White Birmingham pupils ‘extremist’ threat

Apr 24 2009 by John Marsden, Birmingham Post

White schoolboys from less well-off backgrounds in Birmingham are in danger of being recruited by far right groups as they grow increasingly disaffected, it has been claimed.

The warning was made following a report into underachieving children in the city which shows that ‘white disadvantaged’ pupils are performing significantly below the Birmingham average.

The head teacher of Colmers School in Rednal, Peter Jones, called on Birmingham to take a lead in tackling the issue during a meeting of Birmingham City Council’s education scrutiny committee. And Nigel Baker, deputy general secretary of the National Union of Teachers in Birmingham, warned: “Areas like yours are also breeding grounds for extremism for right wing parties.”

Council officers at the meeting acknowledged that “extremist attitudes” existed in areas such as Longbridge and Sheldon, but said there was a city-wide programme to tackle the problem.

Mr Jones said: “Low self-esteem and low aspirations are typical. A major part of our work is raising aspirations.”

just for people's information this is birmingham, england not birmingham, alabama. this has been recognized as widely happening in england and will likely become more common with the economic hardtimes.

Who's making a bad situation worse, or the perception of it worse?

Take a look at the events of the last few months and ask yourself who is doing the fearmongering. And for what reason?

Go back in history a little ways and you might find a clue.

They seem to be using the same playbooks that have been used before!

I know a partial answer.

You make people aware of what is going on, and if they disagree with it, hopefully they will speak out against it.

There's lots of smoke and mirrors being used right now, the only way you can make an informed decision is to have access to as much information as possible.

PB, seems to be a good tool for fishing out some of the crap that is going on.

And I'm suspicious anytime the media has to artificially elevate a man to celebrity/messiah status. His history and associates show a whole different picture.

I'll do my part, as minor as it will be, to expose the truth.

And if that means my credibility will be questioned, so be it.

But I think you'll find that most on PB would believe me before they would believe the narcissist in the WH.
