I do not want to live in an Islamic country

Preserving England’s heritage in an age of multicultural dogma

One of the most controversial dividing lines in contemporary political discourse is that which is found between those who endorse the concept of “multiculturalism” as a fundamentally positive and even virtuous proposition, and those who reject such a concept as unworkable or even immoral. One can hardly deny the significant demographic and cultural changes which have taken place in the United Kingdom over the last few decades, which have brought with it an increasingly public display of Islam in our political arena and civil society. The fraught debate over the value of multiculturalism has been waged by the Left, aided by the assertion of a central guiding principle that anyone who opposes such demographic changes is committing sacrilege. In other words, it has become a moral imperative that English men and women accept the growing presence, and often preference, of foreign cultures in this country, and that the English have no natural right to their own culture, heritage, or traditions which necessarily become diluted and obscured in the presence of many others.

This assumption has been used to clobber those of us who have raised objections to what we deem to be the damaging impacts of multiculturalism in the land which has been our home for centuries. We have been made to feel that our uneasiness with this kind of cultural upheaval is a deep moral flaw and reflective of our own backwardness and nastiness. Consequently, the globalist Left have succeeded in advancing their imperialist political project and shaming ordinary people into silence out of fear of being labelled “bigoted” or “racist”. I resoundingly reject the assertion that one must, out of moral duty, accept the premise of multiculturalism and all its impacts, and this article seeks to put to paper what I suspect is the view of many ordinary and reasonable men and women who are tired of being gaslit by the political establishment into surrendering their natural right to their own history and heritage in their own homeland.
