This is an editorial written by an British citizen, published in a
National newspaper He did quite a job; didn't he? Read on, please!

IMMIGRANTS, NOT BRITS MUST ADAPT.
I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we
are offending some individual or their culture. Since the
terrorist attacks on the 7th of the 7th we have experienced a
surge in patriotism by the majority
of Brits. However, the disgust about the attacks had
barely settled when the "politically correct! " crowd began
complaining about
the possibility that our patriotism was offending others.

I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against
anyone who is seeking a better life by coming to Britain, Our
population is almost entirely made up of descendants of
immigrants. (The Danes, Romans ect.) However, there
are a few things that those who have recently come to
our country, and apparently some born here, need to
understand. This idea of the Brits being a multicultural community
has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our national
identity. As Britain's we have our own culture, our
own society, our own language and our own lifestyle. This
culture has been developed over centuries of struggles, trials,
and victories by millions of men and women who have sought
freedom.


We speak ENGLISH, not Indian, Urdu, Arabic, Chinese,
Japanese, Russian, or any other language
Therefore, if you wish to become part
of our society, learn the language!
"Land of Hope & Glory" is our motto. This is not some
Christian, right wing, political slogan We adopted this motto
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.

If the 'Union Jack' flag offends you, or
you don't like our QUEEN, then you
should seriously consider a move
to another part of this planet. We
are happy with our culture and have
no desire to change, and we really
don't care how you did things where
you came from. This is
OUR COUNTRY,
our land, and our lifestyle. Our Laws give every citizen the
right to express his opinion and we
will allow you every opportunity to do so!
But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping
about our flag, our lifestyle our government, or our
way of life, I highly encourage you
take advantage of one other great BRITISH freedom,
THE RIGHT TO LEAVE.

Just like the Vikings, the Romans, the Saxons did...

I would think the majority of censorship for fear of offending others has been done mostly by people who fear offending, not by those who may be offended. I've lost count of the amount of times I've read news reports of things that have been banned for fear of offending, and then when they ask a representative of whoever it is that's supposed to be offended they always say "They didn't consult us about it"...

Im surprised this article was allowed to be printed theres bound to be some peo[le moaning about it and saying its racist.
 
It would only be racist if it wasn't so humorous

<<This idea of the Brits being a multicultural community
has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our national
identity. As Britain's we have our own culture>>

I think he meant Britons...

>>We speak ENGLISH<< So thats the Scots Irish and Welsh (or the rest of Britain ) alienated by the language then...

>>We adopted this motto
because Christian men and women,
on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is
clearly documented.<<

This nation was founded well before christianity and given our penchance for persecuting catholics (the first chrisains) I don't really think we can bang the drum on this one

Union Flag is only a Jack if flown on a ship.

>>But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping

THE RIGHT TO LEAVE.<<


So no Complaining about the Government eh, Thats democracy...

Funny though I don't actually hear any immigrants moaning about the country, I hear British people in an attempt to make people feel less intimidated "moaning" and I hear people who thrive on intimidation and who are afraid of change, "moaning"

I am offended by all organized religion and the monarchy.

Does this mean I am going to get deported?

This is a fake letter that's been circulated frequently as fact, of course this would never had been printed in the national press.

Written at home by a mildly intelligent person disgruntled with immigrants in the U.K.
Mildly racist nonsense wrapped in the Union Jack designed to appeal to the patriotic heart in all Brits.

Depends on whether or not you let Sting have a quiet jar down the local boozer without giving him a dry slap...

Spot on - I know Muslims who are amazed at all the ban the word "Christmas" crap....most of them celebrate Christmas in some way themselves, although obviously not as a religious festival (like 99% of us I guess.) BNP-esque, badly written twaddle like the original post won't help though and has no place on this forum if you ask me. If I wanted to read that I'd go on www.ignorantbigot.com. It just sterotypes all "immigrants" as being the same and if you open your eyes, or even talk to a few you'd soon find out that they're just people.
