We only have your word for the fact that that is how society will evolve. Isn’t it equally as feasible that society will become more fragmented with the introduction of lots of people who not only don’t want to integrate but actively expect the indigenous population to adapt to accept their demands. We cannot just sit back and wait for things to happen. We need to be pro-active and control the agenda so we steer things to the conclusions we want. What we cannot do is turn back time. We are where we are. Now we need to decide where we want to be and how to get there. Which is why I want to remove all religion from all schools and public places and replace it with a drive to ensure all citizens first respect and then love our country and our culture. We need to make sure that happens, but not through force, as that never works, but through involvement and education.
For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally. |

When I first moved to the USA a few year's back. I got chatting to a guy who could barely disguise his contempt for the English, proudly claiming he was of 'Cornish American heritage' A well known phenomenon is that expats develop an idealised image of ‘the old country ‘. It rarely reflects the true situation when they left and just doesn’t keep up with the rapid pace of change in their country of origin. So the US sponsors terrorism in the island of Ireland and the UK terrorism in Sri Lanka.

You don’t live in Croydon do you?

I live here and most of my friends are Cornish. No-one I know has the slightest issue with the incomers. They know full well that the retirees who come here bring work with them. They support the building industry and, of course, the general economy. House prices have not so much gone up as house building has increased. I know a few local Mebyon Kernow councillors and get along well with them. They understand what benefits the incomers make to the local economy. You will always get the local windup merchant making fun for the benefit of a tourist but the underlying community spirit here is very harmonious. For someone with such self proclaimed expertise in the area of prejudice and racism you really have no idea how it works do you?

As previously said this implies that the various nationalities and religions involved respect and love each other and they don’t. Do you honestly believe that Hindus and Muslims, West Indians and Africans, Poles and Russians, etc love and respect each other?
