The World Is Changing

The world is changing, and England will change with it even if the English may have to be dragged kicking and screaming down the corridors of time into the brave new multi-cultural mish-mash world of tomorrow in which what you have been conditioned to think of as alien cultures will be interwoven into the very fabric of what by then you may conceivably no longer be pleased to refer to as your national life. In a hundred years from now what will England look like? Not my problem, as I am not English.

As the principal lingua franca of the planet is English as a result of your past imperialist ventures and adventures and England through UK membership is in the European Union, England is and will remain a highly convenient gateway to the opportunities that the prosperous English-speaking world offers even if many immigrants' preferred ultimate destination is not and will not be England, of course. Why settle for Wigan when you could have Winnipeg? Cold winters, I know, but splendid for most of the year.

It is your fate to disappear beneath the waves of immigration that are beating against your shores. Accept it. Why worry about what you cannot change? It could not happen to a nicer bunch of people. And the best of British luck to you.
