I listened to Rupert's Joe Rogan podcast and it's sort of clear that Rupert doesn't actually know 20th century British history.
(🧵)
Joe Rogan starts off by straight up asking Rupert why there are "rape gangs" in the UK and how it's being received.
A minute later, he's talking about Brexit and how it wasn't a "proper Brexit" but he did a good as an MEP fighting for "a kind of" Brexit.
🫨😲😐
okay, let's try that again.
Rupert says that "multiculturalism" and the general souring of Europe on nation states because of Napoleon (!!!) caused the rape gangs. He mentions Jean Monnet and Altiero Spinelli.
Joe Rogan asks for clarification and asks whether he thinks multiculturalism was done "on purpose" to diminish nationalism and asks who implemented it.
Lowe answers "European Elites in league with Our Elites" and starts talking about the EEC which Britain joined in 1975. Then starts talking about gold reserves being shipped to Germany, and of course Brexit again.
So Lowe has repeatedly been asked why there are gangs of Pakistani's in Britain who kidnap, drug and rape little girls, and has kept veering off into Brexit land and the EU where he feels more comfortable.
Did the EEC/EU introduce Windrush migrants and Mirpuris into Britain?
Well, no. The EU is basically a complete irrelevance to this phenomenon.
Mirpuri/Pakistani inflows were a British Commonwealth matter, not European. UK governments and employers recruited workers from former colonies to fill gaps.
Most of the foothold of Mirpuris was established before 1973 when Britain joined the EEC, and by then primary labor migration from the Commonwealth had already been heavily restricted by the Commonwealth Immigrants Acts of 1962 and 1968, and the Immigration Act 1971.
In fact, the Immigration Act 1971 can into force on 1 January 1973 - the exact same day the UK joined the EEC. What a coincidence!
It wasn't a coincidence. Informally there was an understanding that for Britain to be allowed into the EEC, it had to cut off the commonwealth.
So the act (1971 immigration act) that most strongly limited the Mirpuri Pakistanis from coming into Britain was passed because of the EU (the EEC at the time) and worries that other member states would object to secondary migration from Pakistan to Europe via the UK
Okay, so how did millions of clannish Pakistanis end up in Britain then?
Early immigration from Pakistan had its conceptual origin in the The British Nationality Act 1948, which essentially gave British Citizenship to 450–500 million non-white commonwealth subjects.
Wait, what?
They just gave 500 million nonwhite people the legal right to move to Britain?
Well, actually, no. Laws on immigration within the British empire were basically non-existent. Britain was supermajority white in 1947 because moving was hard and expensive.
It was only in 1948 that British Commonwealth citizens actually physically started arriving in the form of the Empire Windrush, which arrived at Tilbury Docks in Essex on June 22, 1948 carrying about 800 Carribean Africans.
British Pathé has a newsreel on the arrival of the HMT Empire Windrush which looks like something out of a propaganda movie from Fallout designed to give the viewer a deep sense of foreboding about what's going to happen next:
As as these fine young urban scholars began arriving, a group of MPs penned a letter to Clement Atlee warning that immigration of "coloreds" to britain could cause a "racial problem" and "impair social cohesion"
Atlee's letter from 78 years ago is shown below:
(...)

Attlee ends his letter saying "I doubt whether there is likely to be a similar large influx"

Fast forward 6 just years to 1954, and the numbers have increased from a few hundred to about 10,000 per year.
Hansard records a parliamentary debate about Jamaican immigration and the looming threat of several hundred million "British Subjects" of "Various races and colors":
By 1958, just 10 years after Windrush, the first race riots started happening.
British Pathe editorializes by saying that "opinions differ" on Britain's racial makeup, but that the question shouldn't be settled by violence.
Motives include black males going after white women
Meanwhile, by 1962 there are 8000 Pakistanis in Bradford alone:
By this point, the grooming gangs had probably already started, though awareness of what was happening at the time was minimal.
There are plenty of newspaper reports from the period, though as this is over 60 years ago we'll probably never know the full extent of it.
J'accuse has an article on this:

Meanwhile in the early 1960s in Pakistan, a large civil engineering project - the Mangla Dam - had displaced over 100,000 people and they all had an easy route to resettle in Britain:
There was already some political pushback from Oswald Mosely - he gave a speech in Kensington about how they might deal with the local mass migration of Africans.
But by now, Mosley had enemies who physically beat him and his supporters.
Who were these violent "street leftists"?
These pro-migration street fighters were the "62 group" - financed in part by the Jewish Aid Committee of Britain (JACOB) and other Jewish groups
So by the early 1960s, we already had the full package
- mass immigration due to both push and pull factors
- ethnically English/Scots/Welsh areas being displaced by people from the third world
- major political parties refusing to do anything about it
- far right groups
...
- ... and far left groups financed and partially staffed by Jewish and zionist interests like JACOB, AJEX, etc fighting to prevent any effective action against mass immigration
And the native British people being largely apathetic and continuing to vote for the uniparty
The EEC wasn't even founded until January 1, 1958. Between 1945 and the early 1960s, Britain was not part of any of the EU/EEC efforts and even tried to develop and alternative organization - the European Free Trade Association (EFTA).
Britain was well out of Europe.
Oh, and I almost forgot - Clement Attlee was a Fabian, just like Andy Burnham
Searchlight grew directly out of the 62 Group, and Searchlight spawned Hope Not Hate which now publishes hit-pieces on my X mutuals
We are basically fighting (and losing) exactly the same war as our grandfathers' and great grandfathers' generation.
And no, Rupert, it's not because of Brexit and the EU.
