The Steadfast Trust - WTF??

So again like I said, you're annoyed that we're near the same conclusions (you are more cautious than I am) and I based mine just off the spiel provided by the charity register.

So, once again in plain English - there's enough "smoke" to suggest the possibility of a "fire", but no actual hard evidence of said "fire".

We didn't need to do research to figure that much out. But thanks for doing unnecessary legwork.

I've stopped worrying about it. England is dead and is incapable of revivification.

OTOH I think the UK is doing fine and will increasingly become a multicultural individualistic utterly mixed and successful place.

What I find interesting is that "multicultural" seems so bland and generic compared to the monocultural culture that existed before

My general opposition to group identities notwithstanding; the reason for this blandness is that it can only reach for the lowest common denominator of inoffensiveness and inclusion.

Basically you can't have bacon and beer if you invite muslims over for dinner. You can't have steak with hindus. You can't have shellfish with jews, nor mix any meat with dairy. You can't have horse with icelanders, or britons. The Koreans demanding kimchi with dog will be disappointed if any englishmen are invited.

I think only lamb and fish aren't sinful to somebody. Do you want to live in a world with only lamb and fish?

The meltingpot, however, creates a world with proiscutto, india pale ale, crab sticks, t-bones, cheeseburgers.. and unfortunately horse sausages.

But the English are the dominant culture, language, and population in the UK.

That's on its way out, dear.

Those Poles sure are hard to assimilate!

Fuck off.

It's amazing how easily inappropriate guilt can end a civilization.

You mean the White Man's Complex?  A very Anglo-Saxon thing yes - that has spawned the vile mongrel that is multiculturalism and drives England to the self flagellation of massive 3rd world immigration.  Canada, Australia are similarly affected.

Last time I checked, French suburbs were full of people from the old colonies who will burn up cars at the drop of a hat.  The English-speaking peoples don't have a monopoly on feeling shame for their success.  It's just strongest there because we're by far the most successful of all the peoples on the Earth.

Fixed it for you
