Outspoken: MP Frank Field

BIRKENHEAD MP Frank Field has sparked a debate after becoming the first MP to blame UK terror attacks on rising immigration.

He made his controversial comments during a House of Commons debate on Tuesday in which he said his constituents were angry that the Government had called for vigilance following last month's incidents.

"The report back from my constituents in Birkenhead market was what a damned cheek that they should lecture us on vigilance!'," he said.

Blaming ministers for failing to monitor the number of immigrants being let into the country, Mr Field added: "If the political class had been a little more vigilant in the past, and responded to their regular doubts and worries about the level of immigration, we might not, they said, be listening to such statements from cabinet ministers.

"So a little less from the political leadership about those on the receiving end of that lack of vigilance from the political class would be much welcomed."

HERE! HERE!

THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THAT MP FIELD HAS BEEN OUTSPOKEN ABOUT THE NEGATIVE IMPACT OF RAMPANT IMMIGRATION ON THE BRITISH PEOPLE.  THIS ARTICLE IS FROM JUNE 2006:
EXCERPTS:

UK politicians are "living on borrowed time" on immigration, a former Labour minister has said. Frank Field questioned whether current record levels of migration into Britain were "sustainable". And he told the BBC News website the UK was in danger of becoming a "global traffic station" for migrant workers.

He urged politicians on all sides to stop ignoring public concern on the issue before the BNP found a leader with the "talent" to exploit it.

The UK is currently receiving the highest number of immigrants in its history, following a surge in migrant workers from new EU member states.

....

Mr Field, a former welfare minister, questioned whether this level of immigration was sustainable without "dramatic" changes to the character of the country and hitting poorer areas, which have to absorb migrants.

"This is the most massive transformation of our population. Do we just merely accept this as another form of globalisation? That it doesn't matter where you are, or that you belong to a country and have roots? That we are all just following the jobs?" Mr Field told the BBC News Website.

The BNP denies leader Nick Griffin is "inept"

People who questioned mass immigration were often accused of "playing the race card" but, Mr Field argued, this was "just another way of closing down debate".

INTERESTING THAT MP FIELD ALSO "WARNED" THAT THE BNP WOULD SOON BECOME A MORE VIABLE ALTERNATIVE TO VOTERS:

"If we are not careful, we will be transformed into a global traffic station and that is not what most people mean by being part of a country."

He added: "It is only because the BNP are so inept that the debate has not taken off."

He said mainstream politicians had to address immigration "before the BNP stumbles on somebody with talent".

"We are living on borrowed time. We can not continue on the assumption that the BNP will present leaders which turn off most voters, even if what they are saying is important," he said.

BNP spokesman Phil Edwards said the party had been calling for a debate on immigration "for many years" but its views were always misrepresented by the media.

He denied the BNP's leader Nick Griffin was "inept", adding he was "every bit as good as any mainstream politician".

On Mr Field's comments, he said: "He sounds as though he is ready to join the BNP, not that we would have him."  (BRILLIANT RETORT! LOL)

The BNP wants a halt to all immigration and a programme of "voluntary repatriation". (SOUNDS REASONABLE TO ME!)

Sir Andrew Green, of pressure group Migration Watch, said: "This rate of migration cannot be maintained without the most profound changes occurring in our society, and particularly, given where we know migrants first live, in our poorest areas

"We have for too long ducked a serious debate on the scale of immigration. The government have done their best to bury the numbers and the Conservatives seem to have lost their nerve."


MP Field should be commended for his comments on the deleterious effects of rampant immigration on the UK.  One only has to looks around at the hoardes of non-English speaking people roaming the streets of Britain,  mosques sprouting up in our cities & towns, balkanization of cities and towns, islamic terrorism in our midst, overcrowded hospitals and schools, etc etc to see that our government is either derelict in their duty to protect the British people OR is complicit in the concerted effort to eradicate British sense of national pride and love of our country.

I agree that it is "cheeky" for our NuLabour leaders to urge the British people to be "vigilant" when these same leaders REFUSE to put a halt on muslim immigration into the UK (doesn't that seem like the first item that should be on the immigration agenda?).  They are pandering to the already monumental muslim population, in the UK, and apparently believe that pacifying muslims will lead to their peaceful integration - as I have previously stated in other blogs -our dhimmi politicians couldn't be more wrong on this!!

These so called leaders also want to leave the doors to the UK WIDE open so they can reap the (monetary contributions) thanks from corporations, big farm conglomerates, etc who exploit cheap immigrant labour for financial greed AS WELL AS receive permanent majority status when these appreciative immigrants vote for the party that helped them enter into the UK & enjoy all those freebies.

In other words - to HELL with the British people.

Ironically, Field takes aim at the BNP which is & has been the ONLY political party that has consistently been the lone Town Crier warning our politicians and countrymen of the same detrimental effects of unmitigated immigration of which Field speaks. The party platform, of the BNP, is PRO British. But of course PC correctness and the worship of multiculturalism has turned "pro British" anything into an anathema.

The BNP continues to make great strides in the UK despite continuous slander and assault by the mainstream media and the underhanded tactics of the NuLabour & the other political parties. ( a true indication of the mainstream establishments heightened fear that the BNP is becoming a viable opponent)

Perhaps the thought that the British people have "wised up" and are more than ready to place their support behind a party that has the welfare of the British people as the heart and soul of their political agenda is causing fear in the minds of those hypocrites who are members of political parties that care more about the EU, globalisation, vote garnering, power grasping, etc than the people they are elected to represent.

It is far easier to denounce the BNP as "inept" than admit that the NuLabour, Conservative and other UK political parties have failed so miserably to represent & protect the British people. Even MP Field admits about the BNP "what they are saying is important".

DAMN RIGHT!
