    Recent migrants do not consider the new country as home, they identify as their motherland. My family migrated to Australia in 1984, we embraced Australia as our home, we speak English at home, we are now a multi-culture family, I am Australian. I see around me migrants that live in their bubble only speaking English when they have too as they live in suburbs that cater to their nationality and religion, can attend schools in their religious beliefs. In Australia we are too accomodating that we forget we are a Christian society and need to also demand respect for our beliefs.

      Eh, I would argue that while Chinese migrants are generally hard working, they should not be welcomed in significant numbers. They are just as prone to creating their own parallel societies as muslims. In just 30 years, for example, Chinese and Indian immigrants completely took over Canadian cities, such as Vancouver. In 30 years they went from 2% of the population to 40%, and today in some regions you can only see chinese signs on the streets.

    This mistake was made mostly by leftist community workers and social assistants that proudly told immigrants that they didn't have to change their culture and that their own culture was as valid as ours. Tell that to highly conservative people from Anatolian backwaters and be surprised you have killings for the "honour of the family" some time after. There was already then (1980) a great deal of virtue signalling in it: we're such a tolerant society and I am such a compassionate person.
    It took little time for the immigrants to think out that not only their culture was as valid as ours; it was even much more valid! It was superior! So why integrate? On the contrary, it was their duty to bring us into THEIR superior culture!

    No. Hyper Immigration is the problem. It is impossible to assimilate such vast numbers in such a short period of time, even if there was the political will to do so. For too many, moving to a country to improve their lives is solely about a financial consideration. For perhaps the vast majority, it has little to nothing to do with wishing to live in compliance with that new nations culture.

      I eat street food fairly frequently. In kebab / gyros places I meet a lot of these people, and they give me a wrong order half the time. There are perhaps 3 parameters regarding a gyros
      -Rice or fries
      -Chili sauce or no

    It depends on the kind of immigration. Example: If 100,000 Norwegians immigrated to Germany or Sweden then they would integrate and assimilate much easier and more successfully. Why? Because they all share a very similar culture, heritage, religion, language and ethnicity. Bring in 100,000 Arabs, Africans and Turks etc into Germany, Sweden or Norway etc, then the majority of them do not integrate and assimilate very easily because of their vastly different cultures, religions and ethnicity. It's not rocket science. It would be like if a 100,000 Norwegians immigrated to Saudi Arabia or Iran. I bet most Norwegians, even after two or three generations still would not really integrate or assimilate and would likely form their own "Norwegian community."

    Respectfully, Ferguson and those of his ilk who advocate on behalf of (mass) immigration do so on the supposition that European immigration to North American is analogous to third world migration into the Western World. The former community was essentially uniform in language, religion and customs, while the former represent communities which hate both one another and their host nations.
    The West can no more survive the inundation of peoples who bear no resemblance or fealty to European/British society than an aquarium of dolphins exist among a population of piranha.
    Ferguson, et al consider themselves sufficiently insulated from the affects of the third world's campaign to displace the rightful heirs to Western society, yet they would do well to consider that they too will eventually have a day of reckoning with their future demographic masters.

    It really does depend on numbers and the strenght/focus of integration/assimilation. Comparing my own country of Norway to our neighbours Sweden we see this very clearly. We have had a "restrictive" aka sensible immigration policy since we first started, with a clear demand of integration and system that has most immigrants needing to learn to language, and the partake in our culture, regardless of where they came from. We have also debated the pro's and con's of immigration on our society openly since it started, and not been censored in the same way we see in many other nations.
    So a few things that seems to have been important and noteworthy:
    When people first arrive, they get sent to various parts of the country, so we avoid ghettos and paralel societies. They are also required to take mandatory language courses and learn about our culture and history.
    We have had a decrease in crime over the last 25 years of immigration, most of my fellow country men are positive to it, and we rank second in the world of social mobility for second generation immigrants.
    Most people I've spoken too and seen in interviews sees Norway as their home, and seem to appriciate the opportunity they have been given in coming here, and in turn wish to contribute to our society. During these last few weeks there has been no desecration of our monuments, and no large pro-Hamas "demonstrations" with chants supporting genocide.
    Everything is ofc not just rosy red, and we have had our share of fanatical religious elements as well. But most of those have thankfully been deported, our intelligence service seems to do a good job of monitoring and infiltrating those that are seen as potential terrorists, and the Muslim community in our country openly talks about how to best work against radicalisation and seem to be willing to take their share of the responsibility.
    I was also very proud to see that most of the people in the forefront of fighting back against the attempted infestation of "wokeism" and its racist views, was second generation immigrants. And as for illegal immigrants, a recent survey in 2022 done by our police force, found that less than 0,2% of those that was in the country illegally has stayed.
    Compared to Sweden's "saviour complex", failure to integrate/assimilate and blind adherence to "multiculturalism", wich has led to the extreme rise in violent crime, "no go zones", and a native populace that feels betrayed, dejected and overlooked. I cant think of an example of two very similar cultures, handling this in such polar opposite ways, and having such wildly different results! I hope Sweden now seems to be on its way back to sanity, and understand that their "project"/ideology has failed them, and they have thankfully and finally started taking some active measures. Yet it will likely be many years or generations before they can hopefully return to the peaceful soceity they once was.
    I hope to see something similar in the Anglosphere, but it seems a strong shift in politics is needed before this will happen. So for now I can only say I wish you the best, and hope you will someday return to some sembelance of normality as well. But it will likely be a long and ardeous fight, and a need for a "re-awakened" populace that takes an active interst in their politics, and not just "vote out of habit".

So mass immigration IS a terrible idea right across the board. The WEF/UN/IMF have got it totally wrong, and their 'Agenda' will undoubtedly lead to civil-war on our streets sooner or later.

You can't speak reasonably about any modern History without finding yourself at some point in the conversation quoting Niall Ferguson. I believe he is partially correct about immigration, it is vital for a healthy and productive society, but much like eating the right foods to maintain a healthy body it is critical (and that point can not be over emphasized) that it is critical to the health and stability of a society to immigrate the right people...and this the Western nations have done a poor job of...and it will doom Europe.

That's not to say there aren't valuable contributions that Muslims can and do make, but as a whole most Muslims do not integrate well into a modern Western culture where multi-culturalism is the norm and a desired goal. Muslims are use to theocracies. In the West, theocracy is generally prohibited by laws and/or constitutions. So it is no surprise that Muslims don't meld well into Western societies.

Non-US immigration across the last forty years has very largely been deliberate relocation to exploit the chances to be better off economically while remaining nationally, culturally, linguistically and religiously original - it has not been to escape the shortcomings of a homeland, the persecution of a religion or political position which it used to be. The US has this notion of the American Dream that everyone is required to loudly subscribe to - it is the safety valve of an immature, over-confident culture that is ultimately much more successful than the laissez-faire, slightly embarrassed by colonial pasts, guilt-ridden quiet acquiescence of the rest of "The West". The US model is "come, work, be loudly American or be illegal and afraid" - and it works, the Western-European model has become the flip-flopping of social and political engineering by politicians.

    As long as you have good laws and a good law enforcement system, you should not worry what personal beliefs someone holds in their minds. The problem has never been religion per sei. Actually the real believers are the best because they are predictable and actually have a strong moral system that can be anything but harmful. What you should care about is law enforcement that tackles problems practicaly without pointing fingers at religions/ideologies that have little -to-nothing to do with the actual problems.

    Twenty years ago even to utter the word Eurabia in polite company was to label yourself as a ghastly "Far Right Racist!" Likewise to note publically that, for example, a disturbingly large percentage of girl children simply vanished overnight when they reached middle school age and their parents saw no need for further schooling for mere females, would have been an extremely unwise career move for a public educational employee whether in Manchester or Minneapolis.

    Failure to assimilate, failure to integrate,failure to explain and accept the norms and laws of that society, allegiance remains to another power . Yup, a plane or boat ride does not change who you are, got it. Here is another viewpoint if is not deleted.
    Yes, one can agree with what he stated to some degree but Neil left out that immigration is also a money making machine for many.
    Do not know if the superstructure theory is relevant here but it may apply, Neil know about that too.
    From the busy point of view , the importer which is the government not the man on the street is in charge of immigration whether legal or illegal especially with open borders generally in the West.
    John you and Neil are two smart men, do you not think the politicians past and present did not know, understand, or could not be informed about what was happened to their countries or was it deliberate??
    The Western governments, the importer saw it partly too as one would a business deal, one person one wedgit, get them out into circulation, no in our business policy we do not offer a recall or a guarantee, we just flood the market with more wedgits, rinse and repeat.
    Anyway , regardless the business model is sound because the importer has no repercussions , what loose an election, the next guy behind me has the same ideology on wedgits and the taxpayer burdens all the costs.
    If someone were to object and ask is this working out , use phobia kryptonite or something else to quiet discontent.
    Could be totally wrong on the subject, one thing though is certain, there is no going back and the politicians have to implement and enforce the ideas Neil stated if some Western countries are to survive. Thank you men.

    "The West" is not making a mistake, the immigrants are. They do not take up the offers of the host society to assimilate and indeed in some subcultures, the word "assimilation" is taboo. That is not a failure of the West. BTW I would except most Black-Africans, West Indians and many Asians out of this. These people even assimilate rather well.

      Did blacks in the US assimilate over centuries?
      Mostly no. They are an extremely problematic demographic that have their own subculture and parallel societies, their own identity and values, and are also responsible for an outrageously disproportionate amount of crime.
      Generally immigrants should be judged on a per person basis, but if you want a rule of thumb, then blacks are also generally low quality migrants.

    Ferguson and many others are confused about this "integration/assimilation" nonsense. It's not needed.
    The Amish and Mennonites refused to assimilate/integrate for decades, and are worthy immigrants.
    The problem is that some cultures, not all, seek to replicate their home culture in the host country and NOT tolerate the culture, laws and traditions of the host country. Therein lies the problem. Immigrants who are productive and abide by the laws of the host country are just fine, no integration needed.

    He says, the problem is not immigration because some immigration is good for the economy. I think the economy is the last thing to think about when it comes to immigration. If you exchange 67M French for 67M Chinese, no matter how integrated or productive they are, France ceases to exist. Americans are still obsessed with multiculturalism, but France has always applied assimilationism and we can see the results. Integration is a myth when it comes to non-European immigrants and in large numbers.

    The state must monitor the immigrant for 5 years to see if he lives actively as a Christian believer: he is regularly in prayer communities, regularly attends Holy Mass and passes several exams in Christian doctrine. The integration of immigrants as godless is meaningless

    I don't think this is right. Arguably, multiculturalism is a deliberate liberal strategy, intended to produce the type of inter-cultural societies and leaders envisaged by the founders of the United Nations. That the United Nations has become a base for Communist organization and a propagandist for causes which violate its own Charter aside, multiculturalism forces citizens to think in global, international terms if continued prosperity is desired. E.g. the meal on my table is supplied by the combined efforts of people of many cultures.
    Of course this also brings out people suffering from the megalomania implicit in exclusive monotheism, however I think that emergence is a phase in a far longer development.
    In time, all these protesting people will learn submit to God. Muslims telling the West to submit to God must also submit to God, or they're worse than the worst of religious hypocrites.
    Islam supposedly means submission, but what we're seeing is not submission at all.

    Wrong analysis.
    The “failure” he describes wasn’t a mistake.
    It was a deliberate non mandated policy to change our society by importing people who were indoctrinated in religious political ideologies.
    His premise completely misses the overriding fact that we have been wilfully destroyed by our own politicians, who take orders from non democratic organisations.
    It is far more sinister than his simple analysis.
    He needs to live in Britain again and get back in touch with the reality of the loss of democracy, with its surrender to global organisations.
