Enoch Powell was a very wise man, I wish the people had listened to him. I've said it before and I'll say it again Multiculturalism was and is never going to work, sad but true. Maybe off topic a bit but at one time the Spanish welcomed the Brits who went to live in their country but now the young people of Spain are resenting the Brits being there. I lived in Spain for 2 years and saw how the Brits had their own large communities, few chose to live among the Spanish. If we all lived in our own countries there wouldn't be half as much fighting and hatred that goes on but of course we all know people move to different countries to try better their lives and some people are fleeing their own countries to get away from danger. What is the answer? I have no idea. I wish we could all live side by side in peace as people but religious beliefs gets in the way of peace. Quite ridiculous really considering God is supposed to be about peace.

Why would anyone want to listen to Hopkins. I'm all for uncensored speech but when all she has to offer is racism, there's no point taking any notice of her. This vile woman has made her fortune, for at least a good nine years, trolling newspaper columns with unbridled bigotry and we are supposed to take notice of what she has to say?!?

Where is the racism on this forum? And why aren't the mods doing anything about it?

Because it's all in your head, it's like you want it to be true.

The only people who talk about race, is the lefties. Everyone else is just waiting for them to stop talking about it, so we can move on.

Yawn at the ever present 'R word' being thrown about.It was the same with the brexit debate.
Racists are a very small minority.Most of us have grown up and gone to school with and got along fine with people of all races.
It is not racist to be against a backwards and still primitive religion or have it take over large sections of our cities.Which it is and that is undeniable.I can walk to more than one of these areas from my front door within fifteen minutes.There are areas where it is inadvisable for white people to walk through.This is not fantasy,This is the cold hard truth.Why should we have accept this and remain silent or be called racist?

The constant use of that word is an intimidation tactic and, at the end of the day, says more about the person throwing it around than those they attempt to label.

It is boring but what it won't do is shut down opinions - try as they might.

An intimidation tactic? Why would it be intimidating?

You've accused me of sexism repeatedly and I've never been intimidated by it because I'm not sexist and the suggestion that I am is ridiculous. If someone accuses you of something that isn't true then stand your ground and explain why they are wrong.

I could only imagine someone feeling intimidated by being called a racist if it's true.

Did I say it worked - I was clearly stating the opposite. It was the intention of those using it I was clearly referring to.

Isis are recruiting daily, more and more becoming extremists, none of us can see into the future, we can all only speculate.
I find those stats a bit difficult to believe, especially in a Yorkshire area.

If you wish to fear the impossible then you are free to do so, it doesn't make it any more likely of happening. Like I said before, it's impossible for an extremist section of Islam to take hold in the UK and become a majority and nothing is going to change that. When you understand how population growth. government and the process of changing legislation, laws and political systems work you'll see that there's nothing to fear.

As I said before, if you think you are at any risk of becoming a minority and somehow being forced into Islam by extremists then you may as well check the moon every night to see if it's fallen out of the sky because the odds of those events happening are pretty much the same.

So whenever you accuse me of sexism you're trying to intimidate me into silence?

Yep and it is ironic that the only people i've ever been racially abused by were muslims.Never experienced it from any other groups.

Racism doesn't actually exist. There is no such thing as racism. Also, everyone is actually nice all of the time. Another -ism that doesn't exist is sarcism. So there's that.

I never thought I would agree with Hopkins on anything, but the "reclaiming the bridge" stuff was very cringey and totally inappropriate given people had died there just a day earlier, people taking selfies and shouting we are not afraid, it was all a bit tasteless really.

There's a picture going around Facebook, of the damage done to London during the IRA bombing. It says something like, 'we didn't can all Irish or Catholic folks after this, and we're not going to do it now'. Makes perfect sense to me.

Yeah tbf that's not entirely true DR, even back in the late 90's when I was over in London I used to get some comments etc directed at me/being Irish so i can only imagine it was even worse back in the 70's/80's

I think people like to remember things a bit more rose tinted

I remember reading an article after 9/11 saying Muslims are the new Irish in Britain and its so true, people have forgotton how badly the Irish were treated during the Troubles, it's only in recent years the BNP took the Irish off their leafleting campaigns

Find it absolutely cringeworthy when White people express fear of becoming a Minority in Western Countries. This country could just about accept an ethnic minority London Mayor, The majority of the country voted for Brexit and won with their main and only objective being to stop the bloody immigrants and yet we are suppose to take those fears seriously? My uncle on my Mother side is the absolute worst with it too.
