The words spoken by David Cameron last Saturday at the security conference in Monaco are arousing fierce controversy in Britain. Echoing what he said few months ago, Angela Merkel, and ideally by referring to the speech given in 2005 by Tony Blair in the aftermath of the attacks on the London Underground, Cameron said that "multiculturalism has failed", citing the end of what we call an attitude of "feel-good" against all the manifestations of Islamic extremism, as it would have planted roots in the Western democracies.
While the prime minister with his words marked a milestone in the ideological construction of the new European right, in Luton, England, the Defence League Inglese grandemanifestazione held the most anti-Islamic history of the country, provoking outrage among anti-racist movements and moderate Muslims.
The unfortunate timing of two events has led the Labour Tariq Khan, of Pakistani origin and political right hand man Ed Miliband, accusing the premier of fomenting racism. Even within the ruling coalition, the Lib Dems Nick Clegg, a supporter during the election campaign of a pro-immigrant amnesty, and Baroness Warsi, Indian and Muslim, conservative leader in the House of Lords, does not seem to have appreciated.
The arguments of the leading conservative elements at stake are too complex to be cleared by the arguments of political skirmishing, although the Labour Party could not avoid using. Compliance with the laws of the country by the first or second generation immigrants is certainly not questioned, even the left of this "feel-good" should take note.
However, the attack on extremist groups, which are not lacking, and the exaltation of Britishness as the value of national unity, report in the weakness of political reality facing the challenge of integration, the same that led to the right since its birth policy or the former Gaullist Sarkozy, recently, Angela Merkel.
If racism is not advancing because "multiculturalism has failed," as erroneously claimed the British prime minister, but because it never really achieved. E 'in the margins economic, social and political reasons for the resurgence of the nest radicals, which then generate, conversely, positions Islamophobic.
Cameron poses as a statesman, but it may take a way out: integrated into the moderate conservatism's deepest instincts, not infrequently racist, that his country is called middle Britain.
