🚨The Bradford headteacher who blew the whistle on multiculturalism in the 1980’s: Ray Honeyford was the headmaster of Drummond Middle School in Bradford in the 1980’s. Ray was born into a very poor family with a father who was wounded in WW1 and often unable to work. He had 10 siblings, six of whom died in childhood. Ray went to work at 15 to support his family whilst taking evening classes to qualify as a teacher. In the mid 1980’s Drummond Middle School was 90% non-white and 95% Asian (mostly Pakistani). 1984 (an apt year!) Ray wrote an article on multiculturalism in Roger Scruton’s Salisbury Review. He noted that many children were actively encouraged to speak Urdu rather than English. He noted young girls were being forced into marriage and many children were arriving at school already exhausted after hours spent at the madrasah. And he said that parents were bringing the “politics of the subcontinent” with them and that many of the Pakistani parents viewed white Brits as the kafir who were not to be mixed with. He warned that it was resulting in “Asian ghetto’s” across Bradford and that political correctness was holding back integration and the educational prospects of ethnic minority children. He wrote the article not out of hatred, but out of a concern the children under his care were not getting a great British education. Muslim “community leaders” would pack meetings in the school and demand his resignation as did the local Pakistani Mayor of Bradford. He was suspended until his suspension was overturned in the High Court. But the parents started protesting and the children started boycotting the school. Ray even had to be given police protection. He eventually accepted a payout from the council and was forced into early retirement. He never worked as a teacher again. When Ray died in 2012 Roger Scruton wrote an obituary which said: “Readers will be grateful for the life of this exemplary, heroic and profoundly gentle man, who was prepared to pay the price of truth at a time of lies”.

I’m not sure about anyone else but I haven’t been overly impressed with the midfield for the last month or so apart from a 30min spell vs Villa it doesn’t look like we’re creating enough clear chances and not looked stable what would be your ideal midfield? #COYG 🔴⚪️
