PVV leader Geert Wilders: We have to reclaim our streets!

Geert Wilders is the leader of the Partij Voor de Vrijheid (PVV) (Party for Freedom) and Vice-President of the Parliament of the Netherlands. He contributed this article to Breitbart News. The emphasis in the final paragraph is Walt's.

Following a football match, rioters in Paris went on a rampage in the French capital, looting shops setting cars on fire, attacking, even firing at police officers. 

Videos and television footage showed that many rioters had an immigrant background. It is a scene Europeans have become all too familiar with – not just in France, but all over the continent. 

In the past decades, Europe’s ruling elites have allowed millions of immigrants from Africa and the Islamic world to settle in our midst. Some of them hate their host country to the extent that they want to destroy it. They loot and vandalize, assault and rape, and even murder.

Leading politicians – such as Emmanuel Macron in France, Rob Jetten in my own Netherlands, Ursula von der Leyen in Brussels, and many others in their ivory towers – think that people do not notice what is going on. But they do notice, and they are deeply worried. They want the chaos to stop. They also realize the root cause of our societal break-down: Mass immigration by people who contribute absolutely nothing to our societies and reject our cultural values. 

While our cities begin to resemble war zones, our governments continue their march of folly. In my country, the authorities want to force literally every municipality in the Netherlands to house a quota of asylum seekers. These fortune seekers, many of whom are young men, are being lodged in hotels, holiday resorts, former schools, former army barracks, even on cruise ships.

I have called on the Dutch people to resist – firmly, but always in a non-violent manner – the establishment of centres for asylum seekers in their neighbourhoods. I have recently begun a nation-wider resistance tour, visiting local communities where the authorities are planning new asylum centres.

The response has been overwhelming. The mainstream media do not report on the protests because the demonstrators are peaceful and law-abiding. It is not our people who go rampaging in the streets, ravaging their neighbourhoods! We are not conquerors like the thugs in the streets of Paris; we defend our homes. We do not destroy our communities; we love them. 

We do not loot our neighbours; we protect them. We do not harass and attack our women; we stand up for them. It all boils down to the culture of love that drives the patriots defending Europe, versus the culture of hatred that drives those eager to to destroy it.

Societies cannot exist without a shared set of moral values. Since the 1970s, governments, aided by supranational organizations such as the EU and various UN bodies, have begun to impose a doctrine of relativism and multi-culturalism, opening Europe’s doors to literally millions of foreigners who have little in common with us. As a result, Europe has slowly transformed into Eurabia. 

No one can deny that the neighbourhoods with the largest concentrations of Islamic newcomers are the most prone to violence. Mass immigration by people from cultures that have not been shaped by the basic forces of European civilization has eaten away at law and order, the foundation of our free societies.

Mass immigration has also created a new electorate for political parties. The “mainstream” parties actively search for the Islamic vote. This phenomenon has become increasingly important because the Islamic population has continuously grown, thereby becoming a power broker in elections. 

Political parties compete with each other by giving in to Islamic demands, such as an anti-Israeli foreign policy, the prosecution of so-called "Islamophobic" individuals, and the abandonment of entire neighbourhoods to Islamic gangs, which the police are instructed not to "provoke."

It is urgent that patriotic politicians organize a national wave of peaceful resistance. We demand an immediate asylum stop, encouragement of remigration, and compulsory remigration of criminal migrants. Europe is still ours. If we want to keep it that way, we have to rise up en masse. Non-violently but firmly and with determination, we have to reclaim our streets. If we do, we can still win. The time to act is now.

European elections: the rise of the Right!

"Today Europe, tomorrow the world!" Ed. vetoed that headline, which he says has been done before. Cut to the news, which is that George Soros, Francis the Talking Pope and all the other "progressive" one-worlders are soiling their silkies today following right-wing parties' near sweep of European Union Parliament elections this weekend.

The victory of the Right was nowhere as convincing than in France, where Marine Le Pen's National Rally (RN) crushed the centrist coalition of President Emmanuel Macron. Projections for the final count put them at between 14.8% and 15.2% in the European poll, less than half the 32%-33% tally booked by RN.

So upset was Mama's Boy Macron that he called -- very rashly, IMHO -- a snap election for the French parliament, to be held within the next 30 days. M Macron won re-election in 2022, and cannot stand in the next presidential elections due in the spring of 2027.

Analysts have long predicted that M Macron would face severe difficulties in parliament in the wake of a heavy defeat to RN in the European elections, potentially including censure motions and the collapse of the government. But if his coalition loses at the new polls, he will be an even lamer duck, and Mme Le Pen will have even more power. 

M Macron has presented it as an existential choice for French voters: do you really want to be governed by the "far right|? Walt predicts he will be surprised when they answer, "Mais, si!"

France wasn't the only country whose people have finally come to their senses and voted to save their Western Christian societies... if that's possible. Although right-wing and nationalist parties have made gains, centre-right parties came out top in Germany, Greece, Poland and Spain, and made significant advances in Hungary. 

In Germany, Chancellor Olaf Scholz decided against calling an election, although his three-party coalition suffered heavy losses on the weekend. The alliance between the Social Democrats, Greens and liberals was already tricky, but Russia's invasion of Ukraine meant breaking economic and energy ties with Russia and renouncing former pacifist feelings. This alienated some core supporters, created party rifts, and overall rattled voters. 

The ongoing surge in migration has also put strain on the resources of local councils. While the government has managed to boost military spending and pivot away from cheaper Russian energy, money is tight, so voters are responding to rightist parties' promises of a quick return to peace and prosperity: The conservative CDU topped the polls with impressive 30% of the vote.The right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) came second with 15.9%. That means that almost half of all German voters rejected the centre-left coalition. Herr Scholz's social democratic SPD got just 13.9% of the vote.

In Hungary, Viktor Orban’s Fidesz party won both the European and municipal elections, as expected. The even-better news for rightists is the emergence of Peter Magyar, a 43-year-old lawyer whose centre-right Tisza party replaced the old opposition. Fidesz got 44% and Tisza 30% -- that's nearly three-quarters of the vote for the Right.

Italy's Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni boosted her popularity by putting her name at the top of her Fratelli d'Italia party's ballot. The Brothers of Italy increased their share of the vote to 29%. Forza Italia, the party founded by late Silvio Berlusconi, won slightly more votes than the once-mighty League party, headed by Matteo Salvini. The centre-right coalition now looks good for at least another couple of years.

It appears that public opinion in the Netherlands hasn't changed much since November, when Geert Wilders, leader of the anti-immigration Freedom Party (PVV), won the national election. 

Although Green-Left parties secured the most seats in the European Parliament, the Freedom Party made the greatest gains, while centre-right parties had a strong showing. In a notable breakthrough the new BoerBurgerBeweging (BBB) (Farmer-Citizen Movement) won two seats, becoming the first farmers political group to succeed in challenging the greenscam orthodoxy.

In Austria, Herbert Kickl, leader of the Freedom Party (FPÖ), told a crowd of cheering supporters that his party's victory in the European elections marked "a new era in politics." The irhgtist and conservative parties garnered close to 50% of the votes cast, with the FPÖ winning 25.7%  and the People's Party 24.7%. 

The Social Democrats got 23.3%, the Greens 10.9%, the liberal Neos 10.1%. For the FPÖ, the next step will be parliamentary elections in the autumn. Neither of the past two leaders of FPÖ, Hans Christian Strache or Jörg Haider, were able to deliver first-place for their party. But now that fears of a return to Nazism have been dispelled, the party is feeling confident of victory. 

What does it all mean? In a Europe-wide elections, dominated by immigration, inflation and the breakdown of social cohesion, law and order, a wave of anti-woke, anti-liberal, anti-incumbent fever swept the field. 370 million people were eligible to vote across 27 countries, and they handed a massive payback to liberal and Green parties. Is Europe headed "back to the future"? Will the USA, or even Canada, follow? Stay tuned!

Referendum on immigration? What a novel idea!

How would you vote, dear reader, if you were allowed by your country's political elites to vote in a referendum on how many immigrants (if any) your country should "welcome"? Would you vote for Biden-style open borders? Or would you say "None is too many!"? 

But you won't get to express your opinion at the ballot box, will you? Not in the AABC countries -- America, Australia, Britain and Canada -- whose leaders pay lip service to "the will of the people", but don't want to know about it, when it conflicts with their plans for the New World Order.

If you live in France, however, you may be able to have your say next year.  Marine Le Pen, leader of the Rassemblement National (National Rally), has promised that if she is elected president in 2022, she will call a referendum proposing drastic limits on immigration.

The question will be, "Do you approve of the Citizenship Identity and Immigration bill that will present a comprehensive immigration control plan?"

Mme Le Pen told the meeja that the referendum would propose a complete draft bill that would drastically regulate immigration. Her plan would impose strict criteria for entering French territory and for acquiring French nationality. As well, French citizens would have priority access to social housing, jobs and social security benefits. "Refugees" and asylum-seekers would go to the back of the line. Imagine that!

In addition, her plan would facilitate more deportations, and require applications for asylum to be made overseas. The last point is something that has been discussed previously by the Danish government in recent months, with the Danish parliament voting for a proposal in June that could see asylum claims processed in asylum reception centres abroad.

Mme Le Pen also vowed to halt family reunification migration also known as "chain migration", which often accounts for a large number of migrants accepted every year in various countries such as Sweden where they outnumber new asylum claims. Her plan also includes the end of birthright citizenship, by which a child born of foreign parents is automatically granted citizenship for being born within the country where the mother happens to be at the time of birth.

In 2017, Mme Le Pen made it to the second round of the presidential election, but was defeated by the  "centrist" Emmanuel Macron. Little Emmanuel has not yet said whether he will stand for re-election, but opinion polls show him and Mme Le Pen as the likely two candidates to make it through to the second round, with M Macaroon seen as the eventual winner. Of course pollsters, being part of the controlled media, have been known to fudge the numbers to paint the liberal candidate as a shoo-in over the "extremist".

It must be said, though, that the situation has become complicated this month by a possible presidential run of right-wing talk-show star Eric Zemmour, who could split the far-right vote and allow a centre-right challenger to face M Macron. While he has yet to formally declare his candidacy, the conservative writer and pundit has seen a surge in popularity, according to a report from Reuters. 

A Harris Interactive poll released this week puts him ahead of Mme Le Pen in the first round of next spring's presidential election, with as high as 18% in one scenario, two points ahead of Mme Le Pen but still nine points behind the incumbent Macron. A projected second-round run-off between would put M Zemmour at 45%, to M Macron's 55%. 

But (here's the good news), a second-round vote between Mme Le Pen and M Macron, would be closer. 53% of respondents said they would vote for M Macron in that case, with 47% preferring Mme Le Pen. In today's politics in a country like France, a 6% lead is nothing. One must also allow for the phenomenon observed in the USA, where many voters were reluctant to tell pollsters their intention to vote for the "extremist".

In her presser, Mme Le Pen said that her proposals were "firm but realistic, therefore politically and legally viable and therefore enforceable." She noted that other presidential candidates and potential candidates had adopted firmer stances on immigration as well. 

"I'm not worried," she said. "I am convinced the French people will place us against Emmanuel Macron because we defend very different models of society. He stands for unregulated globalisation, I defend the nation, which remains the best structure to defend our identity, security, freedom and prosperity."

By the numbers: "In 2021, 134,000 foreigners entered the EU clandestinely, 68% more than in 2020. In the central Mediterranean, which particularly affects Italy, we see an 87% increase in landings since the beginning of the year. Arrivals from Libya and Tunisia have doubled. We have recorded 48,000 entries." Source: Fabrice Leggeri, Executive Director of Frontex, the European Union border agency. Reported by Breitbart News, 10/10/21.

VIDEO: Banned from YouTube (again!) Michael Matt talks about the increasing resistance to Great Reset and the New World Order

Yes, our old friend Michael Matt has once again spoken the truth... too much truth... on his Editor's Desk vlog. That's twice now. One more "strike" and he'll be banned from YouTube forever and ever. 

What was it this time? In the latest episode, posted on his own Remnant TV site, Mr Matt raises the question: What if the Great Reset fails to materialize before it begins to hurt the midterm reelection chances of Democrat politicians? Will they go down with Joe Biden for the sake of Bill Gates? 

In Minnesota, he says, Tim Walz, the Democratic Governor, abruptly abandoned all talk of vaccine/mask mandates this week. Why? Because he's up for re-election in 2022 and voters are tired of his Covid Show! Meanwhile, in the streets of Paris, 200,000 demonstrated against French President Macron's "Health Pass". Israel is proving that vaccines don't work. 

And north of the World's Longest Undefended Border (TM), Prime Minister (until September 21st) Just In Trudeau's campaign for re-election is in so much trouble that he's having to cancel rallies due to massive protests of his vaccine passport. See "Anti-vax protesters force Canuck PM to flee campaign rally", WWW 28/8/21. 

Mr Matt asks: Does this seem to be smooth sailing for Team Reset to you? Or is The Great Reset becoming a political albatross? Have a listen!

 

Walt urges you to bookmark Remnant TV, to be sure you get the latest news, the real news, about our fight -- yes, I'm on the team! -- against the New World Order! And don't forget the prayer to Saint Michael the Archangel, which Chicago's Cardinal Cupich has now ordered not to be said following Mass.

Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil; May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; And do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all evil spirits who wander through the world for the ruin of souls. Amen.

New poll shows Marine Le Pen would trounce leftists in 2022 election

In "Les mots prescients du Général de Gaulle" (WWW 31/3/21), Walt addressed these words to our many French readers: Est-ce que vous avez eu assez de... l'Europe? la globalisation? la diversité? l'inclusivité? la connerie?! If the answer is "Yes!" (I wrote), get up and stand with Marine Le Pen and the Rallye National!

Of course I'm not the only one saying such things. All those (and we are many) urging the people of the AABC countries and western Europe to reject globalization and multiculturalism, and vote for nationalism and the restoration of western civilization, will be happy to know that the people of France (at least) are listening, and preparing to do the right thing in 2022.

French lefties (and they are many) are soiling their pink-hued shorts today after the releast of a poll showing that in a second-round run-off of the 2022 French presidential elections, Marine Le Pen would defeat nearly all of the proposed left-wing candidates.

The poll, conducted by the polling firm Ifop, revealed that the leader of the Rallye National would soundly defeat several left-wing candidates such as far-left Jean-Luc Melenchon who would only score 40% of the vote if facing Mme Le Pen.

Europe1 reports that Environmentalist candidate Yannick Jadot would also lose to Mme Le Pen, while Anne Hidalgo, the left-wing mayor of Paris, was even -- 50-50 -- with the popular populist leader. The strongest candidate against Mme Le Pen would seem to be the centre-right (read: cuckservative) prospective candidate Xavier Bertrand, polled 59% to Mme Le Pen's 41%.

While the poll examined a variety of possible match-ups for the second round, it also revealed Marine Le Pen and incumbent Président Emmanuel Macron are most likely to advance to the second round in 2022, which means they would face each other once again in the run-off. The Ifop poll says that if the run-off were held today, Macron would beat Mme Le Pen, 55% to 45%.

As Walt sees it, French voters have a full year, yet, to recognize the threat to France and to western civilization posed by the continuation of rule by the one-world elites. Let me repeat... "Soulevez-vous! Confiance au Rallye National! Confiance à Marine Le Pen!"

"Allahu akbar!" in France: asylum-seeker kills refugee centre manager

RT.com today reports a sad but unsurprising story from France. OFPRA, the French Office for the Protection of Refugees and Stateless Persons, this week refused to give refugee status to a 38-year-old Sudanese asylum-seeker, who had been in France for over five years, since the Great "Refugee" Flood of 2015. The man, who was already known to the authorities for acts of violence and had been in prison, was angered by this unjust decision, and expressed his righteous indignation by stabbling to death the manager of a refugee centre in the city of Pau, in the Pyrénées-Atlantique département.

Inspector Clouseau, of the local gendarmerie, said the "suspect"'s motives remain "unknown". Of course the cops would say that, lest they be accused of provoking Islamophobia. It's actually a pretty reutine story, in today's France, a self-proclaimed "secular republic". I mention this because on Tuesday, France's National Assembly voted to implement tough new measures to strengthen the secular nature of state institutions and eradicate what President Emmanuel Macron calls the threat of "Islamic separatism" among the country's rapidly increasing Muslim population. The government bill to "reaffirm republican principles" passed by a comfortable majority. It tabled last December in the wake of the killing of another French public servant, Samuel Paty, a middle-school teacher who had shown cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed to his students as part of a lesson on freedom of expression. The legislation had been in the works long before that, amid a debate about how to counter the radicalization of Muslims who believe their religious ideals should take precedence over those of the Republic. The new laws have been denounced by the usual suspects, including the lamestream media on this side of the pond, as "racist", "Islamophobic", "anti-Muslim", yada yada yada. AP headlined its report "France passes anti-radicalism bill that worries Muslims". That's all ye know and all ye need to know. The bill now moves on to the French Senate, which does not have a veto over the legislation that passes the assembly, but which could propose amendments. Still, it is expected to become law later this year, just as France enters a presidential election campaign. The election won't be uhtil the spring of 2022, but Walt is ready now to open a book on it. I predict that Marion Anne Perrine "Marine" Le Pen, leader of the Rassemblement National (National Rally), will defeat M Macron, unless the forces of Soros succeed in pulling off another "Biden coup". Lifetime pct .982.

"Allahu akbar!" in Paris - second Islamic terrorist attack in three weeks

I've been concentrating on American politics and the 2020 election, so didn't get around to posting this story until today, but thought I'd better do so in case you missed it.

With the trial of the Islamic terrorists who perpetrated the massacre at the offices of the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo under way, attacks by mad Muslims have become so commonplace that it's possible to conflate them. Don't. Last week's murder of an innocent schoolteacher was the second in three weeks. Expect more.

Here's the story. On Friday, Samuel Paty, a history teacher, was killed in Conflans-Sainte-Honorine, a commune in the northwestern suburbs of Paris. He was beheaded. Decapitated. Had his head severed from his body.

The perpetrator, shot dead by police soon after the atttack, has been identified just today as Aboulakh Anzorov, an 18-year-old "refugee" from Chechnya, a part of the Russian Federation located in the North Caucasus. It should be noted that Chechnya is predominantly Muslim, and Islamic terrorism is a persistent problem for the Russians.

French authorities figure the unnamed teen was the one who did the deed because he posted on social media a photo of the victim and a text claiming responsibility. The investigating prosecutor said these were found on the suspect's phone. He also confirmed that a Twitter account under the name "Abdoulakh A" [not "Mohammed"? Ed.] belonged to the suspect. That's where a photo of the decapitated head was posted minutes after the attack, along with the message, "I have executed one of the dogs from hell who dared to put Muhammad down."

Aha! There's the motive! Police officials say M Paty's discussion with his class of caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed had led to threats. The teenager had approached pupils in the street and asked them to point out his victim, they said. The suspect had been seen at the school asking students about the teacher, and the school's headmaster had received several threatening phone calls.

According to police, the suspect's half-sister joined the Islamic State group in Syria in 2014. They didn't give her name, and apparently don't know where she is now. However, in the classic French ploy of rounding up the usual suspects (see Casablanca), the anti-terrorism prosecutors have now arrested nine suspects, including the teen's grandfather, parents and 17-year-old brother.

French President Emmanual Macron is usually painfully politically correct about these things, so I'll give him full marks this time for denouncing, while visiting the school Friday night, what he called an "Islamist terrorist attack." He urged the nation to stand united against extremism. 

Said M Le Président, "One of our compatriots was murdered today because he taught...the freedom of expression, the freedom to believe or not believe." 

Walt's thought for the day: Standing up for freedom of expression seems like a good idea to me. Of course no-one in North America is going to be beheaded for doing so... right? Not by Muslims, anyway. See "Conservatives staging free speech rally attacked by critics" (read: Antifa), APNews, 18/10/20.

Telling the truth about mass migration is "hateful conduct", sez Twitter

Let's start with a report on CBC News of a speech made recently by Emmanuel Macron, the tiny perfect leftist President of France, about the problem of Islamic terrorism in his country.

The chief surrender-monkey blames it all on the failure of the French people to welcome and accommodate the millions of Muslims who have flooded into his country to take advantage of the French spirit of Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité. 

M Macron gave his speech during the first major terrorism trial in Paris after the attacks against the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo and a Jewish grocery store in January 2015, the co-ordinated killings in cafés and the Bataclan theatre in November 2015, and finally the truck assault in Nice on Bastille Day of 2016. 

The combined death toll from these Islamic terrorist attacks (I'm saying it again lest we forget) was more than 230. Most of the attackers were French-born, but all saw themselves as Islamist jihadis. What will France do with them? Send them to the shitholes of the Middle East and North Africa from which they came? Errr, no. Too late for that.

The Muslims are there now, there to stay. What to do with the 1000s of Islamic extremists now entitled to remain in Europe forever is a real problem for France -- but not just France. "Mass migration absolutely destroyed Europe. Italy, France, Sweden and Germany took in tons of migrants who never assimilated. Rapes, murders, and other heinous crimes abound."

That's not Walt speaking, although I agree. Those are the words of Lauren Witzke, the Republican candidate contesting one of the Senate seats in Delaware. Ms Witzke went on to say "I will end ALL immigration into the US for ten years." For this sin against political correctness, Twitter locked her account! Messages like that, the social media giant says, are "hateful conduct". Well, at least they didn't call it "hate crime". Not yet, anyway.

Twitter went on to warn warning the Senate candidate that repeated violations would result in the termination of her access to the platform. In a comment to Breitbart News, Ms Witzke promised swift action on the issue of tech censorship if elected to the Senate. Said the Senate hopeful, "This is yet another example of Twitter, which is partially owned by a Saudi Arabian prince, interfering in American elections."

Sez Walt, good on yer, Lauren! If I lived in Delaware, you'd have my vote!

Note from Ed.: Am I the only one to notice a strong resemblance between Lauren Witzke and People's Party of Canada star Laura-Lynn Tyler Thompson? How come the lefties can't get good-looking women like this to run for them? Am I being sexist to point this out?

Marine Le Pen calls EU "failure", recommends "Frexit"

Regular readers will know that I have lots and lots of time for Marine Le Pen, the president of the French Rassemblement National (= National Rally), a power in French politics for over a decade, resisting globalism and promoting the growing movement to make France France again.

Madame Le Pen weighed in yesterday on Brexit -- the official withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union -- which finally took place on January 31st, at the stroke of midnight, western European time, in accordance with documents previously signed by both parties. In a Tweet, Mme Le Pen called the British exit from the EU the beginning of the collapse of the European Union and the formation of independent European states.

Mme Le Pen wrote (translated), "Brexit Day should mark the beginning of the construction of the European Alliance of Independent Nations, which we wish for." She believes the vast majority of Europeans want independence from the EU, which she predicted will go down in history as an "epic failure."

Inspired by British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's success in "getting Brexit done", Mme Le Pen vowed to return France to "common sense". Millions of Frenchmen and women wish her well.

Can Muslims integrate into western societies? The French say NON!

"Face à l'islam, les Français s'inquiètent" - That's the unsurprising headline on a report in Le Journal du Dimanche (= Sunday Journal) on a recent survey conducted by pollsters IFOP (French Institute of Public Opinions). It means "Confronted by Islam, the French are getting worried." No kidding!

The IFOP poll showed that 61% of French people think that Islamism is "incompatible with the values of French society." That's a rise of 8% over the number who thought that when asked in 2018. The polling firm was investigating the "worrying" rise and influence of Islamism in France, and its manifestations in many aspects of public life, particularly in the public display of such symbols of Islam as the wearing of the niqab (veil) and burqa (complete head-to-toe body covering). (If you're not sure of the difference, click here for Walt's explanation.)

Another manifestation of the Islamization of France (and all of western Europe) is the increasing number of schools where Islam, including the law of Sharia, is taught. According to the IFOP survey, 80% of pensioners, 69% of workers, 70% of employers, and even 55% of left-wing voters expressed concern about this. According to another IFOP survey, nearly half (46%) of foreign-born Muslim immigrants want France to replace its legal system with Sharia law. That point of view is supported by 18% of Islamists born in France.

On this and other questions on the accommodation of Muslims, the poll noted a strong difference of opinion between between left and right. About 55% of the supporters of the leftist group France Insumisa and the Socialist Party defended Muslim worship, while 85% of the supporters of Marine Le Pen's National Rally agreed with the statement that "Islamism is incompatible with the values of French society."

The survey results add to those compiled last month by international global consulting firm IPSOS, which revealed that 60% of French people saw as a threat the already massive but still growing number of immigrants arriving as a result of President Emmanuel Macron's open border policy. "More than one in two French (60%) see migrants as a threat," the survey data said, and 65% "think that welcoming them will not improve the country's situation. 45% of French people think that "the arrival of migrants deprives French people of social services," it added, noting that "the idea that French people should be given priority in the allocation of jobs has increased in France over the past three years."

The people of France seem pretty clued in about the threat to their society posed by the influx of alien immigrants and "refugees". The people of Québec have also figured it out. See "Québec to require immigrant wannabes to pass values test", WWW 31/10/19. Whether the realization comes too late to keep the Muslim tails from wagging the French and Québécois dogs doesn't bear thinking about. President Trump has moved to stop or at least limit Muslim immigration. Canada's Islamophile Prime Minister? Hah!

Macron calls out army to quell Yellow Vests demonstration

Walt is watching the French (and other European media) this weekend for news of what could be a bloody clash between the French army and "yellow vests" ("gilet jaunes") protesters on the Champs-Élysées, expected in a couple of hours, at sundown. Wussy French President Emmanuel Macron has issued a directive banning protests from the most famous main street in the world, but just in case the yellow vests ignore it, he has ordered soldiers to be deployed. Some reports indicate they are being told to avoid protesters, while others indicate they have been given permission to open fire.

The soldiers have reportedly been redeployed from anti-terror Operation Sentinel duties, and are expected to be placed around government buildings and other sensitive areas, but communication about their exact role has been poor, according to Le Point. The military deployment, which follows renewed violence last Saturday, has been slammed by many, including Les Republicains senator Bruno Retailleau, who labelled it a "fatal decision".

We shall see. Meanwhile, click here to find out "What the 'Yellow Vests' want for France" (WWW 10/12/18.) It may be good for us too!

VIDEO: Populism marches on! Today, Spain! Where next?

For months now, Walt has been reporting on the rise of parties of the "populist right". (There are so many terms in use now -- conservative, neo-conservative, libertarian, right-wing, alt-right etc -- that I'm trying for one phrase which encompasses all the groups and movements whose goal is to overturn the socialistic, politically correct, one-world orthodoxy of the liberal elites, so "populist right" it shall be, at least here on WWW.

Spurred on by the success of the Brexit referendum and the election of President Donald Trump -- still going strong half-way through his first term -- parties that represent the real people who have been the silent majority in Europe and North America have won several sub-national and national elections, and are poised to take power soon in such bastions of liberalism as Germany (Goodbye, Angela Merkel!) and Canada (Good riddance, Justin Trudeau!)

Which brings us to Spain. [What?! Ed.] Yes, you heard right, friends. It wasn't so long ago that Deutsche Welle, the official German broadcaster, featured a story headed "Spain proves sterile ground for far-right parties". I love it when analyses such as that come back to bite the writer in the bum, and that's what happened in the Spanish province of Andalusia this weekend, when the populist right Vox party made huge gains in the provincial election.

In a result which the same Deutsche Welle says "has shaken Spain's political foundations", Vox won 12 seats (out of 109) in the elections, marking the first time they've made it into a Spanish parliament.



Political scientist Eduard Güell, the "unbiased" political scientist quoted by DW, says the fact that it happened in Andalusia, which has been ruled by a social democratic party since 1982, was all the more surprising.Until now, it seemed that Spain was somehow immune to the electoral rise of the populist right, like Germany's Alternative für Deutschland, Italy's League and many others. See "People's Parties on the rise. Are you in?", WWW 21/9/18

Why did Vox win bigly? An anonymous voter told Deutsche Welle's reporter, "[Vox] are the ones who have prioritized the defence of our homeland." Right! Defence of the homeland. Defence against what or who? The foreign invaders, possibly? [What? Who? Ed.] Do I have to name them? In the video you'll hear them called "migrants". What is meant is... wait for it... Muslim "refugees" and asylum-seekers. See "Saint James Matamoros, Spain needs you again!", WWW 29/7/18. Includes video on how Saint James the Great came to be called "Matamoros".

What does this mean for the future of Spain, and of Europe? Prof Güell concedes that most polls predict that Vox will make similar gains at the national level. "All signs indicate that Vox has come to stay," told DW. In his opinion, "one cannot understand how the far right has erupted in Spain without understanding the European and international perspective and how these populist far-right parties communicate and feed off each other."

Why so? Because -- this is Walt talking now -- border security and keeping out those who would replace our culture and way of life with their alien laws and ideology is the chief concern of the majority of "real people" in every country of Europe and North America! It is no surprise to me that the populist right is on the rise. The only question is whether we, the people, will rise up soon enough and strong enough to save our civilization.

Walt's answer to the question, noting that Marine Le Pen's Front National stands at 24% in French polls, compared with 17% for Emperor Macron's party, and that Matteo Salvini is far and away the most popular politician in Italy, is YES! `tis a consummation devoutly to be wished.

What the "Yellow Vests" want for France - good for us too?

Walt is waiting for reports from the City of Light [Light Brown? Ed.] as to what Emmanuel Macron, the Emperor [I warned you last time! Ed.] sorry, President of France, had to say to the nation in response to the fourth straight weekend of protests by the gilets jaunes (= Yellow Vests). See "'Yellow vest' protests spread to Belgium, Netherlands... even Canada!", WWW 8/12/18.

Without foreknowledge of the contents of his TV address, I am prepared to bet that he did not offer to resign. (Lifetime pct .990.) He would be no more inclined to do so than would have Louis XVI. We can only hope that he will meet the same fate. Off with his head! (I'm speaking figuratively, of course.) As for the grievance which sparked the demonstrations cum riots -- a threatened hike in taxes on gasoline and other fuel -- the Chief Surrender-Monkey has already caved on that one. The tax increase has now been "suspended until further notice".

Walt is also prepared to bet that whatever M Macron said he would do (or not do) in response to the protests will not be enough to satisfy the yellow vests. I know this because some person(s) purporting to speak for the yellow vests today issued a manifesto listing no fewer than 25 principles or reforms which they demand the government act on immediately for the good of the country. Here they are.

Yes, yes... I know that's not easy to read. I suggest saving it, then using the magnifier (the icon of the little magnifying glass) in your viewer to blow up [careful. Ed.] the image and focus on whatever parts of the manifesto you want to study. I also know that most of our readers don't speak French, so here's a summary of the points which are of most interest to me.

Part I - Economy/Work - A lot of unrealistic, quasi-socialist stuff here

1. Taxes to be capped constitutionally at no more than 25%
4. Massive construction projects to house 5 million homeless
5. Break up the "too-big-to-fail" banks and separate regular banking from investment banking. Wait till (((Goldman Sachs))) reads that one!

Part II - Politics - This is where the best stuff is -- much food for thought in the AABC countries as well as France

7. Rewrite the constitution to protect the interests of the people, including binding referenda to give the people control of government
8. Prohibit lobby groups and (((vested interests))) from political decision-making. That would include things like PACs
11. Immediate cessation of privatization, and the renationalization of public assets. Statists, these people, not much in favour of private enterprise. Bring back Air France?
13. Take ideology out of education and end "destructive education techniques". Walt's friends at PAFE will like this one.
14. Quadruple the budget for law and order. Put time-limits on judicial procedures. Make the justice system accessible to all.
15. Break up media monopolies and end their interference in politics. Make media accessible to citizens and guarantee a plurality of opinions. End editorial propaganda. Gotta love-love-love this one, as well as the next one...
16. Guarantee citizens' liberty by prohibiting completely any interference by the state in private citizens' decisions concerning education, health and family matters.

Part III - Health/Environment - This is for the eco-weenies, except, oddly for...

21. Reindustrialize France, thereby reducing imports and thus pollution. More thought needed here.

Part IV - Foreign Affairs - The one-worlders have it wrong. And President Trump won't like this either.

22. Get out of NATO, and end France's participation in foreign wars of aggression. As Walt has been saying for years, we have no dog in Middle East fight.
23. Cease pillaging and interfering, politically and militarily, in "Francafrique". Immediately repatriate all French soldiers. "Francafrique" includes places like Mali where not just the French but Canadians and other NATO troops are busy keeping the non-existent peace; see point 22.
24. "Hinder" the influx of migrants who cannot be accommodated or integrated. The majority of Americans, Australians, Brits and Canadians would surely agree with the majority of Frenchmen on that one!

The Yellow Vest Manifesto -- especially Parts II and IV -- seems to me like a good basis for a libertarian-populist election platform. There isn't one country in Europe or North America where the ideas expressed wouldn't find substantial support. I have just received from Agent 3 the platform of the newly-formed People's Party of Canada, and will be going through it line by line to see how it aligns with the Manifesto. Good luck to the PPC, and to the Yellow Vests! I'm with you!

French ambassador to Hungary speaks truth about Orbán, Muslims, risks firing

According to the BFMTV website, Emmanuel Macron, the diminutive president of the French Republic, has his hair on fire over a confidential note from Eric Fournier, the French ambassador to Hungary, which has mysteriously been leaked to the meeja. In a memo to the Élysée Palace (where M Macron lives with his motherly spouse), M Fournier praised the migrant policies of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, calling him a "model for Europe".

M Fournier described the Hungarian migration policy as "having anticipated the problems posed by illegal migratory movements", and excoriated "Anglo-Saxon and French media", saying, "Any democratically elected regime that does not correspond to their worldview [is called] 'populist'." That, of course, is the latest term of opprobrium used to describe the policies of leaders like Donald Trump and Doug Ford. Why? Because, to the surprise of the gliberals, "populist" policies have proven themselves popular!

In the note, which was copied to top officials of the European Union, Ambassador Fournier condemned what he called the "Magyarphobie" [Hungarian-phobia] of many western European politicians. And he defended the Hungarian government against allegations of anti-Semitism, saying that the "true modern anti-Semitism" belongs to "Muslims of France and Germany."

When the French broadcaster approached Président Macron for comment on the leaked note, he slammed his ambassador, saying, "In no way do I share the words that you just mentioned and that you have revealed." He added that if such comments had been made in public the situation would be very different. "Cet ambassadeur aurait-il tenu publiquement ces propos," he said, "il aurait été révoqué sur le champ." Translated, he meant that M Fournier would have found himself back in Paris, up to his neck in what the French call dou-dou.

UPDATED: "Allahu akbar!" Islamic hostage-taking in France

Up at the crack of dawn. Normally I seal up the crack and go back to bed. This morning, however, there's a breaking story from France which I want to put up, to remind you, dear reader, that just because the Islamic terrorists have been more active, lately, at home in Armpitistan, doesn't mean that there's no longer any threat to Europe or America.

From the south of France -- a small town called Trebes, south of Toulouse -- comes news of a hostage-taking (in progress as I write) which Prime Minister Edouard Philippe says "seems to be a terrorist act." In accordance with the political correctness which is now de rigueur throughout western Europe, he did not use the words "Islamic" or "Muslim", but we all know who he's talking about, n'est-ca pas.

Seems someone -- possibly a militant Muslim -- shot a cop and then holded up inside a Super-U supermarket. A spokesthingy for the Interior Ministry, which controls the gendarmerie and other security forces, told AP there is one suspect and police are trying to subdue him. He provided no details of how many people were inside the supermarket or were believed held hostage. There are unconfirmed media reports that the assailant claimed connections to ISIS. Quelle surprise!

The French prime minister has described the situation as "very serious," and President Emmanuel Macron has asked Interior Minister Gerard Collomb to go to the scene. The Paris prosecutor's office said counterterrorism investigators have taken over the probe into the ongoing incident, but didn't provide details on why. They didn't have to. "Allahu akbar!"

UPDATED AT 0600: Inspector Clouseau now says two people have been killed and about a dozen others wounded. He then the pronounced the ritualistic words that "the motive for the hostage-taking is unclear."

UPDATED AT 1400: The  death toll in the Islamic terrorist attack now stands at 3. Make that 4 if you add in the Muslim extremist attacker, now identified as Redouane Lakdim, 26, a native of Morocco. He was shot dead (and a good thing, too) when police stormed the supermarket in which he had holed up. Police now say that they had been watching M Lakdim, who was suspected of having been "radicalized". Turns out they just weren't watching him closely enough.

Footnote: In the first paragraph I mentioned that the Islamic terrorists had been more active of late at home in Armpitistan. The mojo wire just now spat out news of a car bombing outside a sports stadium in Afghanistan's Helmand province. 14 people were killed and 45 wounded. The office of Afghan president Ashraf Ghani issued a statement condemning the "brutal terrorist attack."

Another footnote: These attacks occurred just days after Pope Francis declared that there is no connection between Islam and terrorism. Scroll down to Walt's post earlier this week. The Pope, of course, does not live anywhere near southern France, let alone Afraghanistan.

Political victory for Marine Le Pen: French deport migrants FAST

Marine Le Pen lost France's presidential election last year, but is now justified in claiming a moral victory as centrist (read: not quite socialist) President Emmanuel Macron adopts exactly the kind anti-migrant policies and tactics she advocated. The difference is nobody calls M Macron a racist or Islamophobe. They say only that he's being practical about cleaning the garbage off the streets of Paris.

While mouthing the usual liberal platitudes about brotherhood and diversity -- "Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité" and all that -- the French President has made clear he doesn't want economic migrants in France. As for the "refugees" and asylum-seekers, M Macron wants those who don't qualify for expelled, and quickly too!

M Macron has promised the French people, who are more than fed up with having to thread their way through hordes of bogus refugees -- mostly brown or black, mostly Muslim -- thronging the streets of the City of Light, that he will get migrants off France's streets and out of forest hideouts by the end of this year. With four days left, it's a safe bet that won't happen (lifetime pct .989) but the authorities are ramping up expulsions and allowing ID checks in emergency shelters. Can you imagine that happening in New York or Los Angeles or Toronto?!

The French president doesn't even want migrants to try to come to his country. He has been rolling out a multi-pronged approach that stretches to Africa (where most of the bogus claimants come from), with points set up in Chad and Niger to weed out potential economic migrants and preselect those certain of gaining asylum. Back at home, Interior Minister Gerard Collomb has ordered prefects to crack down on illegal immigration, "act quickly" to expel those who fail to gain asylum and report results within weeks.

That was in November. This month M Collomb went even farther, ordering regional authorities to set up mobile teams to run checks in emergency housing to ascertain the status of migrants. Emergency shelters are considered bedrocks of the French tradition of open arms to those in need and have been considered untouchable, even by security authorities, much like American "sanctuary cities".

Critics contend that Macron's increasingly tough policy on migrants contradicts his image as a humanist who defeated an anti-immigrant populist (Mme Le Pen) for the presidency, and has crossed a line passed by no other president in the land that prides itself as the cradle of human rights. And what does the leader of the Front National say? Probably the French equivalent of "I told you so."

Footnote: A learned professor at a French university tut-tutted that President Macron's policy was the toughest seen since World War II, and was really inconsistent with French respect for human rights, yada yada yada. He may have forgotten that just after WWII (before Mme Le Pen was born), the greatest French president of all time, Charles de Gaulle, warned that measures such as those now being employed would be necessary to keep France France!
