I Wonder Who They'll be Voting For?

"The number of immigrants granted British citizenship has more than quadrupled since Labour came to power, latest figures show.

The number of successful applications for citizenship rose by 15pc last year to 161,780 - an increase of 337pc on the 1997 figure of 37,010."

Is it any wonder that the Labour Government doesn't want a debate on the positive effect of managed immigration. Its current policy of extemporisation actively encourages obsquious immigrants to vote Labour. The Labour Government may lose votes where competition for resources is at its acutest, but why worry when you can import voters from abroad to replace this loss.

Rights But No Responsibilities

British Values Classes Considered

What sort of British values will be taught? Tolerance of intolerance? The right to legal aid? Welfare dependency? The right not to be offended?

Instead of teaching meaningless generalisations, we should be actively teaching British history in its broadest sense. But why should we expect immigrants to integrate into our society when we actively denegrate and dismiss our own history? Without a shared history a cohesive society is unobtainable. The ineluctable result is the further balkanisation of Great Britain.

A Parasitic Relationship

Southern Cash Buys Northern Votes

"A widening North-South divide has been exposed by a YouGov poll for The Daily Telegraph that shows the Tories are piling up votes in London and the Home Counties while failing to make any significant inroads north of the Trent. The result of a north-south divide with the Tories controlling the South and Labour the North could have servere constituional consequences."

The reason for this electoral dispartity is the contrasting attitudes to taxation and public spending in different regions:

"Public spending in parts of the North accounts for almost 60 per cent of the economy - a level of intervention as high as in some old communist states - compared to just 30 per cent in the South."

Labour's vote is then cemented in areas where the economy depends on high public spending, whereas the Tories are supported in areas that pay more in taxes but feel they get less back from central government. As I have stated before, this is a systematic attempt by the Labour party to create an effective client state that will ensure it remains in power for the foreseeable future.
