   The Race Debate   
      
   Journalists, says Anthony Milne, are now just high-powered   
   propagandists who twist facts. Immigration into Britain may now never   
   be stopped, or even controlled, because the politicians, the only   
   people who can pass laws on the subject, have lost too much power and   
   influence. In The New Élites, George Walden maintains that Britain is   
   now in a Soviet-type grip of professional egalitarians whose power   
   base lies in commerce, culture and the media. They can now control   
   virtually all of public life. They are extremely mediocre in their   
   abilities, and indeed brag about their ordinariness, but behind their   
   anti-elitist rhetoric lies the old urge to dominate which is as   
   powerful as that of their aristocratic forebears.   
      
   Above all, they remain left-liberal and internationalist. Although   
   Walden is careful not to mention it, it is clear that inverted   
   snobbery and their "tolerance of foreigners which is regarded as a   
   sign of superiority", as he puts it, means that pro-immigrant   
   sentiment will continue to be peddled by the élites.   
      
   As Walden points out, élites have always dominated mass societies, and   
   there is a large academic literature on the subject. But in the past   
   there was always a struggle between competing élites with opposing   
   ideas. Britain's new élites, instead, are virtually totalitarian. No   
   politicians of any party would now dare to propose openly to withdraw   
   from the Geneva Refugee Convention, which has outlived its usefulness   
   and is actually harming this country, because the new élites would   
   shout them down.   
      
   Further, the executive branch, in particular the immigration   
   authorities, can do nothing to halt immigration unless there is a   
   change of law initiated by the politicians. Similarly, the lawyers in   
   the immigration appellate system, which is now a growing and   
   monolithic money-spinner for many of them, have to tolerate perjury in   
   court by illegal immigrants - whom they know to be lying - and, having   
   refused them asylum, still allow them to stay in Britain because they   
   know that the authorities are simply incapable of removing them in the   
   numbers required.   
      
   Decline in standards   
   The greatest present danger is the decline in journalistic standards,   
   which the new élites have brought about. In earlier times, news   
   reporters were taught not to comment in their copy, to be balanced and   
   fair-minded. Not any more. The present mix of spin, personally biased   
   opinion, public relations chat and celebrity gossip - often all   
   crammed into one article - is now demanded of journalists by their   
   paymasters. In the process they have resorted to lies and half-lies   
   because they know they can get away with them if they express   
   left-liberal opinions. They continually use pejorative adjectives when   
   it comes to describing the Right - again because it is expected of   
   them. Indeed they fear for their jobs if they fail in this regard.   
   They are no longer journalists but Soviet-type propagandists. This is   
   why the Right is always termed 'extreme', but never the Left.   
      
   Journalists' names for parties   
   Journalists will often describe parties such as the BNP, or Austria's   
   Freedom Party, as 'anti-immigrant' but will not at the same time say   
   that the other parties are 'pro-immigrant'. They will increasingly   
   point to the unpleasant consequences of race riots in Britain, but   
   will not point to their cause: unbridled immigration. They will   
   sometimes approve of attempts to remove illegal immigrants, but are   
   only too ready to publish pictures of weeping immigrant children and   
   their mothers being forced onto ships and planes against their will,   
   because their editors demand a more sentimental and 'caring' approach   
   to news stories.   
      
   By using non-neutral language, they print glaring paradoxes. An   
   article in the national press that describes an immigrant borough as   
   'vibrant', or one which 'celebrates diversity', will be printed   
   alongside stories about tribal butchery in Africa or communal murders   
   in India.   
      
   Journalists used also to be warned about using non-sequiturs - stating   
   facts but drawing incorrect conclusions from them. A classic   
   non-sequitur says that 'anti-immigration' parties promote 'hate'   
   because, as most immigrants are coloured, white nationalist parties   
   must therefore "hate coloured people" everywhere in the world. What is   
   a legitimate criticism of policy becomes instead a personal attack on   
   individual black people in Britain. They pretend not to see the   
   difference between one stance and another.   
      
   They write emotively and unthinkingly, and seem fearful and confused.   
   Any talk of controlling immigration will stir up trouble in immigrant   
   communities, they maintain. They assume that ethnic minorities   
   themselves want immigration to continue ad infinitum, so they avoid   
   publishing criticism of immigration policies for fear of giving   
   offence - offence, that is, to the ethnic minorities, not the British   
   host population...   
      
   Our increasing multi-racialism will itself become a kind of   
   self-imposed tyranny, and in the end our institutions will be utterly   
   unreformable. One of the great ironies of our time is that Eastern   
   Europe, since the collapse of communism, is now freer than the West.   
   Today it is in the West that criticism of racial or historical dogma   
   can end the career of a scholar or politician, and even send him to   
   prison. By contrast, in Eastern Europe and Russia, now the last   
   enclaves of free white people, one can find plenty of books about race   
   or historical revisionism.   
      
   The warning is clear: Liberalism could well collapse like communism   
   did, and as suddenly. To avoid this, the new élites themselves will   
   have to make a smart move to the Right.
