Majority of illegal migration to Europe is economic, not fleeing war or persecution |
Why is it "Far Right" to:
(1) Be concerned about illegal immigration as ~75% of Europeans are, by all polls.
(2) Be concerned about Law and Order? Has James Downes not seen the destruction of great cities, like LA and San Francisco, by “progressive” anti-law & order policies?
(3) Support the "ordinary person" against the diktats of an elite bureaucracy in Brussels?
Answer: it's not "far right" to be worried about these issues! It's normal human beings worried about their environments, their neighbourhoods, their lives and their livelihoods.
But to Leftie Luvvies like Downes, this is all Nazi adjacent.
Rather a Meloni than a Marxist! Rather a Sunak than a Soros.

The mods didn’t like the above, deleted it. I have another go:
Downes claims the "far right" in Europe concentrates on "three core issues". In my view these are reasonable concerns of reasonable citizens, and callilng them "far right" is to demonise them.
(1) Immigration. EU citizens' concern is with *illegal* immigration, which around 75% of people are against according to all polls (similar, btw, to the US and the UK).(2) "Tough on crime and promoting .. law and order". Who doesn't want a peaceful society in which criminals are apprehended and law and order followed? How on earth is that "far right"? We can see in the rampant crime, open drug taking and widespread shoplifting in cities like LA and San Francisco, what happens when you ignore law and order.(3) "...claiming to represent ordinary people against ... the political elite". Again, how is this "far right"? Why shouldn't the "ordinary people" be represented, when all the policical power is with unelected bureaucrats in the EU Commission?EU people concerned with the above issues are concerned about their environment, their neighbourhoods, their lives and their livelhoods. Nothing "far right" about that.
