The Times are A-Changing By Richard Miller (London)

Will there be a charismatic figure to arise in Britain, and even Australia, to deal with our immigration crisis, and assault by the globalists? There was first the election of Javier Milei as president of Argentina, someone who has raged against the Left and socialism in the most colourful ways. Then more reserved, we have Geert Wilder in Holland being swept into office on sentiment opposed to the immigration weapon of mass destruction. Looking around Europe we have the AfD in Germany, Giorgia Meloni in Italy, and Marine Le Pen. In the UK, there is no major figure to lead the revolt of the masses.

Looking to Australia, as an informed outsider, there is the potential of Malcom Roberts from One Nation continuing to do great things. But the issue is that circumstances need to get really bad for the type of leaders we are seeking to rise to the occasion. Things are bad in both the UK and Australia, but seemingly have not reached this critical mass yet. But recent developments, a mentioned above, give hope that the tide is turning against the globo commo.

It’s been a big week for big hair. In the Netherlands, the silver demi-pompadour of Geert Wilders swept the leader of the Right-wing, anti-Islam PVV party to victory in the Dutch general election. A few days earlier, Argentina voted in an even more magnificent mane with a small politician attached. Javier Milei’s hair “is baffling the world,” gasped The Wall Street Journal, which is not exactly known for its coiffure reportage. The former economics commentator and anarcho-capitalist “rocks a mop that reflects his nonconformist campaign,” it reported. If you had to describe the style of Milei’s tempestuous barnet it would be “Englebert Humperdinck dragged through a hedge backwards”.

Not only has the pending president Milei promised to take a chainsaw to Argentina’s corrupt and bloated state, the libertarian revs an actual chainsaw at his rallies. My favourite thing, though, is his advisers; the first people he thanked during the presidential primaries in August – Conan, Murray, Milton, Robert and Lucas. Except they’re not people. They’re all dogs cloned from the English mastiff, Conan, whom Milei adopted in 2004 and referred to as “literally my son” and my “true and greatest love”. He says his “four-legged children” are the “best strategists in the world” and credits them with advising him on a host of issues.

We think our country has gone to the dogs but Milei, ever the optimist, thinks that if you want to run the country to the dogs is precisely where you go. The man who just got the highest percentage vote of any presidential candidate since Argentina’s return to democracy in 1983 reportedly consulted a medium after Conan died in 2017 to seek the late pooch’s advice.

Apparently, the ghost of Conan woofed that it was God’s mission for his master to become president, and look how that turned out. Can’t help feeling Jeremy Hunt missed a trick not consulting a deceased pet over his dog’s breakfast of an Autumn Statement. Both Wilders and Milei are often compared to Donald Trump who has his own spun-sugar edifice glued atop his head, although it has been known to take off in a breeze. Boris’s well-rumpled haystack was part of his appeal. Is big hair a sign of virility in leaders? There is something in that, I think, but exuberant locks also signal something wilder in a nature that voters find appealing, a willingness to disregard conventional, short-back-and-sides politics.

Wilders’s triumph took Right-thinking commentators (aka Leftist progressives) by surprise. All the journalists, including the BBC, are said to have been waiting for the result at the wrong party headquarters. Not the PVV (Freedom Party) but the VVD establishment party, formerly led by prime minister Mark Rutte. If they’d bothered to listen to the Dutch people, they would not have been shocked. Rutte’s downfall came when he tried to persuade his coalition government to make it harder for migrant families to reunite (of the 48,000 asylum seekers who entered the Netherlands last year, 10,927 arrived via family reunion).

The Dutch are a famously laid-back people, but it was obvious they’d had enough. As Wilders, who has supported a ban on Muslim immigration, shuttering all mosques and leaving the EU, said in his victory speech, “The largest party in the Netherlands, and I tell you, the voter has spoken. We are sick of it and we are going to ensure that the Dutchman comes first again.”

Wilders is certainly “far Right” but, across Europe, millions of reasonable people who are not far-Right are sick of their governments failing to stop high levels of immigration which put a strain on crumbling public services, make housing unaffordable, increase community tensions and jeopardise national security. (Such fears have only intensified since the pro-Palestine marches; they played a key role in getting Wilders over the line.) Ignored by politicians and enraged that anyone who doesn’t go along with this enforced “diversity” is accused of racism, voters are increasingly drawn to nationalists who feel their pain.

The AfD in Germany, Giorgia Meloni in Italy, Marine Le Pen edging ever closer in France and now Geert Wilders in the Netherlands. And to think it was Brexit Britain they accused of being xenophobic!

After yesterday’s disgraceful record net immigration figures – an extra million people admitted in just two years; totally unsustainable at four or five times the level of three years ago – the betrayal of the British people is complete. For a decade, the Government has promised a reduction in immigration while weakening the rules to increase it.

The Conservative Party is dead to me now as it is to millions of its formerly loyal supporters. Out of the ashes at the cremation we pray there will come a party which cares about the British people.””
