The dismantling of our country through self-hatred is no accident - it is policy
Zia Yusuf, the chairman of Reform, talked of the “remoralisation” of the young in the aftermath of their party’s recent local election successes.It felt like a very meaningful word. The way to start this is, he says, by teaching history accurately, reminding our children of our country’s greatness and of her Greats. There is much with which to be proud, and yet over the last two decades the percentage of 18-to 24-year-olds who say they are proud to be British has plummeted by half to 41 per cent, with almost half saying that Britain is racist.That last is odd because data fully disagrees with that omnipresent and propagandised talking point. Indeed, the Policy Institute of King’s College London investigated racism around the world. It found that we are one of the least racist countries. Only two per cent of the population would “not like to have foreigners as neighbours”. By contrast, it is a third in Iran, a fifth in Egypt and 15 per cent in Morocco. The truth is that we are paying for the privilege of seeing, not just our country dismantled, but our young “demoralised”. As Mr Yusuf alluded to, they are unable to cherish our communal culture, past, and mythologies. However, the shame that an increasing number of our children feel for our country is manufactured. It is not an accident, it is policy. And because it is, with a lot of hard work, eminently reversible. In short, our taxes are being spent less on tangible deliverables, such as infrastructure, defence or law and order, and increasingly on what Mr Yusuf called “woke nonsense”. Indeed, much of the State apparatus is steeped in observable anti-British ideology. Worse, Racism, an extension of Darwinism, is a philosophical cornerstone of our State. We find ourselves in an odd situation in which, while the population of Britain is not racist, our establishment is. The untouchable is the Monolith: the (culturally) Christian, white, private sector employed, married man, who pays his taxes, looks after his family and loves his country. He is the British oak despised by the Left with a passion since (at least) the Fabian Society’s inception in January 1884 - that incubator for second-rate hubris and pseudo-intellectualism. Our Police are one good example among many in the way they have embraced race as their core ideology. In West Yorkshire, as in other forces, white applicants for jobs are turned down, while white officers are sidelined for promotion. Chief Constable John Robbins thinks racism is needed. It is a requirement, no less! Indeed, he said “legislation should change” to facilitate it. Forces, he thinks, should “discriminate in favour of ethnic minorities”. By deliberately restricting white applicants, a gap between available posts and future police officers opens. This chasm needs to be closed in due course. This explains, perhaps some might say, the exponential rise in officially condoned illegal Channel crossings. To make up the missing numbers, he needs an ersatz pool of “talent”. Indeed, alternative coppers must be found. By happy coincidence, the majority of illegals are between 18 and 25, of recruitment age. From John Robbins’ perspective, this is a policy corollary. Our police force in 10 years could well be made up, in the main, of current illegals. Hunters are becoming gamekeepers, so to speak. Against John Robbin’s institutionalised cruelty, what matters, though, to us, as British subjects, is not race. It never was. It is law-abiding and respectful competence from our institutions, based on the concept of the Crown in Parliament anchored in our cultural inheritance, not on international law or Sharia. That is to be found, some might say, through honest and open competition, underpinned by the concept of equality before the law. Promoting the best, physically, intellectually and spiritually, is the key to long-term social stability. Conversely, the active promotion of sub-standard people is deadly to the person, the police and, ultimately, the country. People advancing beyond their capabilities leads to demoralisation, and, in due course, to societal distrust. Zia Yusuf’s stance is therefore welcomed. He is quite right to point out that the constant drip-drip effect of the acid of hate from taxpayer-subsidised and out-of-touch organisations needs to stop. It is an affront to all. It is a denial of our right to exist. Chief Constable John Robbins’ position is culturally anathema. He believes, like the triplets of doom, Hitler, Stalin and Mao, in race, class and caste. We Brits don’t. We believe, whether practicing or not, that “before God, we are all equal”. In short, from our perspective, John Robbins and all those who hold such views have no business being in the positions they are in. But they are, in their hundreds of thousands. This is, in part, why, currently, learning to love our country again feels like an uphill struggle. There are too many gaping wounds on Britannia’s bruised and emaciated body for us not to recoil in horror. She has lost much of her radiance. But we mustn’t shy away. To remoralise our society, if there is still time, we need to understand the origins of our morality and from whence we came. The clues are there for all to see in our villages, towns and cities; in the buildings our forefathers left behind; our literature; our landscape; our mythology; our language. In short, in our past. Her survival, and ours, depends on us, her little platoons, as Burke wrote in Reflections on the Revolution in France, fighting for her memory before it is too far gone. Britain will only survive if our young rediscover what we learnt to love and why, but which we gave away for not caring enough. As Zia Yusuf so eloquently said “there has been an industrial-scale demoralisation, particularly of young people in this country our children”, the better to steal their inheritance from them. We must learn to see again.
