Immigration goes beyond ascertaining the 'right' levels of poeple admitted to the country. It goes straight to the heart of what 'Britain' represents to the natives who are still in the majority. Most citizens believe that there must be something seriously askew in the land that brought us Magna Carta, Locke, Hume., JS Mill and Chris Hitchens when citizens are being woken by police in the middle of the night because they expressed an opinion which may cause 'some people' - we all know who - to be upset. When the mayor of Birmingham effectively outlaws Jews from coming to his city and when British people are scared to let their children out because of immigrant gangs. Toynbee, Spengler, Gibbon and innumerable other historians have demonstrated that a civilization that tries to accommodate multiple cultures only ever collapses into poverty and civil war. Yet, British Labour are too scared of being called out at dinner parties to implement meaningful policies.
Everyone else in the world can see it. Why can't Labour see past its ideological blinders and act in the best interests of the country, not the best interests of potential refugees?
Neema Parvini’s book ‘The Prophets of Doom’ is a good account of a ‘cyclical’ version of history versus the linear, progressive view that has prevailed in all liberal circles.
