Sweden Democrats condemn migration minister’s multicultural stance

Åkesson states that Sweden is “multicultural” because the Moderates have actively worked against the will of the people to achieve just that.

On Wednesday, Swedish Migration Minister Johan Forssell declared that Sweden is and will remain a “multicultural society”– stating that “it is a fact that no one can change”.

The Sweden Democrats leader Jimmie Åkesson is not merciful in his criticism and states on the contrary that “multiculturalism” should be rejected, that Sweden is and should remain the country of the Swedes – and that the Moderates themselves are very much to blame for the way Sweden looks today.

– Sweden will be a multicultural society, because it is today. We have such large groups from different parts of the world. But we must be much clearer that when people come to Sweden, Swedish laws and values and the Swedish language apply, the Minister for Migration claimed.

In a later interview with state television SVT, Forssell went on at length to argue that the borderless mass immigration policy has brought a lot of positive things to Sweden and that there are great advantages to the country no longer being homogeneous.

– In many ways, there is much that also enriches our country. Differences. That we are not all the same, that we bring different cultures, that we have different religions for that matter, that we celebrate different holidays, the Migration Minister explained.

“Doesn’t have to be a problem”

– That doesn’t have to be a problem, as long as we manage to unite under some very important values. That’s what has not worked in recent years, he said.

Johan Forssell also stated that there has been a demographic shift in Sweden that has led to the country today looking completely different from before.

– That there are many different Swedes with different backgrounds. That people have different experiences and religions. That’s how our country is, the Minister said.

“Sweden should be Sweden”

However, not everyone is impressed by the rhetoric, and Sweden Democrat party leader Jimmie Åkesson says that the immigration minister’s statements “are both surprising and worrying” and that he seems to “capitulate to multiculturalism”.

“I honestly thought we had come further, that this harmful view had been consigned to the dustbin of our history. Anyone can see what has happened to our country!” the SD leader thunders.

“Sweden should not be multicultural. Sweden should be Sweden. The people who have chosen to settle here should adapt to Swedish norms and values and essentially strive to become part of the nation. It is unfortunate that it needs to be pointed out, but this absolutely necessary approach to getting our country in order is the exact opposite of multiculturalism”, he continues.

“Shaped by Swedes for centuries”

In a later post on X, Åkesson emphasizes that “multiculturalism has destroyed Sweden” – and that the Moderates themselves have historically been the driving force in transforming the country beyond recognition.

“We are all aware that many people in Sweden have ‘different backgrounds’. This is of course due to the policies they (the Moderates) themselves have pursued historically, and it is a reshaping of Sweden that has never had the support of the Swedish people. Mass immigration, combined with multiculturalism, is the reason why Sweden today looks like it does”.

“The fact that people ‘have a background’ does not mean that they can forever invoke this in Sweden. Quite the contrary. Our country is our country. It has been shaped by Swedes for centuries. If you come here and live here, it’s on our terms. The choice is free”, concludes the SD leader.

Orbán warns of Europe’s extinction: “A nation without children has no future”

Population replacement in the West

"In the end it comes down to a very simple thought. If not enough children are born we will disappear", states Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán issues a stark warning that European nations face extinction unless birth rates increase.

In harsh terms, he criticizes Western Europe’s “population replacement through migration” and explains that Hungary invests its economic resources in families instead of mass immigration.

In a post on X, the prime minister articulates his clear position:

“If a nation has no children, it has no future. The West chooses replacement through migration, we choose our families and our children. That is why we dedicate every possible economic resource to supporting them. Our future will not be imported from abroad”, he states.

In a radio interview, the Hungarian prime minister develops his argument and describes the demographic crisis as an existential issue.

— In the end it comes down to a very simple thought. If not enough children are born we will disappear, says Orbán, and continues:

— It must be understood that a shrinking country cannot be successful. Thus, when a community shrinks, its members will inevitably be increasingly worse off.

“A matter of survival”

Hungary’s leader emphasizes that the country’s population is “a matter of survival, both in the long term from a histtorical perspective and in the short term for the sake of economy”.

The Hungarian leader presents two paths for Europe to handle the demographic crisis. He is highly critical of the Western model.

— There is the Western path. There, not enough children are born and migrants are brought in one by one. There are fewer Germans or fewer French, and they are replaced by Muslims, he says.

Orbán explains Hungary’s strategy: “That path can be chosen, others tried it before us, we kept our heads down, did not let foreigners in, watched what happened to those who did, and what we not see in western Europe is not attractive. I do not recommend that we copy it, but then we need to have our own children”.

Massive support for families with children

The prime minister acknowledges that having children is a private matter, but emphasizes the state’s role in creating conditions.

— This is of course a private matter since the state cannot decide how many children someone should have, he says, but explains at the same time that Hungary still does what it can to try to create incentives for increased childbearing.

— What we can do is to support mothers who undertake giving birth to at least two children which means that for themselves and their husbands there is one child each. So they are maintaining our community.

The Hungarian leader describes how the country recognizes and rewards families with children economically.

— We recognize them, we support them, and we do not allow them to live worse lives just because they chose to have two children than those who did not. Those who are willing to raise children must be respected, acknowledged, supported and encouraged.

London mayor attacks Trump: “Racist and islamophobic”

Population replacement in the West

Published 25 September 2025

London is a city in profound decline according to Donald Trump, but a cultural world city if you believe Mayor Sadiq Khan.

Donald Trump warns of sharia law in London and attacks the Pakistani-born mayor Sadiq Khan as a “terrible mayor”.

Khan counters by condemning the president as “sexist”, “racist” and “islamophobic”.

The war of words between the two politicians escalated after Trump’s UN speech on Tuesday, where he painted a very dark picture of Europe’s mass immigration problems.

– Europe is in serious trouble and is being invaded by a force of illegal aliens like nobody has ever seen before, Trump said in his speech.

He directed particularly sharp criticism at London and its mayor:

– Where you have a terrible mayor, a terrible, terrible mayor, and it’s been so changed. Now they want to go to Sharia law, but you’re in a different country, you can’t do that.

“He is racist”

In an interview with BBC London, Khan, whose parents immigrated from Pakistan, countered by throwing various epithets at the president.

– Trump has shown he is racist, he is sexist, he is misogynistic and he is Islamophobic, Khan said.

The mayor simultaneously defended London’s status as a world city, despite it being listed as the 16th most dangerous city in Europe according to the Numbeo Crime Index.

– We are often number one in the world when it comes to culture, foreign investment and sport. I’m really proud we are the greatest city in the world, Khan claimed.

He further claimed that a large number of Americans had actually chosen to move to London during Trump’s presidency.

Britons in minority

London has undergone extensive demographic change in recent decades. White Britons today constitute a minority in the capital, as well as in Birmingham and other major British cities after decades of extensive immigration primarily from Asia, Africa and the Middle East. Just over 15 percent of London’s population today identifies as Muslim.

Decades of mass immigration have brought enormous social and economic problems. Violent crimes, particularly knife attacks and gang-related violence, have increased sharply in the major cities where residents in many areas now live in insecurity and vulnerability.

Segregation has worsened dramatically with entire neighborhoods transformed into foreign ethnic enclaves as the native population has been successively forced to flee areas where British culture and language have been displaced by imported customs and norms.

Despite the extensive negative consequences for the white British population – from lost residential areas to increased insecurity and cultural displacement – both Labour and the Conservatives have for decades stubbornly continued to pursue a mass immigration policy that has fundamentally changed the country.

Merkel admits: Population replacement policy drove Germans to AfD

Population replacement in the West

Published 25 August 2025
– By Editorial Staff
Today, the AfD is the largest party in large parts of eastern Germany - largely due to the policies pursued during Angela Merkel's tenure as German Chancellor.

In a new documentary, Germany’s former Chancellor Angela Merkel admits that her borderless migration policy from 2015 onwards caused many Germans to abandon the establishment parties and instead turn to the nationalist Alternative for Germany.

Despite her migration policy having far-reaching negative consequences for the German people and society, Merkel emphasizes that she regrets nothing.

“Wir schaffen das” – we can do it. Angela Merkel’s words from August 2015 became the symbol of Germany’s borderless mass immigration policy when the country received nearly one million asylum seekers during a single autumn. The decision, which was made without broad political support, fundamentally changed German society according to many observers.

Now, nine years later, the former Chancellor is forced to admit in a documentary on the public service channel ARD that her policy also had major political consequences – and that many Germans abandoned the old established parties and instead sought alternatives that better represented their interests.

— Of course my decision caused people to join AfD. And in that way AfD definitely became stronger, says Merkel in the documentary.

“Major task”

The EU- and immigration-critical Alternative for Germany (AfD) today runs almost neck-and-neck with Merkel’s own Christian Democratic CDU/CSU in opinion polls – a dramatic development that can be directly linked to the mass immigration wave of 2015 and the societal problems that followed.

Despite this, Merkel refuses to acknowledge any mistakes. In the documentary, she stubbornly defends both her policy and her controversial statement.

— It wasn’t meant to express anything other than that we face a major task, she says about the infamous words “Wir schaffen das” – a promise that many Germans today consider naive, deceptive and detached from reality.

Stifled debate during Merkel’s era

Under Merkel’s leadership, Germany pursued perhaps Europe’s most borderless immigration policy, while all criticism was systematically dismissed and opponents routinely labeled as “racists” and “Nazis” – a smear campaign strategy that remains common ten years later.

Germany also has some of the Western world’s harshest laws regarding opinion crimes. People who publicly criticize immigration policy in strong terms risk substantial fines and prison sentences – an arrangement that free speech activists say has created a culture of self-censorship and fear of expressing what one really thinks about the consequences of immigration.

Despite more than one in five Germans today voting for AfD – and the party being largest in large parts of eastern Germany – its opponents still try to criminalize it by claiming its policies violate the German constitution.

Rhetorical shift

In recent years, Germany and several other European countries have drastically changed their rhetoric around migration. Talk of open hearts and boundless solidarity has been replaced by demands for stricter border controls and tougher asylum rules.

In practice, however, the tougher rhetoric has not resulted in any comprehensive change. Mass immigration continues, albeit at a somewhat lower pace, while promised large-scale deportation programs repeatedly get bogged down in bureaucratic processes without ever being realized.

In Sweden, for example, the current government often speaks of a migration policy “paradigm shift” – despite mass immigration continuing at historically high levels and Sweden receiving almost 100,000 migrants last year.

Orbán: “Mass immigration – a silent weapon”

Population replacement in the West

Published 8 August 2025

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán argues that it is the Hungarians' "duty" to protect both Hungary and Europe from the consequences of mass immigration.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán warns that mass migration is one of the most acute threats of our time – and that both Hungary and Europe must be protected before it’s too late.

In a post on X, Orbán describes migration as a “silent weapon” that can fundamentally change a country without a single shot being fired.

“It changes cities, neighbourhoods, entire nations, until one day you feel like a stranger in your own home. Our duty is clear: protect Hungary, protect Europe”, he writes.

At an appearance at the MCC Feszt festival in Esztergom, Hungary, where he recently spoke to hundreds of young people, Orbán elaborated on his reasoning. He noted that many young people don’t see migration as a direct threat, despite it being, according to him, “the most decisive and immediate” threat to Europe.

— Migration is the best example of how a country can be lost forever without any weapons being used, he continued.

“Believe your own eyes”

The Prime Minister urged young people to travel around Europe’s major cities and compare today’s reality with older history books. The purpose, he argues, is to discover for themselves how cities have changed beyond recognition.

— If you do not believe us. Then believe your own eyes. This is how you can lose your own country almost imperceptibly, without war, without conflict, in a way that no one asked you and you never agreed to,

Orbán also pointed to how quickly developments can occur.

— Suddenly you start to feel that the entire situation you find yourself in has become foreign. Like when you take the subway home through a suburb, for example. Ten years ago it didn’t look like this.

According to Orbán, migration is the greatest and most acute challenge facing Europe – a threat that, if not stopped, risks permanently changing the continent forever.

— It may not seem as brutal as war, but it’s a constant threat that will persist for decades. We will be under constant pressure – greater pressure than what we experience now.
