No one is saying that to question immigration policy makes you racist.

Not sure there Walt to be truthful. Read through the thread and there are some who appear to equate questioning these policies and concerns, (whilst also wanting to stand up for the local populus) with ignorance, idiocy, and racism.

There are many quotes; to paraphrase 'those who agree with the BNP are racist idiots'. 4

I voted Labour last time, but I don't agree with some of their polices either.

The BNP 'bring these issues to the dinner table' because they want to prey on peoples concerns over employment, the economy, erosion of British culture (whatever that is!), etc to peddle there own, racist, agenda.

As I said, abhorant.

Here's the 'Aussie' version....

Whole world Needs A Leader Like This!





Prime Minister Kevin Rudd - Australia

Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on Wednesday to get out of Australia , as the government targeted radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks..


Separately, Rudd angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying he supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques. Quote:
'IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, 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 Bali , we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians. '

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

'We speak mainly 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!'

'Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, 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.'

'We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.'

'This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and 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 Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, 'THE RIGHT TO LEAVE'.'


'If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted.'

That is so right, we need politicians like that. Fair and with backbone.

It's not often i'd say this but boy i wish i was australian I've said it before and i'll say it again i can't wait to leave this island and join my girlfriends family in the land of the free.

I was talking to my girlfriends mum last week and she asked me about the imigration problem in the uk and the only way i could put it across was as if the US opened its border with Mexico, lets just say she was lost for words as she knows how much damage it would cause to the us economy if people wondered over the border un chalenged, unfortunatly it is whats happening in this country but only on a smaller level.

Its not the land of the free to poverty stricken America. Grass is always greener. I loved my visits to US but could never live and work there.
You seem to be misinforming folks over the pond because people can't just wonder over the border to live unless you provide for themselves. Apart from the "proud to be scottish" Scots that once down here, hate England but won't go back

I cant fault Mutt, wish i had the balls to pack up and leave myself.

If you want - what's the problem? You don't like it here - you want to join your girlfriend and family in the good old US of A. You appeared to applaud the sentiment of the Australian Prime Minister (which is a mis-quote by the way - as indicated in the Snopes article that I linked to earlier) - so I assume you will be taking advantage of your 'RIGHT TO LEAVE' ?

I'll take my chances here if it's all the same with you.
