If you feel you have been 'told off', you wouldn't last an hour in the House of Commons 
I am admittedly an extremist on the point of National self-interest and my political views are definitely of another century-but I do not see that as honerous. Radical conservatives and their moderate or liberal counterparts have ideas that are so irreconcilably at odds, it is difficult not to ignite a passionate or defencive response whenever debating such emotionally charged and contentious issues as these. If I took personally every oblique insinuation or harsh critique thrown my direction, I'd not have the heart to engage in these discussions.
I believe I suggested the Afrikaaners would find refuge in the Netherlands, not Tunbridge Wells.
Completely arbitrary positioning with no significance whatsoever. You are standing on semantics?
Rubbish. You are confusing the 'coloured' social group with Afrikaaners. Afrikaaners are 100% European. The children of a Black African/Indian & white union are regarded as coloured by both the Black S. Africans, the Afrikaaners, and the Coloureds themselves.
Yes, and what few that are left are being butchered or terrorised by Mugabes thugs. Where is the meddling, sanctimonious International community on this? If the situation were reversed and it was a 'white' government victimising non-'whites' the story would be on every news network and in hourly rotation and Countess Madonna would be on the first, first class flight to Harare
Truth and reason never ring pleasantly in the ears of a head in the clouds liberal. You have suggested my indelicate words have caused you some injury. I think your not so subtle implication with this statement has evened the score.
Like I stated earlier. If you feel as if you have been unduly mistreated, I would not suggest a career as an MP.
Why should Occidentals make room for Asians and Africans in our homelands? They have homelands of their own. It's that simple. The modern immigrant cannot be compared with say, the 18th and 19th century settlers who went to America and other undeveloped Lands and built a civilisation from rocks and trees.
The modern immigrant who steps off an air conditioned plane, rents a centrally heated flat, and finds a ready made living as a sales girl at Harrods -is a parasite.
Why you people want to share our tiny island with hordes of Aliens is a mystery to me. It's a psychological disorder to be sure. One that only afflicts the European mind.

Brendan, I am not a Liberal. People who know me will find this
very odd of you!
Be careful what you say about the Afrikaners as it is you who is talking "rubbish", not I. But then I have lived in the country under question for over fifty years and know the research and know the regime and know the people. I know my own people here too, of course, and never the twain shall meet. To say the Boers are 100% white is like saying, hand on heart, that every white American is 100% paleface. You know it isn't true. The Afrikaners know it isn't true and do not dispute it. They are realists. I'm not talking about the small group of radical racists your ideology loves to admire, but the real Afrikaners who have few delusions left about their existence and are moving on. You won't find these trying to garner sympathy out of anyone. They are fully capable of looking after themselves, as are we all here in this volatile place.
Imagine thinking I did not know the difference between a "Coloured" and a Boer! Really, Brendan, where have you been? Who has been whispering sweet nothings in your willing ear? Did you know that the real original Boers used to call the Coloured nation here "brown Afrikaners"? Did you know they used to call the native Africans "the folk"? You see, Afrikaners always knew who was whom. They have no delusions. Some may have gone all nazi when they got into power and crushed the rest of their folk into submission, but it didn't last and it came to pieces and now we are all suffering. Take a lesson. History is capable of repeating itself.
The Liberals, incidentally, think I am a racist and a fascist. Somewhere in there is the truth. Maybe someday someone will be able to see me. Being English can be very trying. No one understands us.
As for little old me not being able to take the heat in the Commons kitchen: well, I don't know. I don't ever want to be politician because slanging it out in the Commons isn't really my cup of tea. It tends to be unproductive. Politics is so stupid and brutal and dishonest. Really not the place for me. I can fight, of course, but I like to reserve my steel for situations where it's really necessary. Because, as every animal knows, if you rush out and blunt your claws on a shadow you may find yourself in deep water when you turn around and see the shadow's owner looming with a pristine blade.
I was referring not to car washers and burger flippers as immigrants but to the sharing of intelligence and skills that characterises every civilized democracy. You will see this exchange happening between the west and the new Asia more and more now that Asia is rising and people with capability are needed to help build new industries. The desalination industry is an example. Many Europeans are going to Saudi Arabia to learn of their methods as they are leading the field in this method. The Arabs are greening their deserts. This will change the entire economic scene for them and open up new sectors. Brazil has just discovered oil deposits. Brazil will be engaging the world's oil workers and expertise to help turn the country into a mega rich nation.
Those kind of immigrants are always in demand. But they are high earners and few in number. To think I was referring to the flood of riff raff that characterises the British immigration scenario is to be carried away by the idea that I am a lefty.
