      Great Britain told the peoples of the countries they colonised that Britain was now their homeland, not their place of birth. Those thus colonised cannot be criticised for returning 'home', which they have done in their tens of millions. In the decades since, those immigrants have changed the fabric of Great Britain, and it's up to those who live there to determine how that's all worked out for them.

      Those who opposed Enoch Powell and still oppose his views should ask themselves;
      We had two world wars with millions of lives and pounds wasted while defending these isles from invasion. Then, for reasons I still don't understand, we invited foreign people and powers to just simply apply politely and walk in instead. We now have entire sections of Britain which are populated and even wholly managed by foreign forces, sections of which the indigenous people would not dare walk into in their own country. Why was this situation ever allowed to even be promoted let alone become a reality.

We're better off today where "cancellation" where just means "people don't like me on the internet".

They have their own channel to view on sites such as this and interview other unknowns and have the most extraordinary opinions on anything. The public, many of them, choosing to believe conspiracies from people, (strangers ) online and that if one was sat next to a person on a train or waiting for a bus and a person (stranger) talked their conspiracies out loud, people I would imagine would feel uncomfortable.

      @obeidgolamrassoude3688 The lies of an alien, the reason for those people of the newly formed commonwealth being given jobs at the NHS, British rail ect, is because normal British people didn't want them here and would not employ them. The first sponsored invaders came at a time of mass unemployment, ration books, and a housing crisis all stemming from WW2. Pathetic insults and lies will not change facts. Not wanted, not needed. The real motivation behind bringing aliens to Britain was the disbandment of the British empire, and the commonwealth was created to give the Royal family a sense of relevance and power.

Years of being told the Union Jack represents colonialism whilst being encouraged to fly the flags others, years of having to accept the colonisation of our towns and cities whilst we are forced to give grovelling apologies for our colonial history ,which most of don't condone and none of us are guilty of. Years of us being told that when we go there we are "colonizers" but when they come here it is "multiculturalism". All of those years have beaten down British pride in our culture to point were our own capitol city, our own, beautiful London, that our Grandparents fought for is now barely inhabited by the English. We have labelled those who have stood up as hateful far right Nazis. So I'm sorry to say that there are no longer any "stiff Englishmen".
