Thousands of Irish protested against the population replacement policy

Population replacement in the West

Many Irish people believe that politicians have ruined the country and must be replaced for change to be achieved.

On Saturday, tens of thousands of people gathered in Dublin to honor historic freedom fighters and protest against the ruling political elite and the policies of population replacement that many believe have destroyed Ireland.

A major draw was the outspoken MMA fighter Conor McGregor, who warned that the Irish people are becoming a minority in their own country.

The event was described as a tribute to the 1916 Easter Rising – an attempt to break free from British rule, but which was brutally crushed by the British army and led to the imprisonment and execution of a number of separatists.

According to the organizers, the main purpose of the weekend’s national demonstration was to honor “those who fought and gave their lives to preserve the Irish nation and create the Irish Republic“.

However, it was clear that those gathered did not just want to honor historical heroes – they also wanted to clearly express their dissatisfaction with today’s Irish politicians and how they are treating their own people. Many of the participants carried Irish flags and signs with messages such as “Irish Lives Matter” and “Ireland is Full” – or caps with the text “Make Ireland Great Again.”

Exactly how many people took part in the protests depends on who you ask. Left-wing liberal media reported “thousands” of national demonstrators, while others estimated that over 100,000 people were present.

“Together we rise”

Although he was not part of the organizing group, UFC star Conor McGregor was instrumental in getting so many Irish people to join the protests. In several social media posts that received millions of views, he urged everyone who could to join in and emphasized the importance of remembering history.

– Over 100 years ago, our brave men and women made the ultimate sacrifice so that we could live free today. So let us remind ourselves why we are here. And also why we are not here, McGregor proclaimed in a widely shared video clip.

– We are not here to build hatred amongst each other. We are not here to sow division. We are here to commemorate the valiant heroes who went before us. We honor their spirit, we honor their fight, he continued.

McGregor believes that the country’s government has failed in most of its endeavors and must be replaced—and that it is therefore necessary for the people to express their dissatisfaction.

– Be respectful, be proud, be united.Because together, we will be heard, and as one, we will be victorious in our mission… Together we rise, together we win. God bless us all and God bless Ireland.

“Spreading destruction in the country”

Despite the presence of a small group of counter-demonstrators, the demonstration is said to have proceeded relatively peacefully, with many children, women, and elderly people also taking part. A selection of photos and video clips from the day can be seen below:

As a curiosity, it is also worth mentioning that Conor McGregor has said that he is considering running in the fall presidential election – and although political opponents and some analysts have dismissed his chances, he is immensely popular in many quarters.

On several occasions, he has launched harsh attacks against the Irish government and its mass immigration policy, which he believes has been imposed on the Irish people against their will.

– The illegal immigration racket is running ravage on the country, he declared at a press conference in the US, stating that “Ireland is at the cusp of potentially losing its Irishness”.

Sweden’s increased repatriation grant deemed insufficient by Somalis

Population replacement in the West

Published yesterday 7:19
– By Editorial Staff
In order for the grants to attract Somalis to leave the country, they must be able to "lay the foundations for a long-term livelihood", it is argued.
Editorial Staff
editorial@nordictimes.com

SEK 600,000 (€55,000) in repatriation aid for voluntarily leaving the country is far too low an amount for many of the country’s Somalis. That is the assessment made by the chairman of the Somaliland National Association after speaking with its members about the matter.

Already last autumn, the Moderate-led government declared its intention to significantly increase the financial support for migrants who voluntarily return to their home countries – from SEK 10,000 (€900) to 350,000 (€32,000).

Further details have now been presented, including that a couple can receive up to half a million SEK to leave Sweden, and that families can be granted even higher tax-funded sums than that – up to SEK 600,000 (€55,000).

– Voluntary repatriation creates opportunities for individuals to make a new start in life and can lead to economic and labor force growth in another country, argues Migration Minister Johan Forssell (M) in a press release.

“Long-term livelihood”

To prevent abuse, the idea is that those who accept the aid but then remain hidden in Sweden or later return could be required to repay the money.

Despite the significant increase in the aid amount, it is still expected to have limited impact. The Somaliland National Association has asked its members about the issue and concluded that the willingness to voluntarily leave Sweden remains very low – and that this is due to purely economic reasons.

– I don’t think 600,000 for an entire family is enough of an incentive. Most of those we interviewed mentioned significantly higher amounts in order to be able to lay the foundations for a long-term livelihood, says chairman Mustafa Ismail.

Want to see focus on education

The Somali interest group also does not think it is a good idea to pay out the money as a lump sum as long as the migrants who leave the country are not also given help to start their own businesses in their home countries.

– Instead of giving money to individuals, we should look at investing in entrepreneurship, Ismail continues, calling on the Swedish government to focus on developing training programs in professions and industries that are considered necessary in Somaliland.

Ismail also emphasizes that comprehensive voluntary repatriation can only take place if the process is carefully coordinated with the country that will receive the migrants.

Somaliland is a self-proclaimed republic in north-western Somalia with its own government, currency and security force that has operated as a de facto independent state since 1991, but lacks international recognition.

The majority of the population of Somaliland belongs to the Isaaq, Gadabuursi and Dhulbahante Somali clans and the different clans are often in complex and protracted conflicts with each other or other clans in Somalia.

The conflicts are usually about power, natural resources and influence, and about different clans claiming historical rights to specific areas that are currently controlled by other family networks - in principle, however, all are ethnic Somalis and share the same language, religion, culture and historical origins.

Fewer Swedish women want to have children: “A societal change”

Population replacement in the West

Published 15 April 2025
– By Editorial Staff
Birth rates across the Western world are at alarming levels
Editorial Staff
editorial@nordictimes.com

One in four young women now say they are unwilling or reluctant to have children in the future, while birth rates are at historically low levels.

Midwife and professor Tanja Tydén points out that there are things that society can do to try to get the birth rate going again, if only the political will exists.

The Nordic Times has previously highlighted the study from Uppsala University, which shows that only 75 percent of young women in Sweden today say they want to have children – a sharp decline from 91 percent just ten years ago.

Of those who answered why they did not want children, most said they simply had no desire to become parents. Health reasons were the second most common reason and the third most common was that they valued their freedom more than having children. Economic reasons came fourth and the fifth most common reason given by women was concern about alleged climate change and overpopulation.

– It’s a societal change… There are far more people now than before who do not want to have children. A quarter of women say they are hesitant or don’t want to, explains Tanja Tydén, a midwife and professor at the Department of Women’s and Children’s Health at Uppsala University.

“Some are afraid of the climate threat”

She points out that only in the last decade has there been a sharp decline in the proportion of women who want to have children, and that there are several different explanations for why family formation is less popular today.

– Some say they simply don’t want children, others say they value their freedom, and some say they fear the threat of climate change.

– One group has said that the economy is driving this, she continues.

Although some of the factors are difficult to change politically, she points out that society and politicians can actually create incentives to increase childbearing – for example, by making parental benefits more favorable for certain groups.

– When it comes to an issue like the economy. If you have studied for a long time and become pregnant at the end of your studies, you receive the absolute lowest parental benefit. Society has the opportunity to make a change here.

Same trend throughout the Western world

Last year, Statistics Sweden noted that the number of children born per woman in Sweden had fallen to 1.43 – the lowest figure ever recorded in the country. In order to avoid a negative population trend, an average of around 2.1 children per woman is needed.

Instead of focusing on increasing birth rates, both center-right and center-left governments in Sweden have over the past decades prioritized immigration from the third world – resulting in population growth despite declining native birth rates.

Sweden is not unique either – with the same trend visible across the Western world, and in the EU as a whole, the birth rate in 2023 stood at 1.38 children per woman – and significantly lower than that in countries like Spain, Italy and Poland.

Trump plans biggest mass deportations in US history

Donald Trump's USA

Published 14 April 2025

Trump campaigned on deporting millions of illegal migrants.
Editorial Staff
editorial@nordictimes.com

According to four current and former federal officials with direct insight into the planning, the Trump administration aims to deport at least one million migrants in the first year of the president’s return to the White House.

This would be the largest deportation program in US history, surpassing the previous record set during Barack Obama’s presidency when around 400,000 migrants were deported annually at its peak.

According to the officials, who spoke to the Washington Post on condition of anonymity, White House adviser Stephen Miller is working closely with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and other agencies on a daily basis to achieve the goal.

However, the sources say there is still much uncertainty about how the mass deportations will be realized – not least because the agencies that will carry them out are suffering from staff shortages and budget constraints. Lengthy legal processes are also highlighted as a problem, as most migrants currently have the right to have their cases heard in court before they are deported.

One possible strategy to achieve the goal is to focus on deporting some of the 1.4 million migrants who already have final deportation orders but have not yet been sent home because their home countries refuse to accept them.

The administration is reportedly currently negotiating with up to 30 countries to accept deportees who are not their citizens, including Mexico, Costa Rica and Panama. A legal document mentions that it hopes to send “thousands” of migrants to such third countries.

“Efficient mass deportation of terrorist and illegal aliens”

White House spokesman Kush Desai declined to answer questions about the administration’s goals, but wrote in an email to the newspaper that the Trump administration has a mandate from voters to repair the Biden administration’s handling of border security and illegal migration.

“The entire Trump administration is aligned on delivering on this mandate, not on arbitrary goals, with a full-of-government approach to ensure the efficient mass deportation of terrorist and criminal illegal aliens”.

During his election campaign, Trump promised to deport “millions” of migrants when he came to power – and the Vice President, JD Vance, mentioned last year that a million could be deported first. However, according to the administration’s own figures, the process is complex – as immigration court proceedings can take years at worst.

The Trump administration has already sent hundreds of migrants to a mega-prison in El Salvador and to the Guantanamo Bay detention center in Cuba – but these represent only a fraction of the millions of illegal immigrants in the country.

“Not just a switch you can turn on”

Finding the 1.4 million aliens with deportation orders who are in the US in the first place is also considered a very complicated project – despite a coordinated effort involving the FBI, DEA and ATF.

Therefore, the Trump administration has requested that Congress authorize additional funding to expand the effort and deploy additional personnel – although this is also expected to take time.

– The deportation process is time-consuming. That is not just a switch you can turn on, said former migration commissioner Doris Meissner.

Currently, an estimated 11 million illegal migrants are in the US.

Muslims use the Constitution to build Sharia enclaves in the US

Population replacement in the West

Sam Amin talks about his plans.
Editorial Staff
editorial@nordictimes.com

Islamic critic Amy Meek, founder of the Resistance Against Islamic Radicals (RAIR) Foundation, is sounding the alarm about what she describes as systematic attempts to abuse the US Constitution in order to establish Shariah enclaves in the United States.

In a social media post, she refers to a podcast in which Muslim real estate developer Sam Amin describes his efforts to create an exclusively Muslim community in Texas based on Islamic law.

Amin describes the project as more than just a housing development – but rather an Islamic enclave where the streets are named after Islamic conquerors and where condominium fees fund the local mosque.

He further testifies how legal tricks are used to discourage non-Muslims from moving in, and how frontmen with classic American-sounding names are used to hide the project’s true purpose.

– We’re making the laws… we’re putting those laws, Amin says in the podcast, also mentioning that “seventy-five percent of the fees go to the mosque”, while laughing at the use of names like “John Smith” in official documents to avoid unnecessary attention.

Amin also claims that he hires local experts – lawyers, engineers and planners – with ties to the municipality to smooth the way for the projects.

– I hired everyone the township knows… their attorney, their civil engineer, their planning commissioner. This is their boy.

“Using the Constitution as a cover”

Amy Meek reacts sharply, saying this is a strategy to replace the US Constitution with Sharia law, and she points to several similar housing projects in Texas – such as EPIC City in Plano and other areas of the state that now have Muslim-sounding names like “Medina Villas”, “Villas of Andalus” or “Alhamra Valley”.

“They are using the Constitution as cover to build a system that will one day replace it. Meanwhile, our government remains frozen, unsure how to stop this threat”, she writes, and continues:

“All appear branded for Muslims. All centered around mosques. They have Islamic street names and even mosques built into the housing ‘community’. All are believed to be functioning as de facto Islamic enclaves”.

“The American Dream – for Muslims”

In a widely circulated video clip, viewers are guided around what is described as an all-Islamic community in Irving, Texas, with the guide cheerfully declaring that “everybody is Muslim here” and the enclave reminds him of his “100% Muslim country“.

– Texas is the future, he states, declaring that this type of enclave is “the ideal life for Muslims”.

– This is the American dream – for Muslims, he says.

Amy Meek says these are carefully planned Islamist colonies, and calls on Governor Gregg Abbott to act.

“This isn’t assimilation. It’s replication. And it follows a well-known Islamic doctrine: Hijrah – migration for the advancement of Islam, not integration into host cultures”.
