Britons, who have silently witnessed the demographic transformation and cultural disfigurement of their land since the mid-1960s, have a right to be exasperated. This doesn’t mean they are all racists. Their grievance is against the wholesale implantation of values, institutions and moral codes from other lands into Britain.
One of the oddities of Britain’s political culture was that while the Left was forever inclined to take to the streets, the Right was satisfied being the silent majority, airing its grouses privately, or in the pages of the Daily Mail and, above all, through the ballot box.
It is interesting that till earlier this month, the only cause that had prompted a big show of strength by the Right was the 400,000-strong protest in London against the Tony Blair govt’s ban on fox hunting. That was in Sept 2002.
It says a great deal for the explosive anger that has gripped Britain that the march in London on Sept 6 easily dwarfed the protests on Gaza. Estimates of numbers vary. Yet, from the aerial views, it seems much of Central London was taken over by the multitudes carrying the Union Jack and the Cross of St George.
