A Guest Post by Apogee

The following is an email sent to me by Apogee in response to a link he sent me to Captain Ranty’s blog. I protested about CR’s use of the word racism for general cultural banter.  For many years I worked in England as well as Europe and banter was continuous in England amongst my English colleagues. “Auk aye the noo”, “Do you really have running water where you come from?”, “Gosh, I never knew people had TV in Scotland”. On and on it went but of course I gave as good as I got and there was plenty laughter.  Strangely, it was different in Germany. Nobody mocked my German (although I was often asked if I was Dutch) and in the village where I first worked I was known as die Schottin. I accepted the nickname as a term of acceptance within a small community.

Racism? And what is the definition and who decided it? The word is often used inappropriately these days by the press and those who don’t understand the true meaning.

What Ranty wrote reminded me of Australia in the 50's and 60's. We had a lot of "New Australians” and the ones specifically in mind are the ones from continental Europe, known today as the EUSSR.

A lot of them worked on the hydro power stations and "pigeon english"of one form or another was the language used. Australia expected them to learn English, no multiple translations for every damn notice.They were given lots of help to learn English, and most took it.  In a lot of ways it was the same as we have in this country now, without the Islamic problem. There was little of the "crawling" to them we see here, we had to work with them, they had to work with us, we all just got on with it. 

But in saying that, some of them were strange in that their heads were wired differently to ours. Most of them eventually fitted in; they had to learn new things and accept new ways, we had to understand that most of them were trying and  it usually worked out.  There were some we were certain had been recently residents of the local funny farm where they came from and sending them to Australia was a good way to be shot of them.

But looking at what is arriving here, I see the same craziness, same attitudes, i.e. Roma and similar from that area and I see the result of centuries of "selective” breeding; they evolved that way and they are not going to change easily. They are being allowed over here by the EUSSR so that the drawbridge can be raised and Europe's problem becomes ours. And by doing this, we, who are also seen as a problem by the EUSSR, will be too bloody busy trying to keep the lid on here to cause the EU problems. 

If the UK explodes or implodes, who cares, the EUSSR have solved two problems they have had for centuries. Neat trick eh!

Yes, Australia had the same problems but with nothing like the same quantities.  There is still the occasional ‘problem’ although they are two generations ahead of us in dealing with it.  We are just starting!  Like it or not we are a quarantine station for the EUSSR and all they have to do is raise the drawbridge.

How many millions are already here?  Nobody knows and the numbers are guesses.  How many are coming?  Same answer.  Can we do anything about it?  NO.

Try to put a block on the ports and we can’t - we are not allowed.  It’s not that the continentals don’t think like us, it’s that we don’t think like them.  This is a very important point.  It’s a point our politicians never fully understood and it’s how we ended up subservient to the EUSSR.  It’s our own fault we now have to do what the EUSSR says.

That’s the day’s rant, a quiet one.
