.........................................................................................................Haven't watched much of the BBC's recent "White Season" on the British people but I did catch the documentary on Enoch Powell and his "Rivers of Blood" speech. I actually found it very interesting but what really struck me most was the old black n' white news footage of various groups of people and their reaction to the speech. How animated they all were. Whether for the speech or against it, everyone seemed to have their opinion and were not afraid to voice it, in groups of protest or support, or as individuals. Prior to the principle of "Political Correctness" that has been imposed on us all, it was wonderful to experience men and women of all ages and classes putting across their view very clearly, politely and articulately without fear of reprisal.
So different from the nervous, guarded response one would probably get now if out on the streets of Britain with a film crew trying to collect genuine views on immigration from cowed passers-by.
It is quite amazing and frightening to realise how much the British have changed during my lifetime. Gradually but not that slowly, we are becoming no longer the people we once were. It is very sad! UK Column, April 2008 , page 11, halfway down -
" Subversive 'charity' cohorts assisting collapse of British Pubs?" .......
"British pubs are closing at the rate of 67 a month......."
The article goes on to explain how this has happened, the no-smoking rule obviously being the straw that has broken the camel's back.
Then something else was revealed to me.
Now that almost all British Industry has been relocated to scab-workers in various second and third world countries, (we literally are a Post-Industrial Society) and the remaining work is performed by computers, we no longer have the huge groups of male workers - printers, porters, miners, machinists, assembly-workers, stevadores etc. who would flock to pubs after work and discuss their day and what was happening. This is what I saw in the Powell documentary, and it has made me realise the sinister way this country has changed over the last 50-odd years! www.bnp.org.uk/2008/04/27/1839
Pubs were once places where men of all ages would gather not just to have a drink but to pass time communicating with each other. Younger men would hear older men talking and might be encouraged to join in as well. Pubs were generally fairly free of women apart from the barmaids who were usually busy and tended to stay out of much of the conversation. Then, in the late 60s early 70s, women began going to pubs more. Trendy pubs began to appear. Many pubs near docksides or factories remained traditional but as the manual jobs went, so did these pubs that men gathered in.
Not just pubs but all places where men have traditionally met in their work clothes to exchange views, news, gossip, ideas, work-related issues, problem-solve etc. are disappearing fast.
I am old enough to remember the 70s when feminists and sexual equality law insisted that the various traditional mens clubs were to be forced to open up their membership to women, or be prosecuted. Mayhem ensued with mens' golf clubs, snooker clubs, working mens' clubs, private gentlemens' clubs, etc. objecting but the new law was eventually forced on everyone in Britain. Something then started to change. These male gathering areas were disrupted and interfered with. Is this good? The British people, particularly men do not seem as animated and vigorous as they once were. We need to gather together in order to speak and be ourselves. You know the authorities definitely do not want this.
What is all this achieving?
Where else do people - particularly British men, meet now? -
In British cities - where? Car auctions, perhaps?
In the countryside - many meet and chat in the village Post Office but we all know where these are headed. Down the Pan!
For farmers - at the local livestock market. But look at the strange viruses that have disrupted them over the last 20-odd years. And the annual County Fairs across the country! Foot 'n Mouth, BSE. Blue Tongue. Strange! One could imagine that someone does not want farmers and countryside dwellers to be too successful or to meet together too much and exchange views.
There is a now much activity online in chatrooms and blogs and they can help in the exchange of info. but this is nothing like communicating in the flesh. Besides, they are heavily monitored and infiltrated by goverment agencies so when men do communicate seriously it is all known about by those in authority. Not like in the pub, in the old days.
Well sport is now promoted like never before in the history of the world, whole TV channels, whole TV stations are devoted to it. Sport is a huge industry, that produces absolutely nothing! All in brilliant colour, 24 hour coverage. Recent ridiculous Olympic Torch Ceremonies demonstrate the religious-type status that sport and playing is now held in.
But what is sport? A distraction from real life! Pandering to mens' natural tribal instincts, it makes men feel they are part of something - their team, their supporters group, etc. But sport is just a passtime, grown-ups playing silly games, fun even skilful but not important at all actually. Is the purpose of endless, relentless media sports coverage and reporting to encourage us, particularly our menfolk, to "Fiddle while Rome Burns?"
British men are being encouraged by our brainwashing machine - the Media, to run around playing, cheering others while they play, betting on others as they play, to be a fan and support celebrity players, etc.
And then there is the online porn. More playing, more total distraction from reality - that is obviously why the Government permits it.
All this entertainment, like never before, with less and less real work to do! With less and less life skills being passed on!
And all it will take is one flick of a switch one day in the future and it might all be turned off, and then Britain really will be slaves. And we will all look around startled and wonder, how it happened. Rule Britannia!
