The White Season - Rivers of blood (BBC Doc) 1/8

Enoch powell's speech about immigration (1968)

What do the words "white working class" conjure in your mind? Knives, binge drinking, fecklessness, hoodies, slags, yobs, povvoes? That would about cover it.

Why do we allow ourselves, even in the privacy of our own heads, to wield such hateful terms towards this particular minority group? The BBC's new White season which began last Friday is unlikely to provide any answers. It lacks a polemic in defence of the white working class. It is a defence long overdue.

My father worked in a greengrocers' shop for 35 years; my mother was a housewife before she committed suicide in 1987. They were both lifelong Labour voters. My mother hanged herself in the house she lived in all her life, in Southall, west London, a town that had changed beyond all recognition. It is today the least white place in the whole of Britain.

She wrote in her suicide note: "I hate Southall, I feel so alone." In case anyone dare accuse her of any racism, she may have hated Southall, but my mother was incapable of hating people. She worked in the last years of her life as a dinner lady in an all-Asian school and was much loved. But she was lost. Her world had disappeared....

Will great Britain ever learn, or should I say the goverment, we are in a recession and still the gates are open for anyone and everyone to come in and abuse the system, not everyone but most who come here have no respect, for anything or anyone, you cannot say boo to a goose for fear of being branded a racist, it makes me not want to bring children up with such a bleak future.

@UnyieldingDefiance Well unfortunately, many white people have clearly become suicidal. All of our major cities, from Los Angeles to Berlin are soon to become minority white areas. How can a civilization survive when foreign invaders occupy and control all of its major cities?

@LeamingtonSteve You should be proud to say it not sad.

[UnyieldingDefiance]

@1776Matthew 2? More like four or five, I've even seen middle/upper class families with four or five children, we haven't all become suicidle.

Labour are just like any other leftist party with Communist leanings claim to defend the rights of the working class and then call them uneducated and low class when they show any patriotism. Communists are the ultimate Bourgeois because they want to control all the money and all of your property.

Unfortunetly many of the working class are still suckered into believing that Labour are the voice of the working class, they are not, they are selling out our race, our industries and our country.
