The Great Escape From Britain

 

By Michael Walsh

The number of Britons fleeing the United Kingdom has reached levels last experienced during the assisted passage era. Then, hundreds of thousands of destitute emigrants escaped the poverty of post-war Britain to settle abroad.

Today for the first time in history over 1,000,000 retired Britons choose to live anywhere but England, and most but not all choose mainland Europe. It is estimated that 240,000 UK citizens of all ages are now burning their boats and turning their backs on the United Kingdom – every single year.

One newspaper alone, the Friday edition of the Daily Mail carries nearly sixty advertisements for companies cashing in on ‘the evacuation’. These include details of 36 ‘escape centre’ exhibitions in England alone where England’s refugees can seek assistance in re-locating abroad.

At these exhibitions, some of them multi-stand, visitors in their thousands queue to learn about the attractions of life outside their own beleaguered country.

Typically one exhibition at York fielded over 100 homes abroad specialists early in June last year. As with similar ‘escape departure points’ it attracted unprecedented numbers of would-be UK refugees.

Although the doors to the exhibition were not scheduled to be open until 10.00am by a little after 9.00am two queues, each a hundred metres long, had formed. In each one desperate and depressed Britons chose to stand in the rain, each with a pre-taxed entrance fee of £3, to get the chance of seeking a new life abroad.

One exhausted exhibitor said, “It was just like the January sales. As soon as the doors open they pour in; we never even get the chance to eat a sandwich for lunch! It was the same at the much bigger exhibitions at Earls Court, the Cumberland Hotel at Marble Arch, and the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham.”

A visitor said ruefully: “I wish Tony Blair could see what he is doing to this country – and the results,” he added as he waved his hand at the throngs surging around the various exhibits.

The reasons given for leaving England in such numbers are varied but they all add up to general dissatisfaction. Whilst Britain’s poor weather is a factor it doesn’t stand alone. Tony Blair and his cohorts have little control over the weather anyway.

When questioned as to their reason for seeking a new life abroad the overwhelming majority of escapees is quick to respond. “We are over taxed and working for nothing’ is on everyone’s lips. “Bloody immigration” is often cited but such words are whispered in hushed tones as though frightened that they will be overheard.

Crime being out of control, Britain’s drug culture, the cost of living, the state of the health ‘service’ and a general feeling that England has had its chips makes up the general consensus. As one astute American put it: “Britain today is like the Titanic. and they are not even hanging around to watch the bubbles.”

A tired stand advisor at one of the exhibitions told of how visitors are dismayed to learn that they may have to wait up to two years, sometimes three, for their new home abroad to be built. Some opt for re-sale properties so they can leave quickly, which is a good idea as demand is pushing prices up anyway. He grinned and added that when dealing with apprehensive migrants he introduces himself as ‘the Chairman of the Escape Committee.’

“That way,” he added they know exactly where I am coming from. They identify and often pour out expressions of disgust at their country’s rapid decline.

The rush to leave Britain may increase as it is revealed that Britain’s trade balance has now reached a record 3 billion pounds. This is the difference between what it sells and purchases. Such a deficit identifies the depressed manufacturing and service economy, which is faltering. Few believe the massaged unemployment figures.


Experts say this cannot happen overnight as the fragile economy would likely collapse as a result. They predict that it will gradually be reduced over the next two years. “Death duties, the erosion of pensions and the evaporation of savings is driving people to desperation,” one said.

A visitor returning from a recent trip to southern Spain says he often chats with ex-patriates. They cannot bring themselves to believe what has happened to their country. One pensioner when asked if she ever returned home to England, or if she missed England at all, vehemently replied that she didn’t and anyway she couldn’t afford to return.

Many if not most are heading directly to the Spanish Costas; the Mediterranean coastal strip running from Barcelona at the north of the Costa Brava, right through the 210 kilometres Costa Blanca Stretch and through to the Costa del Sol. All paradise compared to Britain. The lower cost of living, crime negligible by comparison, a better quality of life, are all a big draw.

Others are evacuating to France, northern Italy, the Greek islands and in particular Cyprus and Crete where crime is just 6% that of Britain’s. Many others are heading west to Florida in the United States.

The United Kingdom is now the most expensive country in Europe, where taxation has even passed that of notorious Germany. The cost of living and house prices in particular are driving native-born Britons abroad. Many young Britons can no longer afford a home of their own in their own country. Mortgages after the highest taxation levies in Europe simply can’t be paid. Some young married couples are facing first home mortgages of £200,000 and are being driven out of their own country.

The Daily Mail recently reported that “Massive increases in house prices in recent years have made Britain one of the most expensive places to buy a home in the world. Low prices, the strong pound and low interest rates have led to a surge in demand for foreign property and the search for a better quality of life.”

One exhibitor who didn’t wish to be named said: “How much longer can any country take it? The equivalent of a fair sized city is now leaving every year. They are taking their wealth, their experience, and their way of life abroad.

In the meantime similar numbers of incoming refugees, who have no means of support; people who have no home, no skills, who aren’t able to contribute in any way, are replacing them. People who furthermore have a cultural background wholly alien to that of the indigenous population. It is frightening,” he concluded.

The refugees in similar numbers are flooding in to take advantage of huge handouts, funded by the escapees before they join ‘the chicken run’ to southern Europe and the United States and the Republic of Ireland.

Homes Overseas magazine says: “Experts are still forecasting moderate growth in sales over the next two or three years and, over the next five, some are predicting up to two million families will move into the Costa Blanca region over the next five years.”

Many emigrants are attracted to the more prosperous life abroad where people can still stroll, shop, enjoy life without fear of being mugged or be accosted by druggies and aggressive street beggars that infest Britain’s mean streets today.

“It’s the quality of life that people go for. If you look at the cost of living, it’s at least 40 per cent lower than in the UK or Ireland,” reports Richard Saunders, a prominent expert.

Fleeing Britons are also outraged by the depressingly predictable sleaze in politics, degrading material being shown on television, and the poorest educational opportunities in Europe. “Britain is one stinking sink estate, riddled with crime, vandalism, and despair,” said one exhibition visitor.

Many are attracted to Cyprus where, as in other parts of Europe, bi-lingualism is commonplace and over half the young people enjoy a university education. Derek Workman, who left for Spain two years ago, when asked what the main differences in lifestyle were replied, “Immeasurable.” Asked if he had any regrets the ex-patriot responded ruefully. “Only that I didn’t do it 20 years ago – a phrase you oft hear repeated here.”

He smiled when asked what he missed most about England? “The Spanish phrase is nada de nada meaning absolutely nothing – with bells on!” he grinned.


John —— an ex-career officer in the Royal Air Force said that the happiest moments of his life was when sailing across the English Channel, with his family, heading for a new life abroad. Another, an ex-colonel in the Kings Regiment echoed his views. “England,” he surmised. “I don’t give a cuss if I never see it again.”

It is estimated that during any one weekend scores of homes abroad exhibitions are held throughout England. Some cities host several at the one time. An exhibitor for a Spanish company told of one small city in which three organisations were assisting people in their quest to leave Britain, yet they still couldn’t cope with the numbers attending.

He recounted with a smile how one harassed family man, commenting on the continental ambience background music suggested that it might be more appropriate to play the theme tune to The Great Escape movie. Source

The Stranger

The Stranger within my gate,
He may be true or kind,
But he does not talk my talk–
I cannot feel his mind.
I see the face and the eyes and the mouth,
But not the soul behind.

The men of my own stock,
They may do ill or well,
But they tell the lies I am wanted to,
They are used to the lies I tell;
And we do not need interpreters
When we go to buy or sell.

The Stranger within my gates,
He may be evil or good,
But I cannot tell what powers control–
What reasons sway his mood;
Nor when the Gods of his far-off land
Shall repossess his blood.

The men of my own stock,
Bitter bad they may be,
But, at least, they hear the things I hear,
And see the things I see;
And whatever I think of them and their likes
They think of the likes of me.

This was my father’s belief
And this is also mine:
Let the corn be all one sheaf–
And the grapes be all one vine,
Ere our children’s teeth are set on edge
By bitter bread and wine.

Stop This Tyranny

By Nancy Levant

Without fail, the United States is being bureaucratically and financially transformed into another breed of government. Global infrastructures, those specified by Agenda 21, have been laid into place, including the regional governance of states and the dissolving of national borders. This is contrary to the laws of this nation, unconstitutional, and usurpation at its professional finest. It is time for American people to say, “Enough!”

When the one-government-fits-all campaign began in earnest is a question for history to answer, but it has evolved into functional reality in the U.S. The Communitarian goal and law of “community need above individual rights” is a financially laid decoy for the ending of private property and other Constitutional rights guaranteed to we, the people.

The United States government is being dismantled. Our form of government is being morphed into the same system that the European Union operates beneath, and it is called Communitarian Law (see George Washington University and its Communitarian Studies Department for details on your new rights and duties under Communitarian Law).

I strongly suggest that you read Niki Raapana’s new book called 2020 to fully understand how Communitarian Law is dismantling our Constitution. This is a very, very important book. Read “Communitarianism: A Three Level Con Job.”

Freedom under our Constitution rapidly continues to be broken down. Our land is disappearing into the hands of government, land trust organizations, land funds, land development companies, universities, and other grant-funded players in the partnership/non-profit and very interlinked global economic ambush.

Our schools are insane with corruptions of every make and measure, and have become buildings of unethical proportion. Education in America is lost, gone, and replaced by social engineers with direct ties to the U.N. Our children are being trained to be consensus Socialists, and they are learning nothing but servitude to corporations and how to be behavior modified “community consensus” clones.

The mental health screening of the American people is a despicable, unconscionable, and immoral smoke screen of wicked and eugenic proportions. Screenings are masked in flowery, caring language as is the environmental/sustainability double cross and fraud. Mental health screening is about reproductive rights, which are to be taken, and the de-population mandates of Agenda 21. Only those with “desired” genetics will be allowed to have children.

Television is socially re-engineering every American citizen who sits and watches the non-stop envisioning shows and commercials. It has become another addictive substance, and it is transforming us into silent, drugged, mindless, fearful, and obedient subjects of debt, labor, and highly controlled “community” workhorses.

Mass debt orchestration was a key factor in the ability to keep us quiet, occupied, and blind to the take over of this nation. Buying houses and cars we could not afford, and charging everything from automobiles to milk and bread has left the American populace totally and completely vulnerable to banks and foreign debt holders. Now our minds are so preoccupied by personal debt, that we can’t see the Nature Conservancy forests for the trees. More>>

Media Bias On Race Reporting

Falsely Accused

By Fred

[...]

The American media hold a special place in my heart for their faith in diversity. In the recent Duke case, with which I presume everyone is familiar, a lying black whore (she was lying, she was black, and she was a whore: I suppose I should identify her as Snow White’s sister and a pediatric nurse) accused innocent college kids of raping her, whereupon the entire complex of media and governments piled on, ruining the boys’ lives. The racial aspect got tremendous attention: White racists in the South abusing a poor black girl. This is a favorite template of the media.

Many see the hooker of Duke as just trying to get attention or money. Perhaps she was, but she was also trying to get the white kids put in the slam for many years (where, incidentally, they would almost certainly have become the sex toys of a heavily black [prison] population.) This should be a serious crime with heavy penalties. It doesn’t seem to be.

But in the >click>> Tennessee case, the crime was real, and hideous. It didn’t fit the template, though, so both the government and the media tried to smother the crime and to conceal the race of the criminals. This is the government to which I’m supposed to be loyal.

Both raped, tortured and murdered

[...]

Why do the government and the press consciously hide the race of criminals? Part of it is abject cowardice. Part of it is reflex, the journalistic templating that is now almost genetic. Reporters are not thoughtful. White-on-black crime is something you write about. Black-on-white isn’t. Truth doesn’t matter. A reporter wants to keep his job and get along in the news room. You don’t make waves where you work.

The Accused

The deeper reason, though, is otherwise. If the press reported the extent of black crime, [all] hell could easily break loose. There are limits to forbearance, even federally enforced forbearance. Racial animosity is high in the United States but papered over, with mention of it verboten in the media and punished by heavy penalties, such as losing jobs. Things are not getting better. Blacks burn a city every ten years or so. Los Angeles, Cincinnati, DC, Newark, Watts, what have you. Whites are [easily] cowed and submissive but very often quietly hostile.

[...]

What is out there are very high rates of black crime, much of it targeted at whites, with interracial rape being almost entirely black-on-white. The blacks of the slums hate whites. This isn’t my overactive imagination. Check The Color of Crime. The figures come from the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reports, and the National Crime Victimization Survey.

If you have any doubts about the attitude of the media, ask your local TV channel to hold a live debate with Jared Taylor, who compiled the figures. If the media could show his numbers to be false, they would crucify him in a heartbeat. But he’s right and they know it. They are unlikely let him near a microphone.

[...]

The bastardy rate among blacks hovers around [70%] seventy percent, guaranteeing social disaster. The performance of blacks in the schools is horrible and not improving. A great many whites are sick of affirmative action, sick of Jesse and Al, sick of lying news coverage, and sick of living in fear. Hispanics by the way have not a shred of guilt over the problems of blacks.

Blacks are sometimes (quietly) described as a a failed race in permanent custodial care. This may not apply to those of the middle class. It does apply to those of the slums. They are what they are going to be. Affirmative action has indeed produced a middle class, which may have been the best of the available choices, but the underclass is still there, waiting. There you are. I wish it weren’t so, but every indication is that it is so.

New ‘Chinese’ Political Party In Canada

national alliance party, chinese candian

By John Bermingham – The Province (Vancouver)

A new B.C. political party says it wants to bring a Chinese focus to provincial politics. The National Alliance Party, launched only [this month], says its focus is on the 350,000 people in [the province of British Columbia] who are of Chinese heritage.

[In multi-culti Canada, this racist action was bound to happen, considering the vast numbers of ethnic Chinese imported into OUR country every year. There are more than 1.1 million people of Chinese origin living in Canada. Just recently, some emboldened Chinese have begun similar shenanigans in New Zealand. And what are their plans in the U.S. as related by this story?]

The four founders of the party all have such a background. They are Delta, B.C. realtor and party leader Wei Ping Chen, along with a Burnaby student, a Surrey renovator and a Burnaby tourism guide. Chen, 48, is a former university teacher in Beijing who [only] came here in 2000. He says mainland Chinese immigrants tend not to vote in B.C. elections and to ignore local politics — and he wants to change that.

[Just 7 years ago, we invited this foreign guest into our home, and now he has designs to re-arrange OUR "furniture" to suit his own ethno-centric purposes..... such unadulterated arrogance! ]

[...]
Chinese families are being split when breadwinners move back to Asia to work, leaving their wives and kids here [in Canada], Chen said. Others leave [British Columbia] after getting their Canadian citizenship because they can’t get ahead in their new country, he added.

[To avoid "being split", their families are free to re-join the breadwinners in Asia at anytime. And, "getting ahead" here in Canada was probably never the primary intention, but simply a "place" to park their family who are then able to gorge themselves on our free social welfare system, education and shopping malls.  A Canadian passport is father's "return ticket" if certain problems arise in his home country.]

Chen said he thinks [British Columbia] will be better for it if Chinese immigrants can be encouraged to participate in politics. “I would like to encourage them to stay here and solve the problem for them,” he said.

[Perhaps China could use your political skills and solve many of the problems in your home country. Yes?]

Chinese immigrants face language barriers and can feel lonely after arriving, Chen said. In some cases, racial discrimination against them in the workplace makes things worse, he added.

[Of course, the "racial discrimination" or race card would have to be tossed into the ring at some point. Canadians are easily duped into feeling guilty with that old canard. However, there's nothing wrong in his attempt to form an exclusive ethnic Chinese political party in Canada!?]

Chen said he plans to build the National Alliance into both a federal and a municipal party and hopes to field candidates in upcoming elections. But he admits the party is still looking for an office, has very little money and has only signed 20 members to date. “We are just like a baby born,” he said.

[Yes, but babies do grow to maturity and then attempt to take over the entire household. Does his "Nation[al]” Alliance party imply a nation within our established nation of Canada similar to the wording as the Aboriginal nation?]

The party is open to people of all backgrounds, Chen said. “We together are one family in Canada. We are the same,” he said. “I would like to focus [on this] minority group because I think they need more help.”

[Gee, thanks for nothing. Rather disingenuous statements coming from a new political party claiming ethno-centric interests, above all else.]

Chen said he thinks the party is a better alternative to electing Chinese-Canadian politicians to Victoria and Ottawa under the wing of traditional parties, because they tend to forget their promises as they are forced to conform to party lines.

Michael Byers, a politics expert at the Liu Institute of Global Issues, says he doesn’t have a problem with a Chinese [political] party in B.C.

[Hmm, one doesn't bite the hand that feeds him, eh?]

“These are people exercising their rights in a democratic society,” Byers said. “I haven’t seen any indications that this party is racist.” Its arrival will serve as a wake-up call to traditional parties on Chinese concerns.

[If a party of White nationalists were intent on forming a political party to serve the needs of White people, and White people only, there would be no end in hearing about their "racist" agenda. As usual... the usual double standards are always applied here, so it's all quiet on the front.]

“I would be very surprised if they were to elect even a single candidate,” Byers said. “This is a clever advocacy ploy.”

[It's the thought (or intention) that counts!]

David Baxter of the Urban Futures Institute said the party faces the problem of a Chinese community that is too diverse to be a unified political force.

“There isn’t a constituency that is represented by ancestry, any more than one can argue that white politicians represent white people,” said Baxter.

[Oh, really? Look HERE.]

“People in a democracy think that elected representatives are elected to represent everybody.”

Victor Wong, who heads the Toronto-based Chinese Canadian National Council, said the impetus behind the new party is a comment on the fact that traditional parties often run minority candidates in ridings they have no hope of winning. “This party, it’s an indictment on the three parties that they have not been as inclusive as they need to be,” Wong said.

[Wrong!]

Population of China1,321,000,000 (Billion)

Population of Canada —- 33,000,000 (Million)

“As ethnic and racial diversity are translated into political power in the host countries, the pace of immigration will accelerate to the point that might cause citizens, both new and old, to recognize their own peril and perhaps to stop or to slow the process. However, in the meantime, most European countries in the New World and perhaps even the Old World will have been changed beyond recognition and their intellectual capital eroded by socially sanctioned if not government promoted miscegenation”.  Read more…..HERE.

New Uranium Property Acquired

TORONTO, ONTARIO — Pele Mountain Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE: GEM)  today announced the acquisition of an additional uranium property in northern Ontario, approximately 20 kilometres west of its Elliot Lake Uranium Project. Pele is focused on its objective of developing a world class mine and processing facility at Elliot Lake where an inferred resource of 33 million pounds of U3O8 has been outlined with the potential for significant upgrade and expansion. The new property, Elliot Lake West, consists of 161 mining claim units (in 15 claims) covering more than 5,000 acres. Historical drilling at Elliot Lake West reported uraniferous conglomerate beds typical of the Elliot Lake mining camp in the area of Caribou Lake. The best reported intercept was 1.56 lbs/ton U3O8 over an 8-foot width.

Thirteen of the 15 new claims comprised of 134 mining claim units were staked by Pele and the other two claims comprised of 27 mining claim units are the subject of a binding purchase agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, Pele will pay the Vendor a total of $10,000 in cash and issue 20,000 shares in the capital of Pele at an attributed value of $0.85 per share or an aggregate value of $17,000. The agreement remains subject to standard closing conditions and acceptance of regulatory filings. The entire Elliot Lake West property is royalty free.

Political-Correctness Unmasked

From IWC

Anthony Browne’s “The Retreat of Reason–­Political Correctness and the Corruption of Debate in Modern Britain” is just one of a long litany of books written about the scourge of the new McCarthyism that has seized control of every important institution in the Anglophone world.

[...][ Also: Short Definition of Political Correctness]

Political correctness (PC) has been defined as a neo-puritanism that attempts to save souls through assigning taboo or “disease” status to a real discussion of ideas such as immigration. People can avoid “infection” by obeying the taboo and either not participating in or preventing a thoughtful exchange of views on such topics.

[...] [Also:  Explaining Political Correctness]

There are few as intolerant as those who preach tolerance people who transgress politically correct beliefs are not seen just as wrong, … but evil,… to be condemned, silenced and spurned….”

Browne itemizes numerous hallmarks of Political Correctness: guilt by association, ad hominem attacks, support of censorship, according high status to victim-hood, taking offence, lack of humour, etc. Some deserve emphasis.

[Also:  Political Correctness Gone Wild]

On liberal guilt, he says: “The combination of Western guilt and fear of racism has all but killed off the public concern about overpopulation in the last few decades. In the U.S., when population growth was caused by white people having too many babies, the country’s largest environment group, the Sierra Club, campaigned to control population. But now that U.S. population growth is mainly caused by immigration, it has dropped all policies on population, and indeed its funding is dependent on never trying to tackle the immigration issue.”

And of course, the PC have adopted double standards.

[Also:  Political Correctness - U.K. Style]

Ever wonder why it is now illegal in many jurisdictions to publish crime figures broken down by the ethnicity (race) of the offender, yet universities collect racial data to determine who gets in, and to ensure that visible minorities get hired?

In regards to preferential hiring, Browne’s book could have profited from the use of a flagrant Canadian example of “positive discrimination”(i.e., reverse racism and sexism). As the National Post reported on June 27, 2005, the so-called shortfall of qualified applicants to the RCMP academy was due to its gender and racial hiring quotas that required white males to score 20% higher than women and 33% higher than visible minorities on aptitude tests in order to be accepted [as police recruits]. For a while in the mid-90′s, with unmet racial and female recruitment targets co-existing with a five year backlog of Caucasian male applicants, the RCMP had a quiet “no white males” policy.

English: RCMP officer and truck

RCMP officer

[...]Browne’s argument can best be summarized in one sentence. “Political correctness [Pc] promotes the creation of a ‘victim mentality’, discourages people from taking responsibility for their own lives, suppresses free speech, and distorts public debate, leading to bad policies being adopted.”

[....all which are clearly illustrated in the above case example of the once-respected Royal Canadian Mounted Police whose hiring practises are obviously discriminatory against fully-qualified Canadian white males who [then] must score 33% higher in aptitude tests over competing visible-minorities, many, who’re born in other countries.

What ever happened to hiring the best police recruits based on merit and experience? How can the Canadian public have any confidence in “racial-hires” whose primary “qualification” was the colour of their skin? Canada’s majority white population still consists of about 86%… more HERE on this deplorable practice. -Editor]

[...]

Political correctness is a new form of dictatorship, imposed by the self-righteous. It is virtue in a jackboot, lodged in the faces of all those who dare to challenge prevailing doctrine, particularly on immigration. It is an undemocratic societal poison so pervasive that it must be neutralized before it destroys democracy itself.

Denison Mines Reporting 205 Million Lbs.

TORONTO (CP) – Denison Mines Corp. (TSX:DML) said Tuesday a survey of historical resource estimates indicates its holdings around the defunct mine at Elliot Lake in northwestern Ontario hold more than 205 million pounds of uranium oxide.

Denison, which produced 147.3 million pounds of U3O8 at Elliot Lake from 1957 until the underground mine was shut down in 1992, said it has no current plans to reopen the complex but “will continue to review the project in light of the continuing strength in the uranium market.”

Denison added that it “is not treating these historical resources as current as they have not passed any economic test and are not considered to be relevant to current economic assessment parameters,” and “much further work remains to be done to further evaluate this property.”

The new compilation of resource estimates by Scott Wilson Roscoe Postle Associates was based on mine records at the time of the shutdown, and no work has been conducted since.

The study is based on a cut-off grade of 0.8 pound per ton, which was the cut-off for underground leaching in the mine’s final years of production but “may not represent the current economic cut-off grade.”

The underground workings are flooded and shaft and ramp openings are capped, but “all underground haulage and passageways are assumed to be open,” Denison stated.

“Although good infrastructure is present, the mill and tailings areas have all been decommissioned and reclaimed.”
