I remember how, when I was a young man, before I left England to travel around India for a few months, people would tell me to beware of the culture shock. A shock it was indeed. The poverty and filth in the Indian cities was enough to bring tears to my eyes.
For me though, the poverty and squalor was easy to escape from, I could just get on a plane. One day on an Air India flight to Delhi, I couldn’t help but notice that the plane was full of well-to-do businessmen, bureaucrats and the like, the sort of people that you would very rarely see on the streets.
As the plane circled over Delhi waiting to land, I looked out of the window. I could see the many thousands of fires burning in the streets below, fires used by the millions of people living in the streets to keep warm at night or to cook food.
There were two separate worlds side by side in India, one world where people – the minority – flew everywhere by jet and stayed in luxury hotels, and the other – the majority – a world where people lived in the streets and lit fires to stay warm and cook.
India has changed since I was last there in the early nineties. Back then the middle classes lived in shanty towns. I always remember the equivalent of suburbs around the Indian cities: tiny hovels without windows, tightly packed rows of dwellings in what seemed like a maze of streets. The Indian economy has forged ahead in the years since I last visited India. Some of the middle classes have benefited but poverty is still rife.
The story is the same in much of Asia. People – the masses – are working extremely long hours for very little money. Here’s a very interesting video about a young woman and mother of two children that works extremely long hours selling banana pancakes on the streets of Bangkok to scrape a living. She sees her children once a month and is lucky to get four hours of sleep a night: “A Day In The Life Of Banana Pancake Roti Lady Bangkok – Working Hard Long Hours Every Single Day”
What shocked me the most about Asia but particularly India was the contempt that many of the better off minority had for the people in the streets. Here’s a quote from one businessman that I spoke to: “oh they’re just beggars, pay no attention to them, just step over them.”
The conclusion that I came to after my first visit to Asia was that poverty is what happens when you allow populations to exceed the ability of their countries’ economies to employ and feed them. Indeed, the Indian cities were a massive sea of people all trying to scratch a living.
The situation was more complicated though. At the time of my visit, the maximum permissible wage in India was the equivalent of seven thousand five hundred pounds a year, but there were more millionaires – billionaires today – in India than anywhere else in the world. Perhaps some people were getting more than their fair share, complicated indeed, but I’m no Socialist.
This is the culture shock that I experienced as a young man visiting India for the first time: an extreme from luxury living to living in the gutters rotting from filth and disease. I would suggest though that you are all about to experience a similar culture shock, not in some third world country but in once Great Britain. This article from Breitbart caught my eye: “Leaders of UK, Scotland, Ireland, London Now all of South Asian Heritage“
I’m sure you all don’t need me to tell you about this, you’re already aware. South Asian heritage, a heritage and culture totally alien to our own – but they’re running our country. All wealthy individuals. I’ve seen the contempt such Asians have for their own people living in poverty, I very much doubt they’re going to care much for the plight of the British.
Today in our country, jobs are disappearing at a very rapid rate, the population is growing at an exponential rate due to immigration, the numbers don’t add up, we’re heading for Third World status with increasing rapidity. We have indigenous Brits and army veterans living on the streets while illegal immigrants are living in four star hotels.
There are thousands of military aged invaders living at our expense and our government has been taken over by an alien culture. That sounds very much like an invasion to me and it is having very negative consequences. The British people now have very little political representation in their native land.
Here’s the latest video by Neil McCoy-Ward: “EUROPE Is Getting WORSE By The Day!” Neil talks about the decline of Western civilisation, claiming that it has peaked and I agree with him. European cities are burning and soon it will be our turn. Neil also mentions his recent trip to Birmingham and how once nice areas are now ghettos ruled by gangs, real slum areas just as, if not worse, than those I found in Asia many years ago. Many British cities are rapidly heading in the same direction: poverty, homelessness, crime, violence, unemployment and rampant inflation – not much of an achievement from many years of the LibLabCon and our current alien government don’t have a great track record either.
I leave you with one last article: “Bombshell Vax Analysis Finds $147 Billion In Economic Damage, Tens Of Millions Injured Or Disabled“. This is another way that our government has betrayed us. There is now a tsunami of information coming out about vaccine injuries and deaths. Governments try and cover this up but the truth is coming out. It was obvious to anybody with any sense that these vaccines weren’t safe and that there was a more sinister agenda going on, yet our government wap complicit: why are none of them in Prison?
It seems that our cosy little country, the country that our ancestors fought and died for, to provide for us, has been callously betrayed. The Liberal, Lefty lunatics that are prepared to give away our country: I will never have any time for them!
Flyer. Thank you for the Neil McCoy Ward link. I watched it last night. We all know what America does when the dollar is under threat. For news across the pond I follow Canadian Prepper for a ‘daily dose of doom and gloom’. He has excellent guests on a regular basis. Peter Schiff was bumped for this latest video which touches on the China / Brazil trade agreements and the end of the US dollar hegemony. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrw_DCh-4M4
From Katie Hopkins:
“Katie Hopkins: Who is Humza Yousaf? Get the lowdown on the guy about to head up Scotland…”
I would say we are presently on a fast track to filthy streets here in the UK and general lowering of standards. The town where I live which has a Conservative run Borough Council and where the sitting Conservative MP has a 25,000 majority is strewn with litter and all the surrounding main roads and grass verges are caked with food packaging, bottles, tin cans and plastic packaging because street cleansing no longer occurs having been cut to save money. Leaves and other debris lie in gutters and drains, and lorry sweeper that used to come round no longer does and when it rains the roads flood because the water cannot go down the drains. It isn’t just the national Conservative government that doesn’t work but also local Conservative government that has gone the same way. I don’t know why the Conservatives call themselves ‘conservative any longer, because they haven’t done any conserving for years. They are just running this once great country into the ground and with most roads in a terrible state of disrepair with pot holes and ruts we are fast becoming a third world country.
Yess well fine flyer. What about your paganism? Doesn’t that always finish up whith the same situation? A top god or gods ruling.
Not that I care what gods you choose to worship. My point is that in any system some rise to the top and many more remain at the bottom.
Yesterday’s report of a deranged WOMAN was mind numbing. It took me a while to work out that it was a woman, and no amount of mind and body altering drugs was going to change that. She was no less or more insane than anybody else using lethal weapons against innocent adults and children and that is heart breaking. Thank goodness she’s dead.
Today’s article is almost as soul destroying but it had to be said. My husband travelled extensively around India, Africa and the Middle East in the seventies and eighties ultimately as a Chief Engineer, and one (of many) of the things that stuck out was the assumption that politicians were voted into power to make themselves very rich and no other reason no matter what they told the eligible voters beforehand. They held everyone in complete contempt and openly flashed their ill gotten gains and still demanded stuff for free. Corruption was and still is rife and you can’t even board a plane in some countries without paying to get through security. Welcome to the future (CBDC/covid passport).
A pox on all of them.
Excellent article flyer. We surely wouldn’t be allowed into government in their country yet our country, now including Scotland, has been given away to them. No chance that any of us could be elected to government in their countries, even if that were our aim or maybe now even into “our” own governments as a native white Brit.
The corruption of our now, insane, education system has been the ruination of Britain. Because our children are now taught to denigrate and apologise for the British Empire and everything it stood for (as if Britain was the only Nation to have adopted empirical aspirations!). Pride in Nationhood is now forbidden. They are also taught to embrace a sybaritic lifestyle. That ‘sexual’ pleasures (any which way you please) are completely divorced from the idea of ‘love’ and ‘family cohesion’. Respect for human life is dangerously low! The pursuit of perversions of the ‘normal’ World such as the decreed ‘absolute truth’ of ‘transgender’ is now so much in the ascendant that one must assume that it is truly a deliberately cultivated imbecility. The importation of millions of persons from cultures and beliefs has turned this once great Country into a sea of ‘multicultural depravity’!
All has been done at the will and pleasure of forces extant in the World that, for some dark purpose, think that this ‘mixing of the multitudes’ will somehow ensure that they remain obscenely wealthy and perpetually ‘in control’! I think they are delusional. I am sure that their ‘melting pot’ will result in them also being caught up in the maelstrom that will undoubtedly follow! They may believe that they might retire to their luxurious underground bunkers and continue to rule over their creation. But I do not think that they will survive any more than those of us whom they have impoverished and brought low will survive.
Frederica, there is one point I often wish to make. Other European nations tended to build their Empires within Europe. E.g. Spain. Or very close by, eg France and Algeria. England ventured out around the whole world with nothing to power the ships but wind. Then, when it became appropriate to do so we changed our empire into a commonwealth. Just one reason why I hate the corruption of the education system and remain a ‘British Patriot’.
Few people realise that up to the 1700s India and China were the largest and most successful economies in the World until the Europeans set out to plunder and corrupt them. The Indian economy has just grown larger than Britain’s economy and may overtake Germany and possibly Japan in short time. China is forecast to overtake the mighty US economy in short time too.
No wonder the Western rich and powerful are now turning to plunder and corrupt their own, the low hanging fruit have gone.
Those who vote for establishment parties may consider looking to themselves when seeking someone to blame for their impending financial hardships!
I was in India in 1997. The caste system (which is real and enduring) combines with the fatalism of Hinduism to produce a complex issue that has proven intractable even though Indian governments have tried to eradicate it (allegedly).
The attitude of the well off was indeed shocking. It is way more than indifference. It seems to include a moral contempt for lower castes that is quite resistant to change. I saw sweat shops exploiting child labour. The pace and intensity at which the children had to work was shocking and they worked long hours. I doubt they got holiday and sick pay.
As Chairman of an education charity I had an Indian accountant. On one audit the team visiting included an Indian and I noticed a problem between them that was not explained until I discovered the auditor was from a higher caste. What surprised me was that they instinctively (or intuitively) discerned this about each other. It was much subtler than an Englishmen with an upper class name dealing with someone called Smith.
In north London, unreported by the media but told to me by an ex-policeman taxi driver, Armenians and Turks are fighting most days of the week. In Leicester recently, recall, muslims and hindus battled on the streets. Superficially, ‘agitators’ are involved in flare ups but they succeed because of the underlying conditions in the various cultures that now make up the UK. While canvassing in Bradford during the 2017 election, the commonest question on the doorstep, according to conservative candidate Mark Trafford, was what was his position on Kashmir. The government plays whack a mole with problems of immigration but, eventually, it will fail to keep up.
With immigration we import so much more than spicy food and corner shops. Our class system is being eclipsed by stratifications and antagonisms that we do not understand and which has consequences for social cohesion that has still to unfold. Just this week a taxi driver, called Ahmed, recounted a proverb in comment on Sadiq Khan (whom we were both criticising), and said “In my country…” revealing that my country is not his in his allegiance.
The left in France and elsewhere dismiss these problems as ultimately solved by créolisation. Yet when the Soviet Union collapsed, or Yugoslavia after strongman Tito no longer kept a lid on the country, there was no enduring créolisation at all.
The only debate left is over when the UK passed the point of no return for pass it we surely have done. One can only try and extract some pleasure from the remnants of our culture as we try and warm ourselves on its dying embers. Mrs Yeoman and I are going to a dinner-talk tonight on Noel Coward. Not just a figure from modern history but from an entirely different world.
Stout – I didn’t get around to talking about the caste system in India, I was being a bit more general and mentioned other parts of Asia. You are absolutely right, the Indian caste system is horrible when you see it in action. Some Indian women are horrible, unbearable snobs, they can be very ignorant but think that they are superior because of their caste.
Traitor Ted Heath was British. Boris Johnson is British and rushed the Trade Agreement through Parliament when others were distracted. Sunak is of Indian, Hindu, descent and has sneaked his Windsor Framework through Parliament by Statutuary Instrument. What difference is there?
flyer. Just keep banging the rocks together in your Hadron Colliders.
Surely we all know by now our Uniparty so called parliamentary system is intent on a) returning us to the EU nd b) enslaving us to the UN world government.
Pauline, (a) and (b) absolutely. However it seems that as great a problem is the many who refuse to open their eyes and minds, preferring to focus on their chosen entertainments and suchlike. I expect that things will have to worsen a great deal more before those people can be awakened.
The caste system is just another racism.
Frederica comments Respect for human life is dangerously low! My mother and her Dad both urdu and hindustani spepakers used to tell of living in Inja. Human life was/is cheap and their stories undoubtably true. Inja Karachi- Car hits tree on route to work. Two dead in front seats. A week later, still there. Similar story for me in Nigeria, Port Harcourt. Upside down lorry in ditch. Probably still there.
So we import that way of life. Super.
Many thanks for this bang-on article Flyer.
I think your description of our enemies as Liberal Lefty lunatics describes them perfectly, except it should surely include “evil- doing psychopaths !” They’re Bad and Sad as well as Mad !!!!!
But just one observation: looking at the plight of destitute countries (our own included now), the conflict we face is not one of Right versus Left , but of Right versus Wrong ! Andrew Bridgen said that recently, and how true !
The Right-Left labels, if misunderstood by voters, can be unhelpful if they don’t understand the dangers of Big Government. Or if they simply think that Left policies mean a fairer distribution of resources, without taking into account the humungeous corruption especially by the parasites at the top, or the concept of the Magic Money Tree ! Too many voters think the Tories are Right Wing, and Labour Left Wing: when in reality they’re both cheeks of the same globocap backside.
We know that but so many voters don’t, it seems.
As if that wasn’t enough, there’s also voting fraud and then the imported vote…..
Unlike Viv, I’m not throwing coffee cups at the wall, I’m throwing empty whisky bottles at the wall !!!! (Because of the booze tax however they were empty to start with !!!!!)
flyer- can only agree. You are not alone in your observations.
Picture looks like Marble Arch on a weekday twenty years ago – without the poo on the pavement.
I’ll take a look at the redirects you posted when time permits.
I’m no poetry buff, but read this many, many years ago. With a few words substituted here and there, or interpreted to today’s situation . . . well you decide.
The Fleet by Alfred Lord Tennyson
The fleet of England is her all-in-all; Her fleet is in your hands, And in her fleet her fate. You, you, that have the ordering of her fleet, If you should only compass her disgrace, When all men starve, the wild mob’s million feet Will kick you from your place, But then too late, too late.
. . . the fate of England is her all-in-all . . well you decide.
Yes Flyer, That has been my opinion too. I now do what I want and ignore the lies of any global problem.
Look after No1 first and always first. By that I mean family and those with the same opinion as me.
The fools who follow so called Greenies will need to remove the mask covering their eyes, they are on the road to no where.
I too have traveled in Asia, South America and Africa. The purpose of government in these places is to maintain the status quo, ie the rich to remain rich. The poor there these days are aware of their poverty (which they weren’t in earlier times) and are now intent on flight to better places.
The trouble is, they bring their sh*tty culture with them and try to inflict it on us. They have no useful skills, little education and believe that just arrival in the “west/north” will bring instant wealth.
Being housed in 4* hotels on arrival reinforces this belief and the news is spread thus encouraging others.
I wonder if this is all a master plan by the Russians/Chinese/other hostile powers to destroy the West.
It seems to be working.
harry f armitrage- ”The trouble is, they bring their sh*tty culture”.
No harry, ‘The trouble is, the the brainwashed enbrace their sh*tty culture’.
……..and they vote for more of it!
The West are destroying themselves and it is our own rich and powerful that are doing the planning. The transfer of wealth from poor to rich is planned by our own. Anyone voting for an establishment party is aiding them with their agenda.
Thank you Flyer for this excellent article. Totally agree, Jake that the West is destroying itself. Due to the sanctions that the West put on Russia many countries are turning to the yuan and rupee to buy their goods. Russia is rich in oil, gas, minerals and other commodities but being severed from SWIFT and angered that the West confiscated their dollar assets Putin found a way to outmanoeuvre the system that had been imposed by the USA and EU. It sells its commodities to its other major trading partners, China and India, in yuan and rupees. The BRICS development is growing in strength and countries are queueing up to join. In the last few days countries, such as Brazil, are signing treaties to trade in yuan. After all, why risk being ‘sanctioned’ by the West if you are regarded as being over friendly to Russia or China. It’s wise to get in early and fix an advantageous exchange rate deal. As more commodity trading takes place in the yuan and rupee then the more demand for those currencies will grow. This will weaken the dollar abroad leading to hyperinflation. If the Fed prints more dollars to pile on debt and domestic inflation will go into the stratosphere . Brace yourself for soaring prices due to the plunging purchase power of the dollar, (euro and pound sterling) and the Maslow hierarchy of needs will mean that any tensions bubbling under as we rub along in our culturally enriched societies will explode.
This is an interesting viewpoint on what is happening to the currency markets

So much for the US dollar hegemony. Reuters reports that China has made its first yuan liquefied natural gas trade deal. Chinese national oil company CNOOC and France’s Total Energies made their trade on the Shanghai Petroleum and National Gas Exchange.
Ceri – Here’s a video by Neil McCoy-Ward, just out and it deals with this subject. I’ve written about this stuff myself over the years and now here we are. America is in trouble it won’t be able to sustain its debt.
