It's funny that you say mass migration WILL affect me. have you ever thought that maybe it already has? and maybe, just maybe i don't mind living around people who were born somewhere else? in fact, i like it quite a bit. I come from a city that is very immigrant based. Over %50 of Toronto's population was not born in Toronto. Almost %20 of my country is immigrant (England 8%). So, I'm living this nightmare you describe, and, well, it's not so bad. In fact, I quite like it here. My happy-happy fantasy. I suppose you fancy flirting with "National Parties". But sir, there is also a very slippery slope on that side that can lead to absolutely terrible consequences. Should I cite, as an example, a particular "National" party, born in recession from the 20's? Nah. I never said I favored mass immigration, just immigration. Of course, it has to be measured against infrastructure! So, you had a government that went too far. It happens. But the solution is not the BNP - that is a hornets nest with a terrible sting. It is in a tightening of policy for breathing space, repair, and restructuring. And, so you know, lots of music jobs are taken by immigrants here - including quite a few brits (like my boss). Should I hate them for being good at what they do? Frankly, I'm glad they are here! Many of my close friends are British born. I mean, do you think all of the immigration is "working class"? What about those smart Canucks you have stolen? ![]() (That is too bad about the Sharia, but keep up the fight. It was tossed out here, and, could very easily be tossed out there.) But, here is my beef with you - you continue to use labels with strange floating references. You devilishly skirt around direct name calling. But, if I am not mistaken, here is what you think I am: well-heeled and smug - note: you have obviously never seen my shoes! Despiser of the "working class" (??) note: how is this measured? I think I might be one of those self-righteous (ok, i might be that a bit. but i bow to you in this regard) that i think the world is a human safari park - what a disgusting notion that YOU thought up a "so-called-liberal-left" idiot - note: you be doing all the calling i live in a fantasy - well, sure, to a degree. don't we all? and finally, that you hope some kind of retribution is enacted against me. like, unemployment, or racial violence, or whatever it is you think is appropriate. how sweet of you! well, chippy, is this true? Btw, I dare you, just dare you to respond without using the words Liberal, Class, Right, and Left. Can you do it?

But, doesn't matter what country, I do not condone racism. So therefore, I don't like the BNP. I think they would do terrible things if they gained power. Perhaps aspects of their platform are worthwhile, but not under their pure race, nationalist mission statement. And what is this constant ranting about open minds? Am I supposed to be open to racist ideology? No thanks. Perhaps I don't know much about your countries laws, but I have met dozens...no...hundreds of British people. Some are very close friends, and indeed family who fought for England in WWII. I have some of the inside scoop, but more from the personal level, not political.
