Re:      Response to the question: Are you tempted to vote for the BNP?

Dear Vanessa,
 
I won't, but am tempted to vote for the British National Party - not because I like them (I don't), but as a protest at the unwillingness of the major political parties to address (or even allow free and open discussion of) concerns relating to mass immigration and multicultural society, which are transforming this country beyond recognition.
 
When I visited my old primary school a little while ago, which I attended in the 1950's, I had a job picking out the odd white face among the crowds of children in the playground. It left me feeling confused, sad and then angry - not at the children or their parents (who I don't blame for taking advantage of the opportunities offered to them), but at the British politicians and those in the media (not least at the BBC) who have allowed and encouraged this to happen, while suppressing all objections by branding them "racist".
 
Accuse me of being "xenophobic, if you like, but xenophobia is the flip side of a single coin, on the other side of which is "the love of things familiar ". I don't hate other races or cultures, or consider them inferior to my own - so I'm NOT a "racist", but I do care far more for my own, because they are mine, and were 1000's of years  (in the case of race, 10's of 1000's of years) in the making.
 
If I walk down my old high street, where 90 plus percent of the people are now non-Europeans, I'm an ethnic minority in my own country and feel like a foreigner. I'm sure they are nice people (probably nicer than most white people), but they are not MY people. The idea that the possession of a British passport somehow unites us all as Britons is something that I (and very many others) simply do not FEEL.
 
We have had mass immigration and the resulting multicultural society forced on us by the ideology of an intellectual elite (partly as an overreaction to Nazi crimes and greatly facilitate my economic forces), just as medieval society had Christian theology forced on it, and the former Soviet Union Communism. All imposed their will, not by democratic meansusing fair and rational argument, but by condemning and damning their opponents as heretics, reactionaries and now, "racists".
 
We need to start talking honestly and openly (without the threat of being branded a "racist") about immigration and multiracial/multicultural society, before the suppressed anger breaks through and there is a massive and irrational reaction (perhaps led by the BNP) against it.
