| Race Laws 'are stifling DEBATE on White Flight.
by Matthew Hickley [Daily Mail-Home Affairs Correspondent]
POLITICAL correctness and race laws are stifling debate over the 'White flight' Which threatens to segregate communities, a Government adviser has warned. Professor Ted Cantle claimed laws designed to stop extremists stirring up racial hatred were becoming 'part of the problem' -because individuals felt unable to voice unease over changes in society. He called for 'greater tolerance' for those expressing fears and warned unless such concerns were debated openly they would be driven underground.' Professor Cantle, who was commissioned to write the Government's report into the 2001 race riots, spoke out as a BBC Panorama investigation highlighted evidence of segregation between white and Asian Muslim communities in Blackburn. Producers found many white residents who had misgivings about their neighbourhoods being 'taken over' by Muslims, but refused to speak on camera for fear of being branded racist. Professor Cantle said political correctness and race relations laws were partly to blame. He said: 'I think it can become part of the problem if it has the effect of limiting debate. Most of the legislation we've got stems really from a position 40 years ago where we were very concerned about the rise of the extreme right. 'We're now in a different position. I think we actually need to loosen some of those ties so that we can have a more mature debate. 'It will be painful, but the longer the process will be, I think, a much better level of understanding.' The laws against racial discrimination were 'sound', he said, but those covering inciting racial or religious hatred were preventing discussion. It is an offence to use 'threatening abusive or insulting words or behaviou' to stir up hatred against anyone on grounds of colour, race, nationality or ethnic origin. New legislation will shortly add religion to the list. Professor Cantle said: 'I think there is a perception at least that there is too much political correctness and people feel unable to express their views. THE FEEL THEY'RE ARE GOING TO BE CONDEMNED AS RACIST.' In the case of Blackburn, he said there were signs racial segregation was 'probably getting worse'
-both in terms of residential ghettos and in EDUCATION and EMPLOYMENT Professor Cantle was praised for his report into the 2001 race riots which he warned white and Asian communities were living 'PARALLEL LIVES' with little or no contact. Panorama producer Stephen Scott said the programme found residents felt unable to speak openly about their unease over the way things were changing. 'They struggled to find a way to say they didn't want TO BE TAKEN OVER -he said.
The report highlights the phenomenon of 'White Flight' [A modern tale of two cities within ONE]
-from areas of Blackburn as Asian Muslims move into neighbourhoods -with pubs closing and white children becoming a minority in schools. Estate agents told how white residents stopped buying houses in such areas-fuelling SEGREGATION The Home Office last night said it believed legislation struck the right balance between freedom of expression and protection of individuals from hatred and violence. * * * [Font Altered-Bolding & Underlining Used-Comments in Brackets]
[Well they would wouldn't they. The Government policies over the last decade exacerbated an already dangerous and volatile situation and literally they themselves lit the fuse by their 'OPEN DOOR' policy without being selective in ensuring ONLY those who were prepared to integrate would be welcomed into our already overcrowded country. The politicians over the past four decades have ALL contributed to the unstabling conditions in many of our towns and more especially our cities by ignoring what should have been obvious from the beginning particularly with our country's experience in India where Muslim and Hindu slaughtered each other and the situation in that same country today is becoming even after almost 60 years racial outbreaks are on the rise. It is so ironic that we have citizens of Asian culture who have bridled us on being RACIST yet even in Asia and Africa at the present time thousands are suffering because of a Caste system and racial attacks. There is possibly no country in the world which in the main is TOLERANT -after its long history of welcoming refuges and immigrants from across the world What has since destabilised the situation was the NUMBERS and RELIGION/CULTURE
OF THOSE NEWCOMERS. Everyone is welcome provided that they acknowledge that the host nation has a right to expect that its INSTITUTIONS-CHURCH and LAW ARE RESPECTED
This is no difference to what ANY other Nation State -in the world at large
WOULD ASK! Today many Englishmen find that they are in many cities across our country looked at as strangers in their own neighbourhoods-in many cases the place of their birth and generations before them. Today in May 2007 they are not allowed to voice their concerns because of being accused of being a RACIST And that is why many of our cities are no longer England but divided as surely as the Sunni and Shia enclaves of Baghdad. And the person responsible is the same Tony Blair He will shortly leave office to make his £10,000,000+ -on his lecture tour and we understand to form a Foundation as the Man of Peace and to give some credence to this travesty of Justice he will ask the very same Roman Catholic Church to give their support and blessings. His crowing over his supposed triumph in Northern Ireland will rebound on us in a few years when the cover is lifted and the enforced marriage is revealed to be a poisoned chalice-which time will show has merely been in the case of the IRA a temporary rearrangement to suit the lose of support from America. A letter to the Daily Telegraph struck the right nerve and illustrates our point. Triumph of Terror SIR - Of course, there can be no going back, and we must all hope that the future for Northern Ireland will be just, peaceful and prosperous one, but let us be under no illusion as to the reality of what has happened ( report May 8) QUITE SIMPLY-TERRORISM HAS TRIUMPHED Faced with the IRA's campaign of TERROR Tony Blair and John Major have given SINN FEIN -almost everything it asked for:
THE disbanding of the Royal Ulster Constabulary
THE release of terrorists THE removal of the Royal Coat Of Arms and other symbols of membership of the United Kingdom AND finally POWER-SHARING. It does us no good to allow Mr Blair to re-write history and to pretend that his so-called LEGACY -is anything other than a demonstration THAT TERRORISM WORKS. L A. Kings Lynn Norfolk * [We couldn't have put it better and when the shine has gone from the supposed victory the true intention will surface as it always does when the foundations of that agreement begins to fracture and it will not be only Northern Ireland but Ireland itself which in time will regret this sell-out to TERRORISTS who have their own secret agenda that will be in future need of Tony Blair's 'Peace on Earth' FOUNDATION
How ironic that while Tony Blair was building his supposed legacy in Northern Ireland with the help of America for his help in an illegal war in Iraq back in England he was creating by his OPEN DOOR policy on IMMIGRATION the very conditions in our cities with two opposite cultures clashing because those who had no intention of integrating were allowed to settle here.
