The groups of mostly working-class white men who came out in force in Enfield and Eltham [during recent U.K. riots] immediately got up the noses of the liberal media, who cannot see a white crowd together without suspecting incipient fascism. . . .The least indication of white concern. A whisper of a reaction to having multiculturalism jammed down their throats.

The truth is dawning on the people of Britain that these riots were the product not of a strong, dynamic society, but an intensely fragile, deeply anxious one. In Woolwich, as in other inner-city districts, the damage has been done. There is no quick or easy way to make good the effects of 40 years of folly. The fear that was palpable on the streets of London this summer is here to stay.
Fascism!
This concludes this dispatch from the front line in the culture war.
