	Kukkia kriittisille - Multicultural Society: A Self Contradiction?
		Hence, Walpole played down the importance of race and emphasised the importance of religion when he was trying to persuade the English to accept Protestant William of Orange as their king.
		With such an intolerance of dissent, a multicultural society quickly becomes undemocratic as can be seen in the way in which people have been sacked for being BNP activists or pelted with eggs for being BNP councillors as happened in Burnley in May 2003.
		Members of this society are no longer thinking in the same way or doing the same things and, as a consequence, a weak and divided society is created.

	About the Walpole Society
		The Walpole Society was formed in 1911, and was named after Horace Walpole (1717-1797), who published the first history of art in Britain, basing his work on the manuscript notebooks of George Vertue (1684-1756), which he had acquired.
		One of the first goals of the Society was to publish the notebooks in their original form, which included much material that Walpole omitted.
		The Society's publications are indispensable to all those interested in British Art, but in order to continue its essential work, the Society needs a flourishing membership.
