The Courage of Ben Habib, The Truth of Demographic Change, and How to Reverse It

Reform UK’s deputy co-leader, Benyamin Habib, has resigned from the party and posted this YouTube video explaining why. A video I feel all British nationalists and right-wingers should watch.

Before we delve into the content I want to provide some information on Mr. Habib. Ben Habib was born in Pakistan to a Punjabi father and a native British mother. Habib lived the first 14 years of his life in Pakistan before returning to his maternal homeland in the United Kingdom in 1979 where he finished his secondary and tertiary schooling (at Rugby School and Cambridge) before going on to found a property development firm that has made him incredibly wealthy.

Returning to the video at hand: the first six and a half minutes of the video are rather dull and cover the constitutional and structural issues of Reform UK and frankly I am not interested in the democratic nature or lack thereof within the party. It is the six minute and 50 second mark [Click here to go directly to 6:50] where Mr. Habib really catches my interest. Ben Habib lambasts Nigel Farage for a recent interview Farage gave during which Mr. Farage said that he was not concerned about the rapid demographic change in the United Kingdom and was only concerned about a lack of cultural cohesion.

Habib points out that rapid demographic change is the “same side of the same coin” as cultural changes and difficulties.

It Is here I feel compelled to mention that I watched the interview in question—where Nigel Farage was grilled by Steven Edginton of the conservative GB News. Edginton directly asked Farage about the decline of the white (native) British and our declining demographics. Farage did indeed say he was not concerned about it and instead we needed to work on culturally integrating the Muslim population that would in 30 years be nearing majority status.

Mr. Habib points out the difference between demographic change and cultural change is not merely semantic. Instead that it is fundamental to point out that demographic change, that is the decline of the native British population in our own ancestral homeland, is the pressing issue of the day when it comes to immigration and the country.

After making this point, Habib moves on to Farage’s claim that mass deportations are simply not viable or possible logistically and therefore he (Nigel Farage) does not support the idea of mass deportations. Ben Habib promotes the idea that logistical issues must be overcome because mass deportations of illegal immigrants is the only way to repel further illegal immigration. He calls for deportations to begin and keep on going “until it is done” regardless of the timescale that it takes to remove these people from the country.

He is correct in all these things. The United Kingdom is a country with a 3.6 trillion US dollar economy, the 6^th largest in the world. We have one of the busiest airports in the world and countless overseas territories where we could hold deportees until their countries of origin or other states agree to take them. Farage’s reluctance to back mass deportations is, in my humble opinion, based entirely on the fact he doesn’t want media headlines on BBC and ITV saying he supports mass deportations. It’s ridiculous.

It's very clear that Mr. Habib’s understanding of cultural issues in the United Kingdom goes beyond immigration related demographic change as well. On a recent episode of the Lotus Eater’s podcast Habib went after the UK government, military, and private sector for requiring that racial preferences have been established in such a way as to discriminate against the White (native) British majority in the country. He was entirely correct in saying that discriminating against native Britons has begun to abolish the meritocratic virtues and values that made this country and Western civilization the most successful civilization in history. Ben Habib would later go on to repeat his earlier statements about the rapid demographic change undermining British culture and weakening the country. His positions on multiculturalism being a serious detriment are spot on and his calls for British pride in our history, our former empire, and what our future could be are fantastic.

From legal immigration to illegal immigration and the danger posed to the native British by unintegrated communities of dangerous men, Ben Habib has what most of us would consider nationalist talking points solidly on his side.

It is from here that I must encourage Mr. Habib to begin promoting the four major repatriation/remigration based policies that White Papers has researched to turn around the tide of the Great Replacement in the United Kingdom. I have updated some of the figures with the latest migration data:

1. Stop Issuing and Renewing Visas:

In 2020 the Westminster government stopped issuing visas due to the COVID-19 pandemic by closing all of its biometric processing centres both domestically and abroad. By simply shutting down the immigration processing bureaucracy all “refugees”, non-citizen criminals and those “liable for deportation” could also have their indefinite leave (ILR) to remain revoked by the Home Office. This population of non-citizen non-Brits who would have their visas cancelled and ILR statuses revoked would number some 4.4 million non-Western people, roughly 400,000 of whom would be children under the age of 18.

A further 2 million children in the UK are children of parents who were both born abroad. Roughly 1 million of these children have two non-Western foreign-born parents, would therefore be required to leave the country with their parents. Not all these children would necessarily leave in this first step, as many will have a parent or parents who have become UK citizens through legal and honest means.

We could simply wait until the visas for these individuals expired, giving us time to train and hire British replacements for some crucial processionals, and then send these individuals back to their home countries with their pockets full of their UK earnings and their happy memories. The British people do not need to be unkind in our effort to reclaim our ancestral homeland.

2. Enforce Immediate Deportation for Foreign Criminals:

More than 1.6 million ethnic minority residents of the United Kingdom have been convicted of a crime and a great many of them either hold or are eligible for a foreign passport.

Some 50% of Asians and 40% of Blacks in the United Kingdom hold or qualify for citizenship of their ethnic homeland. Were this to seriously implement a policy of deporting and denaturalizing these individuals it would result in the deportation of upwards of 720,000 ethnic minority criminals from the United Kingdom, and this is a likely underestimate.

There are also family members of these foreign criminals to consider. The average ethnic minority individual in the United Kingdom is part of a home with 2.3 residents. This indicates that more than a million spouses, dependents, and children might also depart the United Kingdom with their denaturalized criminal family members.

The power to denaturalize these criminals already exists in British law and is a power in the gift of the Home Secretary.

3. Investigate Citizenship Fraud:

Reports published by our own government and parliament have found widespread and known immigration fraud takes place through sham marriages, false paternity and pregnancy scams, fake family scams, and false educational attainment scams. Marriage scams alone are likely to have led to the undue naturalization of more than 320,000 people since 1991 while the other forms of scams have led to tens and perhaps hundreds of thousands more individuals attaining British citizenship unjustly.

These cases must be investigated even if it is time and resource intensive so that those who broke the law are not able to live the rest of their lives in the luxury of British society.

4. Finally, there is the Employer Immigration Tax:

This idea was originally presented in the Reform UK manifesto reviewed here at White Papers some months ago just before the general election here in the UK. The basic idea is to raise the national insurance rate to 20% for foreign workers and therefore massively increase the cost of employing non-British individuals in the private sector and NHS. Reform UK estimates that the scheme could raise £20 billion over the course of five years and that it should be used to fund apprenticeships and skills retain for Brits. This is a fantastic idea.

More crucially though, the White Papers piece pointed out that this policy would make unemployable roughly 1.2 million non-British non-Western immigrants currently occupying the UK labor market.

All together these policies could result in the deportation of between 5.3 and 7 million people from the United Kingdom. This would increase the native British share of the population from a dismal 76.8% today to 85.8%. These policies could result in the undoing of nearly 20 years of demographic damage to the country.

Most crucially, though, many of those ethnic minorities left in the UK would be individuals like Suella Braverman, a woman who was born in the UK to two Indian immigrant parents in the 1970s. Like Habib, Ms. Suella Braverman is wildly patriotic, deeply concerned about demographic change, and understands that anti-White hatred is tearing the United Kingdom apart. We could live, rather happily, alongside these heavily integrated ethnic minorities in a United Kingdom where the native British majority is growing stronger rather than weaker.
