English-speaking pupils now the minority in 1,500 British schools

Children who speak English as their first language are a minority in more than 1,500 schools, official figures have revealed.
They show there has been a sharp rise in the number of schools in England where more than half of pupils have a foreign language as their mother tongue.

The statistics released by the Department for Children, Schools and Families show that in 1997, the year Labour came to power, half the pupils in 866 schools spoke English as a second language.

By last year, this figure had jumped to1,545 - a rise of 78 per cent. It means that more than half the pupils in 1,284 primary schools, 210 secondary schools and 51 special schools across England now come from a non-English speaking background.

Around one in seven - almost 500,000 - primary pupils and just over one in ten, or 364,000, secondary students do not speak English as their first language.

Critics said last night that the figures were another sign of the impact of Labour's open door on immigration and that they risked hampering integration.

They also claimed that the data has serious implications for already-stretched school resources.

The statistics also reveal that the impact of immigration has not been spread evenly across the country. London - often the first point of call for immigrants - has been the hardest hit.

Birmingham has 116 schools where more than 50 per cent of pupils have English as a second language, while in Bradford the figure is 60, in Leicester 34, Manchester 33, Lancashire 30, and Kirklees 30.

Arson attack on former BNP Manchester HQ

 

The Ace of Diamonds public house in Miles Platting, Manchester was, up until recently, the HQ of the BNP in Manchester, England. The building was compulsory purchased by Labour controlled Manchester Council under seemingly dubious and politically motivated circumstances.

Friday the 2nd of April 2010 saw this fine old building go up in flames. I was driving past at about 21.00pm when I captured some mobile phone video footage of this famous Manchester landmark going up in smoke.

I am not a BNP member or Supporter, but I totally condemn this attack whether its politically motivated or not. This building was over a hundred years old and was a major focal point of the local community, regardless of the political affiliations of the owner - and as a local myself, its really upsetting to see this part of my past disappear forever.

All right minded people should take no pleasure in the demise of this fine old building. Political spite and vendettas are the tools of the ruling elite - please join me in the condemnation of this Arson Attack.

Pakistanis Using Fake Documents Try To Enter Great Britain

Five Pakistanis have been arrested while trying to fly to Manchester using fake documents.

They checked into Islamabad airport supposedly enroute to Dubai. Once at the airport, they exchanged documents with five other men who had documents for the Manchester flight. Raja Zia Ul Haq, Raja Fizal Ul Haq, Muhammed Usman, Imran Asgher and Abid Hussain were caught on CCTV and arrested, while the British 'nationals' went on to Dubai.

While we all know that Pakistan is a training ground for terrorism, Sky's home affairs correspondant, Mark Wright said:

"the arrests are unlikey to be terrorism related and are more likely related to an immigration offence"

Details of the English Defence League Protest in Manchester on the 10th October 2009 at 17:00

We have been in talks with the Manchester Police Force today (01/10/2009), and our protest to oppose Radical Islam, and Sharia Law has been approved.

We need to be in Manchester as early as possible, and make our way towards Piccadilly Gardens where, at around 13:00, our friends from the UAF will be holding a counter demonstration against our demonstration which would not have even taken place by then? Oh well!

The Conduct on the day.

Everybody now knows (apart from the UAF and their affiliates) that we are a NON racist Organisation, who oppose Radical Islam, and Sharia Law. Not Muslims, but Radical Muslims. Like i said in the last statement, anyone with any other agenda they wish to voice, do so under the umbrella of an organisation that suits your agenda, as Racism will NOT be tolerated in the EDL. We are a Multi ethnic, multi faith organisation.

Meeting Point.

We will be meeting at the Piccadilli Wetherspoons pub next to Piccadilly Gardens, and need to be there as early as possible to aid the Police in facilitating our protest after the "Unite against Freedom", and their wonderfully mis-informed friends disperse. The closest train station is Manchester Piccadilly Station, and is only a short walk from Piccadilly Gardens. There are also many other forms of public transport available in the City.

As in Birmingham, the whole area will be heavily Policed. We need to be at the pub at around 12:00. **I have since been informed that you can turn up later than this, and will not be turned away by the Police** Avoid excessive alcohol consumption, as anyone who appears to be intoxicated will NOT be permitted to take part in the protest.

The Police have asked that all EDL members avoid grouping in the shopping areas around the city, and we ask that you please respect these orders.

The Protest.

Our Protest will be held in Piccadilly Gardens at 17:00, during which we will have an expert speaker present to address everybody, and also a 2 minute silence for all of our Heroic Soldiers lost in Iraq, Afghanistan and indeed every war in history, as without their heroism, our freedom of speech would be non existent. After this, we will all sing our National Anthem. Anyone taking part in any racial, anti-religious or violent behaviour (unless in self defence) will be suspected to have links to either far right, or far left groups, looking to darken the name of the EDL, and will be asked to leave.

We need to prove, once again, that we are a peaceful protest organisation, and violence would never have become a factor at our protests if it was not for the UAF tactics of winding up crowds into thinking we are a "far right racist" Organisation, with links to the BNP.

After the protest, everybody is advised to make their way home.

Anybody who has not yet donated to the EDL, please do so, as the setting up of the organisation has been very costly, and we have so far, apart from a few generous donations, footed the entire costs involved in setting up the EDL, to a point that i for one am pledging all of my time to focus on the EDL, and have recently given up my full time job to do this. Call me nuts, but this is something i feel very strongly about! So please, either donate to the cause by clicking HERE and using the donate button, or support us by purchasing EDL Merchandise

Thank you for all of your support so far, and let's hope that we get a chance to voice our concerns this time.

Yours in hope of a peaceful day,

Trevor Kelway.

English Defence League response to the lies of the UAF and some elements of the press.

Some people need to wake up and stop listening to the unbelievable lies spouted by the UAF and some Islamic MP's. How can anyone call this group far right, facist Nazi's is beyond belief. Since when were Nazi groups multi-race?!?

Next Demo is 10th October in Manchester. Be there in support and hopefully this can put an end to the lies and constant 'right wing' tag. Its not racist to oppose Islamic Extremism!

Scam weddings

Criminal gangs in Manchester and Bradford have been raking in up to £15,000 a time for setting up illegal marriages that allow immigrants to stay in Great Britain.

Slovakian brides and Nigerian grooms were arrested in a swoop on two homes yesterday. Four men from Nigeria, Slovakia and the Czech Republic were also arrested in connection with the scam, while a further six Nigerian men were detained on suspicion of suspected immigration offences.
