The Dream Is Dead – Europe Admits Mass Migration Has Failed

For decades, there were activists, academics and politicians on the Continent who looked at Britain, rolled their eyes and tutted. The thought us insular – well, we are an island. We were too attached to our own history and identity, we banged on about the Second World War, defeating Hitler and Nazism; the Great War and defeating the Kaiser and before him, Napoleon, and seeing off the Spaniards in 1588. OK, I admit that’s stretching it a bit. As for the Industrial Revolution, Parliament, the Judiciary, the great universities….. Big deal, they said. Boring, they added.
