Western Europe will implode by 2018. A terrifying whirlwind of insecurity, political disloyalty and new-wave piracy will dismember our societies within eleven years. Waves of mass immigration from Third World disaster zones will surge over Britain's borders, reducing it to a hollow shell sacked by ‘reverse colonisation’. ‘Indigenous’ Britons will soon become minorities in a land overrun by a multitude of diaspora groups.

Future immigration will be characterised by little allegiance to host countries; the idea of assimilation will become ‘redundant’. People will reside in Britain out of convenience, expediency and necessity as regional economic crashes, natural disaster and failed city-states propel a mass exodus from the Third World to Europe. As Europe's leading destination for immigrants, Britain will be in the most perilous position.

Such is the belief of Rear Admiral Chris Parry, head of the Development, Concepts and Doctrine Centre (DCDC) at the Ministry of Defence. He already believes that is almost impossible to ‘integrate’ new immigrant groups. In a briefing speech he warned that ‘globalisation makes assimilation seem redundant 34 The Future of Multicultural Britain and old-fashioned … [the process] acts as a sort of reverse colonisation, where groups of people are self-contained, going back and forth between their countries, exploiting sophisticated networks and using instant communication on phones and the internet’. In a speech designed to outline the challenges that will shape Britain's security policies in the coming decades, Parry was unequivocal that the diaspora issue is ‘one of my biggest current concerns’.
