Can you believe Morrissey is a racist?


Morrissey is suing NME for defamation, accusing the magazine of misquoting him about his views on immigration.He's quoted by the magazine as saying, "With the issue of immigration, it's very difficult because, although I don't have anything against people from other countries, the higher the influx into England the more the British identity disappears. If you walk through Knightsbridge on any bland day of the week you won't hear an English accent. You'll hear every accent under the sun apart from the British accent".

Morrissey's spokeswhore said, "They have not only misquoted Morrissey, they have omitted critical parts of the interview and distorted the tone of the piece, his responses and the questions he was asked in order to try and present an inflammatory case".

Since when was talking out abou immigration racist? Like Morrissey I believe that proper racism is wrong and that there should be a small minority of foreign citizens in Britain. But mass uncontrolled immigration has gotten out of hand. They come in and get housing before our own people - and it is changing the nature of Britain. It is politically correct leftist do-gooders that are the true racists. It is these people who make white British people feel like second-class citizens in their own country. The NME magazine is obviously an anti-British publication.
