Communism/Socialism and the EU believe in a nationality free world where all are one. My wife grew up in the USSR in Central Asia. They were taught Russian not their native Kyrgyz. They were not Kyrgyz but citizens of the USSR. This is why Putin claims that former members of the Soviet bloc have no right to a separate existence.

IThe EU wants to become a Unitary state. It can only truly achieve that aim by removing nationality and making people accept that they are Europeans. It has been a slow erosion of history promoted by successive governments and happily taught in schools and Universities. Tory governments should have reversed it and did nothing. Now valuing our history gets one branded as Far Right or Racist. My wife, 22 years here with a successful career, voted Brexit because the EU reminded her of the USSR. She's a proud Brit as are so many who know what socialism does to people's lives.

As long ago as 1911, Booker T Washington said "I am afraid that there is a certain class of race-problem solvers who don't want the patient to get well, because as long as the disease holds out they have not only an easy means of making a living, but also an easy medium through which to make themselves prominent before the public". The best way to stop racism is to stop talking about it, not to always be talking about it. No doubt there is another department of the government scratching their heads wondering why Patriotic Alternative and their ilk are doing the rounds.
