THE GLOBAL DISAPPEARANCE OF BEES

“Up to 12 million Bees Found Dead in Florida and No one Knows Why”.

I believe it was Albert Einstein that  said that “if the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe, man would have only four years to live”. 

Basically his theory makes a lot of sense. 

No Bees, No Pollination!  

There is no question the bees are becoming extinct. Ask any “beekeeper” and they’ll tell you the same.

I know there have been attempts at “alternative” Pollination but none have ever been successful. Only the Bees can do what GOD designed them to do.

Well for the last 7 years the bees worldwide have been disappearing and no one really knows why.
The disorder has significantly affected bee populations since the 1970′s with a sharp increase in losses since 2006. Now, as beekeepers return to their hives to prepare for spring pollination, they are finding that at least half of their bees are gone.
This syndrome, named colony collapse disorder, or CCD, is characterized by the disappearance of adult honey bees from the hive, leaving the newborns to fend for themselves.
The 2013 year now marks the highest loss on record with at least 50 percent of all European honeybees in the U.S. reported lost to CCD.

Honey bees are of vital importance, and their declining populations are an incredibly critical issue.
As pollinators, they are responsible for over 130 different fruit and vegetable crops that we eat.
As they travel from blossom to blossom in search of nectar, pollen sticks to their furry body and is transferred to another flowering blossom enabling it to swell into a ripened fruit.
Animal pollination is essential for nuts, melons and berries, and plays varying roles in citrus fruits, apples, onions, broccoli, cabbage, sprouts, courgettes, peppers, aubergines, avocados, cucumbers, coconuts, tomatoes and broad beans, as well as coffee and cocoa.

Just what’s killing the bees remains a mystery but beekeepers are beside themselves, often approaching their hives to find hundreds of worker bees dying outside the hives each day. 

As the bees die, farmers lose the ability to pollinate crops, reducing yields and thereby the food supply. 

Farmers are now projecting that the decrease in the supply of fruits and vegetables will be so great that prices will be impacted by the summer of this year. 

A number of beekeepers blame pesticides for the loss of their bees, specifically as class known as neonicotinoids.  

Neonicotinoids are a form of pesticide that work by blocking the nerve endings in insects, paralyzing them so that they die slowly by starvation. Beekeepers think their bees are being exposed to the pesticides and are dying as a result.

John Bean’s Nationalist Notebook – 27.03.13

John Bean’s Nationalist Notebook – 27.03.13

Don’t Let Ukip con U

We should at least thank Ukip for  making it fashionable to at last discuss the problems of mass immigration. Although British Democrat candidates in the local elections will find that at the moment it is UKIP who is going to reap the electoral harvest it has raised.
The more politically alert have already rumbled UKIP. It is not so much a political party as a safety valve for the LibLabCon. It’s not in business to stop immigration or to get Britain out of the EU, but to stop others from doing so. By ‘others’ I mean the British Democratic Party when its full potential is realised by the electorate.
In the 14 years that Nigel Farage and his chums first appeared in Brussels they have achieved nothing – not counting excellent lunches and Farage himself admitting he had gained £2 million in EU expenses in that period (part paid by British taxpayers).
I say ‘nothing’ because under his rule Ukip has never actually campaigned in Brussels for Britain to leave the EU. As Marta Andreasen (a Ukip MEP who fell foul of Nigel) has revealed: “Ukip/Nigel has  not campaigned for a referendum. The Party is only saying we want out, but does not show how. There was never a plan and there is no plan today either.”
Just before our 2010 Parliamentary election Ukip (then minus two MEPs  who had been jailed for fiddling their expenses) needed a boost to their falling support. It started to suggest they would do something about immigration. They even called for a five year ban. But in  reality this was all a sham.
On the Daily Politics Show 4^th May 2010 Farage said: “We would need a minimum of a quarter of a million work permits annually”.
Then on Question Time 25^th November 2010 he said: “I am not opposed to immigration. Much of the immigration to this country has been good”.
On Good Friday 2010 on Radio 4’s Any Questions Farage was asked what achievement was he most proud of. Interestingly, he said: “stopping the BNP from ever becoming a large political party”.
Today, with Ukip now flavour of the month, voters are again being deluded that it can offer a full policy. It will almost certainly go the same way as the 2010 election policy. According to Nikki Sinclaire, another Ukip MEP who Farage has driven out, it was torn up by Farage who told his election workers that the people know what we stand for.
Since his secret dinner with Rupert Murdoch, the global capitalist newspaper owner who is said to be supportive of Farage’s  views towards Europe, if he expects backing from Murdoch’s The Sun and the Times he will have to curtail some of his hot air on immigration

Why All Further Immigration Must be Stopped

Whether you are talking about housing -  and social housing in particular, destruction of the green belt, the strain on the NHS, the undercutting of workers’ wages, worsening education for our children in state schools, congested roads and motorways, plus most other problems facing Britain today, the affect of immigration can no longer be avoided. Just take three issues which made the news in March.
1. Although the coalition Government, with Labour approval, has talked the talk of curbing migrants’ access to council housing and made play with the 2011-12 statistic that immigrants only occupy  9 per cent of social housing stock ( surely it must be at least 10 per cent now?), as there are 3.8 million social housing  rentals today (Independent 21 February 2013) this means 380,000 immigrant families. Probably a higher percentage take private rentals, which are 3.84 million, and the immigrant demand is known to force up rents.
2. Further aggravation of the issue will occur in nine months when the Romanians and Bulgarians are allowed to come here without let or hindrance. It will only be 15,000 to 20,000, the Government unofficially suggests. The more reliable figures coming from MigrationWatch are that it will be around 50,000 people a year for the next five years!
3. We recommend an investigation report by the Sunday Telegraph (24 March 2013)
“The Surge in foreign students who come to Britain then disappear”. Considerable  evidence is given to show that abuse of the system applies to most of the more than 100,000 foreign students who came here last year, 20 times the figure of two years ago.
We have well wishers of the Brit Dems who suggest that we would get more support if we were not so rigid on immigration. We must face it. With one person in five in Britain now being an immigrant, or born here of recent immigrant stock, and Afro-Asians having a  higher birth rate than the indigenous people, there is no alternative. All further immigration must be stopped and those who are here illegally should be deported. Otherwise our children and  grandchildren will be the ethnic minority in  these islands by 2050.

You can be Gay and a Brit Dem

If you are ‘straight’ then it is natural to feel some revulsion if contemplating the sexual practices of homosexuals. However, it is high time that nationalists accept the fact that a considerable number of gays  are fellow believers in our socio-political struggle to maintain  these islands as the homeland of the British.
What they do in private is their own affair. It should remain as being private. All we ask is that they do not join with those gays who seem intent in proselytising  our youth to become ‘converts’. If that is accepted, then they can be welcomed as supporters of the British Democratic Party.
Many gays who have wanted to bond with a partner with some form of marriage are quite content with a Civil Partnership. My personal view (which is a majority view among the public) is that this should not be extended to a church marriage, which is against the very principles of the Christian Church since its foundation. Therefore, why is this Government  pushing the gay marriage concept? Under the legislation they are passing they now have plans to make the chapel of St.Mary Undercroft, which has been the main place of Christian worship in the Palace of Westminster for 700 years, a multi-faith prayer room – so that it can be used to conduct same-sex weddings. The scheme was proposed by Labour front bencher Chris Bryant, who is openly gay.
Gross exaggeration  of sufferings that some gays have had to put up with does not help their case. Such as  when the BBC, in an Easter message, likens the treatment of gays in Britain to the crucifixion of Christ. Benjamin Cohen, the founder of the gay publisher Pink News, tells Radio 4 listeners that just like homosexual people, Jesus was punished “for something he couldn’t help’.

Classical Music is ‘Racist’

If you wondered what us old nationalists mean when we talk about ‘cultural Marxists’, here’s a ‘classical’ example.
The politically-inspired Marxists (i.e. followers of Communism and its off-shoots) who run Unite Against Fascism and Hope not Hate have long established the view that if you believe in halting immigration then any attempt to speak publically on this   should be halted by violence – particularly by UAF.
The attack on European culture has long been part of the Marxist’s long-term  campaign in order to make us more acceptable to their concept of a one-world, multi-cultural state. The above organisations have now issued an edict to target Classic FM and Radio 3 as elitist and racially offensive to minorities. This is what they say:
“Classical music is dead and should be seen for what it is, the decadent leftovers from a dying white imperialist culture that has no relevance to anybody in the younger generation. It is an anachronism that this exclusionist crap should still be tolerated, when we have such a harvest of black and global cultural music to hear and enjoy. Nobody wants to hear about dead German composers or the Nazi Wagner! It is time this stuff was treated like smoking and global warming deniers and its supporters driven to the fringes of society.  The Far Right closely identify with so called classical music and that should be enough to eradicate it from our lives in the global village.”
My musical tastes are catholic, in that I am quite happy to listen to tuneful popular music. Many of the nationalists I have mixed with in the past enjoyed music as played by Eric Clapton, Paul Weller and The Jam, and some Beatles songs. We also enjoyed trad jazz, of which the New Orleans black artists were the tops. If you have an old recording of  Otis Redding singing “I’m Sitting on the Dock of the Bay” then compare it with the criminality of much of today’s crap, sorry rap, noise -  hardly ‘music’.
I also enjoy much classical music, particularly Sibelius, Richard Straus, such as his Four Last Songs, and even some Wagner – Tristan and Isolde  in particular. I find some string quartet’s heavy going. And I tend to agree with an old friend of mine who dubbed medieval church  music  as “I’v e-caught-my-knackers-in-the-mangle music”.

Another view of the Budget

“The budget should be balanced, the treasury should be refilled, public debts should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest we become bankrupt, the mobs should be forced to work and not depend on government for subsistence.”
This come from Marcus T Cicero 55BC.
Obviously, we’ve not learnt a lot in the last 2,068 years.

GOVERNMENT TO SUBSIDISE MORTGAGES FOR IMMIGRANTS

When you bought your home how much did the Government give you to help pay for the cost of the Motgage ?

Well they're now going to help Immigrants to buy their own homes by using your taxes to give them cheaper mortagages.

Foreigners 'can qualify for state-subsidised mortgages'

Foreigners will probably be able to qualify for state-subsidised mortgages announced in the Budget, it has emerged 

"

Analysis of plans set out by Chancellor George Osborne to make it cheaper for people to take out loans shows that people from inside and outside the European can qualify.

In an analysis published by a leading law firm, asked: “Can EU and non EU residents get government mortgages?” It replied: “Likely to be yes – [it] could be political if non EU residents get government funding.”

David Anderson, a partner at SykesAnderson, said human rights rules would make it impossible to stop foreigners from taking advantage of the scheme.

Mr Anderson said: “It would be difficult to stop EU nationals and EU residents, or you would be stopping the free movement of labour.

“If someone wants to come to work here and they could not access the same finance as English person, it would be a case for discrimination because it would prevent them from moving here.”"

MORE JOYS OF IMMIGRATION - CELEBRATE THE DIVERSITY

Afghan rape marathon in swedish refugee camp, Mariannelund. A dozen refugees rape a caretaker. A socialist reacted to the gruesome crime:" It's racism to expel them". Seven afghan refugees to Sweden were convicted of a gruesome mass rape.

 The prosecutor said it was the most gruesome rape marathon in the nations history. Nearly a dozen afghans raped of a 29-year old mother of two, a caretaker non-stop for 7 hours.

Afghans asylum seekers at the Mariannelund refugee camp tasked a friend with bringing a woman to the refugee camp so they could rape her. The main character, Rafi Bahaduri went to the home of a 29 year old female caretaker.

He tricked her into the car and to took her to the refugee housing where he and the others raped her. The young mother of 2 children were taken to the refugee camp under false pretense where a dozen asylum seekers waited. The refugees forced her down on a bed and ripped her clothes off.

The rape was oral, anal and vaginal sometimes with three rapists inside her at the same time while everybody was cheering and clapping. The gruesome rape marathon lasted for 7 hours. 11 suspect may have been involved taking turns while drinking and getting high on drugs.

The asylum seekers were cheering and clapping their hands during the rape marathon while calling the victim "whore" and "slut". For primitive afghans, a "whore" means any non-muslim woman and rape is accepted practice.

 A total of 11 rapists were suspected of taking part in the afghan rape marathon. Only 7 were convicted, they got 4.5 - 6.5 years in prison, those expelled are permitted back after a few years.

The main suspect who tricked the victim to go with him to the rape den will not even be expelled. The victim is now in a wheelchair suffering from mental distress.

GANG WARFARE ON THE STREETS OF BRITAIN - ONE OF THE JOYS OF IMMIGRATION

About two miles north-east of Birmingham city centre, in an area of Aston known for violence among gangs and drug dealers, six gang members are gathered in a building. The older members – 'elders’ – are doing what they have always done, which is teaching young members how to follow in their paths, imparting their knowledge to the next generation.

Tobeijah Atkinson, 'The Rev’, is an elder. He is 27. But instead of giving the youngsters a gun and teaching them how to sell drugs, which formed part of his own education as a gang member, he is teaching them business skills. Another elder, 36-year-old Simeon Moore, 'Zimbo’, who 'started rolling with knives when he was 12’, is writing a school programme about personal development, to encourage young people to believe that their options are not limited to a criminal lifestyle.

Atkinson is affiliated to the Burger Bar Boys, Moore to the Johnson Crew – two of the most notorious gangs in the country with a hardcore membership of about 24 on each side. Two years ago, Atkinson and Moore might have pulled guns on each other. Now they are working together.

This extraordinary change is down to a documentary, One Mile Away. Directed by Penny Woolcock and produced by James Purnell, the former Labour cabinet minister, it charts what happens after two rival gang members – Matthias 'Shabba’ Thompson, 33, from the Johnsons and Dylan Duffus, 31, from the Burger Bar Boys – take the decision to call a truce and campaign for peace.

 The gangs share the same Afro-Caribbean background, the same hostility to the police and the same criminal lifestyle – they are from the same community, but are separated by a postcode. The Johnsons are from the B6 and B19 area of Birmingham, and the Burgers from the neighbouring B20 and B21.

The distance between the homes of Duffus and Thompson is about one mile. Each gang has territories – certain streets, certain hangouts – and the appearance of rival gangsters in the wrong place can lead to bloodshed. And it soon becomes clear in the film that not everyone shares Thompson’s and Duffus’s desire for peace.

World Health Organization Warns Of Drug Resistant ‘Global’ Flu

H1N1 Swine flu is thought to have killed 200,000 people globally and Australian experts are concerned that the disease now has much more potent pandemic potential than it had before.
Tamiflu (oseltamivir) is now powerless against the strain  H1N1pdm09 that has been found in people in the community rather than sick patients with serious underlying conditions and weak immune systems. Zanamivir (Relenza) still has some effect but it is not widely held in stock in the community or in hospitals.
Lead investigator Dr Aeron Hurt, from the World Health Organization Collaborating Centre for Reference and Research on Influenza in Melbourne, said:

“The greatest concern is that these resistant viruses could spread globally, similar to that seen in 2008 when the former seasonal H1N1 virus developed oseltamivir (Tamiflu) resistance and spread worldwide in less than 12 months.”

The new strain is emerging in people who have never been treated with Tamiflu, suggesting it is very good at spreading person to person taking its resistant properties with it.
Usually Tamiflu resistance occurs when of people have been given the drug to treat their symptoms. There are real concerns that it could go global and with Relenza not being available in large quantities it’s anyones guess what the outcome would be.
Just weeks before the flu seasons starts in the southern hemisphere, new Australian research reveals one in five cases of swine flu in one area in 2011 were resistant to the antiviral medicine.
Dr Aeron Hurt from the World Health Organisation collaborating centre for flu research in Melbourne, says the bug appears more prone than other types of flu to developing drug resistance.
And he warns access to anti-viral treatments may have to be restricted to limit further resistance developing.

“In most flu viruses, the changes that make the virus resistant to treatment also make it less likely to spread to others. With swine flu, this has not happened and the virus remains fit enough to spread to others” Dr Hurt said.

Research on patients in Newcastle NSW in 2011 found just one person in the area had used Tamiflu but the resistant form of the virus spread to 20 per cent of all those who developed swine flu in that region. Dr Hurt continued:

“Widespread transmission of a fit resistant strain is of significant public health concern.The development of resistance to these drugs reduces the options for treating seriously ill patients,”

The only way to combat the growth of drug resistant strain of the virus is to save medicines for the most needy cases he said, stressing that he is not qualified to say who should get access to the medicine.
Research on the 2009 swine flu outbreak found pregnant women children aged under 5, those aged over 65 and those with significant illnesses are most at risk from swine flu. Early flu activity in Queensland this year has shown swine flu is the predominant strain. The flu season in Australia runs from May to October.

The Daily Sheeple

PETER HITCHINS - Alien nation: The new census reveals a Britain that would be unrecognisable even to our grandparents

The future will be another country. They will do things differently there. 

The Census is not just a description of the state of things on a day in 2011, it is a prophetic document telling us where we are going, whether we like it or not. I don’t.

For the past 60 years or so, we have lived in a nation that was more or less familiar to anyone who had grown up in the pre-war Britain of 1939. 

Even the devastation of conflict had not transformed it out of recognition. 

People behaved, thought, worked, laughed and enjoyed themselves much as they had done for decades. 

They lived in the same sorts of families in the same kind of houses. Their children went to the same kinds of schools.

And they had grown up in a land that was still identifiably the same as their grandparents had known. 

And so it went back for centuries.
As recently as 1949, the prices of most goods were roughly the same, and expressed in the same money, as the prices of 1649. 

A short-distance time-traveller between 1912 and 2012 might be perplexed and astonished, but he would not be lost. 

That period is now coming to an end. I suspect that anyone in Britain, travelling between 2012 and 2112 would be unable to believe that he was in the same place.

What is the most significant single fact in the Census? I do not think there is one. Several are shocking or disturbing, if you are not fond of change, and delightful if you are.

 But there are some, which taken together, prophesy a transformation to come.

Look at these – manufacturing is now only the fourth-biggest employer, after supplying and selling goods and services, health and social work and education. 

So, in the nation that was once the ‘Workshop of the World’, we now have more teachers than industrial workers. 

London is rapidly becoming a separate nation, as different from England as Scotland or Wales are, with indigenous British people now in a minority, in some areas a very small minority indeed, and incidentally with extremes of wealth and poverty not known since Edwardian times.

Then of course there is the decline in Christianity, down by four million, from 72 per cent to 59 per cent; the growth in indifference to religion, with non-believers almost doubling to 14.1 million; and also of Islam, rising so fast that one British resident in 20 is now a Muslim. 

The Muslim population is young, and keen on large families, while the Christian population tends to be older and less likely to have children. 

This is very much a work in progress, far from complete. A lot of nominal Christians are no longer bothering to pretend to a faith they have never cared much about.   

Do not be surprised if, in ten years, the gap between the number of professing Christians and the number of Muslims has grown much smaller.

The secularists, who have so enthusiastically sought to drive Christianity out of British life, may realise with a gulp of apprehension that they have only created a vacancy for Islam – a faith that is not at all troubled by Richard Dawkins. 

Perhaps most significant of all is the accelerating disappearance of marriage as the normal state of life for grown-up people. 

For the first time, fewer than half of adults are married. 

This means many things – a greater number of fatherless households, a greater number of cohabiting couples, the rapid disappearance of what was once a strong social force. 

Since the stable married family is a fortress of private life and individuality, its retreat will mean the opposite of that: more state interference and surveillance, more conformism – and more conformists – and mass culture. Its main effect will be on the children. 

Many of them will grow up outside what used to be normal, a lifelong two-parent home. 

They will, as a result, be different sorts of people. Already, almost half of Britain’s 15-year-olds do not live with their ‘birth parents’; 300,000 sets of parents split each year. 

I cannot believe this is not part of the reason for the so-called ‘riots’ of 2011, in which young men brought  up without male authority ran wild. 

These were equal-opportunity events, and their causes were home-grown, not imported. This will get much, much worse.

Again, conservatives will find this worrying and ill-omened. Liberal ‘progressives’, who have never had much time for the married family, seeing it as a sort of prison, will view it as a liberation. 

Edmund Leach, giving his influential Reith Lectures in 1967, put it this way: ‘Far from being the basis of the good society, the family, with its narrow privacy and tawdry secrets, is the source of all our discontents.’

It is striking that just as homosexuals seem to be most enthusiastic about getting married, heterosexuals are tiring of the whole thing.

But now compare the giant political fuss over same-sex marriage with the numbers of people affected. See just what a tiny proportion of the country is involved.

While the decline of conventional marriage involves many millions, there are 105,000 people in civil partnerships, one-fifth of one per cent of the population, one person in 500. 

And that is seven years after they first became available. 

I have deliberately left migration to the end. The figures are astonishing, with one in ten people in England and Wales now born abroad, and the rate of increase over the past few years equally astounding – almost half of these new citizens have arrived here since 2001.

And, in a figure that has not attracted the attention it should have, almost three million people live in households where no adults speak English as their first language.

The main significance of this is the speed of it. Even now, official immigration still stands at 180,000 a year. Probably these totals are an underestimate, as illegal migrants tend not to fill in forms. 

But the really important fact is that this revolution is the result of a deliberate, planned attempt to change this country for ever, and we have the evidence of this.

On October 23, 2009, a former New Labour official called Andrew Neather wrote an article in the London Evening Standard which was that very rare thing – a genuine revelation of a political secret.
The crucial passage described ‘a major shift from the policy of previous governments’.  

It disclosed that a ‘big immigration report was surrounded by an unusual air of both anticipation and secrecy . . . there was a paranoia about it reaching the media . . . Earlier drafts I saw also included a driving political purpose: that mass immigration was the way that the Government was going to make the UK truly multicultural.

‘I remember coming away from some discussions with the clear sense that the policy was intended – even if this wasn’t its main purpose – to rub the Right’s nose in diversity and render their arguments out of date. That seemed to me to be a manoeuvre too far.

‘Ministers were very nervous about the whole thing . . . There was a reluctance elsewhere in Government to discuss what increased immigration would mean, above all for Labour’s core white working-class vote . . . 

‘Part by accident, part by design, the Government had created its longed-for immigration boom. But Ministers wouldn’t talk about it.’ Why not? Because Labour voters wouldn’t have liked it.

‘While Ministers might have been passionately in favour of a more diverse society, it wasn’t necessarily a debate they wanted to have in working-men’s clubs in Sheffield  or Sunderland.’

On Friday the Labour leader, Ed Miliband, was still trying to appeal to working-class voters whose views his metropolitan fat-cat party secretly despises. 

                                  

While praising immigration to his London audience, he pretended to be concerned about it by admitting there is ‘anxiety’ about the pace of change. 

He promised (absurdly, since the EU has controlled our frontiers for many years) that ‘Britain must always control its borders’.

But he then swiftly dismissed the idea – which would be the only hope of future harmony – that migrants should assimilate, saying this was ‘wrong for our country’. 

He proclaimed: ‘One Nation doesn’t mean one identity. People can be proudly, patriotically British without abandoning their cultural roots.’

Is this true? In the days when the USA still sought to assimilate its migrants, it certainly didn’t think so. It insisted that they became Americans in every way, and as soon as they could. 

Half the point of American state schools was the creation of new young Americans. 

Since that policy was abandoned 30 years ago, the USA has in reality ceased to be one country, with large areas speaking Spanish and retaining the customs and cultures of their homes, hostile or chilly to their American fellow citizens, who return the favour.

Any observant person in Britain can see the same process in such cities as Bradford, where multiculturalism has created two solitudes with their backs turned on each other.

Bit by bit, the people of this country are ceasing to have key things in common. They don’t share a religion, or a culture, or a history.  Many don’t even share a language. 

They don’t eat the same food or watch the same TV stations or have a common sense of humour.
They sometimes even disagree about whether to drive on the left.

They come from completely different legal and political traditions.
 
In a strange paradox, many of the new Britons are more socially and morally conservative than their indigenous British neighbours, though their presence here is a sort of revolution in flesh and blood.

Many of the new migrants also have a completely different work ethic, not having grown up in our entitlement-based welfare state – which is why one of their main unspoken functions in Labour’s plan has been to keep wages down by providing a huge pool of cheap and willing unskilled labour. 

Without mass immigration, the minimum wage would long ago have had to rise sharply, creating the crisis that all economists predicted when it was introduced.

As it is, we are fast becoming a low-wage, unskilled economy, with overcrowded cities, multi-occupied housing and hopelessly strained medical services, transport and schools. 

There is also a widening gap between the rich, who can afford servants again for the first time since the era of Downton Abbey, and the poor, who have to be those servants. 

The only way we will be able to sustain this is by becoming steadily cheaper, devaluing our currency through inflation and incidentally destroying the savings and pensions of the thrifty. 

That will also kill off the welfare state, whose provisions and payouts will gradually shrink to the point where they are valueless.

We are also becoming a more violent, noisy and unrestrained culture, more drunk, more drugged, more indebted, more rootless and less particular. 

Our language is increasingly internationalised and full of Americanisms (Mr Miliband thinks railway stations are called ‘train stations’), our landmarks, particularly the customary weights and measures with which millions grew up, are being extirpated in schools and on the media.

There is no sign that any of these developments are stopping, or even slowing. Far from it. They are accelerating. They were meant to.

The secret thinkers at the core of the Blair Government wanted to begin the world over again, at home and abroad, though they never dared to tell us how. 

As their mighty, unstoppable project unfolds, Britain as we knew it will disappear, as they hoped it would. At least we know who to blame.
