A few beautiful words A small disagreement has arisen over the casting for the creakingly long-running ITV crime series, Midsomer Murders. The essence of it that the series, which is set in a rural idyll of middle-class gentility “somewhere in England”, naturally enough employs an all-white cast. The lead actor is being changed, and the series sexed up. But the skin colour of the actors remains all too white. Well, the executive producer Brian True-May, 65, was interviewed by Radio Times and duly challenged. “We just don’t have ethnic minorities involved. Because it wouldn’t be the English village with them. It just wouldn’t work ... I’m trying to make something that appeals to a certain audience, which seems to succeed. And I don’t want to change it.” The result has been a minor media frenzy, and the production company, All3Media, has rushed to distance itself from criticism by suspending True-May. The Daily Mail readership is probably closer to the viewer profile for Midsomer Murders than any other English rag, and its reader-vote on whether True-May should have been suspended records a 91% “No”. But it was one reader comment posted at 1.00 am tonight on the thread to Cristina Odone’s piece at the Telegraph that really caught my eye. It is by “Henbane”, and here it is:

Posted by Bill on Wed, 16 Mar 2011 10:34 | # I see the Telegraph has entered the fray with this… Some say a thread has already been pulled but has now been reinstated - I dunno. Whenever I skim down these threads, be it the Daily Mail, Telegraph or whoever, I’m always (without exception) left with the impression that the majority of commenters have no idea what deadly game is being played out here. They, (commenters) are still railing about the loony pc brigade, the stupid, insane, get a life, hysterical idiots, righteous busybodies, politically correct do gooders, etc. etc. It is quite clear these people writing in such terms haven’t the slightest idea how deep the rabbit hole goes, they haven’t the slightest inkling they are railing against the most deadly game being enacted out on the world stage since the history of man began. I don’t blame them, it is not everybody that has the time to spend researching what it all means and where it is leading. That is why these people are, and will, continue to vote in their millions for the politicians (and BBC) who are forcing mass immigration down their throats 24/7. I’m beginning to think they will never grasp what is going on. However, this still leaves a small section of the populace who know only too well what is going on and are stating in ever increasing stark terms what they have discovered and what it all means, which would make one think there would be an exponential explosion of national awareness. Alas, as we all know, this isn’t the case as the media continues to frustrate with its cast iron grip of information control. Just think what would happen if everyone trashed their TV set and no longer paid the licence fee. But no, they will continue to slavishly watch their bread and circuses and rail ceaselessly against the PC looney brigade. Nobody ever answers the question, is the Internet making a difference? 3

And there is really a problem of leftist stupidity, do-goodism, and so on. The problem on our side is that many people can’t believe that the government wants to kill us. 5

Posted by Bill on Tue, 29 Mar 2011 19:54 | # The idyllic rural English village, along with whole tracts of concentrated wealthy white inhabited areas, such as the the English West Country counties of Devon and Cornwall - are the last refuge of fleeing whites. This phenomena is known as white flight. I’m surprised (or maybe not) that the white flight elephant failed to appear in this debate. I once gave a sort of account here of an evening run out on my put-put motor cycle into the surrounding rural countryside on a typical summers evening. I clearly remember my repeated thought of how normal everything seemed. People mowing lawns, pottering in the garden, cleaning their cars in the driveway, or just talking in small groups. Although civilisation was only a few minutes ride away, (but the village pubs fast disappearing,) this dreamy ride to a distant way of life I once knew as a child, became rather unnerving. Who are these people living out their undisturbed dreams? Do they know what’s afoot? I ask myself. These villages have long been called dormer villages as most folk commute (car/rail) to their place of work. I suspect most social activity remains around the village hall and cricket team. There are still some locals hanging on, but the young one have to move on as they cannot afford the price of property. At this juncture I must digress a little. Rather late in life, I worked for a few short years at an electricity generating power station. My sojourn there turned out to be quite an education. In fact I was prompted to write a few lines in my scrapbook. I entitled those few lines ‘The New Breed’. The (modern) power station was but a small island in an ocean of the state owned energy industry. Coming from a history of private industry it was a bit of a culture shock to say the least. My first thoughts on the Station’s working ethos was how para military it all seemed, having served my military National Service in my youth, I readily recognized the system. Be that as it may, my real interest lay in observing the personnel, particularly, the white overalled engineer (officer) class. During the early 1960’s, Harold Wilson, the then labour Prime Minister, heralded his famous white heat of technology speech, outlining his vision of the massive expansion of higher education required to provide the urgently needed future guardians of the new scientific age. Suffice to say, huge expenditure and effort was poured into providing additional universities for the new aspiring masses of post war affluence. A new breed was to be forged in the white heat of the new technology revolution. Traditionally in Britain, university education had been the preserve of the upper middle class with the cream having a ritual right of passage to Oxford and Cambridge. This system produced the future ruling class of the empire ranging from Prime Minister to Colonial Viceroy. These people were not only educated but also well rounded in the ways of how to behave in the noblesse oblige upper echelon of society. By the end of the 1960’s this system was dead and had given birth to a new breed. Needless to say, with the massive expansion of opportunity to the newly aspiring, dilution of the finished product was inevitable. The new working class breed began rolling off the assembly lines of higher education, they were educated on a specialist need to know basis of maintaining the flow of the factory production line. Noblesse oblige, loyalty, values, well rounded, what were they? This new breed are no longer the new breed, for today they are in positions of privilege and influence at all levels of society, it is these people who have hijacked the quaint English village far from the maddening enricher, many I guess are liberal and practicing what they don’t preach. How long before forced integration, school busing, massive social housing? Remember the Nottingham professor with his clipboard surveying the hideously white rural villages. PS. I must confess at least half of this comment was prompted by a comment I read over at the BDF. GW will recognise it.

This is a big part of the problem. The scale of the betrayal is so huge people can’t believe it. It won’t fit inside their brain. Post a comment:

Too late! Who ever heard of a Taf in an English village? C’mon, can you imagine Rebus with an English side-kick? And he doesn’t even sing! Sheesh.
