British Media Melts Down over J.D. Vance’s Comments on Mass Migration
Unpleasant truth or outrageous lie? Either way, the British media was reeling from a humorous remark by Trump’s running mate, JD Vance, about the nuclear-armed UK’s rapidly changing demographics.
Almost all Selection subjectsEnglishmanmediaExitCarriedtheirConcerns Regarding comments made by Sen. James David (JD) Vance of Ohio at the National Conference of Conservatives in Washington, D.C., last week after he was selected by former President Donald Trump as his running mate on Monday.
During a 20-minute speech to the conference, in which he spoke about foreign policy, defence and America’s position in the world, Vance repeatedly touched on the issue of immigration, joking about the issue of open borders in the UK and suggesting the problem would be made worse by a new Labour government.
“I’m not a racist,” he said, in comments that were met with laughter and applause.
…By the way, there is one more thing I have to criticize the UK for…Of course, one of the great dangers in the world is nuclear proliferation…Who will be the first truly Islamist country to get nuclear weapons? It could be Iran, Pakistan is already in the number, but because the Labour Party has just come to power, they have decided that it might end up being the UK. But let me say to my Conservative friends, you have got to deal with this problem.
Mass immigration to Britain drives fastest population growth in historyhttps://t.co/uqTbXsPFfX
ParentsIt is the UK’s leading left-leaning news media. Admitted Although the line was said in jest, it still states: “Jokes can be provocative, dangerous, or offensive and reveal a lot about what people are thinking.”
Britain’s new left-wing Labour government, which took office earlier this month and has the highest proportion of white ministers in years despite rhetoric on diversity, issued a statement about Vance through Deputy First Minister Angela Rayner, saying it “does not accept such a characterisation” of the UK.
Labour heavyweight Alastair Campbell responded to Mr Vance’s comments, calling him a dangerous clown.
The Conservatives, as they usually do, went further and called Vance’s comments “actually quite offensive,” which is unsurprising given that the open borders policy of the previous Conservative government (which was ousted after repeatedly breaking promises on the issue) is a huge sore point for the party. In fact, the UK is currently experiencing its highest population growth in history due to mass immigration.
On the surface it is a conservative newspaper, TelegraphSuggest Vance’s comments “have the potential to complicate Sir Keir Starmer’s efforts to build a relationship with the new government,” but the reflection stopped short of delving into the possibility that Starmer’s nominee for foreign secretary, David Lammy, has already done damage here by previously calling Trump a “neo-Nazi-sympathizing sociopath” and a “tyrant in a wig.”
Farage warns that immigration would never have gotten out of control if UK democracy was healthyhttps://t.co/EZqw3XD57r
While British media figures seem uniformly uncomfortable with the suggestion that Britain, currently in a period of unprecedented mass immigration, might be undergoing demographic change, a few were pleased with Vance’s selection. Nigel Farage, leader of the Reform Britain Party and Brexit camp, has fully endorsed Trump, writing on Monday night that Vance is “an excellent choice… he’s a first-class guy.”
While the British media has been hyper-focused on jokes disparaging Vance’s British friends, there was plenty more interesting to find in Vance’s speech to the National Conservative Conference last week, from Washington orthodox concerns about China to the problems of democracy with mass immigration. He said: “The stupidest of all possible foreign policy solutions and answers for our country is to let China make all our stuff and then go to war with China. Maybe we shouldn’t go to war with China if we can, but we shouldn’t let China make all our stuff… That perfectly sums up the stupidest way to govern our country.”
On the breakdown of democracy in the West: “The real threat to American democracy is that American voters keep voting for less immigration, and our politicians keep giving us more immigration. I was talking to a British friend today, and one of the things that’s very clear across the West, across Germany, across the UK, is that people keep asking their leaders to reduce immigration, and their leaders just don’t want to listen. It’s a fundamental breakdown of the translation function in our sacred democracy, and our elites don’t seem to care about that.”
Sure to further incur the ire of the British media and political establishment, which are fiercely attacking Westminster’s core assumptions and beliefs, Vance reflected last week: “If constant immigration was the way to generate wealth and prosperity and drive down house prices, London would be doing fine. But when I was in London last year I have to say it’s not doing so well.”
No way they’re lying. Britain is in recession despite record immigration.https://t.co/Td5l9uDeGc
