Multiculturalist Ideology (Part One): A Rationale For Race War Politics
An Examination Of The Logic of Multiculturalism
An Examination Of The Logic of Multiculturalism
The lunatic plan of the UK government to bring 3.5 million Hong Kong Chinese to the UK, and give them British citizenship, stems from an inter-reaction of several inter-related dogmas:
BACKGROUND
Hong Kong might be one of the wealthiest places in Asia, but it also has a poor quality of life for very many of its people. More than one million live in poverty. Even the middle class are struggling as, despite having well paid jobs, they can barely meet their bills. Housing costs are very high and food is expensive.
Property prices are rising at a rate of 20% per annum, not least because wealthy people from mainland China are buying properties. Around 100,000 in Hong Kong do not have a proper home and live in cages, or containers a few feet wide, or doss down anywhere they can. People continue to move to Hong Kong from China.
Inflation is at 5%. The Hong Kong government has so much money that it gives every Hong Kong citizen $6,000 per year.
Hong Kong was a British colony until July 1997, when it was returned to China. The colony consisted of Hong Kong island, that was sovereign British territory, and the New Territories that were leased from China. It was the expiry of the 99-year lease of the New Territories that triggered the return of Hong Kong to China. At the time, the Hong Kongers were adamant that Hong Kong remain one unit and that even the sovereign territory should be given to China. The Hong Kongers did not want independence, they wanted to join China in one territorial block. They got what they wanted.
In December 1984, Margaret Thatcher and Chinese Premier Zhao Ziyang signed the Sino-British Joint Declaration, in which Britain agreed to return not only the New Territories but British Hong Kong itself when the lease term expired. According to the declaration’s terms, Hong Kong was to become a special administrative region under the People’s Republic of China, with a high degree of autonomy apart from foreign and defence policy for a period of 50 years following the end of the lease. Hong Kong would remain a free port with a separate customs territory. Hong Kongers would continue to practice capitalism and political freedoms forbidden on the mainland.
PROTESTS
The protests that consumed Hong Kong for many months, and led to the Chinese clamp down, started in June 2019. The pro-Chinese Hong Kong executive proposed a new law which would enable extradition of Hong Kongers to China. This was a breach of the ‘one country, two systems’ arrangement that had been agreed.
In September 2019, the bill introducing the new extradition law was withdrawn. The protests continued and became increasingly violent. Petrol bombs were used and one protestor was shot with live ammunition. In November 2019, one pro-China lawmaker was stabbed in the street. The campus of Hong Kong’s Polytechnic University was occupied in a stand off between students and the police.
Local council elections resulted in a major victory for the pro-democracy campaigners, who won control of 17 out of 18 councils.
THE OFFER
In July 2020, the Tory Government announced that up to 3.5 million Hong Kongers, and their families including children who had never been British citizens of any description, could move to the UK. In practice, like other immigrants, these people are likely to settle in England – in particular, London. These are ethnic Chinese, with a different heritage and cultural background. Around 80% of all non-Whites vote for a Left-wing party, and this is a common feature across the West.
At first it is proposed that the Hong Kongers will be allowed into the UK on a visa for five years, then they would be allowed to apply for settled status, then apply for citizenship after one year. Presently, British National Overseas Passport holders in Hong Kong, of which there are presently around 350,000, are only entitled to visa-free access to the UK for six months.
Boris Johnson declared that China had committed a ‘clear and serious breach’ of the Sino-British joint declaration, which was to guarantee certain freedoms in Hong Kong for 50 years after 1997. Dominic Raab, the Foreign Secretary said that there would be no limit on numbers, no quotas, and that the application process would be very simple, saying: ‘This is a special, bespoke, set of arrangements developed for the unique circumstances we face and in light of our historic commitment to the people of Hong Kong.’
British National Overseas Passport holders would be able to come to the UK immediately. There would be no salary thresholds.
Lisa Nandy, the Labour shadow foreign secretary, said that the UK also had a responsibility for the welfare of those who stayed in Hong Kong. She additionally said she wanted an inquiry into police brutality in Hong Kong.
China’s population is in excess of 1.4 billion, or which 1.4 billion and more live satisfactory lives and have enjoyed a major increase in living standards in the last few decades. Those who have trouble with the Chinese communist dictatorship are those who actively oppose it. Were the Hong Kong protestors to cease their campaign of opposition, they are highly unlikely to suffer ill treatment.
Independence for Britain’s colonies, which the majority of the newly formed countries wanted, led in very many cases to dictatorships and genocide. India was an exception. In South Africa and Rhodesia, the introduction of black majority rule has not been either an economic or political success. Yet the UK did not grant the entire populations of those newly formed countries the right to move to the UK and claim British citizenship.
The population of the UK is around 68 million, in a small island, the most densely populated part of which is the England – in particular London. The UK population is forecast to reach at least 75 million by 2050. The primary cause of the population increase is the result of the policy of mass immigration and the high birth rate of the immigrant communities. Immigration in 2019 reached 677,000 for that year. To put that in perspective, from 1066 until 1950, excluding Ireland which was an integral part of the UK, immigration totalled a quarter of a million at the most, mainly Hugeunots and Jews. Post-World War II immigration has been on a completely different scale, and the scale of it in the 21st century is as different again.
In the first televised debate during the EU Referendum, Boris Johnson said that the levels of mass immigration needed democratic consent and further pointed out that ‘a city the size of Newcastle is arriving every year’. He is fully aware that the levels of immigration are without public support, and is fully aware of the strain on the UK’s, in particular England’s, infrastructure.
The population of England is around 56 million. Wales has a population of around 3 million, Scotland’s population is around 5.5 million, and Northern Ireland’s is around 1.8 million. The 2011 census placed the size of the ethnic minority population as being in excess of 8 million, and that figure is far higher today. Then there is the illegal immigrant population. In some cities, such as London and Leicester, the English are a minority. Yet, in addition to ‘a city the size of Newcastle [already] arriving every year’, the Tory Government offered to bring to the UK a population greater than that of Wales!
Of importance, the 3.5 million Hong Kong Chinese are not the total population of Hong Kong. The total figure is around 7.5 million. This means that there are another 4 million who might be left in limbo unless they can, somehow, convince officials that their lost papers need replacing and that their new details are accurate, or convince British officials that their papers are genuine.
The scale of illegal immigration should not be underestimated. Apart from the abuse of the asylum system (if one can even call it that), and apart from the practice of illegal immigrants being granted permission to stay under the 14-year rule (where immigrants can stay if they have been in Britain that length of time), MigrationWatch UK reported in June 2014 that the total number of illegal immigrants was estimated to be as high as two million. This two-million figure is likely to be true given earlier government and other estimates, and given that the illegal immigrants keep pouring in (see The Ponzi Class, Ponzi Economics, Globalization and Class Oppression in the 21st Century, page 300).
One of the greatest costs of mass immigration is the impact on housing. In February 2017, Lord Green, told the House of Lords that ‘The difference between high and zero migration is 110,000 households formed every year. That is 300 every day. To put the point slightly more dramatically, that would mean building a home every five minutes, night and day, for new arrivals until such time as we get those numbers down.’ Lord Bourne stated: ‘Net migration will probably fall as a result of Brexit, but it will be some time before that happens.’ Lord Bourne said that an estimated 45% of the growth in new households was due to net migration. This meant that almost half of the new houses being built would be taken by new immigrant families.
The cost of housing immigrants is not cheap. For example, in November 2016, it was reported that the Sube family, immigrants from France who were originally from Cameroon, had just moved into a new £425,000 detached property at taxpayer’s expense after they had complained about their previous house being too small. They had already turned down the offer of a five-bed council house, saying it also was too small. The Subes, a family of ten (eight children), were estimated to be receiving £44,000 in various welfare payments and state income. The Subes had moved to France 15 years ago and become EU citizens, and so were qualified to be able to move to Britain and receive British welfare.
In October 2016, ONS data showed that despite people moving out of London, due to high housing costs, the scale of immigration meant that the capital’s population was increasing by 120,000 per year. In December 2016, the ONS disclosed figures which showed that 70% of the children born in London had at least one parent born abroad and that the figure had reached 33% for England and Wales, up from 21.2% in 2000, with 230,811 with at least one parent born abroad out of a total of 697,000 births. London’s population increased by 480,000 between 2011 and 2015 (a 5.7% increase) and was set to reach 9.8 million by 2025. London was the only city in Britain to experience a fall in the numbers of those 19–21 years old after 2011. Also, for people 45 and older, 90,000 more moved away than arrived. English flight and the repopulation of London continued apace.
The population density in Sweden is 25 people per square kilometre. In the USA it is 36; in New Zealand it is 47; in Spain it is 94; in France it is 118; in Italy it is 206; in Germany it is 240; in England it is no less than 430. In China, the figure is 153 per square kilometre.
Illegal immigrants are routinely crossing the English Channel, and the Border Force patrol boats ‘rescue’ them and help them to get to England. In London, despite constituting 13% of the population, 58% of murder suspects are black.
The killing of George Floyd in the USA, led to an outburst of anti-White protests across both the USA and the UK, led by BLM and BLMUK. Statues were defaced, illegally toppled and taken down. Films, television programmes, songs, and opinions are being banned. In the UK, there has been an aggressive anti-White agenda, including on mainstream media. Both the police and the Tories have been acquiescent – to put it no more strongly.
In 2020, the UK economy entered a very deep recession, with an expected rise in unemployment (currently millions of employees are ‘furloughed’ with the government paying their wages). Referring to stock market chaos in March, the Bank of England governor, Andrew Bailey, told Sky News: ‘We basically had a pretty near meltdown of some of the core financial markets. We were seeing things that were pretty unprecedented, certainly in recent times. We were facing serious disorder.’ The Bank of England reacted with £200 billion of QE (printing money), of which Bailey said: ‘I think we would have a situation where in the worst element, the Government would have struggled to fund itself in the short run.’ In other words, the Government would have been gone bust and been unable to pay its bills. The Bank announced yet another £100 billion of QE, taking to total figure to £745 billion since the 2008 financial crisis. By May 2020, the total government debt had reached £1.95 trillion.
It is against this backdrop that the Tory Government announced, without any consultation, that they would promote the immigration of 3.5 million Hong Kong Chinese to the UK, which in practice means England. This 3.5 million is in addition to all the other immigrants and there would be no limit or quotas. The Government’s policy is to abandon any control over the levels of immigration – the exact opposite of the EU campaign slogan of ‘Take Back Control’.
Using figures and statistics produced by MitgrationWatchUK and the then cost of houses, I estimated in Brexit Means Brexit: How the British Ponzi Class Survived the EU Referendum that allowing around 3.5 million EU immigrants to stay in the UK would cost around at least £500 billion in housing. The numbers of Hong Kong Chinese are almost the same and so the housing costs will be broadly the same. Then there is the cost of housing all the other immigrants. Then there are all the other costs, such as schools, hospitals, roads, sewers, railways and the whole infrastructure of local government, etc. Then there is the impact on the wage rates for the English as wages are forced down.
The Government will fund these costs in a number of ways. They will help themselves to tax revenues, they will print and borrow money, they will draw upon the welfare system (such as social housing) and allocate that for the benefit of the immigrants, and they will simply not pay the costs and instead offload those costs as unpaid bills onto the general public. Queues, traffic jams, waiting lists will get longer, and fewer English people will be able to own a home of their own. The UK already has a desperate housing shortage.
The government might hope that they will collect more in tax revenues from the Hong Kong Chinese than they pay out to them in benefits, but there will be no provision for future entitlements (such as the cost of births, education of the children, or future pension payments) and public services will be increasingly underfunded. The government will assume that yet more immigrants will enter the UK and so there will be more tax revenues available at some time in the future. This is a Ponzi scheme. It is Ponzi economics, and it is a fraud (see The Ponzi Class, the chapter ‘Ponzi Economics’).
THE DOGMA
That the UK government wishes to get involved in Hong Kong stems from the political aspects of globalization and a rejection of genuine patriotism. The politically correct dislike patriotism intensely. The Frankfurt School, who are rightly credited with developing political correctness, pushed for the adoption of so-called ‘constitutional patriotism’ (a version of civic nationalism). Leading this was Jurgen Habermas, who defined constitutional patriotism as ‘patriotism based upon the interpretation of recognized, universalistic constitutional principles within the context of a particular national history and tradition’. Thus, with constitutional patriotism the social bond in a state should be ‘juridical, moral and political, rather than cultural, geographical and historical’. Thus, peoples’ culture and ethnicity would have no role in patriotism, which would be based on attachment for universalist ideals rather than attachment to a dominant culture of society.
Consequently, the British Government does not see anything wrong with importing millions of Hong Kong Chinese into the UK, in addition to millions of other immigrants from the Third World. For them, they do not regard defending the interests of the indigenous nation to be their role. They regard the UK as belonging to them and that they can invite anyone from anywhere and give them British citizenship, provided they pass a ‘pub quiz’ (as Sajid Javid, a former Home Secretary, described the citizenship test).
This stance fully complies with the multiculturalist agenda. That the Hong Kong Chinese are of a different culture, including religious culture, is not a reason to keep them out, but a reason to bring them in. The UK would be ‘enriched’ by their presence. Mass immigration is seen as desirable, and immigrants can help the overthrow of society (we are presently witnessing that with the destruction of statues etc). To the communists, the breakdown of social cohesion is desirable.
Disagreement with these policies is denounced as ‘hate’ by the politically correct. Political correctness can be defined as ‘the mechanism for the enforcement of neo-Marxist ideology’ (see The Genesis of Political Correctness: The Basis of a False Morality, page 19). This definition splits political correctness into two parts. First, the ideology, and second, the manner in which that ideology is imposed. The power of enforcement of political correctness demonizes those deemed heretics and allows the imposition of the cultural Marxist agenda, irrespective of public opinion. The policies of globalization, constitutional patriotism, multiculturalism and mass immigration are all key parts of that agenda.
Ponzi economics funds all the above.
