In local elections across England and Wales last night, more than 100 Conservative Party councillors lost their seats, as the surging UK Independence Party took an amazing 26% of the vote. As the results still roll in, there is a chance that the UKIP will out-perform Labour while at the same time dealing the "new look" Tories under its liberal leader Cameron a sharp check. The far-left Liberal Democrats were nearly wiped out.
The meteoric rise of the UKIP leaves only the non-European nations of the Anglosphere--Canada, New Zealand, Australia and the United States--as Western states without a viable and popular opposition party against the elite's globalist, mass-immigration welfare state politics.
France, long derided as "surrender monkeys" by the laughably toothless American conservative movement has the National Front, and has been home to hundreds of massive protests against the state recognizing gay marriage.
The Social Democrats of the Scandanavian countries have lost the power they held for over 70 years, out in Sweden, out in Norway, out in Finland and definitely out in Denmark.
The Freedom Party of Wilders is a force in Dutch politics.
Strong nationalist parties not only compete in Italy, but run ministries.
So much for "dead Europe." But, then again, the Wall St Journal and the uber-Catholic, and, thus, pro-massive Latino immigration National Review, were never really viable right-wing leaders.
Where is the American resistance?
How long must we wait?

Europe is revolting against an EU led elitist oligarchy in favor of Nationalist elitist oligarchies.
ReplyDeleteThe economic program of the Southern European Nationalists is pretty much let us just Print. Money. Now.
Which is fine, until you realize that a bunch of central banks will end up owning everything. And who do the central bankers work for? ProTip™: It ain't "the people".
Of course their alternative is to be liquidated and acquiesce to a German Europe. So, no good choices there.
Basically the banker/corporatist/statist triumvirate in each country runs everything anyway, and the problem faced by the EU now is that there is a big cultural rift over how each region prefers to be ripped off:
- the Northern / Germanic people prefer to see their wages go down - stagnation served "straight up", please.
- the Southern / Latin people prefer to see their prices inflate and their currency become worthless.
They fight over this like it means something. LOL.
At the end of the day Nigel Farage could move into No 10 throw down at question time like a boss but the Greater British Joint will still be owned by the Square Mile, because Britain is exactly what Iceland was and what Cypress was: a highly leveraged sovereign hedge fund with a balance sheet many, many times GDP (kinda like how the Soviets and the US could blow each other up many, many times over). "Too Big To Fail" with strategic overkill.
Looking hard for hopeful signs. Not seeing any yet. The people in charge will front run, co-opt, and ultimately undermine any trending meme in the electorate - and that includes immigration. Europe will have it's Mark Rubio's; we sure have ours...
Crap two erroneous apostrophes in my final sentence. Shamefaced. Please consider both elided.
