Review topic: Jewish interest Myles Harris: Tomorrow is Another Country: What is Wrong with the UK's Asylum Policy? Good account ... infinitely depressing.., 9 Jan 2009 Myles Harris seems to be a doctor who took up journalism to expose scandals of one sort or another. This book attributes the current mess in the UK to the Human Rights Act of 2000. Like many modern problems, this has been propelled by Jews (both in the 1950s Convention to offer refugees [a code word for Jews] from the Soviet Union 'refuge', and in 'Race Relations' acts whch exclude explicitly racist beliefs of Jews). However this latter is *NOT* stated by Harris, who concentrates on the utter shambles of the 'Human Rights Act' in which lawyers at public expense advise what are often little more than savages to destroy their documents; when social housing is given to people with no rights to the UK at all; when removal even of illegals is all but unheard of; when murderers can claim a 'right to family life'. Harris claims the law would have allowed Hitler, had their been a coup against him in say 1944, to claim asylum in Britain. Much of this is the fault of lawyers, including the original legislation. Harris I think does *NOT* examine the question whether Parliament—which has many lawyer MPs—wanted this legislation with a view to making money for their types. He does *NOT* examine the question whether the whole thing is deliberate:- the EU wants a Mestizo Europe, and the so-called 'Labour' party has a system now in which Blair could tell public lies about controlling numbers, while people flood in, often by organised gangs. All this was and is funded by enormous irresponsible borrowing by Gordon Brown, perhaps with Blair the least competent politicians in British history. The effects will be felt for years and may be disastrous. All of this of course was undebated, by for example the BBC, despite its huge compulsory tax take. There's therefore much missing from this book; however as against that, I give it four stars for facing the issue, and giving accounts of what actually happens in airports, courts, holding places, and in the secret back rooms of local councils where the results show up and the free medicine, housing, translation, rent and other costs are secretly paid out. It's well worth reading through for the pen portraits: phoney 'asylum seekers'; the fake statistics peddled by the government; bigamous and multiple marriages; and the outrageous behaviour of British lawyers (including Cherie Blair) milking the absurd system their fellows have set up. --- There's an additional essay by David Conway on Nationalism and Liberalism (the book is published by a von Mises-free market outfit). Neither term is defined very precisely and what he says (I think—dull writing) is that people on the whole tend to like being with similar people. And this isn't incompatible with liberalism—Conway doesn't seem to have heard of the New World Order theorists who regard Liberalism as an elite vs cheap labour masses. |
