Multiculturalism and the Liberal Left !!


I recently paid a visit to Bradwell-on-Sea in Essex to view what is recognised as the oldest Anglo Saxon church in England. Founded by St.Cedd in 654 AD, St. Peter-on-the-Wall is an unremarkable building in many ways. None of the soaring vaults that we associate with Norman architecture, with ornately carved windows. St. Peters was built in simpler times of worship and the building reflects that, and but for it's age, would be largely forgotten. But it's remarkable for it's a manifestation of how Anglo Saxon culture and Christianity has formed the very nature of our England. For me, as someone who is not particularly religious but has a great love of history, it's impossible to divorce the two, for the Church has been involved in every facet of our culture and has helped shape our society to what it was. I say 'was' with good reason for now we come to 'Multiculturalism and the Liberal left' !! the title of this rant ! 'Multiculturalism' that scourge of a word that I have detested from when the Liberal Left first coined it some thirty years ago. For the proponents of 'MC' (the word is far too long and pretentious to keep spelling in full) are not really that at all, for the culture they detest and despise and the one that is to be forgotten, cleansed from history and particularly England, is the very culture that has built this wonderful country of ours and is the bedrock of 'Englishness'. That culture is Anglo Saxon and the Liberal left view that as elitist and is, therefore, to be expunged from our culture. A famous historian recently stated that English history really started in 1707 with the Act of Union and, rather than being laughed at as one would normally do to such a preposterous statement, the learned Liberals nod their heads in agreement, eager to rid our nation of any sense of identity and condemn us to the MC Nirvana they have planned for us. If only the English would greet dignitaries as the Maoris do by sticking out their tongues, or squat semi-naked in a desert blowing a Didgeredoo, then the Liberal left would laud us. But no. Anglo Saxon culture is used by them as a pejorative term. Something to be ashamed of. Read of any decade in our wonderful history and try to avoid the influence of religion in that decade and therefore our culture ! So Christianity is ridiculed whilst other religions are fawned over, even to the extent that the Archbishop of Canterbury, the eyebrowed, appeasing buffoon so loved by the Liberal Left, denigrates the very religion he is supposed to champion ! And it's ridiculed because to do so aids the left in their attempts to ridicule our Englishness. Solzhenitsyn wrote 'To destroy a people you must first sever their roots'. Well our roots are in Anglo saxon culture and Christianity. Secularism is the way forward for any modern society, but I for one love the sense of history I find in the pomp of religious occasions ,from the simple baptism to the Crowning of a new Head of State. The Church of England, separated from Rome under Henry VIII, defines the English character and the blood, sweat and suffering that the English have suffered over centuries to achieve the society we have today. I for one will fight to keep that sense of identity from the traitors of the Liberal Left.
