This is How the United Kingdom Ends... If it does

  • The Island of Britain has more than 1 country on it. As if that was not enough, there is a new culture growing in the United Kingdom, which not only threatens to caused ethno-religious conflict across England, but with whom Scottish and Welsh Nationalists are clearly aligning alongside neo-Marxists, and that is cultural Islam. This is happening whilst Conservatives push through a Brexit that is the opposite of what most of England wanted in Brexit, which is to slow cultural and ethnic change. Instead, an ideological faction of the Tory Party genuinely believes in a pure form of capitalism so much that it wants cheap labour precisely from the nations which are bringing cultural change the United Kingdom without ever addressing ongoing growth of new populations and ethno-religious divides within Britain itself. All of these things are slowly fusing together to cause a ticking demographic timebomb which, if the UK ends, this is how.

      Here’s the problem. Using the templates of previous centuries to judge the present one. The civil war you speak of is already happening, dotted around too many places and too many incidents to even count. The inquiries a decade ago which looked into racially targeted child exploitation of native kids, without describing themselves as such, called the abuse so horrifying that, “it is only ever seen in war.”
      Everyone looks for this big burst-out conflict as the trigger, when continually downward shuddering, with just more and more dramatic deterioration, is what’s on the menu. Not just some similar Gavrilo Princip moment.

    I emplore anyone looking for root causation of this madness, to research Hayaks 'constitution of liberty' and understand what Blair really did to Westminster, the country, and the union. In short, Blair undid everything, which has made it so difficult for anyone conservative to overturn. The fact that our current government eats from Blairs hand doesn't help (Cameron had him as an advisor). In short, everything Blair did needs reversing, and we need a government capable of delivering that. The man is a complete traitor.

    Thank you so much for this video, it was incredibly insightful and useful. I'm a Gen X American immigrant who moved to the London area back in March 1995 and have adopted this country as my own. My children were raised here. I've now lived longer in the UK than in my birth country. The UK has changed so much over that short 30-year space of time. It's the same in the US, which is virtually unrecognizable from the America in which I grew up, our culture, the values we were taught, the flag we saluted in school each morning. The most heartbreaking part is learning that it's our leaders -- our own people -- who've betrayed us and knowingly sold us out.

    For me, as a non-British, it is hard to wrap my head around what is going on in Britain with all these crazy things in the streets of London and across the UK. Your video was very helpful, thank you.
    I witnessed kind of rehearsal for this balagan in 2014 in mainland Europe when Israel launched the Protective Edge operation. So I was aware of what would happen next after Israel retaliated, but nevertheless, I was surprised by the scale of this mass psychosis. And I was shocked that the old red-green alliance achieved such success.
    I grew up in the USSR and I was a teenager when the Red Empire collapsed in front of my eyes. A few years later in independent Ukraine, people started to get rid of all that soviet stuff from the schools and public libraries. As a result of that process, I have some interesting books in my collection. Two books about Israeli Colonialism and Zionism are taking a special place in it.
    All these gaslighting and protecting narratives about genocide, apartheid, and the Zionist colonial state that the Islamist and woke agitators are spreading across the college campuses are in these books.
    The great irony and tragedy that even Islamists seems to believe that bullshit that supposedly should target only the Western public. The Islamists were the guys who used to consider themselves the sword in the hand of Allah and by destroying the Jews they were fulfilling Allah's will. Now they genuinely do not understand why the Zionist colonizers haven't yet fled back to Poland.
    Initially, it was almost a red-red alliance against the West. Ba'ath party, the PLO. The Soviets bankrolled and trained almost every far-left terrorist group from the Red Brigades to the Black September and supported many autocratic leaders who pledged to fight with 'Western Imperialism' from Hafiz Asad to Idi Amin. The darkest and the biggest Empier of the 20th, the Prison of Nations declared war on European colonialism and Imperialism, and pan-Arabian imperialists allied with the Red Empire. Nothing confusing.
    After the Socialist project in the Arab world collapsed the alliance became red-green.
    The Islamic Caliphate is more suitable for the Arab world than the Union of Arabic Social Republics. And the Islamists, like the Muslim Brotherhood, and Hizbut Tahrir have joined the Bolsheviks. For the Islamists, the Bolsheviks are the way to widen their influence on the young non-Muslim people for the Bolshevcs the Islamists are their new proletariat.

      That's interesting, why should we save it? I'm just being the devils advocate.
      Is it because British culture is the best thing since sliced bread, is there no better alternative out there?
      Also interesting that culture 'the way we do things around here' is always changing, our way of life is vastly different from 100 years ago and again from thousands of years ago. New freedoms, old customs, new technology, the atomisation of family & friendships, improved transport, healthcare, greater appreciation of the challenges and difficulties faced by others, etc. All have an effect on culture.
      So I think it would be far better to understand whatever is the ideal culture for the UK.
      London culture is different from Cumbria, as is Wales to England.
      But unless we can identify what we mean by Culture then we can hardly defend it as the surrounding environment is ever changing.
      For any 100 people we were to ask you would get 100 competing suggestions as to what it is. But we might then identify the core elements that most could agree upon.
      Whereas being swamped by foreigners is a readily understandable fear, it is at least far clearer in having named that fear.
      So while I don't want to be swamped in that way, having done so I could now go on and articulate what it is I do not wish to lose. But we don't seem to assert these things as being the Best of British.
      If we made a start then wouldn't that be a good thing we could use to preserve and protect our Britishness.

      How right you are! This should have been obvious to anyone with half a brain and who wasn't eaten up with the lies and propaganda of the Leave campaign. Pre-Brexit, there were two strands of legal immigration into the UK - EU immigration and non-EU immigration. Non-EU immigration was always higher than EU immigration, and was always under the full control of the govt. The govt chose not to control it. In addition, EU immigration was a net contributor to the economy, non-EU immigration a net drainer. One could also perhaps argue that culturally EU immigration was less disruptive, as that seems to be the premise of this video. So, was Brexit good or bad, from this point of view? Go figure.

      That doesn't however explain why Britain was a much more violent place before mass migration - e.g. the Wars of the Roses, the English Civil War.
      Not does it explain why the areas of the UK, where violence against the person is highest, have very few immigrants - Blackpool, Thanet, Portsmouth, Southampton, etc

      The Isles were colonised by the Greeks and they ruled them uninterrupted to this day. From time to time, when the locals got to awake and organised, they would call the cavalry. They called the "Romans" on the Welsh, and the "Normans" on the English, now they are building a new army which is also Greek of the making. The 3 "Abrahamic"..."Religions" are actually the Greek temples of Apollo✝, Artemis☪ and Cronus✡.
      "Hebrew" is actually related to Esperanto and Klingon - it is an artificially constructed language. The Greeks used it for encrypted trade/intelligence mail, to and from their colonies. The "Hebrew" script, like the Greek script is modified Lydian script. The "Greek" identity is very similar to the "British" identity. The Lydians invented it when they subverted and colonised South Trace (modern Greece). So they put all the Thracian tribes under this artificial Greek identity theme, just like they put you in this artificial British theme on the Isles.
      Notice that I call them Greeks, even though it is an artificial identity, it is their most preferred one. I am not trying to confuse you. They also like to go by their other artificial identities - British, Roman, Jewish, Phoneticians. But "Greek" is their flagship.

    I think this is one of the most concise analyses I've seen on the situation in the UK. I have had to fight within myself something I would call a "self civil war" because of my 100% Irish background whilst being a naturalised Londoner. I've had to get this schism out of myself and be neutral. I don't want to side with Marxism and I see that anyone who does in this era is nothing more than a useful idiot. The Celtic nations and Woke England are fair game for the manipulators at this time. I feel more of an affinity with populist England than I used to, and it's bad they're being undermined in the way they are. But I fear you're right to think it could implode.
    I can understand why you find the English annoying. My favourite parts of England have always been blue collar working class areas. They usually take people as they find them and don't look down their noses at people. But Middle England is a horrible, toxic, passive-aggressive snidey environment. This class division seems exclusive to England and could be like a tinderbox - especially as it's taking the world's problems on its shoulders now. Ultimately I see Islam using anyone who buys into the far left as its useful idiots until the end game has been achieved and then throwing them under the bus. It amazes me how many people can't see that. It amazes me even more that corporate, academic and the political classes are so blind to this.
    I'm not there anymore myself. I think the West is finished. I was more optimistic a few years back, but that has been waning over time.

      If you think "class division seems exclusive to England" then you need to read and travel more. Marx was describing a universal phenomenon, not a peculiarly British one.:
      "Historically, Ireland does not have a strongly defined social class hierarchy, and the term ‘social class’ is rarely used. Muntaner, Lynch, and Oates (Citation 2020) argue that social class is a taboo subject in Ireland that is kept hidden, and if discussed, it is in euphemisms that hide it’s the reality of its existence. This is compared to countries like the UK and mainland Europe, where class inequalities are an integral part of political debate. ‘When people talk about class-based injustices, they are accused of making political debates “ideological”’ (Muntaner, Lynch, and Oates Citation2020, 3). Senator Lynn Ruane (Citation2013) states that despite statistics pointing at social class issues in the country, as a society there is a failure to recognise the role class plays in accessing adequate healthcare, education and general life prospects. Therefore, despite a lack of obvious delineation or recognition of class structures, Ireland appears as divided as the UK and mainland Europe."

    the thing that is really sad about the uk is that there seems to be no backlash from people with any political power in most western countries you can some right wing party trying to stop this even if they fail to get elected or are unable to do what they wanted because of a coalition or things that would violate the constitution or outside pressure in the smaller countries. but in the uk it seems impossible to start a right wing party every attempt has failed so far another thing that blows my mind is how the welsh and Scottish independence movements got hijacked by the far left while these guys say they had the local culture and people how could this happen this ideology makes no sense .
    i personally stopped learning welsh because all the modern stuff is very woke and i hoped i would just be able to watch older movies but it seems like the welsh language has way more speakers now than a few decades ago so there is a gap in welsh movies and literature and it seems like the golden age was before the printing press certainly before movies were a thing so i just had enough and developed an irrational dislike for welsh in a bigger language like English or Arabic or even Danish you can find subculture stuff that is not mainstream even if the mainstream culture is bad like Arabic atheists or German baseball but with smaller languages this is not possible. i had similar issues trying to learn Samoan but in this case the society seems too right wing and religious and everything has to involve the bible somehow.
    i also think brexit is really strange they left the eu despite being such a liberal country and copying all the bad decisions from the eu but non of the good ones while in the conservative eu countries the people are not even considering leaving the eu .i think brexit probably stopped a lot of authoritarian ideas in the eu that were made but by British politicians or at least would be voted in by them. it seems like the politicians in the uk are just very out of touch with the people they are all from an elite class

    You’re on the right track but unfortunately these days you really need to do your own research & not just swallow the lines fed by the media. Two especially egregious examples:
    1) Enoch did not advocate for trouble, he warned we were on a path that would lead to it & the quotes attributed to him are actually him quoting the fears expressed to him by his constituents
    2) Tommy R is probably the most mischaracterised & maligned of all. I fell for thé propaganda against him too and I recommend you do what I did and go learn for yourself from his own mouth. There’s plenty out there, including his own documentaries, a launching off point could be his address to the Oxford Union.
    I’m not attacking you, in both these instances I too bought the lies for a while. Fox still isn’t to my taste and whilst I’ll never forgive Farage, nor do I trust his economic policies, I’ve come to see him as less of the unreconstructed r-ist, beyond-the-pale bigot that I once did.

      Islam will rise? Yes, but so will Atheism. Islam is also a very divided religion. Most UK Muslims are Sunnis who make up 3% of the population. That's about 2.5 million versus 55 million non-Muslims in England and Wales.
      The Shia Muslims won't cooperate with Sunnis.
      Let's look at how Christianity (another religion from the Middle East) gained power in Britain. Firstly, a much smaller population existed in Britain.
      Secondly, Christianity had the eventual backing of the Roman Empire to help convert the native population.
      Thirdly, people were religious and superstitious. They didn't have the benefit of literacy, rationality or the freedom to object.
      OK, why won't Britain become Muslim. Firstly, there aren't enough Muslims to force conversion on the population.
      Secondly, Islam doesn't have the backing of an Imperial state like the Roman Empire, or in previous years in Europe, the Ottoman Empire.
      Thirdly, the indigenous English don't go to church anymore. We're not religious. We're now en masse rational atheists.
      If you look at places in Europe with very large Muslim populations, over 40%, Bosnia, Macedonia, Albania, they're not like that because of mass immigration, but because the conquered people converted under Ottoman domination. And they've been like that for centuries. Also bear in mind the majority of those countries are still non-Muslim.

    Its God vs Satan people, race is irrelevant at this point.
    'Let’s explore the concepts of the Antichrist and the return of Christ in both Christianity and Islam:
    Antichrist in Christianity:
    Definition: The Antichrist refers to a figure who is satanically inspired and sets himself up as God. It encompasses both a spiritual aspect (false teachings denying Christ’s deity) and a future earthly leader who will demand worship and persecute God’s people.
    The Great Tribulation: Before Christ’s return, there will be a period known as the Great Tribulation. It will be a time of unprecedented difficulty affecting Israel and all nations. Its purpose is to prepare Israel for her Messiah.
    Second Coming of Christ: Jesus will return with the hosts of heaven and the Church to establish the Messianic Kingdom on earth. His reign will last for a thousand years. At this Second Coming, the Antichrist will be cast into the Lake of Fire, and Satan will be bound for a thousand years.
    Antichrist in Islam:
    Maseeh ad-Dajjal: In Islamic tradition, the return of Jesus (Isa) will be preceded by a powerful figure of falsehood and temptation called the Maseeh ad-Dajjal (The False Messiah). Muslims believe that Jesus will return to defeat and kill the Dajjal.
    Gog and Magog: After defeating the Dajjal, Jesus will disperse the ancient tribes of Gog and Magog (Yaʾjūj Maʾjūj).
    Peace and Justice: Jesus will rule with justice and fairness according to Islamic teachings. His return is a fundamental belief for Muslims.
    Both religions share the expectation of a significant figure (Antichrist/Dajjal) preceding the return of Jesus. While there are differences in details, the anticipation of these events plays a crucial role in shaping eschatological perspectives.' (AI)

    I tried pointing out to a friend how all the oldest place names in England and even up to Scotland as far as I know , had Welsh sounding names and were of old welsh . She couldn’t understand the fact that the early welsh / Britons were speaking the same old language and were the same people . She was so anglocentric that she was unable to understand anything beyond the English history taught only from one perspective .
    Is there also a similarity with the cultural incursions of the Viking and the ways they held a lot of the North to the midlands and imposed the Danelaw , as Saxon law held in southern England . We see again the incursions of different culture and demands for alternative judicial system ? History does seem to repeat itself in many ways and learning this perhaps gives us a way to foresee future aims of,people and strategies to attain them .

    As an enthusiast of British history and lover of all things Welsh, I too had seen the similarities of how Britons lost to their island to the English. I consider myself pretty left-leaning but despite that, I'm strongly against immigration and the watering down of native cultures, to the point that some may even call me a nazi (you know how it goes in online circles).
    Before this video I was under the impression that these muslims and immigrants were hurtful to Scotland's and Wales' independence attempts as they'd like to remain under the UK, seeing these independence movements as attempts to establish quasi-ethnostates and thus would vote to remain in the UK to prevent that. I also saw their arrival and proliferation in the country as something that would eventually water down the distinct celtic identities as more and more of them arrived and the proportion of pro-independence celts became a minority within their own countries, making a secession vote impossible.
    This perspective kinda blew my mind and showed me I was more ignorant about these issues than I thought (mind you I'm not from the UK, let alone from Europe). I never realized the leaders of these independent movements would willingly jeopardize their distinct identities by siding with the immigrants. Great video.

    I am Romanian and I see how in the last decades being proud of your country and your culture is being taught to be bad. All people are taught nowadays is to be ashamed of their country and culture. While there is nothing bad in criticising defects, this overall mentality of shame is not good for any nation. What was wrong in being proud of one's culture? The only way any nation can survive is to have a strong identity and to culturally integrate newcomers. Migration has always happened, but in 2 or 3 generations the immigrants were culturally assimilated. It help when they were the same religion as the host country. But how can any country assimilate newcomers if they are indifferent to their own roots and distinctiveness? If you don't assimilate immigrants, they will assimilate you.

The word "British" goes back to Old English, attested as "Brettisc" and "Bryttiscne" in two versions of a text from the mid-9th century.

However, it wasnt used to describe the Kingdom of Great Britain until the Scottish King James IV 1566-1625 became James I of England united the two crowns in 1603 to become the first King of the whole of the British isles and so afterwards styling himself King of Great Britain and Ireland. In 1707 the two nations finally agreed to the Act of Union which the English had resisted for 100yrs. Though the Stuart's had been using this term since 1603. English nationalism and British patriotism are two different things, many Scots, Irish and Welsh proudly used the term British but they never forgot their national identities, just as the English didn't either.

I reckon there are loads of people in my part of England with similar ancestry, especially the Irish component. I spent most of my childhood hols in Wales and still go there all the time and my in laws live there, if i get my childhood wish of moving to Wales plus the DNA and do my best to learn the language am i now Welsh? I find it confusing. Also the demonisation of 'the english' is wierd, its always the ruling elites making all their nefarious plots and schemes to shaft everyone thst are the problem, they use and exploit their own population just as much as they do other populations, generally your average member of the public has very little power over what those in charge do and often are opposed to what their government is doing but cant do anything as no power.

      Because of two reasons: (1) Britain was less Romanized and compares best to North Africa, especially the Mauretanias than to Gaul, Hispania or Italia, (2) Eastern Germanics were already Christianized (Arian proselytism in Pannonia) while the Franks and other West Germanics (Allamani-Sueves) were not but had a long history of direct interaction with Rome (they were Romanized in other ways therefore). The Saxons and Angles (roughly Frisians) were also roughly in this group but they met a more barbaric or remote, barely Christianized, province where different rules applied therefore.
      Clovis (first great king of the Franks) conquered what was effectively the last bit of the Western Roman Empire, their former allies against other barbarians often, and thus they annexed them in full, including Latin and Catholicism (Clovis famously converted soon afterwards) and took advantage of the priestly "caste" for administrative purposes and to hold the devastated cities barely alive but alive anyhow. They still suffered from many barbaric issues, notably gavelkind succession, which fragmented their realm over and over and caused endless civil wars, but otherwise they had a good plan and Frankish long term success is no doubt testimony to their constructive opportunism.
      Similarly the Goths, both Western and Eastern ones, were strongly entangled with Imperial politics. The Visigoths arrived as "refugees" but not in a long-term drip but in bulk and great numbers. And they were armed and Constantinople tried to destroy them but failed, and then they decided to bribe them and send them packing in Westward direction, where they looted Rome for the first time since Brennus and then were bribed again with lands in Aquitaine.
      As Basque I'm not happy with any of this, mind you, but that's how it was. It wasn't the gradual drip of slaves and other migrants who created the barbarian hordes: they were real armed nations on the move, pushed by another armed "refugee" nation: the Huns, expelled by the Chinese a century earlier or so. In the Basque Country we made a revolution (the only successful bagauda or peaasant uprising against feudalization) and thus "miraculously" survived, but in Britain there was nothing like that apparently, rather Romano-British continuity, which, even in the Arthurian legend (for whatever kernel of truth it may have) is not a rule of the people but a rule of a handful of charismatic oligarchs. By comparison even the barbarians surely looked if not good, at least not that bad.

    I'm a Dane and shocked to see how blind the politicians are everywhere and especially in England and Sweden. I lived in India in the 60s and experienced the consequences. In Denmark, we do a lot to ensure that newcomers want to assimilate to our legislation and cultural values if they want a citizenship, this does not include their faith.
    The politicians and bureaucrats mistakenly and short-sightedly believe that the management of development can be done with the help of Economy, i.e. the management of the limited goods, and by buying the cheapest goods and labour. That's not how reality works. The development of our industry and society is controlled through self-sufficiency, and which entails exports.
    The Nordic Union should only consist of trade and international affairs between sovereign countries like EFTA. The countries should have their own legislation and currency and be facilitated locally in the municipalities. Scotland, Wales, Ireland, the Baltic countries, the Netherlands and others are welcome to join a Nordic Union of sovereign countries. It is probably too late for England.The USA, UK, EU and other World Powers are unfortunately going in a different direction. Trade with India, Africa and more should be initiated quickly and with mutual respect.

However to conflate it with support for actual, currently oppressed people around the world is poor.

The union Flag doesn’t really represent me. But my family has payed a high price to be here. 15 members of my family lost their lives at the Battle of the Somme 1915 WWI. Royal Lancashire Regiment. WWII one of my uncles is still on HMS Royal Oak. A Revenge class Battleship. At Scapa flow. One of uncles served on HMS Ark Royal. Served during the Norwegian campaign. And sent to hunt for the Bismarck. He survived the sinking of the Ark Royal. But was killed during the invasion of Italy. Drowning German forces away from the channel for the D-Day Landings. As an Englishman I have no problem with an independent England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿. To be honest I don’t think the English were asked if we wanted a union with Scotland in the first place.

    Scottish and Welsh nationalism exist because of English oppression. This is why English nationalism is different, the English in Britain are not historically oppressed.
    Brexit? This was about severing ties with the EU. If anyone voted thinking it would stop immigration from outside the EU then that's their error. They weren't conned. Remainers pointed out that immigration would go up from non-EU countries because of labour shortages, and because we would have t give sweeteners to places like India and Pakistan to secure trade deals. Apparently that was "Project Fear".
    Culture under attack? How is that happening? English culture could be defined as Shakespeare, Milton, Byron, Thomas Hardy, Turner and Constable. Are we being denied access to these things? No.
    Modern English culture has changed enormously in the last 60 years too, despite immigration. We don't attend Church. We take drugs, have sex before marriage, no longer persecute gays, women go out to work. All of these things we take for granted, were seen as abhorrent by traditional conservatives.
    You're confusing hatred of the other with a legitimate claim to victim-hood. It just isn't reality. People in England are marginalised and depressed because they are poor, not because Islam is stopping them from going to festivals, or banning Morris dancing, or forbidding the speaking if English, or shutting pubs.
    We are now a nation of rational Atheists. Will Islam take control? No.
    Why? Because we're no longer a nation of illiterate peasants with no arguments against the dominance of religion, as was the case in Medieval England when we were subject to all manner of dogmatic lunacy.

    Some fascinating perspectives. Including an excellent treatment of how the Brythonic "Welsh" originally lost England. Which despite a moderate degree of overemphasis re the size of the residual indigenous population left living under early "Anglo-Saxon" rule by the late C6th+, still has many VERY clear and cogent lessons for all modern British people today; Welsh, Scots, English AND most recently, N. Irish (AND Southern Irish) too. In particular, also some very cogent rebuttals of the lying Marxist vermin who've hijacked Celtic national movements.

    Great video looking at a lot of interesting perspectives on a complex issue. I particularly liked the analogy of the slow Anglo-Saxon take over of Britain & how there are some similarities to the current wave of arrivals. I'd like to add some points of my own, you forgot to mention the takeover of Pictland by the Scots which to some extent mirrored to Saxon takeover further south. Apparently, Pictish was a Brythonic language similar to Welsh before it disappeared. & of course there is also the Norwegian Viking influence on Britain & the Danes. Plus the Norman conquest greatly affected England and put an end to Anglo Saxon rule. Getting back to the present day some places are fast heading towards Muslim majority status. Although this mainly affects England there are pockets of Islamic influence in Newport, Swansea & Cardiff & in Glasgow.

Whether the Conservatives or Labour are in power in Britain that doesn't explain why the rest of Europe is experiencing the same level of change. The US is experiencing the same. The movement of people around the world is speeding up because of better, faster and cheaper modes of transport and you only have to look at the development of the US from the 19th century to see that.

    It's hard to say what the figures on ethnicity/religion are for the protests in the U.K. against Israel's recent actions in Gaza are but they are certainly not all muslims or people "controlled" by muslims. They are people from just about every background, there are literal holocaust survivors protesting against Israel's actions. In America it is a majority white non muslim people protesting I wouldn't be surprised if that is the case in some even many areas of the U.K. as well. People are protesting against genocide because it is the moral human thing to do.
    The muslim population across the world is not some homogeneous group of people all with the same thoughts and attitudes a muslim from Turkey or Tunisa is not going to share every viewpoint of someone from Afghanistan or Saudi Arabia or a second generation guy living in Bradford. You partially alluded to this but I'm not sure you believe it.
    I wouldn't disagree that too much migration to an area in a short space of time can be a bad thing. Just on an available resource level alone if not potential cultural conflicts. Wales has 20% English identifying population that most certainly has an effect on our politics etc.
    The demise of the tory party being bad for Wales is the most laughable thing you have ever said.
    The "anti zionist mobs" as you call them are in response to a genocide, trying to lump that in with great replacement theories is pathetic. England needs to come to term with it's past for its own sake and future prosperity, that has nothing to do with a muslim takeover.
    This video was just an excuse to trash people you dislike rather than a genuine look at U.K. At this point I'm not sure what people you do like...? A very narrow band of right wing celts, american's, english people, europeans, pro westerners and Israeli's who happen to be pro zionist, anti muslim (their art's okay though) but non neo liberal... and definitely no one capable of left wing thought. That doesn't leave too many people. Someone who is not concerned with the genocide of a group of people could be called a misanthrope wouldn't you agree?
    At this point the channel's content is more Ben Shapiro than Ben Llewelyn, too much right wing propaganda for me. I skipped the two sections in the middle it got too much honestly I wished I skipped the video entirely. I think you might need some self introspection time.

      I agree with a lot of your points and won't seek to argue the others, but here's something to remember: European people are not a monolith either, but despite this, after a few centuries in North America (and for some more recent arrivals, decades) their distinct identities essentially seized to exist and they all blended into an amorphous "White" blob. Sure, some love to claim being Irish on St. Patrick's Day, others clamor about their grandma's pasta sauce, and others will explain you the meaning behind their French sounding last name, but at the end of the day they're all "White" now.
      The same can be said about the descendants of the emancipated slaves that were brought over from all corners of Africa, from Mauretania and Senegal, all the way down to the Congo and Angola, and around the Cape to Mozambique and beyond. Their culturally, linguistically, and religiously diverse cultures eventually fused into what we know simply know as "Black" or "Black/African American Culture."
      Who's to say that over the coming decades and centuries these distinct Muslim peoples coming to the UK and the rest of Europe don't too coalesce and begin blending together to exert their power in a better manner.
      Remember, the history books speak about Jutes, Angles, and Saxons, but that's a later fabrication, there were so many distinct Germanic peoples coming over beyond just those three tribes, and in the end they're all now simply known as the English, one people. One people who over the centuries seized Britain from the Britons and called them Welsh in their tongue, literally "Foreigners."
