Black Female Member of Parliament Is Discovered to be an Anti-Minority Racist By Noting that "Not All Cultures Are Equal" and Saying That She Wants the UK to Embrace Western Values, Not the Third-World Values of the Country She Fled

Obviously this black woman is a White Adjacent Racist who should be investigated for her ties to January 6th.

Skinfolk ain't always kinfault, am I right? (Kamala Fake Accent ON) Mmmm-hm, chiiiiiile, you know what I'm sayin'. (Lunatic cackling ensues.)

Kemi Badenoch's perfectly legitimate view, that 'not all cultures are equally valid' when it comes to deciding who should be allowed to settle in the UK, has been greeted with outrage from the usual suspects.
The UK Tory leadership contender made the point in a piece outlining her approach to immigration for the Sunday Telegraph. She writes that Britain is not simply 'a dormitory for people to come here and make money', and that migrants' cultural backgrounds matter, too. 'We cannot be naïve and assume immigrants will automatically abandon ancestral ethnic hostilities at the border', she adds.
She expanded on her op-ed during a discussion last weekend, on the BBC's Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg. 'Cultures that believe in child marriage, or that women don't have equal rights' are not in line with 'Western principles', she said.
None of this should be controversial. Badenoch is right to point out that most politicians only want to talk about the economic impact of immigration -- whether positive or negative -- on growth, productivity and wages. Too many ignore the cultural impact of immigration. And the truth is that certain migrants from certain backgrounds find it easier to integrate into British society and adopt its liberal democratic values than others.
Badenoch is also correct to warn of the danger of importing ethnic hostilities to the UK, and disrupting domestic community relations....
Furthermore, immigration can also import political conflicts....
In her Sunday Telegraph piece, Badenoch drew attention to the importation of anti-Israel hatred to the UK. There are plenty of criticisms to make of the Netanyahu-led Israeli government, and there's a strong case to be made for the UK to officially recognise Palestinian statehood. But large parts of the pro-Palestine movement go well beyond such calls for Palestinian self-determination. This includes the frequent chanting of anti-Jewish slogans and the displaying of pro-Hamas symbols. This not only shows a flagrant disregard for the law (it is an offence to glorify terrorism), it also intimidates and endangers Britain's Jewish communities.
...
Badenoch has a point. The UK desperately needs a new post-Brexit settlement when it comes to immigration -- one that takes into account both economics and culture.

44 And yet, Kennedy's Immigration Act in '65 deliberately favors those we have previously "discriminated" against and discriminates against those who share our culture. Europeans and others from Western nations are penalized. I've met people in Paris and UK who would love to come, but they are not able to get in.

So now we have millions of people who do not share our values, and govt makes no effort to assimilate them. Because that would be discrimination again.

Or so say the globalists that are trying to destroy the better cultures, especially the Christian West.

In the Western Culture of rewarding the most able, it is obvious that the betters win, and that is better for all of society.

There is also the contrary, that the most murderous and powerful win, and force all into subjection.

We have lived in the assumption that good prevails over such evil. I hope that is true, but can't assume that is our current scenario.

77 ARC, that would be consistent with IDF practice and precision. Russians in Latakia and now Homs area getting a front row seat to what their partners are up against.

It's not just a Wagner base - regular Russian military are there too.

Just Israel's way of indicating that Iran isn't going to be allowed to export arms to Lebanon through a Russian base.

Israel and Russia have a hot line to manage conflicts in Syria - I'm sure the Israelis made that quite clear (in fluent Russian) after the strike.

THIS. Why should anyone have a say in how taxes are spent if they didn't contribute to those taxes? I'd include members of the military along with taxpayers; they contribute in kind, so fair enough, and the should have a say in how the military is used.

But if someone does not pay taxes (as 47% of electorate does not) and is not a member or former member of the military, then they should just get to stay home on election day.

And as for "refunds" the leftists disingenuously call it an "earned income tax CREDIT." A "credit" is something that is applied against future liabilities. What they're getting is Federal welfare, straight up.

In case folks forgot what Trump did to FEMA’s relief fund; but you remember, don’t you, Donald? You also remember what you did when North Carolina was seeking relief after Hurricane Matthew hit in 2016—you gave them 1% of what they requested. So perhaps you can sit on your BS concern about “our fellow citizens crying out in need.”

The Soviets and other dictators know how to handle this. You create an alternate HR department where people can complain about the main HR department.

When needed, HR2 can purge HR1 and vice versa. In the USSR it was the KGB and the GRU (military intelligence). In Nazi Germany, it was the SS and Abwehr.

Anything they do beyond that is negative value, which includes all DEI, culture, and sensitivity crap.

Posted by: Helena Handbasket at October

No, because if we get real HR, they better be doing way more than this and should not be admins on steroids. J is the Sr. VP of HR and Finance. We need this type of person. He is brutal. He isn’t soft. But he knows operations inside and out.

I was labor and employee relations for 99% of my career. I did a stint as overall VP, but my tail wags for LER and always will. I can recruit and retain, I can do succession planning, but I don’t really want to do it. I would rather put pencils in my eyes than benefits. I mean, I don’t do any of it anymore in my role as kept woman, except consult every now and again. But I could go back if I had to do so.
