Dear Joseph (Mr Harker),

 

I would just like to say how much I enjoyed your refreshingly honest comment in today's (Wednesday's) Guardian ("Let whites decide who can live here").

 

It is already too late to declare Britain a whites-only nation (even if it were desirable), but it is not too late to insist on ethnic Britons (Europeans) remaining the dominate ethnic group. They are, after all, the original colonisers and native inhabitants of this continent, as well as being the creators of the civilisation which has attracted so many others to come here.

 

Obviously, as an ethnic European myself, I am biased, but I believe that there are very good objective reasons also.

 

1) For many reasons it is important that a large majority of the population retains a strong, personal (and genetic) link to its own history. I can well understand that ethnic minorities feel little enthusiasm for British and European history, which, as Greg Dyke might put it, are "hideously white".

 

2) With all the sizable ethnic minorities we already have in the country it is important for native British culture, with its deep historical roots, to remain dominant, not just because it is indigenous and simply "be-longs" here far more than any other, but also because it is genuinely advanced (relatively speaking) and very tolerant. At the moment no ethnic minority, or combination of them, can seriously contest native British (European) dominance, but if that were to change, which it may well do if immigration is allowed to continue at its present rate, we (or our descendents) could find ourselves with very serious problems.

 

3) The different races, languages and cultures of mankind only arose because in the past human populations were effectively isolated from one another. Much of this diversity has already been lost, but if migration and mixing continue as they are at the moment (driven almost entirely by huge differences in wealth and opportunity), eventually virtually everyone will be of mixed race and culture. What a terrible lose of diversity that would be. When my descendents visit Africa, I want them to meet ethnic Africans and experience native African culture; in China, ethnic Chinese and native Chinese culture; in Europe, ethnic Europeans and native European culture; etc. etc. This diversity is being destroyed by a global economy rooted in man's "more animal than human " nature (which only cares about the "colour of your money"), and by those hell-bend on imposing their self-righteously misconceived ideology of "multiracial and multicultural" society on everyone, whether they want it or not, damning and silencing those who don't by branding them racist .

 

I beg your pardon. I've gone on much more than initially intended, taking the opportunity to express some things I've been meaning to for some time.
