgIII/AAAAAAAACvM/-E09-Q29j3o/s400/crowded+england.jpg" width="450" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More than 90% of immigrants to the UK live in England, meaning increased problems with overcrowding, new research has claimed.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Migration Watch UK said it had completed a study of immigration and found that, of the 7.1 million foreign-born people in Britain, 6.6 million of them live in England - 93% of the group. Scotland is home to 326,000 foreigners, while there are 150,000 immigrants in Wales and 100,000 in Northern Ireland.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The campaign group said its research had also shown England is already one of the most crowded countries in the world. Migration Watch UK said ONS figures suggested the English population is set to grow by another 4.3 million immigrants over the next 16 years.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The group's chairman Sir Andrew Green said: "The immigration lobby like to talk about the UK, obscuring the fact that England is six times as crowded as Scotland.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;"Since the vast majority of immigrants come to England, it is England's place in the league table that counts.

Southend is now the worst place in the whole of South England in which to find a job.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Southend's primary schools are in crisis due to high immigrant birth rates. Most schools in the borough are at bursting point, forcing the council to divert millions of pounds of taxpayer's money into a massive schools expansion programme. Some schools in Southend have reached the tipping point where the number of foreign children outnumber English children.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Immigration has placed a huge strain on Southend's social housing stock. Planning laws are being relaxed by the Tory government to make it easier for developers to build on Green Belt land. This will result in the destruction and&amp;nbsp; the concreting of the countryside around Southend in order to build&amp;nbsp; housing estates for newly arrived immigrant populations?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The good news is that Southend's deranged Lib-Lab-Con councillors are gradually being booted out of office by the voting public. The electorate have started to show a preference for Independent councillors over the Lib-Lab-Con community wreckers and diversity freaks. There are now eight Independent councillors sitting on Southend council.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hopefully, the growing support for the English Democrats in Southend will also play a part in getting rid of more of Southend's disastrous establishment politicians. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1345576064847731660-4412234345086488828?l=southendpatriot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/4412234345086488828'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/4412234345086488828'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/2011/11/in-southend-brits-are-being-ignored-in_14.html' title=''/><author><name>Victor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01084637423160644775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-cDPtgDq_nqk/Tr5r48kdgOI/AAAAAAAACso/lFTQrvFkPiw/s72-c/cncl+robertson.png' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345576064847731660.post-3648417613585905503</id><published>2011-11-13T00:55:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2011-11-14T23:26:34.653-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="color: #073763;

We express our deep concern that, according to official figures, the population of the UK is expected to reach 70 million within 20 years with two thirds of the increase due to immigration.  While we recognise the benefits that properly controlled immigration could bring to our economy and society, this population increase, which is the equivalent of building seven cities the size of Birmingham, will have a huge impact both on our quality of life and on our public services yet the public has never been consulted.  So we call on the government to take all necessary steps to get immigration down to a level that will stabilise our population as close to the present level as possible and, certainly, well below 70 million."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="description" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="description" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The Petition can be signed&lt;span style="color: #9fc5e8;"&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b style="color: #9fc5e8;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/19658"&gt;Here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1345576064847731660-4378031575842107096?l=southendpatriot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/4378031575842107096'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/4378031575842107096'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/2011/11/sign-migration-watch-petition-migration.html' title=''/><author><name>Victor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01084637423160644775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-IA49s_KvY3M/TrU_tKknjcI/AAAAAAAACsI/Qm4ECW5BQbo/s72-c/MIGRATION+WATCH.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345576064847731660.post-7540397979702992009</id><published>2011-11-05T02:57:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-11-05T03:21:08.256-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Ethnically Cleansing the English&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0b5394;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;An article by Paul Weston&lt;/span&gt;

that mass immigration is nothing other than a positive boon, an unarguable and incontrovertible truth that must be patiently and condescendingly explained to the uneducated and the unwashed, even as the Arabella Allendes and Montmorency Guevaras over-glamorise and under-pay the scurrying, forelock tugging, cute little brown people whose multi-hued efforts in tending to the gardens, kitchen, laundry and children of the servant owning socialist class enable the latter to do the more important things in life, such as denouncing capitalism in between producing money making yet soul-destroying reality TV shows.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;For the white working class, however, those long-forgotten stalwarts of the country who failed to play their designated role in the long term plans of Mr Marx and Mr Engels, thereby earning the enduring hatred of the cuckolded intellectuals, it means nothing other than population replacement, or in the cruder yet more honest language of the betrayed working man rarely encountered at progressive Hampstead dinner parties, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;ethnic cleansing&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Is this too strong a description? Patricia Morgan of The Salisbury Review doesn’t think so. In 2006 she wrote an article entitled &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.salisburyreview.co.uk/index.php?option=com_content&amp;amp;view=article&amp;amp;catid=34:volume-25-no-2&amp;amp;id=236:ethnic-cleansing-in-east-london-patricia-morgan" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" target="_blank"&gt;Ethnic Cleansing in East London&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt; which focussed primarily on Tower Hamlets and the dispossession of white working-class Londoners who, having survived Adolf Hitler and the Luftwaffe, subsequently failed to hold back the tidal wave of Socialism and multiculturalism so avidly promoted by the British Labour Party.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Ms Morgan recounts a conversation with a left-wing friend who was slowly becoming aware of the results of Socialisms warped multicultural ideology:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="fullpost" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;- - - &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=1345576064847731660" name="readfurther"&gt;-&lt;/a&gt; - - - - -&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote style="color: #741b47;"&gt;&lt;span class="fullpost" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;When one of my old Labour Party acquaintances expressed anxiety over Islamic terrorism, I asked him why he had always been so keen on getting as many immigrants here as possible. He told me that he had been ‘&lt;b&gt;trying to make the revolution&lt;/b&gt;‘. So, while it had not been possible to storm Buckingham Palace and set up Soviets in Westminster, you could still &lt;b&gt;change the population and supplant the hated ‘other’.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;span class="fullpost" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But as with all Socialist policies, the anti-Midas touch of the Liberal/Left duly performed as it has always performed, and the hated “other” turned out not be the bowler-hatted bourgeoisie, but the cloth-capped working class English themselves, whose naïve belief in Socialism’s promise of a Brave New World failed to understand the chosen people were not white but brown, not Christian but Islamic, and not English but members of any third-world race whose culture was irredeemably at odds with that of the host culture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Patricia Morgan goes on to describe the accelerating displacement of the indigenous East-Enders, as the new arrivals from Bangladesh went straight to the head of the housing queue by dint of their family size, averaging in good Muslim tradition seven children per wife. You will note I do not say per couple, because many Muslim men in Tower Hamlets routinely have four wives each, all “legally” supported by the British State in order they may father up to twenty-eight children in a literal tsunami of polygamous demographic warfare imported from one-well villages in Bangladesh to the streets of our forefathers via Heathrow Terminal 1.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Frank Dobson, a Labour MP and traitor who attained Ministerial rank in Tony Blair’s cabinet, was on hand to astutely encourage the displacement of his party’s historical core vote. Speaking to a Bangladeshi audience in Tower Hamlets a few years ago, he encouraged them to help themselves to everything on offer from the State; nothing was too much, and no matter how much was taken, it could never fully recompense the oppressed of the non-white world for the misery and depredations they had historically suffered under the boot of the racialist-imperialist-oppressor that was Britain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And today we live with the results of this treason and betrayal. Tower Hamlets is now called “Banglatown” where, with the exception of a few vicars otherwise known as &lt;a href="http://gatesofvienna.blogspot.com/2008/03/face-of-moderate-islam-in-britain.html" target="_blank"&gt;clerical punch bags&lt;/a&gt;, there are virtually no whites left, just as there are very few whites in many other areas of London where the non-white population now amounts to &lt;a href="http://www.statistics.gov.uk/cci/nugget.asp?id=2235" target="_blank"&gt;42%&lt;/a&gt; with a full one-third of all “Londoners” born outside the UK.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you think words such as colonisation, population replacement and ethnic cleansing are a tad too strong, or perhaps even xenophobic, then please take a look at this &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1b9J8D3tOg&amp;amp;feature=player_embedded" target="_blank"&gt;video of cultural enrichment&lt;/a&gt; shot in the streets of Wembley, yet another area of London which the indigenous race has quietly vacated in a wave of &lt;a href="http://www.statistics.gov.uk/cci/nugget.asp?id=2235" target="_blank"&gt;white flight&lt;/a&gt; that in 2007 saw 340,000 Londoners celebrate diversity by foot, train, boat and plane.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And England’s other cities are going precisely the same way in precisely the same manner. The non-indigenous birth rate now averages an extraordinary &lt;a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/2644914/Fewer-than-two-thirds-of-babies-are-registered-white-British.html" target="_blank"&gt;35%&lt;/a&gt; nationally, which realistically means 60-70% in the cities alone, thus consigning indigenous English children in Birmingham, Bradford, Oldham, London, Luton and Leicester to an &lt;a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1564365/One-fifth-of-children-from-ethnic-minorities.html" target="_blank"&gt;ethnic minority in their own land&lt;/a&gt; where up to &lt;a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/education/7199249/Reading-a-Babel-of-dialects.html" target="_blank"&gt;150 different languages&lt;/a&gt; are spoken in their schools; a fate awaiting English children in all our cities and towns within a decade, and the entire country before 2030.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tracking ethnic demographics is not an exact science, but it is generally recognised that the ethnic minority population of Britain is approximately 15% which equates to 9 million out of a population of 60 million.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, the indigenous British population contains many old people, leaving only &lt;a href="http://www.census.gov/ipc/www/idb/country.php" target="_blank"&gt;50%&lt;/a&gt; of the population under 40 years of age, whilst the non-indigenous population tend to be much younger by dint of their higher birth rate, with &lt;a href="http://www.census.gov/ipc/www/idb/country.php" target="_blank"&gt;75%&lt;/a&gt; typically representing those aged under 40.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we use these statistics, the population of Great Britain &lt;b&gt;under the age of 40&lt;/b&gt; looks like this:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table border="0" cellpadding="0"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" valign="top"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Indigenous Population 2009: 25.5 million&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td align="right" valign="top"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" valign="top"&gt;Non-Indigenous Population 2009: 6.75 million&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td align="right" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" valign="top"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span class="fullpost" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But the current birth rate differentials cause the indigenous population to decline by 25% per generation whilst the non-indigenous population has historically doubled per generation, with the Muslim population growing &lt;a href="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/article5621482.ece" target="_blank"&gt;ten times faster&lt;/a&gt; than the rest of society.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we project this data forward to 2030, the figures look like this:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table border="0" cellpadding="0"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" valign="top"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Indigenous Population 2030:&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td align="right" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" valign="top"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;19 million&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" valign="top"&gt;Non-Indigenous Population 2030:&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td align="right" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" valign="top"&gt;13.5 million&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span class="fullpost" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On top of this we need to take the following into account:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;span class="fullpost" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;Approximately 200,000 Brits &lt;a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-477006/196-000-574-000-Record-numbers-leaving-Britain-new-life-abroad%E2%80%94immigration-UK-soars.html" target="_blank"&gt;emigrate&lt;/a&gt;

In 2007 &lt;i&gt;The Guardian&lt;/i&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2007/oct/23/immigrationandpublicservices.immigration" target="_blank"&gt;reported&lt;/a&gt; that Britain was heading toward a population of 70 million by 2031, but did not mention that the addition of an extra 10 million people whilst the indigenous population was simultaneously declining and emigrating required the importation of an awful lot more than just an extra 10 million immigrants.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Indeed, the liberals and the leftists are only too aware the indigenous population is being ethnically cleansed. In 2000 &lt;i&gt;The Guardian&lt;/i&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2000/sep/03/race.world1" target="_blank"&gt;predicted&lt;/a&gt; a white minority Britain by 2100, therefore tacitly admitting acceptance of population replacement, but erring only on the time frame necessary to achieve racial cleanliness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The card-carrying NUJ journalist who penned the article was no doubt loath to take into account the racial and cultural dispossession of his contemporaries under the age of 40, nor could he foresee the massive increase in immigration since 2000, nor indeed the unmentioned and rather curious instance of population replacement taking place in England alone — Scotland and Wales having escaped the fate Scottish politicians have inflicted on the Auld Enemy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another fact rarely mentioned but no less pertinent is that Socialists always lie. The figures used for this article are sourced from a government that has a vested interest in keeping the real horror of what they have been up to from the voters. Only a handful of marginally honest Labour politicians will actually admit the numbers are far higher than official figures suggest, yet they still deny any knowledge as to the real numbers of foreigners in the country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/comment/city-eye-facts-on-a-plate-our-population-is-at-least-77-million-395428.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;i&gt;The Independent&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt; suggested the population could already be as high as 80 million, based on supermarket food sales, a figure borne out by the number of National Insurance cards in existence, which are essential if you wish to work or draw benefits. Shadow Home Secretary, David Davis tells us there are 76 million NI cards equating to &lt;a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1568203/NI-database-flaws-will-hit-ID-card-scheme.html" target="_blank"&gt;29 million&lt;/a&gt; over and above eligible British citizens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One only has to walk around our towns and cities to realise that population replacement is a substantive and rapidly accelerating fact. British MP Ann Cryer, who represents Keighley, a town near Bradford, estimates that &lt;a href="http://www.economist.com/world/britain/displaystory.cfm?story_id=13497357" target="_blank"&gt;1 million&lt;/a&gt; Pakistanis came to Britain over the last four years to work, study or marry, with imported wives making up 80% of all marriages in her area, where local police chiefs describe community cohesion between the indigenous and the non-indigenous tribes as “nerve-jangling.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The anger amongst the indigenous working classes is palpable, and it is growing. As the working class EDL take to the streets stentoriously chanting &lt;i&gt;“We want our country back, we want our culture back”&lt;/i&gt; and the middle class socialist students who joined the Islamist-infiltrated UAF — as a sop to their inability to score with either a football or a member of the opposite sex — respond with girlishly high pitched squeals of &lt;i&gt;“Nazi scum off our streets”&lt;/i&gt;, then I see no reason to defer my prediction of &lt;a href="http://gatesofvienna.blogspot.com/2007/04/is-european-civil-war-inevitable-by.html" target="_blank"&gt;European civil war by 2025&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;British Home Secretary Alan Johnson does not share my apocalyptic vision of potential civil unrest, claiming &lt;a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/politics/labour/5828207/Alan-Johnson-I-dont-lose-sleep-over-prospect-of-70m-population.html" target="_blank"&gt;he did not lie awake at night worrying&lt;/a&gt; about the prospect of a 70 million British population and that he enjoyed living in a multicultural society; but now we know this is just a lie to facilitate a far greater evil. Perhaps Mr Johnson’s attention should be drawn to the &lt;a href="http://www.hrweb.org/legal/genocide.html" target="_blank"&gt;UN’s definition of genocide&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;table border="0" cellpadding="2"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td colspan="3" style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" valign="top"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Article 2:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" valign="top"&gt;In the present convention genocide means any of the acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethical, racial or religious group, as such:&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" valign="top"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" valign="top"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" valign="top"&gt;[…]&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" valign="top" width="8%"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" valign="top"&gt;2c:&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="color: #741b47; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" valign="top"&gt;Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life, calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part… &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;table border="0" cellpadding="2"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="color: #073763; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" valign="top"&gt;&lt;span class="fullpost" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;Although the UN did not really draw up their charters with the best interests of white people in mind, that does not mean they can be ignored.

migrants from Asia and Africa into the EU, when our children are not only rapidly approaching an ethnically cleansed and ethnic minority status, but are also brainwashed into accepting the dispossession of their nationality, their territory and their culture, then perhaps a Hampstead Thinker could explain to me why it is “racist” to resist such a genocidal political policy, and why various UN Declarations quoted with enormous reverence when applied to the Palestinians and various other pets of the socialist elite are deemed inapplicable when it is the indigenous English who are the genuine victims of ethnic cleansing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But England of course is just a microcosm of what is a global phenomenon. The third world is booming and exporting its youth bulge to the first world, bringing with it a religion and a culture unsuited to democracy and peaceful co-existence. This can only lead to catastrophe for the indigenous populations. We have seen what happened after the Islamic takeover of majority Christian Lebanon; a 15 year religious civil war that took the lives of close to 10% of the population and wounded 33% — half of whom suffered from lifetime disabilities. So what exactly is the rationale behind importing Islam to the West?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Liberals tell us colonialism was evil, so why is the colonisation of white countries by non-white peoples  — in far greater numbers than whites were ever sent to non-white countries — a matter of celebration? In 2050 the streets of Pakistani and Bangladeshi cities will be thronged with Pakistanis and Bangladeshis; there will be no white people there, just as there will be no white people on the streets of London, Luton, Paris, Rotterdam, Brussels, Malmö, etc. etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Jean Raspail quote at the beginning of this article should not be taken lightly. Whites made up almost 30% of the global population in 1950, but by 2050 they will be down to single digits, and producing just 5% of the new-born. For a race of people with such a tenuous grasp of life on this unfriendly planet, to be forced into a minority within your own homeland, which is your only point of defence, is an act of criminality without precedence.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Reference&lt;span style="color: #9fc5e8;"&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b style="color: #9fc5e8;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://paulweston101.blogspot.com/2010/03/ethnic-cleansing-of-english_19.html#more"&gt;Paul Weston&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1345576064847731660-7540397979702992009?l=southendpatriot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/feeds/7540397979702992009/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1345576064847731660&amp;postID=7540397979702992009' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/7540397979702992009'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/7540397979702992009'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/2011/11/ethnically-cleansing-english-article-by.html' title=''/><author><name>Victor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01084637423160644775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-yM1A4rLdArY/TrUB1-LtMwI/AAAAAAAACsA/HQK2-KXodXw/s72-c/paulweston.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345576064847731660.post-7057128518609339504</id><published>2011-11-02T03:06:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-11-02T11:20:52.277-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0b5394; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Robots or Immigrants?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b class="highlight"&gt;J&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;apan&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;, like many other countries, is facing huge challenges in caring for its aging population.

text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;Dear Mr Cameron&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mass immigration is not a natural disaster akin to some tsunami, drought or earthquake that periodically and unpredictably overwhelms a country. Mass immigration is a purely man-made phenomenon which is encouraged openly or covertly by people who benefit from it economically or by people who for ideological reasons wish to see England looking like some failed Third-World state, Pakistan, for example.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mass immigration, especially mass non-white immigration, poses real dangers for the future of England. The idea that England can survive the mass, continual influx of hundreds of thousands of non-white immigrants is hideously naïve. As the white indigenous people of England are relentlessly displaced by the rapid and aggressive breeding of non-whites, the whole texture and nature of our towns and cities will be changed forever, is already changing, and, in some places, Bradford, Birmingham, whole swathes of London, have already changed for the worse.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I do not regard these huge, unprecedented changes, changes which were imposed on the white indigenous English without any consultation or any regard for England’s future, with no regard for the links to our past and heritage, as in any way beneficial. In every possible regard they are disastrous. As I have made clear to you before the changes brought about by mass, non-white immigration represent the racial, cultural, physical and psychological dispossession of the white indigenous English.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In what way, pray tell, do the indigenous English, especially those left in London, benefit from having their capital, my capital, overrun with non-whites? The short answer is that they do not benefit from being overrun by non-whites. They suffer from overcrowding, reduced quality in public services, noise, freakish behaviour, poor education provision as a consequence of schools overrun with immigrants, exceptionally high levels of crime and corruption and high taxes to pay for foreigners.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Moreover, they are daily bombarded with BBC and other state-sponsored propaganda that they should actually be grateful for all these non-white immigrants being here. Furthermore, should the white indigenous English protest about what is happening to their country, they will be vilified as something monstrous when in fact their opposition to being dispossessed is entirely rational and moral, in every way normal. What is not normal, what is perverse, what is most decidedly unnatural is that white politicians such as you Mr Cameron are actively encouraging hordes of non-whites currently resident in England, and others swarming across our borders, to overwhelm our country. Mass, non-white immigration has not delivered a single benefit at all to the white indigenous English.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your portrayal of the immigration debate as one dominated by extremes is itself extreme (and wrong) and designed to show you as the conciliator, the moderate with sensible proposals when in fact you have a long record of colluding with those who have sponsored mass non-white immigration. Some form of immigration subject to exceptionally tough controls is acceptable but the numbers involved should be very small indeed and it should be made clear that employment in England does not in any way imply a right to permanent residence. There are absolutely no benefits to be derived from the mass influx of unemployable Third-World immigrants. One of the main problems, especially with regard to Indian and Pakistani immigrants is the reliability of any qualifications. In the NHS this can literally be a matter of life and death or lead to operations which are bungled because they are carried out by incompetents. Remember Daniel Ubani, the Nigerian with a German passport? Ever heard of the Indian, Manjit Bhamra?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of the weak links in your immigration proposal is that you show no understanding of the race factor. Race and race differences matter and they cannot be made not to matter by government diktat. Nor can endless race relations laws and amendments deny the basic consequences of race and race differences. Large numbers of non-whites in a white country will always be a permanent source of tension and very often violence. We see the evidence for this all over the world. That for most of her history our England has been racially homogenous has been a great blessing. Racial diversity is a curse. As the number of non-whites increases, as it has done grotesquely over the last 30 years, so the racial, social and economic stresses become ever harder to hide or to deny. Blacks engaging in looting and rapine are just obvious and visible examples of how mass, non-white immigration has failed and how the white population bears the costs, economic, cultural and psychological.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Immigration is not just about the on-going immigrant threat to England it must also face the problem of those who have come here in large numbers and who have managed to secure a British passport. They have come here and wish to stay because they enjoy a standard of living in a First-World economy that would be impossible in Pakistan or Africa. If the numbers involved were exiguous and all further non-white immigration was almost impossible except for a highly-qualified and suitable few then all the legitimate fears and worries about immigration would disappear.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That the rational, logical, healthy and morally reasonable fears of the white English indigenous people with regard to mass, non-white immigration show no sign whatsoever of abating is because the problems associated with mass, non-white immigration – crime, corruption, child abuse, depraved honour killings and forced marriages violence, physical dispossession and overcrowding/overpopulation – are getting worse. On these trends the English will be reduced to a racial minority in their own country some time in this century. Do you really want that outcome for your children Mr Cameron? Immigration policy must therefore deal with two problems: one immediate; the other long term.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The threat posed to England by mass, non-white immigration is largely a consequence of immigrants exploiting legal instruments which oblige us to accept them. The obvious first step is to rescind all legislation that prevents or hinders the expulsion of immigrants. Your view, Mr Cameron, that ‘Britain will always be open to those who are seeking asylum from persecution’ is an outrageous proposition and one that has done so much to make it possible for immigrants to enter England under false pretences. It leaves us permanently vulnerable to events in other parts of the world over which we have no control but which when they lead to political collapse mean that we are obliged to permit hordes of so-called asylum seekers (criminals and illegal immigrants) to enter England and “enrich” us. This is something that must change if we are to have any chance of saving England. Leaving the EU must also be a very high priority.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The immediate problem is to prevent all further immigration. It must be a matter of the highest priority to hunt down, round up and to deport all illegal immigrants. If they have assets these can be seized to cover the costs of deportation. The next step is make it clear to non-whites currently resident in this country, especially blacks, that they shall not be permitted to enjoy any special status merely because they are non-whites. If large numbers of blacks are incarcerated, having been subjected to the due process of English law then that must be seen as an indication of a black predisposition to commit crime not some insidious racist plot as in the Marxist slander of institutional racism. Again, black educational failure reflects low mean black IQ – well documented – not a white conspiracy. Blacks will have to learn to live with their limitations. Whites are not responsible for black failure and the psychological terror aimed at whites, often by other whites, to make white society feel guilty for black failure should be dismissed out of hand.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The next step is to recognise that the welfare state has created a massive parasitic underclass. People who refuse to provide services in return for welfare handouts should be denied any money at all and housed in government hostels where they will receive basic survival provision and no more. This means a bed, basic food and a roof. For those who show willing there will be firmness but fairness and maybe at times some warmth. Those that riot can expect ruthless counter measures to restore order and discipline. Respect, dignity, status, self-esteem, a sense of achievement cannot be donated by charity: they have to be earned. The only politician in England who grasps these facts of life is Frank Field, a very honourable and decent man.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other measures some of which I noted earlier this year can also be taken. First, long term, every effort must be made to encourage large numbers of non-whites to return to their own countries. Generous financial benefits and inducements can be made to encourage repatriation. Second, under no circumstances must there ever be an amnesty for illegal immigrants. Third, under no circumstances will the creation of an independent Islamic/Muslim state ever be permitted within the territory of the United Kingdom. Fourth, the provisions of Sharia are grossly incompatible with the legal, political and cultural traditions of England and shall not be permitted. Fifth, family migration cannot be used as an excuse to bring relatives to this country. People who cannot bear to be separated from their families should not separate themselves from their wife (wives) in Pakistan. That these individuals are allegedly in search of a better life is an irrelevance, an emotional red herring, and imposes no obligation, moral or legal, on England to end this self-induced separation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you say - ‘immigration is not just about people coming to live here for a while. Some will want to settle and then join us as fellow British citizens…’- you ignore one very important consideration. Do I, as a white Englishman, want these people to join me? What happens when I emphatically do not want these people to join me? How can millions of non-white immigrants just ‘join me’? The answer is they cannot and they must not be encouraged to believe that they are welcome to ‘join us’. I do not want to have to endure the psychologically distressing sight of English cities overrun with immigrants. And it is not just the cities that face invasion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The next attack wave to hit white England, currently being planned by your government, is the calculated destruction and concreting of the countryside, including the Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONBs) and National Parks. The aim here is to impose thousands of non-white immigrants on areas which have so far escaped them. And when your party has managed to tear up the planning laws – not a perfect legal instrument by any means – and given the red light to rapacious developers, what will be the result?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The result will be hundreds of thousands of shoddy, high-density, anti-social housing units in the countryside. For the first time there is now the real risk that mosques, hitherto confined to cities, will appear in the countryside. It is a truly dreadful thought. The long term problems will be racial tension, soaring council taxes, more crime, certainly more violent crime and Third-World squalor in England’s ancient shires. And when hordes of blacks imported to Ludlow, Ripon, and why not Witney, as part of government policy, start to engage in a bit of looting and violence, because that is what they do in the hood, the liberals will explain this degenerate behaviour as arising from a lack of opportunities for ‘young black people’ in a market town: the rioters were alienated and misunderstood; it’s not the fault of the ‘young black people’. The final result of permitting the developers to run riot and to build these shanty towns will be the destruction of a priceless asset.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So Mr Cameron: it really is time to stop the talking, posing, the endless consulting and act.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yours sincerely&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Frank Ellis&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1345576064847731660-2672274376395757786?l=southendpatriot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/2672274376395757786'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/2672274376395757786'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/2011/10/response-to-camerons-october-2011.html' title=''/><author><name>Victor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01084637423160644775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-YuWa7O2fa_s/Tpwb3nLLi1I/AAAAAAAACp0/4cgXaQULdl0/s72-c/Cameron.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345576064847731660.post-6048052063501360129</id><published>2011-10-14T04:51:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-14T12:36:43.710-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color: #073763;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Southend English Democrats Branch Meeting&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The second meeting of the newly formed Southend branch of the English Democrats took place on Wednesday 12th October.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;The meeting was ably chaired by ED member Tony Gladwin&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_b3Eao2-Izk/TpZtg-akuXI/AAAAAAAACpU/BVQQPdHT19g/s1600/snapshot20111013053505.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="338" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_b3Eao2-Izk/TpZtg-akuXI/AAAAAAAACpU/BVQQPdHT19g/s400/snapshot20111013053505.bmp" width="450" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The first speaker was Stuart Freeman, the branch organiser&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BQrWQ0Nmgko/TpZrvkRrloI/AAAAAAAACpM/Z-n_2QOTp74/s1600/snapshot20111013052833.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="338" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BQrWQ0Nmgko/TpZrvkRrloI/AAAAAAAACpM/Z-n_2QOTp74/s400/snapshot20111013052833.bmp" width="450" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Stuart announced that 14 people have now come forward to stand as candidates for the party in next year's Southend Council elections.

It was started in response to the &lt;b&gt;1998 Scotland Act&lt;/b&gt; which established the devolved Scottish Parliament. The party was re-launched as the English Democrats in 2002 &lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;after merging with several other small political parties.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;From 2002 onwards, the party has made steady progress.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;The English Democrats' first national election campaign was the 2004 EU Election. &lt;/span&gt;This was the campaign which introduced the slogan, &lt;b&gt;"Not right, Not Left, Just English!"&lt;/b&gt;. ED candidates won 130,056 votes in total.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;In October 2004, the English Democrats  merged with the Reform UK Party, which Peter Davies was a member of.  This was a small splinter group from UKIP. Peter Davies became the English Democrats Mayor of Doncaster in 2009.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;The London mayoral election of 2008 saw the first English Democrats "Bill Boards" go up and the first English Democrats Party Election Broadcast.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;The party currently has 1 County Councillor, 5 Borough Councillors and an elected Mayor in Doncaster. There may also be a number of Parish Councillors.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;Some much needed funds were raised at the meeting to help finance our election campaigns. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-A66NkKD45tY/TpgfiKruxTI/AAAAAAAACps/Swd8_-5ajwY/s1600/flag+with+logo.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-A66NkKD45tY/TpgfiKruxTI/AAAAAAAACps/Swd8_-5ajwY/s1600/flag+with+logo.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1345576064847731660-6048052063501360129?l=southendpatriot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/6048052063501360129'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/6048052063501360129'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/2011/10/southend-english-democrats-branch.html' title=''/><author><name>Victor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01084637423160644775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_b3Eao2-Izk/TpZtg-akuXI/AAAAAAAACpU/BVQQPdHT19g/s72-c/snapshot20111013053505.bmp' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345576064847731660.post-3128751586659825131</id><published>2011-10-12T01:24:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-12T02:32:35.680-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b style="color: #073763;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;BBC Smear on the BNP? - not this time&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NXoffVJG_6M/TpVRt2HNy_I/AAAAAAAACo8/92XgEM4c1fk/s1600/BNP+Freak+Show.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="225" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NXoffVJG_6M/TpVRt2HNy_I/AAAAAAAACo8/92XgEM4c1fk/s400/BNP+Freak+Show.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Reference&lt;span style="color: #9fc5e8;"&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b style="color: #9fc5e8;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/312618l"&gt;Digital Journal&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Monday night, the BBC broadcast a half hour programme exposing corruption within the British National Party. For once, the Beeb didn't rely on smears and innuendo; for once, it didn't have to.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="body" style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is fair to say that since its inception, the British National Party has been the target of smears, innuendo, and at times hysteria of Salem witchcraft proportions. All manner of political opportunists  and racial agitators have built careers on hating and mobilising against the BNP with the hysterical mantras of “fight &lt;i&gt;racism&lt;/i&gt;”, “smash the&lt;i&gt; racists&lt;/i&gt;”, “Nazis out”, and so on, including people who have had no qualms about turning a blind eye to or even supporting the oppression of the Palestinians, the bombing of Iraq, and the torture and mass murder of innocent civilians.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The rise of the Internet as well as some limited success at the ballot box has made it impossible to totally suppress the BNP, and the lies and smears have at times been so blatant that they have actually assisted recruitment. Just when it looked as though the party might make some sort of breakthrough, its leaders have been caught with their hands in the till.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Monday night's BBC&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt; Panorama&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt; programme can currently be found &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b0161hqc/Panorama_BNP_The_Fraud_Exposed/" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;, but if you can't access it, look out for it on YouTube in the near future. Normally, BBC and similar smears on the BNP and other “far right” organisations rely on professional hatemongers and smear merchants like &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/310297" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Gerry Gable&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;, not this time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Apart from technical commentators, last night's programme used disgruntled former party members, activists and staff, and there are plenty of them, indeed there is enough material on the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://griffinwatch-nwn.blogspot.com/" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Griffinwatch&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt; blog and similar sites to produce a three or four hour programme had the Beeb been so inclined. The bottom line is that party leader &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/311074" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Nick Griffin&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt; has used the BNP as a vehicle for his personal financial aggrandisement. The allegations made were strong, but no one least of all Griffin will be suing for libel at the end of the day. How did it all go so wrong?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: transparent; border: medium none; color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The late Chris Tame, who was Britain's leading Libertarian until his death, could have formed a Libertarian Party but rejected the idea because at the end of the day, it is the dissemination of ideas that brings about political change, be it for good or bad. Even without the blatant financial corruption, parties like the BNP are doomed to failure, because the establishment rather than the street thugs and opportunists of the loony left will  never allow them to obtain even a simulacrum of power. Organisations such as the BNP would do better to disband - at least as political parties - and  concentrate on publishing, lobbying, and so on.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Leaving aside its racial policies - real and imagined, the BNP is or was one of the few political parties in Britain that recognise(d) the need for serious financial reform, in particular taking the power away from the banks. Nick Griffin and Andrew Brons were elected to the European Parliament in 2009, but instead of lobbying to bring about this necessary change they have been content to sit quietly in the chamber and collect their fat salaries augmented at times by some extremely creative expenses.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: transparent; border: medium none; color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;For years, decades, Griffin and his inner circle have complained about the financial corruption of the mainstream political parties; now these protests are exposed for what they were, not righteous indignation, but envy.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: transparent; border: medium none; color: black; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1345576064847731660-3128751586659825131?l=southendpatriot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/3128751586659825131'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1345576064847731660/posts/default/3128751586659825131'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://southendpatriot.blogspot.com/2011/10/bbc-smear-on-bnp-not-this-time.html' title=''/><author><name>Victor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01084637423160644775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NXoffVJG_6M/TpVRt2HNy_I/AAAAAAAACo8/92XgEM4c1fk/s72-c/BNP+Freak+Show.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1345576064847731660.post-1884649546230146328</id><published>2011-10-11T23:00:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-11T23:18:22.890-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="color: #073763; font-family: Times,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;"&gt;Chris Beverley's English Democrats Conference Speech&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Z0NljmGjCbU/TpUwj8S3wQI/AAAAAAAACos/ZwvwyAUAAsQ/s1600/chris+beverley.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="253" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Z0NljmGjCbU/TpUwj8S3wQI/AAAAAAAACos/ZwvwyAUAAsQ/s400/chris+beverley.jpg" width="450" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Reference&lt;span style="color: #9fc5e8;"&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b style="color: #9fc5e8;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://morleypatriot.blogspot.com/2011/10/my-conference-speech.html"&gt;Morley Patriot&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;I would like to begin by saying what a pleasure it is for me to be here today and what a privilege it is to not only be here but to have this opportunity to deliver this short speech to you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;I have only been a member of this party for about six months now but I can tell you that in that time I've had a sense of enthusiasm for politics that I haven't had for a long time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;It was a pleasure to stand as an English Democrat candidate in the elections in May. At the outset of the campaign in May we didn't have any money at all but we managed to scrape some together - we paid for leaflets ourselves, went to donors and local supporters, and got some money together and put in the best campaign that we possibly could across Leeds and we got some good votes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;In my own ward of Morley South I managed to get 20% of the vote there which I feel was a respectable vote for our first ever attempt at winning this ward for the English Democrats. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;(applause)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Whilst I may be new to this party that's not to say that I'm new to politics. I've been involved in nationalist politics my entire adult life. I first got involved when I was fifteen years old and I've been involved at an active level ever since.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;I've stood for election on many occasions over the years, from parish council level right up to European Election level, and my personal highlight I guess was probably getting elected back in 2006, when I was elected in Morley South to Leeds City Council, and I held the seat until 2010 when unfortunately I lost it despite actually getting more votes when I tried to defend the seat than I did when I was elected in 2006, but this is what can happen in politics unfortunately.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;So over the years my ideas and my ideology has evolved and changed and I am very grateful to Robin and the English Democrats for giving me an opportunity to join this party, and make a difference for this party, and I hope I have shown that it is possible for me to do that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;We all make mistakes in our lives and we all have ideas that we hold that we change over time, but I believe and have come to the realisation that the English Democrats' approach to politics is the only hope that our people have - it's their best hope. A sensible, moderate rational approach to patriotic politics is not only the approach which is the most strategically viable, it is also the only morally acceptable one as well.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The English Democrats, by opposing the extremism that is espoused by other parties, give our people our best hope. I endorse this approach completely and I oppose all forms of extremism.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;I believe that we have a fantastic opportunity to do great things with this party and I intend to do everything in my power to make sure that we do.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;(applause)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;No political party exists in a vacuum and I'm sure that it won't have escaped your attention that there is another political party -a rival party of ours out there - which is currently undergoing a process of self-destruction, as has been mentioned previously. And I'm talking of course about the British National Party, of which I used to be a member.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;This has led to a number of people voicing concerns in this party that we're set for a deluge of ex-BNP members who want to join the party, and take over it, and change it, and make it into something that looks and sounds like the BNP. I've spent a lot of time and many years in that organisation - I've seen that party at its best and at its worst. I know how that organisation works - this is something you can trust me on, I know what I'm talking about here. I can tell you that I honestly don' t think that there is going to be a deluge of ex-BNP members wanting to join this party.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Many of the BNP's activists will fall out of politics altogether as a result of the current problems in that party. In fact there is plenty of evidence to show that that is already happening. Others will go off and join splinter groups that have split off from the British National Party and continue to do so, and the lowest calibre of all will stick with Nick Griffin in the BNP or whatever micro-organisation that replaces the BNP. Only a fraction of those people leaving the BNP will be interested in the English Democrats - only a fraction.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The good news for us is that it is only the best people in that party that will have any interest in us. The most intelligent, rational, enlightened decent people - that's the good news for us.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;(Cheer in audience)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Yes obviously an ex-BNPer over there. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;(laughter)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Obviously I can tell you that we do not want to take over this party and make this party a BNP mark 2. I spent alot of years in that organisation and the last thing I want to do is to end up with a party that looks and sounds like the BNP, albeit one that is draped in the cross of Saint George rather than the union flag. Absolutely not. And we've got to bear in mind that you don't need to take my word for it, some people have joined this party who used to be in the BNP and have either come directly from that organisation or they were in that organisation some years ago and eventually ended up with us.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;These people have made a real contribution to our party - some of them are now proud English Democrat councillors , others stood in the elections in May and delivered some of the best votes that our party has ever got in the local elections. Others are here today. So this isn't just a theoretical thing, the people who have joined this party who used to be in the British National Party have made a good contribution.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Now, we're talking about the BNP here. Nick Griffin despises the English Democrats. He is doing everything in his power at present to attack this party and he is doing it in two ways. One way is the frontal assault if you like and he is obsessed with trying to smear our chairman Robin Tilbrook and other senior members but he and his henchmen are also involved in far more devious ways to try and destabilise our party.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;One such way is trying to find people in this party who will listen to what their poison-mongers say on the internet forums and suchlike, and try to get them to turn against the idea of people joining from the BNP or turn against those of us who are proud members of this party who at some point in the past were members of the BNP. And I think that Robin slightly alluded to this earlier in his discussion of The Art of War. Now I'm not suggesting for one second that Nick Griffin sits there with his henchmen reading ancient translated documents like Sun Tzu perhaps one week, next week sitting there discussing Plato. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;(laughter) &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;I'm not suggesting for a second that this type of thing happens but it is a danger, and we are seeing the effects of that to a very small extent. Now I'm sure the people in this room are far too intelligent and astute to fall for that type of thing but it must be taken into consideration that the BNP and Nick Griffin do hate this party and any rumours that are spread by his henchmen about those of us who are currently involved should be take with a pinch of salt at best.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;So my speech today has been purely about the BNP really, I wouldn't have chosen to speak about this subject but I did for two reasons. One was that I was asked to by Robin, but the other reason was that there is a debate going on in the party about how people should be treated who want to join this party from the BNP and I feel that I do have a perspective that is worth sharing with you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Personally I would rather have spoken about something else. I've moved on in my life and when I look at the BNP now I find it hard to believe that I was ever even a member to be quite honest but clearly the next few months are going to be interesting from this point of view.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;So I hope that I have allayed some concerns and demonstrated that people who join this organisation, providing it's done correctly and through the correct channels in the correct way, that this can actually be of benefit to our party.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;With the exception of Eddy Butler who is a good friend of mine, and the leading expert in the field of elections, and also a leading moderate I have to say, he has always been far more moderate than most of his peers in nationalism and would be far more at home in this party than in the BNP, so with the exception of Eddy Butler I can say quite honestly that I don't expect any national figures, nationally recognised figures from the BNP to want to join this party.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;I don't think there is going to be any sort of deluge of high profile people I think the vast majority of those who want to join the party will simply be local activists who came to the same conclusions that I did some time ago and thought I really am in the wrong party here and wasting my time and the English Democrats are a far far better more suitable party which represents my beliefs better. These are the type of people who are going to be wanting to join and these are the type of people who I am sure will make a contribution to this party.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;These people who get involved will go about their business in their local areas distributing leaflets and campaigning for the English Democrats and they will do it with a fresh spring in their step and great enthusiasm and I know that they will do this because this is exactly how I feel. I feel like that when I am out campaigning in Barnsley as I was in support of our candidate earlier this week and will be tomorrow and I am sure I will be there on many other occasions between now and election day because it's just feels so good to be in a party like this with such potential which is clearly going somewhere and it feels good to be able to make a contribution to that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;To me the English Democrats represent everything that is good about England. Free Speech and robust debate - which we've seen to some degree today already - civility, candour, these are the things which make England great and these are the things that make this party great.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;Now as much as I respect Robin as someone who is of obvious high calibre and dedication, it nevertheless pleases me when I hear about him getting a roasting at national council meetings over some issue of other because this shows that this is a truly democratic party - truly democratic - and that is what we need. The English people don't tolerate dictators and tyrants - our history has shown that time and time again. And it's a relief and a pleasure to be in a party that is truly democratic and not one that is held hostage to the whims of its leader. I'm not suggesting that you have any particular whims that you want to hold us hostage with Robin (laughter).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;I'll conclude by saying that I really appreciate the welcome that people have given me in the English Democrats and I hope that will be extended to all the sensible good people who want to join this party and who do so through the proper channels and I would ask you to give them the chance that you gave me and I'm sure that they can make a real difference.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;This party has such huge potential, such huge potential. Just take the issues of making Saint George's Day a bank holiday and the creation of an English Parliament, two of our cornerstone issues. These are things which there is huge support for our there in the population at large and this is just increasing with every passing year. And these are issues which we own - these are our issues. Other parties will come along and jump on the bandwagon and copy these issues but the English people are not stupid.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;The English people realise that we're the people that put these items on the agenda and we are the party that needs to capitalise on them. I'm going to work tirelessly for this party. I want to build us up so that we have got a presence in every town and every village in this country because that's what we need to do.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"&gt;When I look around at this conference today, and I see how the party does things, it is clear to me that we have got very very solid and sturdy foundations in this organisation. What we n
