Lets hear it for the Hindus!

Whilst, following events in Paris, we all rush around in circles shouting, "Don't panic, Capt. Mainwaring!", or the equivalent there-of, let us spare a thought for one huge but very successful immigration that has occurred in this, 'our septic Isle'.  Following the visit of the Indian Prime Minister, I refer, of course, to the tens of thousands of Hindus and Sikhs who have settled here and seem determined to just get on with their lives, make money, follow their religion without shoving it down our throats, play a part in the local communities as well as in national politics and, generally speaking, add to the rich warp and woof of modern Britain.

Well, yes, of course, some of them are rascals and they do tend to cling to their old country traditions of graft and corruption.  Equally, their birth control practices aimed at producing a surfeit of sons is utterly despicable but, gradually and inexorably, their womenfolk will imbibe western practices and bring their bossy men to heel.  So by and large they have added to the wealth and talent of the country without stirring much more than a ripple let alone any waves.

Well done, the Hindus!

Eh?

So what about the Eastern Europeans who've come here and not even brought graft and unborn female murdering with them, in fact, who behave in more respectful, hard-working, enlightened ways than the home grown Brits, that you and your VL cronies want to stop coming here, and, in Ukipper extremes, even boot out?

Calm down, dear, I have never raised any complaints about Eastern, or Western European come to that, immigration. Apart from anything else, the ladies always appear to be exceedingly, er, 'hot' - I think that's the right expression! - so what's not to like?

Oh, the Hindus left in India don't get along with the Muslims either.

Congratulations for this post, David. I wrote at PM's you're not as bad as you let on over there.

You haven't seen David outside wearing his black eye patch and "do rag".

[David Duff]

Once again this blog, or to be precise, its commentariat, provides an education. Apart from 'Whiters', who knew what a "do rag" was? Not me - but now I do and I might invest in one!

But do I detect slight mellowing of the Billy No Mates approach?

You're up for a Schengen agreement with the Hindus only from the Indian subcontinent then?

That'll go down like a shit sandwich when you open your mouth and blurt that one out at your first meeting of the VL brothers!

In fact, can I be there please when you stand up and make your inaugural speech with that as the first sentence?: "Hello, VL Comrades, my solution to the problems of Britain is a Schengen agreement with the Hindu peoples of the Indian subcontinent".

You'll be back in the Popular Front where you were and belong before you can say Ukip!
