Immigration Issues

How immigration has affected the UK

Just as British government ministers have stated that it is fair to question the impact on society in Britain by immigration that is effectively "wide open", it is fair to question a similar issue - whether or not the so-called "War on Terror" has increased "western" society's sense of "white dominance", whether the so-called war has also stunted, even reversed efforts to produce gender equality in Britain, and race-equality - whether the norm of being abusive towards women and foreigners and, of course, in a big way, homosexual men and women, has suffered a huge blow due to the very defensively hostile attitude of mainstream society towards what is 'normal'.

Amongst the key problems enhanced by the aggressive right-wing-policy-driven international "war" against people who seem largely to be either non-white, muslim or both, are: chauvinism, anti-semitism, islampophobia, religious hatred of gay people, economic slavery inside and outside the west - different types of economic slavery.

There are also a lot of other big problems in the world - such as the overload of consumerism, and the environmental damage our societies are all producing - but these questions about whether western people have a lot of pro-white racism which needs to be eradicated (as exemplified by a Conservative party member this week declaring that Enoch Powell "was right" - and the local party backing him up and saying that a lot of people in the area share the view) must be dealt with urgently, above all by the society it damages most - white British people.
