In a world where political correctness has forced browbeaten Europeans into a corner and left scores dead from Nice to Berlin, the eurosocialist establishment remains defiantly committed to the failed ideology of open borders and mass migration.
The EU’s multicultural cities are now pockmarked by no-go-zones where euroliberal diversity means armed police defending Christmas markets.
Consequently, the floundering EU is indeed at breaking point: 2017 is a hinge of fate year in which Merkel meets her political comeuppance, the FN readies for power, UKIP smashes Labour in the English North, and the Austrian Freedom Party consolidates its political clout.
Smart Move: It’s within this context that the Austrian Freedom Party signed a cooperation agreement with United Russia on December 19th. The agreement is for a 5- year term and calls for greater dialogue in the spheres of economic and educational cooperation.
Whether UKIP has the political gravitas of the Austrian Freedom Party, which ran a second election run on December 4th where it lost by only 7%, is a moot point: UKIP proved its steel with Brexit and its new leader, Paul Nuttall is a working class advocate for better relations with Russia- starting with an end to anti-Russian sanctions.
Above all, a memorandum of friendship and mutual understanding between UKIP and United Russia should provide a broader framework for cultural and strategic dialogue as free peoples overcome the artificial barriers the new cold war seeks to inflict upon us. Sovereign democrats like UKIP, the FN, the Northern League, and the Austrian Freedom Party must work together to counter the European Parliament’s grand coalition. Moscow is the natural pivot for the level of political calibration needed to manage this delicate process.
