Crucial Reading For Social Scientists
It is a long time since I have seen so much plain common sense in cold hard print, and Civitas, the Institute For The Study of Civil Society (see www.civitas.org.uk ), is to be congratulated on publishing this book.

It is increasingly plain to the majority of the people of Britain, of all colours and religions (who are more intelligent than the politicians think !), that multiculturalism is a failed experiment which is lying, like a harpooned whale, dead in the water. Political correctness and “positive discrimination”(which, call it what you will …. Is still discrimination !) have not brought us the tolerant Utopia the proponents of multiculturalism promised. Indeed, as is plain to all save those who will not see, multiculturalism has had an effect quite the reverse of what was hoped for. Inter-racial strife, not only between indigenous British people and those of other ethnic groups, but also between ethnic communities themselves, is dividing the nation, and religious intolerance is sowing the seeds of horrors to come. How have we come to this after such bright hopes ? An answer to this question is what Patrick West has sought to find with this book, and he has done so in masterly fashion. Brick by brick, he has built a tower of evidence which points the finger, fairly and squarely, at those who have brought us to our current predicament. The culprits are the ideologues of multiculturalism and the politically correct modern day “witch finders” who support them. West proves that, far from promoting integration and inclusion, multiculturalism as it is practiced in the United Kingdom (What West calls “hard multiculturalism), has done nothing except encourage separation and strife. West’s case states that hard multiculturalism has to be scrapped, and replaced with a “soft” multiculturalism which seeks to build a “one nation, one culture” ethos, instead of the multiplicity of cultures currently being promoted.

This book is, in my opinion, one of the most important works on social policy and social engineering to have been published in the last fifty years. If we heed its message it is not too late to reverse the trend and save Britain from a nightmare. As recent events show, unless we grasp the nettle now it may be too late, and Enoch Powell’s prophecies of “rivers of blood” may yet come to pass. IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE THAT WAY !

Whatever your political perspective, buy this book ……. Buy several copies ! Give it to friends, and perhaps most importantly, send a copy to your Member of Parliament and ask for his comments on it.

A wake up call
A short book that gets straight to the point that our society cannot coexist with segregation, different law systems and different fundamental moral codes. Multiculturalism is counter-enlightenmnet, illiberal and can be racist, this book exposes one of the most widely misunderstood terms around today, as for when i say im against multiculturalism i get called racist due to people not understanding what actually is being said. Though one criticism of this book and the whole anti-multiculture brigade, they seem to think chrisitianity is important and blame secularism (which is a funadmentally universal notion) as the cause of moral reletavism, which it isnt, just listen to all the prominent secularists Harris, Hitchens, Dawkins, they all are universalists and condemn moral reletavism.

Multi-culturalism is death to democracy
Being a colored person myself, I am strongly against the so-called multiculturalism or multirelious society. Democracy is slowly, but sure dying. And the murderer is no other than the Multiculturalism / Multireligion. British democracy, like that in the rest of the Europe, is being raped and poisoned by this Multiculturalism and Multirelision. We no longer can say anything without being fear for our own lives in this country, because we know what the fundamentalists or extremists are going to do with us - they hate our guts as that is the way they are brought up and they know no other way to live - hatred is a basic part of their lives. In the Western hypcratic society, this and anything else is allowed, all in the name of democracy.

The West is not built by other religion, it is built by Christianity. When other religion come to Britain to claim their territory, shall we just give them our country and say, PLEASE, do anything you want with us, as we are so democratic! The sad truth is: in about 50 years, you won't hear this democratic crap anymore, as you will only hear one voice of one religion which is by no means Christianity as it is already dying.

Democracy is a naked young woman. Without her husband, the Christianity, if she dears to go out to the jungle behind the bush, you can seriously worry about her fate.
