I disagree that multiculturalism in general is fundamentally wrong, I think there's lots of problems with some aspects but I think they are fixable. I also think it's impossible to change to a monoculture. Night all!

I agree with all of that. Sorry but I am not sure what your point is.

It comes from this description of Brighton's first season in the Championship under Poyet. https://experimental361.com/explanations/explanations-scatters/

Apologies then, I'm not making myself clear. I'm just giving examples of countries or groups who believe in global separation as you said you'd never heard of it. Most definitely, the KKK are a far-right group. They're very closely linked to the American Nazi Party to the point that they are...

Not if you disagree with them and not if the number of people who hold those views are so inconsequential as to be irrelevant.

In the USA, the Ku Klux Klan and others hold it so dear that they refer to it as "the 14 words" ("We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children.") and has mythical status. Likewise, the Muslim Brotherhood are also staunchly separatist. The best example is Japan...

I think you're being facetious. There's many things that can be done. Fairer distribution of immigrants would avoid ghettos, the shock-factor on the local culture and strains on services. It also helps when immigrants are able to understand the culture they are moving into, encouraged to mix as...

Of course not. I'm genuinely not trying to insinuate anything nor do I think you're a racist. I agree that immigration should be controlled and not out of fear but to make it better for everyone all round.

Because to be a Brexiteer is to have a passionate interest in European politics and to be opposed to the EU.

I agree. I said I can see where there argument is coming from but as you point out, it's completely flawed.

A bit unfair. Anyone who is politically-motivated enough to call themselves a Brexiteer will almost certainly also be interested in European politics and the possibility of another major country leaving the EU.

My words are woolly because I'm trying to be as general as possible, and probably failing. You get far-right parties who say that they aren't being hateful when they say that multiculturalism doesn't work and the best solution is each race to live separately but respecting and trading with each...

I think you're on a slippery slope if you just define it in terms of anti-globalisation. All sorts of political views and parties fundamentally opposed to far-right politics will get lumped into the pot. You're also kind of taking the view that if you regard the far-right as anti-democratic...

My view too.

I would define far-right as a party committed to very big government, Statist, a command economy and underpinned with nationalist policies that are deliberately discriminatory. Just my view but I think a lot of people call Trump far-right because they consider him to be racist and far-right/...

It's a bit more than that. Openly racist, a Nazi sympathiser and holocaust denier. If Marine had a different father then she wouldn't attract half as much suspicion but it's only natural and very sensible to wonder if she genuinely disagrees with her father's politics or if it's all a show. She...

One of the largest economies in the world, the country that gave us Dumas and Hugo and provided the blueprint for modern democratic republics has just seen 5 million voters choosing a far-right candidate. Strange times. 856232268473487360

Spot on. The far-right have always had so much more in common with the far-left than the centre-right. I would have loved to have seen Nick Griffin, who is emigrating to Hungary.(oh sweet irony, how dost thou tease me), forced to explain his fiscal and monetary policies based on a strict command...

It's a fascinating election, if that's the right word to use. If you take race and immigration out of the equation, Le Pen is running on a traditional Gallic protectionist, left-wing platform that has appeal to the older French voters whereas her party's nationalism has huge appeal with 18-25...
