'Modern racism'......Wow, just wow.

English culture might be influenced by foreign aspects.....That's not the problem. It does not stop a person being English.

Modern day Japan and China have foreign influences that they chose to follow. So does Eastern Europe. It does not stop them calling themselves Japanese or whatever and following the customs and rituals and language of their culture.

People in foreign lands with no multicultural problems at all watch TVs made in foreign lands and all the rest of it.....You made a massive non point.

To have a culture be dominant you require a large majority of the people living there to have allegiance to that country.....hence they live that country's culture....not the culture of a foreign land....or coming out with diluted allegiance which is reality is no allegiance at all.

This is not a difficult idea......No one goes to Japan and says, 'what is Japanese culture' in the fashion of stating that it doesn't exist or is a figment of imagination.....If they did they would be laughed at.

So does China or Japan have lost relevance in the world then?....Are Africans not proud of their identity then?

Absolute BS.

When was the last time you started a thread?

Oh yes, because its not like the people of this island dont already almost entirely have Gallic, Nordic, Gaelic blood from other countries and ethnicities. But i know what you mean. You mean white. The people may have always been divided and opressed in the past, but at least they all shared my skin hue and general crazy religion, unlike all these brown and black people who believe in the same fairytale god as us, but through a different prophet's words.

The Bible lists as a culinary commandment that humans are forbidden to eat griffin. Think about that the next time you argue that it's the koran which has created a culture out of touch with reality.

If punk ever happened I'd be preaching the law, instead of listenin to Lydon lecture BBC4

That is not true. The majority of genes in Britain are from settlers who arrived here shortly after the Ice Age. Furthermore, the people who came here from Scandinavia were almost indiscernible from Angles, Saxons and not much different to so called Celts. They don't actually exist as a group by the way. Those peoples came here in small amounts, a few thousands at most.
The idea that you can compare any of that to today's vast immigration numbers is so daft.
why do people like you persist with this nonsense?

Religion was no longer a driving force for the vast majority of Britons. We rid ourselves of the cancerous influence of the Vatican and now you think we should just lie down and accept the backward absurdity of Islam or any other daft power hungry religion?

I don't think so.

So I haven't seen NF or swastikas in public for at least 25 years.
Did you see some recently then as the way you wrote that line by saying not as much means you must be seeing them less regularly.
How regularly serial as one liners like that are believed and used as argument.

For starters, humans did not descend from chimps so their similarity is irrelevant. Schoolboy error. We share genes with every species on Earth. Humans are only a few genes different from a worm.
We are discussing human migration and the genetic and cultural influence thereof, so keep it sensible.
The population is bigger for sure but the arrival of a town's worth of people every year is unprecedented and has a much greater effect historically than anything before other than a military invasion. Your determination to avoid noticing how Britain has changed drastically in the last 50 years is funny and merely highlights your desire to place ideological nonsense in front of reality.
You also fail to recall how well immigration has gone in the past. Genocide, civil war, religious persecution division of communities and unrest that exists to this day in Ireland.

There is no reason at all to welcome mass immigration.
Of course, some migrants just settle down and get on with life but too many don't. Aggressive religion, crime, welfare state abuse and sectarianism always follow along behind.
