Identity of Britain facing threat
Thursday 7th September 2006, 12:01PM BST.
, the sadness in the eyes of the old soldiers as they march in Whitehall every November, as they remember friends and colleagues who did not make it to join them in order to protect this land of ours.
I, with a large number of other people, ask why are we letting our country be taken over by stealth, under politically correct statements about multi-racial and European passports?
I cannot remember any party manifesto stating that any elected party would sit by and watch this fine country lose its identity. After all, is this not one of the issues of the Middle East – countries fighting to keep their identities?
I am British and proud of it. Those that are a guest of this country or those who have been issued with British passports should abide by our laws, not demand single-faith schools. What’s multi-cultural about that, and who pays for it – Joe British Public. If you don’t like it, get out.
My last point is that with over three million unemployed, the Government says we need immigrant labour to fill job vacancies. Come on – zero unemployed and I would buy it.
