“More important than the drilling of armies, more important than the construction of navies, more important even than the fiscal policy of the country is the question of who shall come to Canada and become part and parcel of the Canadian people.”

— William Scott, Canada’s former superintendent of immigration, writing in Canada and Its Provinces (1913), Vol. 7, p. 589

Something to keep in mind as you watch the rioting in France: mass immigration and state-imposed multiculturalism doesn’t just destroy a country and a people, it also ushers in forms of authoritarian government that become necessary as a way to manage the problems that arise from a population with significant unassimilated ethnic enclaves.

This is why we now see the political leadership of western countries making hard turns toward authoritarianism, and especially against free speech.

Freedom of expression is the one thing you cannot tolerate if the state is going to enforce multiculturalism and impose a large foreign population on a native one.

Indeed, managing tensions between disparate ethnic groups, and each group’s relationship to the state, is a hallmark of imperial rule, not republicanism.

This what’s unfolding now in Western Europe. It’s going to get worse.

Political communities did not consent to the mass demographic transformation of their peoples and ways of life. It doesn’t matter where one even personally stands on the issue of migration. This was done without democratic mandates and explicit consent of political communities. It is neither liberal nor democratic and it certainly is not consistent with the principles of liberal democracy.

“In the early 2060s, the white British will become a minority within the United Kingdom,” if immigration trends continue, warns demographer @MorlandDemog.

He says Britain has changed more in his adult lifetime “than in the preceding thousand years”. In Brent, where he grew up, white Britons are now “perhaps 15% of the population”.

“This is completely unprecedented.”

If you're curious why the media is spreading so much false information about the riots, consider:

— The French Culture Ministry paid €204.7 million in direct aid to the news media in 2023, of which Le Monde received €8.3 million, L’Humanité €6.5 million and Libération €6.3 million

— The @afpfr runs "fact-checks" in 26 languages, received €120 million from the French state in 2025, against €200.3 million in commercial revenue. @AFP is French government propaganda and disinformation

— European governments are committed through a UN agreement to spread pro-mass migration propaganda by funding it directly. The “migration compact,” which 152 governments voted for in the UN General Assembly in 2018, commits them to “stopping allocation of public funding... to media outlets that systematically promote intolerance, xenophobia, racism and other forms of discrimination towards migrants," which is broadly interpreted to cover criticism of mass migration policies

— To maintain control over news media, the European Commission funds a network of 15 fact-checking hubs with tens of millions of euros, and its rules require platforms to give priority to notices from “trusted flaggers.”

— Governments fund think tanks to produce reports, including ones demanding censorship, that the news media cover sympathetically and editorialize in support of.

— The @ISDglobal in London — which demands censorship of people it disagrees with on climate change, gender, and migration, refuses to speak with journalists, and lists a phony address — lists among its funders the British Foreign Office, the U.S. Departments of Homeland Security and Justice, the German Foreign Office and the European Commission, along with Google and Microsoft.

— Public reported in 2024 that ISD and the German fact-checker Correctiv, both government-funded, had spread false claims about German farmers and opposition politicians.

I do think immigration is the one thread that neatly explains Canadian politics for anyone who isn't a Trump-obsessed Boomer. It explains the result in Quebec. It explains outsized Conservative support among youth. It explains why Carney is popular in areas where Trudeau was not. The immigration surge of 2022-2024 was like nothing else in the West, it had an explosive and visible impact in almost every corner of the country, and it shook a lot of people up who had never before felt reason to be shaken by government policy.

'The American economist George Borjas has done extensive research on the impacts of labour supply shock. Writing for Politico in 2016, he detailed how an influx of workers with specific skills causes wages to fall for native workers who must compete with them.

Furthermore, Borjas wrote that, rather than vanishing, the wages largely transfer to employers and other uses of immigrant labour through lower costs and higher profits. In effect, mass immigration is fundamentally redistributive.

Borjas’ conclusion was that while immigration does not make a country poorer, it can mask enormous distributional consequences, in that businesses and migrant workers make substantial gains, while particular groups of native workers materially suffer'.

The thing you have to remember is that civilisations die. Ethnic groups die out, including in Europe. Entire histories, cultures and dynasties are wiped out. That is simply how history works.

Yet people today have this bizarre assumption that theirs will somehow survive indefinitely, even in the face of mass Third World immigration. Sorry, folks, but the world doesn’t work like that.

If young Canadians want housing affordability restored to CMHC’s original 2003/2004 target by 2030, Canada would need to:

➡️ Impose a full PR moratorium through 2030
➡️ Allow TFW and IMP visas to expire and pause programs
➡️ Return international student admissions to early 2000s levels (65,000/year)
➡️ Enforce departures
➡️ More than triple annual housing construction

If Canada implemented these population changes but kept today’s construction numbers, it would take until the late 2030s. Either way, restoring CMHC’s original affordability target will almost certainly require an immigration moratorium.

The foreign born population is the highest it has ever been in the history of the country, both in total number and as share of the whole. Ever. Surpassing even the Ellis Island wave.

We are in uncharted water. The last time we approached these levels, we stopped immigration cold for roughly 4 decades, and only by virtue of intense assimilation pressure––not to mention an existing dominant Anglo Protestant culture into which these new arrivals could be assimilated––plus the crucible of World War 2, did this eventually resolve itself.

People who think our current circumstances can just be hand-waved away, or that anyone describing the trade-offs of mass immigration are moral degenerates and therefore beneath concern, are completely delusional.

This is an issue that must be addressed head-on.

[Natasha Boeck @natashaboeck]

Ethnicity is a people who believe they are descended from common ancestors and share the same myths and memories.

In nationalism and ethnic studies, ethnic identity can be reproduced from above through the state or from below through peer-to-peer transmission. These state and elite attempts to redefine Englishness from above will end up strengthening P2P transmission of English ethnicity.

Academic left-liberal orthodoxy that the centre ‘mainstreams’ the far right by trying to reduce immigration is a zombie theory which has no data behind it and has lured in one centrist party after another.

On Labour Day, let us remember that Canada’s early labour unions opposed high immigration and kept it the number one political issue for our country’s first 50 years.

The big question for future historians will be why did the centre-left think that mass immigration from the world's worst countries was so important that they were prepared to sacrifice themselves and the liberal order for it? https://t.co/wDBvR4wdDq

[Natasha Boeck @natashaboeck]

Canadians have every right to be angry and organize against the narratives and policies that brought extreme immigration and the cascading crises they have been forced to absorb. Whether one agrees with the policy solutions put forward by organizations and fellow citizens is beside the point.

Mayors who condemn immigration policy gatherings but will not advocate for immigration levels that protect the interests and futures of their residents have their priorities backwards.

Leaders at every level of government who dismiss immigration discussions and debates as exclusionary or racist are not fit to lead Canadians.

[Paul Embery @PaulEmbery]

Here’s the problem. The liberal political class wants us to treat atrocities like Belfast as single, random, isolated incidents. “Yes, it’s horrific, but don’t overreact,” they say. “Let the police do their job. Justice will be delivered. Let’s remain united,” and so on.

But the public can see that such incidents *aren’t* random or isolated. They are, in fact, all the consequence of massive state failure in the area of asylum and immigration. All roads lead back there.

That’s why people are angry.. They are sick of the platitudes that get trotted out after each fresh incident. They don’t want to hear them anymore. They know that the decisions of establishment politicians have brought us to this current pass, and they don’t trust those same politicians to fix things, especially when some of them refuse to even recognise that the public’s anger is justified.

There has been a huge vibe shift in recent years. Imagine - God forbid - there were another 7/7. Does anyone think the public response would be anything like as restrained as it was then? We are in really dangerous territory.

The public don’t want flowers and candles and “Don’t let them divide us.” They want someone who says, “I recognise that the state has failed abjectly. We have allowed far too many people to settle in the country without knowing who they truly are. It has disrupted your communities. Your anger is justified. And I will do everything in my power to put things right.”

Any politician unwilling to articulate that message, fully and sincerely, is effectively sanctioning more years of growing social disharmony and discord. Things cannot heal until those in power recognise the extent of the problem and what it will take to fix it. And, on both counts, most of them don’t.

That’s why the next few years are going to be very, very turbulent.

How America’s Racial Politics Poisoned Britain

By @KonstantinKisin

The last words of Henry Nowak were “I can’t breathe”—the same few words that, six years earlier, were the spark that lit the fuse of an explosive political movement. They were stenciled on murals in cities across the world. Chanted at marches. Printed on T-shirts. They were declared on the floor of the United States Congress and quoted in parliamentary debates in Westminster. When British police officers knelt in the streets of London, it was those words they were kneeling for.

The shocking footage has been met with statements of anger and disgust from politicians, amid calls for events “not to divide us.” Britain’s home secretary, Shabana Mahmood, called the footage a “disturbing and tragic thing to see.” But you are not likely to see Henry’s words stenciled on a mural. No corporation will change its logo. The same establishment that made a few words immortal when spoken by a black man in Minneapolis has met the same words, spoken by a white boy dying on a British street, with what can only be described as a determined, institutional silence.

That silence is not neutral. It is a statement. It tells you exactly whose suffering the system has decided counts, and whose does not. And it was produced not by the old racism—not by skinheads and hooligans—but by the people who spent six years telling you they had abolished it.

Or, put another, way: immigration was artificially boosting economic performance measures. Interesting that he would admit this!

[David Betz @DavidBe31099196]

The Macpherson Report and the murder of Henry Nowak are causally linked through the corrosive logic of multiculturalism and its institutional offspring: two-tier policing.

By the time he was stabbed to death in December 2025, 18-year-old Henry Nowak would have been eight years younger than the 1999 Macpherson Report. The nature of the former—and especially the police response—is directly tied to the latter.

Sir William Macpherson’s inquiry into the Stephen Lawrence case redefined institutional racism expansively. It instructed police to prioritise perceptions of racism from minority complainants. This well-intentioned reform, born of genuine outrage at one racially motivated murder, embedded a structural bias: complaints from certain communities received swift deference, while the concerns of the native majority were often dismissed as prejudice.

Over a quarter-century, this shifted the state’s posture from impartial referee to quasi-imperial active manager of ethnic sensitivities. 

Fast-forward to Southampton, 3 December 2025. Henry Nowak, a Polish-British student, was stabbed five times—including a fatal chest wound—by 23-year-old Vickrum Digwa, who was legally carrying a 21cm kirpan, a privilege extended to no others in British society. As Henry lay dying in his own blood, Digwa falsely claimed racial abuse (citing a bruised eye). Officers handcuffed and arrested the victim rather than rendering immediate aid.

Police later apologised—unconvincingly, particularly after the leaked bodycam footage emerged. The IOPC is investigating. This is not mere incompetence. It is the predictable outcome of Macpherson’s legacy: officers socialised to fear being labelled racist more than failing to protect life.

Listen to Henry’s father. Watch the leaked video and don’t look away. Henry didn’t get a dignified death. He died frightened, drowning in his blood while being mocked and then advised of his rights. Scriptwriters would be sent back to the room if they suggested something so on-the-nose in a gritty drama—yet this is grotesque UK reality.

People should be furious about it. The government is paralysed by ideology, fear, and cowardly shamelessness. Genuine media that holds power to account is in short supply.

Setting anger aside for a moment, multiculturalism erodes the pre-political loyalty that underpins state legitimacy—the special sauce of governance. When institutions apply justice asymmetrically—aggressive on Islamophobia or native 'hate', hesitant or inverted when minorities are perpetrators—trust collapses. This is textbook anarcho-tyranny.

Polls show historic lows in institutional confidence. Incidents like Nowak’s, amplified by grooming scandals, knife crime disparities, and uneven protest handling, accelerate the collapse.

The consequences are stark: feral zones in cities, rural-urban fractures, nativist backlash, and escalating intercommunal violence. Would you choose to walk your dog where Wayne Broadhurst was stabbed to death, or send your son to university where he might be degraded while dying and begging police for help? What would you do if violence and rape regularly targeted you and yours and the police seemed indifferent?

It used to be brushed off as part and parcel' of modern urban life, or 'don’t look back in anger'. That was low, dishonest, and weak. Now the strategy is silence—which may be the least bad option left for this dishonest, discredited government.

We are sliding toward the civil conflict I have warned of—not as cause, but as consequence—of Britain’s unravelling as a coherent nation. The drivers are obvious because they strike normal people faster, wider, and deeper. The reactions are predictable. War is adaptive behaviour; civil war is simply more brutal and socially miasmic. Henry’s killing is not an isolated tragedy. It is a chapter in a larger, nationally suicidal debacle imposed on ordinary people by a governance system that has grown functionally undemocratic over thirty years.
