Lurking Under Societies Surface

The NHS is Britain's great social melting pot. Certainly from my observations, about 40% of the staff are born overseas, and about a quarter of its recipients are seemingly also born abroad.

Five Hundred Thousand Dysfunctional Families In UK .....

But it's also the only place outside of the more fleeting brushes on public mass transport, where the social classes meet for any length of time.

A Social Policy Failure

I have recently had cause to to be in three British town or cities recently for shopping purposes ... one was quite small, one medium sized, and the last was a major city. One thing struck me about all of them.

Empty Shops ... A Feature Of Many High Street These Days.

The high streets were all squalid depressing affairs. I don't mean so much the architecture, although they all looked a bit run down. Many of the shops in the smallest high street were closed, or charity shops, but it wasn't that which struck me the most.

No, it was the numbers of apparently aimless, and I assume unemployed, younger men and women to be seen in every one of them.

Beauty Is In The Eye Of The Beholder

Some social scientists working for the think tank ResPublica, are suggesting that unless you have a household income of £41,000pa, you can't enjoy or access beauty. 

 

Free Beauty - Kelvin Museum Glasgow

That those in social housing, are somehow unable to see a tree, visit a museum, walk to a park, or get a bus to a beauty spot .... in fact, that they are unable to appreciate beauty through lack of money ..... I have never read such claptrap in my entire life.

 

Labour Despise Working Class

Gordon Brown is fighting for his political legacy as well as his political life. He faces being a "no win" PM, a fate that he has feared, and is usually judged a failure by history, something that has paralysed his political thinking since he was gifted his job by Blair. He bottled calling the election then, when he most certainly would have won (albeit with a smaller majority), and has slowly lost chances ever since.

We have discussed the fact that he had been expected to lose the general election, but also that polls had suggested that he may have just squeezed past the post but then came the gaffe.

While 'meeting the public' in a safe labour seat, he bumped into a elderly woman who suggested that immigration was an issue along, with the students fees, and the economy. Brown appeared to answer the questions including stressing that he did understand voters' concerns about immigration. He always 'understands' their concerns but ignores them (I understand the aims of Islam but I don't support them).

Anyway as he walked away from the encounter, he was heard on microphone to call the woman a 'bigot' .... she was white, working class, and had always voted labour. In fact the core of what Labour should be fighting for, but she was dismissed as 'bigoted'.

Brown has since 'apologised', and grovelled that "I am a penitent sinner", and later just spun the event "I thought she was talking about expelling all university students from here who were foreigners. I misunderstood it."

There is nothing he can say or do to hide the fact that under current Labour ideology these days, white elderly and working class, is to be 'bigoted'. This why the BNP are predicted to make headway in Labour heartlands such as Barking and Dagenham.

Brown will not be the Prime Minister after this election ........ as the Conservative leader said of the row, 'Gordon Brown's "bigoted woman" comment speaks for itself'.

The Life and Death of the Working Class

Politicians often say things like "Things can only get better". Usually they are referring to society or the economy when this nonsense is being spouted, but after forty years of Neo-Marxist social policies, they usually keep their mouths shut about the relentless rise of the underclass.

The welfare state was intended to help people get back to work, attain universal education and promote 'equality' of opportunity for the citizens of this "New Jerusalem" after the war. Well maybe for a brief period in the 1950's and early 1960's this looked attainable but by the end of the 1960's this dream had turned sour. Mass non European immigration was on the start of its relentless rise, promoted by the left, against the interests of the white working class whom the left secretly despised for their conservatism and innate lack of internationalism.

The first of the welfare families were developing, for whom not working and living off the back of others was a lifestyle choice and hardcore unemployment was developing for the first time in the UK. By the 1980's any hope of the 'New Jerusalem' in a socialist paradise were all but dead. However all the socialist theorists that further education produced in the 1970's were now driving social policies in the UK so the experiment carried on.

Immigration couldn't be tackled because these failed socialists became the instigators of political correctness and cried "Racist" at anyone objecting to two million Pakistanis arriving on these shores, demanding houses and welfare benefits.

The single parent explosion in the UK was so great, that we now have more bastards (Children born out of wedlock) than at any other time in our history, and the rise is similar in other European countries. In Europe, figures range from 3% in Cyprus to 55% in Estonia. In Britain the rate is 42% (2004). The European average of 31.6% but historically in the 20th century the UK illegitimacy rate has risen from 4.0% (one in every 20 births) to over 40% (one in every 2.5 births) today

This fulfilled the anti marriage agenda of some on the left, who had been much influenced by the 'free love' movement, which saw marriage as bondage for women (men usually say that when trying for free sex).

And linked to all of this is the rise of the "underclass". A feckless, uneducated, anti immigrant, anti culture, criminally inclined, mass of white lumpen proletariat, who represent what's left of the traditional 'working class' that socialists thought could be led into a socialist paradise (with suitable leaders of course!).

We now live with the consequences of this social experiment .... drunken city centres and streets, gangs of feral boys who hunt in packs, TV shows obsessed with the lowest common denominator and instant talentless 'celebrity', whole council estates where no one works, fourth generation single parents with great grandmothers aged little more than fifty (no grand fathers of course as this is a matriarchal society).

Wherever we are heading, it looks as though the Marxists managed to bring down our society in the end by promoting social policies that destroyed the social cohesion of the UK, and left the very idea of a working class as laughable, being maintained only by rich socialists such as Billy Bragg .... who usually live as far away from the "working class" as they can manage (e.g a village in Dorset), whilst singing anthems to working class solidarity.
