White South Africans Head For Home

[Maritz]

After 10 years in London, the Short family packed their bags and moved back to South Africa, part of what experts say is a growing trend of white expatriates returning home.

"London was very good to us but it was never home," said Julie Short, who met her husband Wallis in the British capital, where their two young daughters were born.

The couple were among the estimated 800 000 white South Africans who moved overseas, mainly to Britain, Australia and New Zealand, between 1991 and 2001, according to census data.

The exodus amounted to about 15% of South Africa's white population. Some fled fearing the often gratuitously violent crime that erupted across the nation during the mid-1990s. Nearly 27 000 people were killed in 1995, the year after Nelson Mandela became president.

Others feared that in the new post-apartheid South Africa, they could be passed over for jobs or business opportunities as the government embarked on a programme of black economic empowerment.

But now the exodus appears to be slowing -- and even reversing.

Census figures show the white population is at 4.5-million, the highest level since 1991.

The exact numbers of South Africans abroad are hard to determine, partly because many whites living overseas hold dual citizenship and are not counted as immigrants in their new countries.

But experts say many are now returning, especially as the economies of the rich world have stumbled.

The Whites in South Africa need to stay put. It is our land. It contains the blood, bones,sweat and tears of the Boers ancestors. It belongs to the White Race by right of conquest. So many blacks are dying of Aids it will be completely White in 50 years time. The Whites there also have a healthy birth rate and are all racially aware.
It is just a question of patience. Creativity demands also the population of this earth with White people exclusively..so South Africa will in time be the springboard for a white "reconquest" in the future.


It is simply a question of the White Race getting its thinking and priorities straight. Expansion and colonisation via breeding.


I also think the idea of Uhuru or "when mandela dies, the whites will die like flies" is bogus. South Africa is so strategic in terms of metal resources everyone from China to Germany will be sending troops there under the pretence of restoring order just to get mining rights alone.
