by This is a difficult post for me because I'm a liberal who has always been very anti-racist. My best friend is Indian and I've known him most of my life. But I noticed one day that there was hardly any white kids coming out of the schools, and then on another occasion I saw that at my old college there was hardly any white people either. Soon after that I was in my local high street and I seemed to be the only white person there, and it is a big South London town so there was thousands of people.

When I was my town that I grew up in and I was the only white people there, I felt I had lost my home, that it belonged to someone else, all familiarity had gone.
I will never move to the right, I just want the left to cotton onto this and become honest with themselves like I have before it's too late. And those immigrants that are here who are liberals and socialists should understand people with feelings like mine, and if they don't and become intolerant, then they are not true liberals.
Rod Dreher says he all for a multiracial and multicultural society, but not one that overwhelms the host culture. I believe this issue is the Achilles Heel of the left that could keep them out of power for a long time. KV
