Norwegians are already a minority in the New Norway

Norway’s population grew by 33,000 in 2025, with 96 per cent of the increase consisting of people without kinship ties to Norway. Since 1985, the population has risen by 1.5 million, of whom fewer than one quarter have such ties. The ethnic Norwegian population is declining by 10,000 annually and is projected to become a minority. Current trends indicate that people of African and Asian origin will eventually form majorities.

Europe in Wonderland: Belgium criminalises the truth

In a ruling that should send shivers down the spine of anyone who still believes in Enlightenment values of reason, evidence and open debate, a Belgian court has convicted the nationalist activist Dries Van Langenhove for the crime of presenting uncomfortable facts. This is not just another skirmish in Europe’s war on free speech. It is something far more sinister: the explicit criminalisation of observable, verifiable reality itself.

What’s wrong with our politicians? When will the pitchforks come out?

The gap between politicians and ordinary people continues to widen. Politicians buy votes by taxing productive citizens ever more heavily in order to finance unproductive client groups, but that cannot continue indefinitely. Eventually, they will drain Norway’s sovereign wealth fund until it is empty. Only then, perhaps, will the typically placid Norwegians reach for the pitchforks.

Cry me a river: Norway boss Ståle Solbakken provoked by American halftime show

The world’s smallest violin is playing for the national team manager and other Europeans outraged by an American halftime show. But as Dorothy said in The Wizard of Oz: “Toto, I’ve a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore.” And you are not in Europe anymore, either. The World Cup final is being played in the United States, and Americans do things the American way. So put down the brown cheese and the Kvikk Lunsj, stop the whining, and enjoy the show!

Diversity is a strength — and it kills the weak

The West opened its doors believing that noble savages would learn respect for life. Instead, it imported the bush, the desert, the Qur’an, and savagery with its unwritten laws of blood and domination. Societies do not die because they encounter enemies. Societies die when they lose their judgement, when they confuse war, which belongs to the human condition, with barbarism, which is the very celebration of humanity’s destruction of humanity.

A love that harms our neighbour is not inspired by God

When the Christian order is shattered, it is not only the vices that are set loose, but the virtues as well, and they can cause far greater disasters, Chesterton argued. We see this when well-intentioned policies produce harmful outcomes, whether in communities transformed by mass immigration or in children harmed by puberty blockers. We have arrived at a form of neighbourly love that demands others sacrifice themselves to satisfy politicians’ desire to display their humanitarianism. This misplaced love does not come from God.

Our culture is superior to theirs. Full Stop.

What should one say about a culture in which a pregnant woman can be sentenced to death for changing her religion? Should men from such a culture be allowed to settle in Belfast? We have every right to deny entry to swaggering young men from cultures of this kind, for they are backward, inhumane, and inferior to the freer and more merciful civilisation that we in the West have had the privilege of living in.

Now it’s exploding in Britain

Warnings of civil war in Britain have been simmering for some time. It seems we are now dangerously close. The straw that broke the camel’s back was the horrific attempted beheading in Belfast. Even if a full-blown state of emergency does not break out immediately, it appears likely that the United Kingdom is heading for a “summer of discontent”. The British can thank an immigration policy that has failed completely.

The warning Lights have been flashing since 1957 — Yet elderly care is in full collapse in 2026

In 1957, Oslo Kinematografer produced the short film Oslo and the Elderly (Oslo og de gamle), warning that the proportion of elderly people in the population was steadily increasing. The welfare state was still in its infancy, and the oil boom lay decades in the future. Yet the wealthier Norway became, the poorer its elderly care grew. Now the Health Minister says that warning lights are flashing in the municipalities — the same warning lights that have been flashing since 1957, when Vestre’s great-grandparents were first in line, rather than immigrants and foreign aid.

The reddest morning in a hundred years

When the Danes got a deep-red government programme that increases state power and restricts citizens’ freedoms, it is the result of the political centre of gravity shifting leftwards — to where the Socialist People’s Party (SF) is located. The centre-right parties are also responsible for the country now having become the Democratic Republic of Denmark (albeit with a royal house) — a nanny state and a liberal-socialist country. What more could we possibly ask for?
