British Multiculturalism - One Man's Experience
We received a testimonial from one of our readers, of his experiences of the current climate in Britain. We shall call him "Doug" to disguise his identity. In his own words, unedited, this is his account:
Why its time to go
This story starts in Bristol city in the SW of the United Kingdom. In June 2003 I decided to leave that city to return to Scotland the Country of my youth. The reason for that return was simple, I had witnessed a series of events, which had shocked and depressed me.
The worst of these was a serious assault against a student, he was walking home from a night out, he was causing no harm, the area was St Pauls, a notoriously crime ridden area, favoured by immigrants, and Afro Caribbeans. The student was set upon and his mobile stolen, he was left bloodied and unconscious, we went to help but we were no match for the attackers who fled instantly.
The other events in Bristol, which prompted my return North, included the introduction of armed police onto the streets of part of Bristol, this was done to combat the armed gang violence between black gangs. Bristol is the UK's crack capital. These gangs were a mix of Afro Caribbean "Yardies" and Somalian tribesmen, as well as a few indigenous hangers on. People who lived in these areas where subjected to endless robberies and assaults by drug addicts, crackheads etc. I decided that this was not for me. I packed my car and left. As I was leaving I noticed a large queue on the pavement I had seen the queue many times full of people of African and Middle Eastern extraction, they were outside the local Asylum seeker help centre. I paid little attention.
I was originally brought up in the Scottish lowlands a beautiful area of rolling hills and moor land, one of the least populated parts of the UK. On my arrival at my parents house I knew I had made a good decision, I immediately felt at home, amongst the trees and hills.
Anyway after a few months I started to set my mind to careers and money, without which we all know you don't get very far. I had friends in Glasgow a hundred miles North I decided to head up and look at opportunities. I have always liked Glasgow, it was once the richest city in the British Empire (per capita). A place with a chequered history but a good vibrant city. Well after a while I decided to move there, I chose to move to an area in the south side of the city, Pollokshields. This is area was one of the UK's first garden suburbs, massive houses, and beautiful large tenement apartments. I decided to purchase an apartment; it was one of the few areas I could afford given the UK's housing price boom. I had high hopes and was full of ideas and expectation.
It began the first night, the upstairs neighbours began shouting and screaming, a man was hitting his wife, the noise was unbearable, they were Pakistani, the area was home to the largest Pakistani Muslim community in Scotland. I had looked at the area and was bedazzled by the ornate Georgian architecture; I had forgotten to take a look at the more important social dimension.
Pollokshields is large area, E Pollokshileds where I live is majority Pakistani Muslim neighbourhood. I walked the streets I smiled at my neighbours they mostly ignored me. A car drove by one day a youth stuck their head out of a car and shouted, "White bastard" at me. A week later I noticed a young man driving aggressively on to a junction nearly hitting another oncoming motorist, he jumped out of his car shouted "White Bitch" at the driver then sped off. The same week I was walking past my Local Park, I watched as a young boy off about eight was chased from the Park crying by two young UK Pakistanis, I shouted as the boy was obviously very distressed, the other boys looked at me confused, and shouted something in another language I did not understand.
I took all of the above in my stride, I put it down to teething troubles in the "Multicultural garden" It would get better just give it time.
Well a week after that mid March 2004 a young Native Glaswegian boy was abducted, at the end of my street by four Pakistani Muslims, tortured and then burned alive, I won't go into details but as you may know Kriss Donald suffered an horrific death and for no apparent reason whatsoever other than he was white.
It was at this point I knew that I had fallen out of the frying pan and into the fire. My Multicultural fantasies were in tatters. I tried to sell my apartment no body was buying except the Muslims, I tried to rent it, and people loved the flat but the area was a hard sell. Few months later my German neighbours moved to Greece, my only friends in the community, their flat was sold to Muslims, they opened an Islamic School in the apartment, I complained, I was ignored, the whole block of flats became home to mostly Muslims and me, plus one seventy year old lady upstairs! I was stuck!
This week beginning of February 2007 I am finally able to sell up, I will be out of here by May. I have learned a lot, I have lived with the Muslims, I have learned that they have no desire to integrate into European culture or the European value system, I have learned that they have no interest in UK culture or anything else, they have Islam. Islam consumes them, it owns them, and it is them. That is what they are they are Muslim, a Muslim is loyal to Islam, Islam is a theocratic ideology, its goal is the spread of Allah's will, this task is the task of all Muslims. Muslims engage with us the "Kuffar" Not because they want to, but because they have to, if they did not have to they wouldn't.
I have met kind and courteous Muslims, I believe there are many types of people in this world, but Islam cancels this out, it homogenises whole nations, it takes away individual reason and liberty, I see this first hand in the eyes of uneducated Pakistani women who have been brought to Glasgow from the far off mountains of Kashmir. I also see it in the eyes of second and third generation Muslims, who just don't like the West, they live in a world which is ultimately incompatible with European values, they seek solace in a religion which blew out of the desert 1400 yrs ago, they seek solace in Mosques paid for with Wahabist oil dollars, the Muslims are at war with themselves, they want the lifestyle of the West, but they just don't like us! And I have decided that I can't like Islam, like many like-minded people I see it as an unmitigated threat to the values Europe should hold dear.
Now that Tony Blair is about to vacate office, people ask him what he believes his legacy will be. It will not be Iraq, it will be the beginning of a process of the Islamisation of the UK, Balkan Britain is upon us, I have seen it first hand, I have lived a small version of it, and when Britain finally appears out of its economic boom, and there is pressure on jobs, and services, the real effects of Multicultural polarisation will appear. Shattered unconnected communities in competition with each other but with no common value system or identity, unable to join together to achieve a common goal.
The New Labour government has ridden the world economic boom and told us it was their skill which has brought us prosperity, all I see is a Britain awash with disconnected and bitter asylum seekers, some battle hardened, mix with drunken drug addled youth. I also see the rise of superstition of which Islam is a large part.
The policies of the Neo Marxists with their reliance on abstractions such as "Human Rights" are leading us down a very very dangerous path; their international global misery is upon us.
The world is on the move, the invasion of Europe is not a conscious thing on the part of the Muslims and immigrants but it is inevitable, given the pressure on global resources, ideological expansionism in Islam, and the plummeting birth rates amongst indigenous Europeans. I am afraid that people like Tony Blair should heed the cliché statement "The road to hell is paved with good intentions" The West is making a Faustian pact with Islam, and we will pay the price, if things don't change.
I am still looking for a home.
Well these thoughts all came from a place I never imagined I would be, a place I don't feel at home in, namely my own country. The Liberal elites are the real enemy, the Muslims are just doing what they are supposed to do, I don't blame them, but they are not Europeans, and I don't like their values or ideology, because Islam is not a religion in the Western sense it's a theocratic ideological construct, with global ambitions, our leaders neglect this fact at our peril.
I hear the Canadian Rockies are nice this time of year?

"Doug"
Australia is also nice, especially around Newcastle where I live. Think the place of plenty, this is it.

A moving account and, unfortunately, depressingly familiar in many of its components.
I do question one of Doug's observations: "the invasion of Europe is not a conscious thing on the part of the Muslims and immigrants..."
I recall years ago listening on BBC R4 news to an account of a speech made by Ayatollah Khoemeni in which he urged muslims in the ME to move to western countries and take them over for Islam from within. The attitudes, demands and behaviour of many muslims now in Europe suggest they are here to do exactly that.

Doug,
If you can, come to America.As I said to my mother when she urged me to retain my Dutch Nationality("So you have someplace safe to go..." she said.) If we're not safe in the United States,we're not safe anywhere.You will find like minded freinds here.

Doug,
The Canadian Rockies are beautiful any time of year.
If I were moving to Toronto or Vancouver, I would be very careful to check out the neighbourhood before settling---although I'm sure, after your experience in Glasgow, you'd do the same. Elsewhere in Canada, even in large cities, I don't think you'll see scenes like the ones you describe in Bristol or Glasgow.
But, wherever, you'd find that the vast majority of Canadians are quite complacent about the Islamist threat. Last summer's arrests in Toronto of 18 young Canadian-born Muslims on terrorism charges failed to wake most of us. Your experience could be very valuable in educating Canadians.
If you're ready for life in the North, Whitehorse is a fine spot.

I hope and pray for a free Scotland that will re-establish righst and freedoms that the liberals in Westminister have sold out for votes. I always wonder why the Middle East screams so loudly for the West to "leave" and yet they have such agreat desire to come here and live among us in our countries? I have the perfect solution, they all go back there, and stay, and we even pay for their one-way ticket as "good riddance". Instead, like you, we are being pushed from our own neighborhoods, cities and country. And our government ignores it as long as the big corporations aren't having any trouble making campaign donations. The mountains are always beautiful but the old saying is "you can't eat the scenery", you need a way to survive, and if you have committed the awful offense of being born a white male and are not a bureaucrat or related to one, you'll have a tough time earning a livlihood in rural areas, you might better return to the land of your youth, where at least you have some connections, and draw the line there. Yet predominantly exiled Scots founded and built this country so more are always welcome. But I hate to see the ancestral homelands fall victim to the new black plague.

When the powers that be in Scotland promote their "One Scotland, many cultures" line, they have the same credibility as the sheep in Animal Farm chanting "Four legs good, Two legs bad".

There is not much difference and given time we are heading right into the fire as well. We are already overrun with illegal immigrants and have problems with the Muslim population. Hispanics are taking over the SW and in realty are running rampant everywhere. Until we Westerners as a group stand up and say enough we don't stand a chance. I have my doubts it will EVER happen. We have become complacent, intimidated and unwilling to truly stand up and sacrifice if need be. We no longer act as we have a common interest and I guess will silently go into the night as we are absorbed by either the Muslim or Hispanic culture. What ever happen to the blood of William Wallace, Patrick Henry or Robert E Lee?

"the Muslims are just doing what they are supposed to do, I don't blame them"
sorry doug, you should blame the muslims as any other sane person would do. This is not the kind of mentality that can free us from them.

Avoid Dearborn, Michigan...that is muslim central in the good ole` US of A. It is plain as the nose on my face - if we don't cease muslim immgration into Western countries we are finished. We (Australia) brought them in following the 1982 Lebanese War. Most settled in Sydney's western suburbs and they have been nothing but f***ing trouble ever since. Even in Melbourne many of followers of Islam cause trouble wherever they can. It's common knowledge that once they get enough numbers up they start demanding special treatment and calling for their Sharia Law crap. Western leaders would have to be barking mad to bring any more of these people into the West. Islam is simply NOT compatable with Judeo-Christian societies fullstop!

Europe is negligent when it comes to upholding traditional western values. Blame post-modernism, blame cynicism, blame the muddle headed liberal establishment. These are things that need to be removed and the people we need to push out of power. Then we can reclaim our countries for real westerners of whatever colour.

As far as moving to Canada to escape the depressing situation you are describing here don't hold your breath. Its slowly happening here too. Newmarket Ontario; just weeks ago landowners tried to prevent a radical Islamic cleric known for speaking out against western values from buying property to start a mosque. The citizens had no legal reason to stop him and the mosque plans to open soon. Brooks Alberta; Due to a shortage of workers because of the economic boom there, Muslims are moving in in large numbers. Brooks, a relatively small city is looking forward to a large mosque being built there. Curtains have been placed around the community indoor pool when the Muslim women are present, because the men of the community are not allowed to look at them. Quebec; Citizens of a smaller city there are having laws passed that when immigrants come there to live they must abide by certain Canadian standards, because of a growing outspoken population of Muslims moving in. The residents of this town had confrontations with the Muslims during a town meeting held to discuss these bylaws. Reports are circulating that elements of terrorist sympathizers (including Muslims) helped vote Stephen Dion in as leader of the opposition Liberal party and the Liberals are now pushing to have the terrorist laws ,passed in Canada several years ago to protect our society, to have them repealed. Incidentally it was a different Liberal leader at the time that had introduced them. Muslim leaders in Ontario have stated they are going to do everything they can to oust Conservative minority Prime Minister Steven Harper because of his support of Israel during the Lebanon war last year, and for reportedly "ignoring" Muslim opinion on Middle East issues. So unfortunately Canada is heading in a similar direction. In about 10-15 years we will be like Britain. They already tried to sneak Sharia law through in Ontario for some civil disputes. Fortunately it was pushed aside for now. I,m sure this is only the beginning.

I can't help mentioning that if you want a good place to move to, try Western Australia. The economy is booming, life is pretty peaceful, wages are good. On the downside, real estate is expensive but no more than your current location, I expect.
If you are a teacher or police officer, you should have no trouble getting work.
Just bring sunscreen and your bathers.
