Nobody was forced to come here but we have been forced to put up with as many immigrants that want to come here whether we like it or not.
You are right, the colour of someone's skin has nothing to do with immigration. White people leaving London (replace the word London with a number of Towns and Cities up and down the country), refers to what all sections of the media term as "White Flight'. By white, this of course means White British. I.E. when the immigrants move in, the White British move out. Not because they are Racists, its because they want to live by people similar to themselves.
If their street or area is filling up with Eastern Europeans, many will naturally want to move out. This is why we have large areas in our Towns and Cities where there are very few White British people. Some call it Multiculturalism, but its really about sticking to our own kind (that goes for any Nationality) and tolerating something over which we have no control. But eventually I think it will cause fear and resentment. (Housing, Education, NHS). Please dont reply saying I am just blaming the immigrants for everything. I'm not. It's Blair, going back to 2004 and the EU laws over which we have no control. If I was Romanian, I would crawl over broken glass to get here.
I am concerned about what David Blunkett said though. I hope he is proven wrong but it sounds like he was saying, 'the fuse has already been lit'.
In that case, presumably there are massive all-white enclaves being established throughout the country. All those hard-done by white folks have to go somewhere, and obviously they won't be moving abroad as they'd be living with people who are different - the horror! Where are they all going?
This sentence could have been lifted from the "rivers of blood" speech.
I actually feel honoured to be mentioned (in a roundabout way), in the same sentence as the intellectual giant, Enoch Powell.
are you totally thick??? You argue wth yourself that using the word "white" might be considered racist, and then suggest we all substitute the word "London" to avoid this scenario.
If i wasn't pissing myself laughing at your stupidity, i might be angry about that, but i'm still pissing myself laughing, ha ha ha ha

No one is forcing you to do anything. Feel free to leave whenever you like.
I am a White Heterosexual Male and a Married Father living in my own country.
When I go to places like the pub, or the restaurant, or a concert or Molineux, I am surrounded by people like me. (Ok they wont all be Heterosexual or Married).
Either way, that makes me feel happy and comfortable to be with my 'own kind'. It's what we all do but I am just admitting to it. Perhaps that makes you feel uncomfortable because it's what you do too ?
I don't have friends from Poland, Romania or Bulgaria.
Or perhaps you and others on here can tell us all about how you engage with your Multicultural Circle of European friends ?
What is this natural tendency of which you speak? When some people encounter cultural differences, their instinct isn't to run away, but is to investigate & befriend. If what you said were true, there would never have been any explorers, there would be no innovators, no-one would ever travel.
.........That's why we go on holiday to other country's. But the vast majority come back to the UK and stay here.
Quote The only fear & resentment I see is already existing in you & your posts.
I'm trying to work out if you're actually just on the wind up or genuinely a bigot. I should add I hope it's the former.
Enoch Powell was an intellectual giant. In many ways. Shame he $#@!ed up any chance he had of becoming prime minister with that speech.
I can see the point being made.
Myself, for example; Im not racist, I just really really really hate black people, and dont want to be near them, in case I catch black.
Johnny, it really doesn't matter does it ? Does anyone on here really know anything about Enoch Powell other than that speech he made in 1968 ?
Does anyone know that much of his speech was spent quoting his constituents from the letters they had sent to him ?
That first sentence along with many others you have written are rhetoric of the BNP. Are you associated with them or agree with their stance on 'people of colour'?
Hint: The answer 'Does it matter ?' is tantamount to admitting you do.
