Matt Goodwin, Blogger auf Substack, hat den Text seiner Rede vor EU-Parlamentarier in Strassburg aufgeschaltet. Daraus die ersten Paragraphen. Beängstigend.

Why is British politics experiencing a historic political ‘realignment’ that will, if the polls are correct, deliver a Reform-led government, headed by Nigel Farage?

To answer this question, let me first set out a few facts about what is currently underway in Britain.
By the year 2063, white Britons will be a minority in the country.
Among the under-40s, this will happen much earlier, potentially as early as the year 2050 —only twenty-five years away.

By the year 2079, the foreign-born –people who were born outside Britain— and their immediate descendants, will represent a majority in the entire country.
In England, already today, more than 40 per cent of all babies have at least one parent who was born outside the country, with the most common including India, Pakistani, Nigeria, Bangladesh, Ghana, Afghanistan, and Iraq.

By 2100, by the end of this century, one in four British adults and roughly one in three young people, unless we change the direction of travel, will follow Islam.
Today, more than one million people in Britain do not speak English, while in more than 2,000 schools a majority of children do not speak English as their first language.
Muhammad, including variants of the name, has been the most popular boys name in Britain, since 2016.

And in many areas of the country, somewhere between 20 and 40 per cent of people from minority backgrounds openly reject an English, British, and UK identity.
All these things points to the answer to the question of why British politics is currently in a state of profound and historic change —a political realignment.
We have an immigration crisis, a demographic crisis, which nobody in Westminster is seriously responding to. And this crisis has two key elements.
The first is the illegal migration crisis.

According to the Pew Research Centre, there are more than one million illegal migrants living and working in Britain, today.
They are now being joined by nearly 200,000 additional unvetted illegal migrants, who are arriving on the small boats from France.
And if the current average trend continues, they will soon be joined by another 181,000 illegal migrants on the small boats by the next general election.
More unvetted migrants have now crossed into the country on the small boats than we currently have people serving in the British armed forces.
Nobody voted for this. Nobody wants this.
Yet once they have entered Britain illegally, they are then sent by our current Labour government into the very heart of our local communities –next to families, next to schools, next to synagogues, next to children.

The cost of this absurd police is some £5.7 million a day for the hardworking British taxpayer, or £15 billion over the next decade.
We don’t know who these people are.
We don’t know where they are from.
We don’t know what they believe.
We don’t know why they are here.
What we do know is they have included supporters of Islamic state, murderers, rapists, and “alleged” Iranian terrorists and that Islamic state has been using Europe’s migration crisis to infiltrate Western nations.
