Have We Crossed the Rubicon on Immigration in Europe?

It seems that Geert Wilders is on track for a victory in the Dutch elections. Classed as far-right by the media, Wilders fought an anti-immigration stance. It seems the generally tolerant Dutch have had enough of mass immigration and have now voted Wilders in to be the majority party in Dutch politics. 

But this does seem to indicate a point has been crossed and politics will never be the same again. I think the public have sussed that mass immigration does not benefit the country accepting the immigrants. Especially if the government allowing the immigration to happen do nothing to accommodate the numbers arriving. Allowing mass immigration without having the economic ability and spare housing stock to properly disperse these immigrants across the country is just madness.

So mass immigration does nothing for the economy, it also does nothing for social cohesion. As the numbers increase, there is less ability to gradually integrate into the society of their chosen country. Instead we get ghettos where each ethnic group set up shop. They also bring with them the animosities and social mores from their previous countries. They do not integrate and disperse. They steadfastly refuse to. 

I know people from my Northern home town three generations now, where they have not spoken English.  They may have learned it in school, but instead in using it as their main language, their main language is the language of their "home" country, the country they identify as their ethnic root. They speak the language of their "home" country mainly, they marry across borders into communities either in their home country, or from the disparate ethnic groups in European countries. Some born in England speak English so poorly they rely on the interpreters that councils supply at great expense. I also put "Home" in quotes, because even they were born in Britain and live here, they do not see Britain as their home country. Their home country is on another continent. They only mention Britain as their home when it suits, when it affords them some benefit, some advantage. Otherwise, Britain is far from their affections.

The issue of numbers and non-integration is so bad that now even the chattering classes that have very little interaction with the ethnic immigrants  (save for visiting the odd ethnic restaurant) are seeing the increase in violence perpetrated by immigrants on our streets. 

It seems that rather than be grateful to the country that gave them protection from whatever persecution they were fleeing from, they are spiteful towards the country that took in their family and gave them safe haven. 

I think we are seeing the tipping point. Thanks to the various marches across Europe, the disrespect for our culture, our heroes and our social mores, the majority of the public are saying they have had enough.

At some point that person that keeps shitting on your lawn has to be dealt with. It's a pity that it's taken so long for a majority of the population to wake up. It makes the task of integration or deportation more difficult. One hopes that the equivalent of throwing a bucket of water over them would see them off and locking the gate will do. But I have my doubts, sadly.

But I'm heartened that it is happening, however slowly.
