The Tories have managed to find an even worst London mayoralty candidate than Goldsmith. Let's run a black man who talks like Gerald Batten to show we're not racists.
Multiculturalism 'robs Britain of its community' - Tory London mayor pick
Accommodating Muslims and Hindus risks turning UK into ‘crime-riddled cesspool’, Shaun Bailey wrote in 2005
Accommodating Muslims and Hindus “robs Britain of its community” and risks turning the country into a “crime-riddled cesspool” as a result, the Conservative candidate for London mayor declared in a thinktank pamphlet he wrote a decade ago.
In it, Shaun Bailey voiced concern about the marking of Muslim and Hindu festivals, claimed that children were being taught more about Diwali than Christmas and argued Britain “removing the religion that British people generally take to” had allowed immigrants to bring their country’s cultural problems with them.
In his No Man’s Land pamphlet for the Centre for Policy Studies (pdf), about the problems faced by inner-city youth, Bailey also appeared to confuse Hindi speakers with the Hindu religion.
“You bring your children to school and they learn far more about Diwali than Christmas. I speak to the people who are from Brent and they’ve been having Muslim and Hindi days off. What it does is rob Britain of its community. Without our community we slip into a crime-riddled cesspool,” Bailey wrote in 2005. https://amp.theguardian.com/politics/20 ... -community
