Wales is showing just how dangerous it can be to challenge the establishment, writes Joe Martin MS

Unfortunately, it prompted me to talk about White Britons becoming a minority in Great Britain.

I say unfortunately because it is a very difficult topic to talk about.

I usually get very nervous when I must talk about controversial things in the Senedd (the Welsh Parliament) and I had a feeling it would generate hysteria from Plaid Cymru, which is the governing party of Wales.

Nevertheless, if something is important and true, you should say it.

So, I did. I asked the Government for a statement on White British people becoming a minority nationwide by 2063, according to Buckingham University.

Immediately, they appealed to the Senedd’s presiding officer, intending to have me banned from speaking in the chamber. That request was upheld.

They have silenced an elected representative of the people of Wales because they do not like what I have to say.

Truthful speech is what underpins all of that which is good and valuable in our civilisation.

In some real sense, whoever can tell the most difficult truth “wins” in life and certainly in politics.

Different parties will tell different difficult truths about different topics depending on what is important to their members and indeed will compete to do so to win the votes of the electorate.

The conversations necessary to constantly refresh and revitalise our democracy will necessarily push the limits of free expression by their very nature: if they were easy conversations, they would not be worth having.

Indeed, if you think I am wrong, or ignorant, or evil, you should want me to speak more, not less.

That way, I could discredit myself and my party with my contributions. By silencing me, you prove the opposite: you fear what I have to say.

So, I state again: we must not let White British people become a minority in our own country.

People of any race are more than welcome, but they will need a stable and culturally coherent society to assimilate into.

If I wanted to move to China, it would be on the assumption that I was going to live amongst the Chinese or those who have so thoroughly assimilated into their way of life that they might as well have lived there for 1,000 years.

The alternative is a process of Balkanisation into parallel communities and indeed in Britain that process has already started.

Establishment politicians, Labour and Tory alike, have wilfully imported millions of people, many of whom will not be able to contribute or assimilate.

They must leave.

Millions of people of all races in Britain agree and a parliament in which I am unable to represent their interests is no real parliament at all.

The Senedd will decide its own fate: uphold freedom of speech or consign itself to tyranny, illegitimacy and irrelevance.
