True Believer


                                                   What's not to like?



David Cameron has an exciting new initiative to deal with the hordes of migrants currently flooding into Europe. During talks with the Italian prime minister about proposals to distribute 60,000 of the incomers throughout EU member states our PM called for the creation of a new European intelligence unit to track down the people-trafficking gangs responsible for smuggling the migrants across the Mediterranean.

Wow. That will be a vote winner. Right up to the time when the new spooks reveal the identity of the shadowy traffickers. They are us. They are the Royal Navy, the Italian Navy, and just about every other EU navy. We are transporting the migrants across a sea we totally control free of charge. It’s true that more shadowy entities are ferrying the multitude out to our ships just off the African coast for exorbitant prices. But from then on out it’s us.

So what the hell is Cameron on about with his new task force. Well, in a few  days he will be announcing that he’s agreed to take “Britain’s fair share of the desperate refugees” and so he’s clutching at straws to think of something, anything, that will sugar-coat the pill when he does. He obviously thinks that we are stupid enough to fall for it. But on the other hand the BBC and most of the media will have his back and if past experience is any guide the good old British public will sigh and let it go. After all what’s a couple more tens of thousands of immigrants on top of the 641,000 Britain accepted in 2014. There may be an ISIS plant or two or fifty among all those brain surgeons but then again we already have plenty of home grown IslamoFascist looney tunes of our own.

So in fact, we really are that dumb.

It’s a common beef about politicians that they are cynical careerists who believe in nothing. And David Cameron, the former PR man, seems to provide the best example of the type. After all he became leader through an outrageously deceitful speech and has been caught out lying so often that people assume that because he obviously doesn’t believe in conservative principles that he doesn’t have any at all.

But sadly this is wrong. If only the British PM was a total cynic. If only he’d sell his own mother for the prospect of a few more votes. Then with one eye on public opinion, he might occasionally do the right thing. You could show him a few polls and point out how his own interests would be best served by doing what the people want for a change. But no, David Cameron along with most people in positions of authority in Britain is a true believer in progressive liberalism.

Only once between 2011 and 2015 did the Conservatives lead Labour in the opinion polls. In December 2011 Cameron pretended to veto an EU treaty and  his party immediately jumped from around 35% where it had languished to the low 40s, which is the level of support that won Margaret Thatcher three overwhelming election victories.  It was a small taste of the popularity which would be catnip to any self-respecting, baby-kissing-shyster politico. But not to our boy Cameron. You see the BBC and Guardian didn’t approve of his insolence to our Euro Nanny and they left him in no doubt of their contempt for his stand. And Cameron for his part couldn’t bear to think that they might actually believe that he meant to veto an EU treaty . Couldn’t they see that he was merely pandering to the "swivel-eyed loons" that voted for him?

Yes, Dave, they could. They were just making sure you stayed on the reservation.

Then when the British people realised just how full of shit Cameron really was, the Conservatives slumped back to the low 30s for the next three years and only recovered slightly with the terrible prospect of Miliband as prime minister.

But the best illustration of the strength of Cameron’s faith in this leftist creed is what he does on immigration. For years opinion polls have consistently indicated around 60% support for cutting immigration. Once again a heaven sent opportunity for a Conservative prime minister to be true to his beliefs and be popular at the same time. Especially when his two main opponents are 100% committed to flooding the country with millions of new leftie voters. But despite Cameron’s “no ifs, no buts” pledge to reduce net immigration to “tens of thousands” both net and gross immigration have now reached record levels even exceeding the influx under Labour’s immigration policy equivalent of announcing a trash-the-house-party on Facebook. Since 2002 there have been more than a half a million new arrivals every year. That’s more than 5 million every decade. The results are now everywhere to be seen across the UK. Almost 1 in 5 of Britain’s primary school children speak English as a second language and 1 in 3 are from an ethnic minority. The resulting fall in standards is the least of our problems.

And Cameron’s failure to achieve his stated goal is not down to his attachment to the EU and its enshrined right of free movement of people. This is clear from the fact that while 268,000 people settled from EU countries last year, fully 290,000  came from the rest of the world. So the excuse of our EU membership making immigration control impossible doesn’t hold water. If Cameron had restricted non-EU immigration which we are still free to do he could have hit his target for keeping net immigration in the tens of thousands. And because most of the remaining immigrants would share our European heritage there would be much less trouble with assimilating them and their children.

Two stories from very different sources illustrate both the exasperation of the British people with the demographic transformation of their country on the one hand and the elitist ideology that makes it possible on the other.

The first is from the Daily Mail regarded by most lefties as the modern equivalent of Der Stürmer. The article is about the free ferry service to Europe provided to 700 migrants by the Royal Navy. The headline: “The Royal Navy Saved My Life” gives a clue to the angle the Mail is going to take on a story that is when all is said and done about illegal immigrants who have paid people traffickers large sums of money to get them in the EU. But if you still cherished any belief in the Mail’s reactionary credentials the first sentence which manages to include “huddled” “desperate” “rescued” and “saved” leaves you in no doubt that you’re about to be subjected to yet another cloying wallow in white guilt. So much for those neo-Nazi lick-spittles at the Mail.

Their readers by contrast are fit to be tied. The most restrained of the “Best rated” comments very reasonably asked why the Royal Navy hadn’t returned them to Libya, while the less restrained wondered why they bother carrying guns and missiles anymore. But that’s just the slavering nutjobs who read the Mail. Surely Guardian Readers are a bit more receptive to the old white-guilt one two?

But apparently not. A few days ago the Guardian covered: “The largest protest staged against Britain’s most notorious immigration removal centre" and breathlessly told its readers how  "campaigners denounced Yarl’s Wood as an ‘abomination’ that should be closed immediately”. You get the idea. The detention centre is the modern equivalent of Belsen that must be expunged from the face of the earth if we are ever to be able to look at ourselves in the mirror again. There followed quotes from the usual luvvies, feminists, Trots and wackos who raved about the injustice of detaining people who’ve broken the law. Apparently the demonstration “had a carnival feel with the crowd singing loudly enough to ensure the detainees could hear them”. Curiously enough the Guardian journo seemed blissfully unaware that the inmates hearing that singing was just about the only hope that we have of seeing them volunteer to go home. But generally Guardian readers love all that hippy stuff. It makes them feel deep, interesting and caring all at the same time.

But get this. Not even the Guardian readers were buying it. A lone voice wondered if he had fallen into the “Daily Fail” comments section.  But all the other high rated comments were as frustrated as those in the Daily Mail. The most popular I saw is worth repeating in full:

If you’re seriously inconvenienced by the existence of Jarls Wood, then this is what to do …
Ask the Home Office to let you have one or more detainees.
Accommodate them in your home.
Pander to their requests for diet, prayer rooms, etc.
Pay for their education and health care.
If still not satisfied, give them your home and move into your gamekeeper’s cottage.
Remember to read them their “human rights” each day.
If they are still unhappy and disappear, pay £100,000 to the Border Agency to cover part of the expense of returning them.


A couple of things are obvious from reading those articles. First all sorts of people in Britain are mad as hell about mass immigration transforming their country. And second, not only are they totally  unrepresented in parliament, they can’t even find a newspaper that reflects their views. In a functioning democracy that should be impossible. Now despite all the lying and dirty deals Britain is still a functioning democracy, just. So what’s wrong?

It’s all about the incredible success of a political philosophy. The vast majority of our elites are utterly convinced that when they do the liberal progressive thing they are not only doing the modern thing, but they are also doing the moral thing and even the rational thing. And so in thrall to this ideology are they, that they’re not going to let a little thing like the disastrous reality of modern Britain change their minds. 
                        
That’s why Dave doesn’t do what would be wildly popular for his party and might still even at this late stage save his country.

Dave along with just about everybody who counts in Britain is a liberal progressive. And sadly for the rest of us Dave’s a true believer.

  2. another superb article on the coming demographic destruction of England. One in three children of ethnic origin means that future population of England will be.at the very least .on www.enzaferrei.blogspot.com it says France will be 40 per cent Muslim by 2030. What we are witnessing is the suicide of the west. There must be an explanation as to why this is intentionally being done to Western Europe. I just do not know what it is.

    1. I also believe that all this immigration is an intentional agenda by the EU and EU governments. I have researched this and you can read up on the NWO and the Kalergi Plan. It all starts to make sense then. You will then realise that they are trying to phase out indigenous people from EU countries. Also, it seems that all the unrest in the Middle East was perhaps planned. Sadam and Gadafi kept these Islamists down and yet the Western Governments wanted these leaders out of the way.
