The EU issued nearly half a million tourist visas to Russians in 2025.

Not to dissidents. Not to refugees. Tourist visas. For holidays. The highest number since Putin sent his army into Ukraine, up 10% on the year. France, proud, principled, morally unimpeachable France, raised its Russian approvals by 23% in a single year.

When the numbers got awkward, the EU did what the EU does. It deleted them. Russian visa statistics quietly vanished from the official Schengen tracker in early 2026. Eight countries had to formally demand they be put back.

They hid the data. Not the policy. The data.

Ten countries, the Nordics, the Baltics, and the Netherlands among them, had to write an actual letter to get this onto a ministers’ meeting agenda. The remaining seventeen apparently saw nothing strange about any of this.

No law is coming before summer. Because before any law can exist, there must first be a proposal. Before the proposal, a consultation. Before the consultation, a scoping exercise. Before the scoping exercise, a working group must be convened to determine whether a scoping exercise is appropriate. The working group requires terms of reference. The terms of reference must be approved by a subcommittee. The subcommittee reports to a committee. The committee feeds into a framework. The framework informs a roadmap. The roadmap gets amended seventeen times and renamed a “strategic pathway.” The strategic pathway is then circulated to member states for comment. France requests more time. The whole thing goes back to the working group.

Any legislation won’t pass before 2027. Possibly 2031, if Italy has a strong summer season.

Ukraine is entering year five. Russians are entering Italy.

Four years of sanctions packages, candlelit solidarity vigils, and solemn declarations about European values, and Paris increased its Russian tourist approvals by nearly a quarter.

The EU didn’t fail to stop the missiles. It didn’t even try to stop the sunbathing.

Nobody "gives" you £5million and expects nothing in return.

This shouldn't be a controversial thing to say.

New figures show Reform raked in £9m in 3 months, with Farage still in the hotseat for his £5m "gift" from billionaire Chris Harborne.

£4m came from billionaire Ben Delo, who was convicted for facilitating money laundering in the US, but pardoned by Trump.

Farage is a cancer on our country. He must never be allowed to govern, ever.

.@Nigel_Farage "Pure cold rage" you asked for it. You got it.
A 72-year-old Sikh pensioner had his head stamped on. Cheekbone shattered. Six teenagers arrested.

Your words have consequences. Your silence is complicity.

Happy now? 👑

The biggest trading partners of each country.

And the AfD wants to leave the EU and prioritize Russia.

It’s like selling your house for a rotten sandwich.
Russia has nothing to offer than misery.

And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media.

A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children.

Lets make this viral again 👇

Here’s just one detail from @thenerve_news #HarborneReceipts timeline.

On the *exact same day* Christopher Harborne gives Reform £3m, Nigel Farage says Reform will lift cap on stablecoin ownership.

Where does Christopher Harborne’s money come from, you ask?

Stablecoins!

[Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein]

TRUMP: “illegal immigrants are taking your money.”

FACT: Donald Trump, via his Slush Fund, is literally taking your money and giving it to criminals.

@HollyGrayle Shut up, bastard.

[Volodymyr Tretyak 🇺🇦 @VolodyaTretyak]

Pro-Kremlin blogger Lebedev was denied a Greek Schengen visa. He says Schengen rules block visas if even one member state objects. Poland had previously banned him from entering its territory.

Why do all these idiots want to go on vacations in Europe, which they hate so much? 🤷‍♂️
