Doctor (of?) Anthony Edkins is not English.  He is, however, headmaster of the very English Harrop Fold School in Worsley, Manchester.  He is really rather keen on anti-racism, and appears to have taken to himself and his staff the task of instilling this charming philosophy in his lucky pupils.

The result is that Harrop Fold is rapidly becoming the most heavy-handed, notoriously white-hating school in the country.  Last April, a 10-year old boy who, allegedly, had called an 11-year-old mixed-race pupil a ‘Paki’, ‘Bin Laden’ and ‘nigger’ during a playground argument was charged with “a racially aggravated public order offence”.  When the case came before the court, District Judge Jonathan Finestein remarked, “This is how stupid the whole system is getting.  I was repeatedly called fat at school.  Does this amount to a criminal offence?  It’s crazy.” (For this opinion, let it be said, he received the due amount of contumely from the educrats).

It is a law of liberal life, though, that extremists, left unchecked, will unfailingly push their luck too far.  The brown-skinned Edkins, who inevitably describes his school as “vibrant”, has succeeded in this mighty ambition.  It’s surely all downhill for neo-Marxist fanaticism at Harrop Fold from here:-

Schoolgirl arrested for refusing to study with non-English pupils

A teenage schoolgirl was arrested by police for racism after refusing to sit with a group of Asian students because some of them did not speak English.

Codie Stott’s family claim she was forced to spend three-and-a-half hours in a police cell after she was reported by her teachers.

The 14-year-old - who was released without charge - said it had been a simple matter of commonsense and accused the school and police of an over-the-top reaction.

Arizona Central reports that:

Thirty illegal entrants were found in a vehicle that had been made up to look like a U.S. Border Patrol transport van, authorities said.

The vehicle was seized Wednesday near San Miguel on the Tohono O’odham Indian Reservation about 70 miles southwest of Tucson.

Sir Sandy Bruce-Lockhart, only just ennobled, not yet detached from his political roots, not yet one of the great and good:-

It is a great honour and nice to be associated with a part of Kent where I live and where the countryside and traditional villages are so wonderfully and uniquely Kentish.  I will be fighting Kent’s corner in the Lords.  Of course, to all my friends, colleagues and people in Kent I hope I remain just Sandy.

Now, it happens that Kent’s corner includes an impressive clutch of selective Grammar Schools that have been fighting for their existence for forty years.

So, surely the new Conservative peer must want to see Kent’s precious senior schools protected from the egalitarians and social engineers?  He must be a believer in the good Conservative principle of rewarding ability?  And that of parental choice.

But here’s Lord Bruce Lockhart after a few months of exposure to the ermine and altruism:-

Proactive admissions policies could be used to establish a better ethnic balance in schools.  In towns where the totality of the minority ethnic population is 15 per cent of the whole, we should consider the use of numbers in admissions policies.

We have to get to a situation where people regard the total ethnicity of a town as being represented in schools, otherwise we are never going to be properly integrated.

Children start off being colour-blind and this is a wonderful thing.  But if you have schools where the children are being educated in different ethnic groups you are going to lose that and you are simply not going to have integration.

If we are to have stable communities and to prevent the rise of the far Right, our job now is to put all these issues on the table and open a public debate.

The first question I would ask is precisely how “just Sandy”, the Conservative councillor and all round good guy, metamorphosed into a MultiCult leftist.

WOAI News reports that:

More than fifty immigrants were taken into custody Wednesday after a raid at a west side home. Police were called to the home on Senisa Street after they received a tip about stolen cars. When they arrived, they saw four people running from the house. They looked inside the “stash house” and found 51 illegal immigrants - 38 men, 12 women and a teenage girl – all crammed into three bedrooms.

How dare the racist police raid people who are demonstrating their character by making the most out of their living space, working for less than minimum wage and support higher rents to their landlords?  Yes yes, we’ve heard from the hate groups about so-called “social externalities”... but just let them keep in mind that they may soon be imprisoned for hate speech—in prisons where “sexual pressure ushers, guides or shepherds the process of sexual awakening” quoting the government’s study of so-called “prisoner rape”.

The London Review of Books held a greatly over-subscribed debate at the end of last month on the Walt & Mearsheimer paper.  Its title was “Israel Lobby: Too much influence on US foreign policy?”  It took place in the Great Hall of the Cooper Union. The panellists were Shlomo Ben-Ami, Martin Indyk, Tony Judt, Rashid Khalidi, John Mearsheimer and Dennis Ross, and the moderator was Anne-Marie Slaughter.

In the eighth decade of her life Fay Weldon, one time high-profile feminist author and playwright, the child of divorcees, mother of an illegitimate child, briefly a prostitute, twice-divorced herself, has arrived at this view of her sisters:-

The novelist and commentator told an audience at The Times Cheltenham Literature Festival that women were no longer as romantic as they were a generation ago, to the detriment of their happiness.

Weldon, 75, argued that having been liberated by the Pill in the 1960s women were paying the price of trying to behave like men. “Our generation fell in love all the time,” she said. “We sacrificed everything.  Now women are much more practical and hard-headed.  However, in the pursuit of professional, social and domestic fulfilment many women are failing to accept that, hormonally and physiologically, they are programmed to experience life differently from men,” she said.

“I think we need to make the most of being women as women, not aspirational men.  The assumptions we all make now as to what comprises a good relationship are upside down.  The differences between men and females are what we should be celebrating.”

The most undiscussed, but most important, dimension of Robert Putnam’s delayed release indictment of “diversity” ( what I prefer to call “heterosity” ) is covered up by the following line:

People were even more wary of members of their own ethnic groups, as well as people from different backgrounds.

Again, I’m not holding my breath for research into how different ethnicities are variously impacted by such ethnic autoimmune reactions.  Suffice to say I believe it will be found—in that land of our aspirations where freedom of association allows us to support or falsify theory with varying separate societies (real diversity; not heterosity)—that people descended primarily from ancestral environments low in food calorie availability are more vulnerable to turning on their own when mixed with those descended from other environments.  Basically, it is a form of disease experience with biologically pathogenic memes as well as DNA-based replicators.

The latest controversy over Danish cartoonry - young Danish People’s Party activists filmed drawing the Prophet for a laugh - has had the anticipated result.  Danish politicians have rushed around trying to apologise for their, of course, appallingly racist and completely unrepresentative, un-Danish young countrymen ... Moslems all over have been making the obligatory noises.

Actually, there’s a little more to it than that.  Film of the the youth camp was shot by one Martin Rosengaard Knudsen and duly, obediently, lovingly aired on Danish TV.  Knudsen, who doesn’t sound like a very nice liberal, had posed as a Party member for months with the specific aim of causing trouble.  The cartoon drawing was a bit of light-hearted fun at a summer camp organised last August for young Party activists.  But it gave Knudsen his golden chance.

The cartoons were brought to the world’s attention only because a lying little spy had a camera and made it so.  At whom, then, should those always inflammable Moslems be outraged?  Knudsen?  Danish TV?

Erm ... no contest.  The kids, obviously.  And Denmark.  And the kufr everywhere, probably.

And it’s the same with Denmark’s stunningly cowardly and unsteadfast politicians.  If in doubt, always suck up to the Moslem.
