During the run up to the last (2001) general election, candidates in all three of the main parties allowed themselves to be bullied by the Commission for Racial Equality - an unelected minority pressure group - into signing a "race pledge" which committed them to refusing to discuss race and all connected issues.

The effect of so doing was to virtually disqualify them all from arguing with any real effect on behalf of their constituents over many matters of grave concern.

Kenneth Clarke discovered this when the Government announced their intention to convert an old RAF base situated in his consistency, into an open camp in which to concentrate up to 750 illegal immigrants. Just one of the three proposed pilot concentration camps for illegal immigrants which, if the experiment proves to be successful, will be the vanguard for up to fourteen similar camps to be situated in rural areas throughout the country.

Mr. Clarke's appalling abdication of his duty to his constituents became starkly apparent to them when he recently addressed a meeting attended by over 1,500 people, held recently in the market square of one of the small towns that will be effected by the Governments proposals.

Residents were told by Mr. Clarke that he supported their opposition to the proposals and that he would argue with the Home Office on their behalf. He said that his objections would be based around the traffic congestion that bringing the camp into use would create, together with the very limited and poor road access to the camp that was presently available. Mr. Clarke also stated that he would argue that it was undesirable to suddenly bring in upwards of 750 mainly young males into such a small rural area, no matter where they all came from. Even if they all came from Leeds, he said, he would still argue against it and the matter was not one of race in any way. Mr. Clarke did not explain what it was that he had against the residents of Leeds.

It should be obvious to everyone and certainly so to The Home Office, that Mr Clarke's objections are baseless and bogus. Ex-RAF Newton was once operated by more than eight hundred members of our armed forces. The majority of these were unattached servicemen. No doubt some of them even came from the Leeds area. It is well remembered how businesses in the area were damaged when the base was closed, local shops being the worst hit by the closure.

The access roads to the base and the road system in general had no problems in coping with the very busy traffic associated with the RAF base. Why on earth should there be congestion problems now, just because of a mere 750 illegal immigrants being encamped there?

The issue is Islam!

I believe that the real problem is clear to everyone, including to Mr. Clarke. However the signing of his pledge excludes him from being able to voice the true and very serious reasons which his constituents have for raising objections. Mr. Clarke was very careful to emphasise that the problem was not one of race and he is entirely correct in so doing. What then is the real problem? To parallel the phrase used during Bill Clinton's first election campaign of :"it's the economy stupid!" in this instance: "Its Islam stupid!"

The vast majority of the inmates of the proposed camp will be Islamic and their lives will be governed by the Koran and the barbaric commands of their paedophile prophet Mohammed. The Koran tells them, amongst many other things, that a Muslim may not be killed if he kills a none Muslim. That a tax must be imposed by them on Christians and Jews alike, just how it is to be extracted is open to interpretation. They are told not to befriend Christians or Jews, so much for tolerance and respect. They have no respect for their own women, let alone for ours, men are given double the witness value of women in court. They are told that men are superior to women. Stealing is to be punished by hand amputation. Adultery is to be punished by public flogging. Drinking is to be punished by 40 or 80 lashes. Resisting Islam is to be punished by death by crucifixion or the cutting off of the hands and feet.

It matters not to a young Islamic with such a third world upbringing if people in the RAF Newton area attend church or not, all will be regarded and treated in accordance with the instructions in their holy book as being either Christians or Jews.

Crime wave in Notts out of control

Crime, including begging, shop lifting, street robbery, assault, rape and murder will rocket in the area just as it has in other areas where illegal Muslim immigrants have been accommodated. In the village of Sangatte in France for instance, where the Red Cross house about a thousand of these people, house prices have plummeted as locals evacuate the entire area in a state of near panic. Children as young as ten are being asked to perform sexual acts for cash by asylum seekers living in Wolverhampton, according to a local councillor.

The area around RAF Newton currently has just one police station, which is only manned on a part time basis. There appears to be no plans to increase the police establishment of the area. Even as things are now, Nottinghamshire police are being overwhelmed by crime. Robberies have risen by a third, burglaries by 16% and vehicle crime by 11%, all in just 12 months. Notts Constabulary have failed to hit any of its crime reduction targets.The force had pledged to cut crime by one per cent during 2001/02 - but it rose by 14%. Detection rates and public satisfaction with the force have also fallen. Councillor John Clarke, chairman of Notts police authority, has been quoted as saying: "It is unacceptable. Questions need to be asked. I shall be asking the chief constable about these figures and the Home Secretary will probably be doing the same."

It could not be clearer to anyone who has been endowed with more than half a brain, that concentrating some 750 illegal Islamic immigrants into an open camp in any part of the county, at this present time, would be an act of criminal insanity. The problem is that the Member of Parliament for West Bridgford has disqualified himself from being allowed to say so.
