We are coming apart
How asylum, multiculturalism and contempt for the masses turned Britain into a tinder box.
There is our toxic combination of mass migration, uncontrolled illegal migration and negligible integration. There is the decades-long project of national self-loathing we’ve been engaged in, infuriating patriotic Brits who see every culture celebrated but their own, while depriving society at large of a story that might bind us all together. There is our multicultural state, which institutionalises difference – treating us not as citizens but as ethno-religious blocs, to be policed and even sentenced to differing degrees, supposedly for the good of ‘race relations’. There are our identitarian elites, who insist we see ourselves in racial terms, but then are horrified to discover that some white Brits are beginning to see themselves in precisely those terms. There is the dead hand of political correctness, which led politicians and the police to turn a blind eye to the rape of young, poor girls by disproportionately Pakistan Muslim men, for fear of being called names. We could go on. And on.
We are coming apart, everywhere. We see this not just in the riotous aftermath of Southport, or protests outside of migrant hotels. But also in the Hindu-Muslim street battles fought in Leicester in 2022, triggered by an India-Pakistan cricket match. We saw it in the Harehills riot, just 11 days before the Southport massacre, where this incredibly diverse, very deprived, largely foreign-born Leeds community went up in flames after social services tried to take some Roma children into care. And we saw it in the tooled-up, balaclava-clad Muslim youths who took to the streets of Bordesley Green in Birmingham amid the Southport riots, threatening television crews and savagely beating up an innocent man outside a pub.
Asylum, in particular, is becoming the defining issue of our globalised, hyper-mobile, increasingly war-torn times. And yet the way our careless establishment has handled it seems almost designed to generate social conflict. The most impoverished communities in the UK have been forced to shoulder the burden of the small-boats crisis, purely because the hotel rooms there are cheaper, all while concerns about crime, safety and integration are ignored. You don’t need to be a fire-breathing bigot to recognise that some of the young men willing to enter a nation illegally, and unvetted, languishing for years on handouts and black-market employment, might commit other crimes. Nor do you need a PhD in social cohesion to recognise that the arrival of people from more misogynistic, violent cultures, into a nation uninterested in integrating them, will breed fear, tension and very real risks for citizens.
