Multiculturalism
has betrayed the English culture says
Archbishop
of York.
[With
many well-known presenters in the media still hooked after many
years on the mistaken belief in the mantra of multiculturalism
as if it were a benefit to society when in reality it is meant
to destroy our English culture as warned so successfully in
the following article the Archbishop.
Before we commence
with the article we
relate the circumstances
before
the 1997 General Election when a reporter asked our opinion
on multiculturalism and we said that we believed in each individual
but NOT in multiculturalism, which even then was banded about
as if it was a truism of almost sacred meaning which we would
ignore at our peril.
There
is no need at this time to go into detail, as there is abundant
examples in the many articles written almost daily by the opponents
of the insidious infectious ideology intent on its purpose the
destruction of our values and Englishness

MULTICULTURALISM HAS BETRAYED THE ENGLISH CULTURE SAYS ARCHBISHOP.

Steve Doughty
[Social Affairs Correspondent]
Daily Mail
Wednesday
23rd November-2005
ENGLAND’S
first African –born archbishop
has launched a powerful attack on multiculturalism
and defended the
British
Empire.
Doctor
John Sentamu, the new Archbishop of York, said
multiculturalism ‘has seemed to imply, wrongly for me, that
other cultures be allowed to express themselves but do not let
the majority culture at all tell us its
glories, its struggles, its joys, its pains’
His attack, delivered
in his first interview, amounts to a ringing endorsement of
the views of
Trevor Phillips
Head of the Government’s Commission
of Racial Equality.
Mr Phillips has
attacked multiculturalism-the Left-Wing dogma, which tries to
denigrate English identity and encourage minority groups to
develop their own separate cultures-as leading the country into
‘sleep-walking
to segregation’
He has since come under attack from a number of Left-Wing black
spokesmen and Muslim leaders.
Dr Sentamu is
a key figure in British race relations.
He was one of the leading authors of the Macpherson Report
into the murder of black teenager Stephen Lawrence that established
the idea of ‘institutionalised racism’, which bound police forces
to tough new anti-racist codes.
As well as attacking
multiculturalism, he called on the English to rediscover THEIR
National
Identity
He also defended the British Empire and praised the English
culture it spread around the world.
Dr Sentamu backed the idea of a revival of celebrations of St
George’s day the English national day that has been treated
with contempt by politicians and establishment figures.
The Ugandan-born
cleric, who will be enthroned as number two in the Church of
England later this month, declared:
‘I speak as a foreigner, really. The English are somehow embarrassed about some of the good things
they have done.
‘They have done some terrible things, but not all the empire
was a bad idea. Because
the empire has gone, there is almost a sense in which there
is not a big idea that drives this nation.’
The
archbishop said in an interview with The
Times:
‘What is it to be English?
It is a serious question. I think we have not engaged
with English culture as it has developed.
When you ask a lot of people in this country,
“What is English Culture?”
-they are very vague. It is a culture that whether we like
it or not, has given us parliamentary democracy. It is the mother of it, it is the mother of arguing that if you
want a change of government, you vote them in or you vote them
out.’
He
added:
‘it is a place that has allowed reason to be at the heart of
all these things, that has allowed genuine dissent without resort
to violence, that has allowed all the fantastic
music that we experience in our culture.
England is the culture I have lived in, I have loved. My teachers were English. As a boy growing
up, that is the culture I knew.’
Dr Sentamu’s
defence of the spread of English culture around the world will
be seen as a rebuke to the only cleric who is now his senior
in the Church of England, the Archbishop of Canterbury Dr Rowan
Williams.
Dr
Williams said earlier this month that it had been a sin for
Church missionaries to spread through Africa and the world the
much- loved music contained in the Victorian hymnal Hymns Ancient
and Modern.
Dr
Sentamu, 58, was born one of 13 children and trained as a lawyer
in Kampala, before falling foul of dictator Idi Amin.
He
fled Uganda in 1974, and then was ordained a priest after reading
theology at Cambridge.
By
the late 1990s as a junior bishop in East London, he had become
influential enough to be appointed one of three senior figures
to help and advise Sir William Macpherson the
Lawrence Report.

COMMENT COLUMN
(of the same
date)
AT LAST the Church of England-so often timid, fatuous
and achingly politically-correct-finds the voice to proclaim
the worth of our
National Heritage
Dr Sentamu, Britain’s first black archbishop,
attacks a multiculturalism that lets other cultures express
themselves but doesn’t let the majority culture
‘tell us its glories,
its struggles,
its joys’.
Too many, he declares, are embarrassed by their
Englishness, when they should be quite the opposite. He is full of praise for our democracy, magnanimity
and tolerance of dissent. And
he insists our culture IS rooted in CHRISTIANITY.
In a nation that has so, lost its bearings that
officials even try to discourage the
CELEBRATION
of
CHRISTMAS
His love for our traditions could not be more
refreshing.
Should it really take a churchman born and brought
up in Uganda to remind us?
WHY
we have reason for pride?

[The first Archbishop of York was Egbert in
AD 732-766 . A scion of the royal family
of Northumbria; educated from infancy in a monastery; ordained
deacon at Rome; consecrated Bishop, AD
732. The Venerable
Bede, whose pupil he had been, addressed a letter
of counsels to the new bishop, recommending, among other things,
the erection of the northern kingdom into an ecclesiastical
province.
The
counsel was with the concurrence of the king carried into effect,
and Egbert (AD 735 became (If we do not reckon
Paulinus) the first Archbishop of York.
In
AD 738 his brother Eadbert
became king (he abdicated in AD 759, spent ten years in religious
retirement in the monastery of York and died AD 768).
He was a man of great learning, and fully sustained the
high reputation, which the schools of York had obtained throughout
Europe.
He
was a munificent patron of architecture, art and music. His pupils afterwards taught in the schools
of Italy, Germany, and France.
Several of his works have come down to us; the most valuable,
a ‘Pontificale,’ ‘Succinetus Dialogus Ecclesiasticae Institutionis,’
‘Excarpsum de Canonibus catholicum patrum, Vel Poenitentiale.’[Dictionary
of the Church of England-Rev.E.L .Cutts, D.D.-1908]

[Our History
is littered with names of countless individuals who though foreign
born so loved their adopted country that they have fought many
with their lives to protect the rights and liberties which many
born Englishmen have taken for granted.
Our early years has showed how some foreign
kings put their responsibilities and loyalty to England before
their foreign lands and the Christian Church in England was
fortunate to have a foreign clergyman of stature and the greater number of barons who
led the defence of our Liberties at Runnymede in 1215. and they
with others over time rose to high positions in the State to guide our monarchs
in their duty to their freedom loving peoples.
Over
the centuries it has been the new entrant from the four corners
of the world and their descendents today who still defend with
their lives to uphold the ‘Rights and Liberties’ of Englishmen’
The list of names and events
of these foreign born band of brothers with their love for England
would be in itself a great history
of the
English Speaking Peoples.
