Strange Email

Political Correctness

We tend to receive all sorts of rubbish in our e-mail inboxes, we set our filters to detect and delete the "spam" and the "phishers" but now and then amongst the "forwards" something arrives that strikes a chord!
I make no bones about my right of centre viewpoints, some of which may be described as radical, but I am no xenophoebic neo-nazi cyber warrior by any means. Many of my views are shared by millions of people in this country who have rejected the strident reforms of the more extreme leftists over the years.
I received the following e-mail today with the invitation to forward it to as many people as possible; the views expressed in the e-mail are those of the author and they have already been published nationally in a number of forms. These views are probably held by a large proportion of the socalled "silent majority", but it takes the courage of a strong minded individual to put pen to paper.
I had no problems in analysing the simple messages that it sends out - immigration requires integration, multicuturalism requires acceptance and toleration from the multitudes (it's a two way street), acceptance of the newcomers requires an acceptance of the indigenous population (and both must move towards each other to build bridges), without accepting these principles there is no chance that a multicultural society can flourish to it's full potential. We still require immigration to fill skill shortages in our economy, but we must all work to ensure that the fragmentation of our society does not continue at it's present rate.
This is the e-mail that was forwarded to me;

The Right to Leave

United Kingdom - The Right to Leave Our Country - YOU, the immigrants, have the right - the right to leave !

After many cities not wanting to offend other cultures by putting up Xmas lights, and after hearing that the Birmingham City Council changed its opinion and let a Muslim woman have her picture on her driver's license with her face covered!!!!!
This was the final straw in many bureaucratic changes of gross stupidity over the past few years & prompted this editorial, written by a UK citizen, to be published in a British tabloid newspaper.

IMMIGRANTS, NOT BRITON'S, MUST ADAPT. Take it Or leave it.
I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on London, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Brits.

However, the dust from the attacks has barely settled and the "politically correct" crowd began complaining about the possibility that our patriotism is offending others. I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against anyone who is honourably seeking a better life by coming to Britain.

However, there are a few things that those who have recently come to our country, and apparently some born here, need to understand.

The idea of London being a multicultural community has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our national identity. As Britons, we have our own culture, our own society, our own language and our own lifestyle.

This culture has been developed over centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom.

We speak ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, Learn the Language!

"In God We Trust" is our National Motto. This is not some Christian, right wing, political slogan. We adopted this motto because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, Because God is part of our culture.

If St George's cross offends you, then you should seriously consider a move to another part of this planet.

We are happy with our culture and have no desire to change. Try to understand, we really don't care how you did things where you came from.

This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and if you are prepared to integrate honourably, we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this.

But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our National Motto or our way of life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great British freedom,
"THE RIGHT TO LEAVE".

If you aren't happy here then go!! We didn't force you to come here.
Remember, YOU asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted. Pretty easy really, when you think about it.

I figure if we all keep passing this to our friends (and enemies) it will also, sooner or later get back to the complainers, lets all try, please.
No matter how many times you receive it... please forward it to all you know.
