Trade union demo against American tourists: We were only making a bit of noise on the quay

What I cannot forget is the elderly man slowly and unsteadily making his way down the stairs from the cruise ship while LO demonstrators shouted hateful slogans at the passengers. We can say with certainty that they had been looking forward immensely to coming to Norway. In all the years I have lived in America, I have never heard a single negative word about Norway from Americans. It is always, “Oh, it’s so beautiful”, “I’d love to go there”, or “I could imagine living there”. That is why this story hit me so hard.

«Just another brick in the wall»

When did it become progress that a child’s waking day is, in practice, spent with strangers, while time with parents is squeezed in between pick-up, dinner, exhaustion, screen time, the evening routine and bedtime? We pretend this is neutral. It is not. A one-year-old who spends the hours from 7:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. in daycare does not primarily live within the family. He lives within the institution. The family becomes an evening ritual.

Asylum expert: Remigration is the main principle of refugee law

Remigration is the central principle of the Refugee Convention. “The two principal concepts in refugee law are asylum and repatriation—the latter meaning return to one’s country of origin. After the Second World War, large populations returned to the countries they had been forced to leave,” former human rights judge Hanne Sophie Greve wrote in Norway’s ex-Conservative newspaper Aftenposten in 2016. Ten years later, support for remigration is being branded as extremism.

A civilisation dies when its own children no longer know why it should endure

Those who come from a society where freedom has already been lost often see more clearly than those who are born into freedom and therefore take it for granted. For Europeans, freedom has become like air. They assume that the rule of law, women’s freedom, freedom of expression, freedom of religion, and the separation of religious and political power are normal conditions in the world. They are not. They are historical exceptions—fragile, hard-won, and easily lost.

British report: 250,000 white British girls systematically raped by Pakistani Muslim gangs

At least 250,000 young white British girls have been subjected to repeated rape, gang rape, trafficking and torture by organised gangs. The perpetrators were overwhelmingly Pakistani Muslims. The authorities knew about it for decades, yet chose to look the other way.

From taxpayer-funded schools to tax fraud: Islamist networks leave Sweden owing millions

Independent Muslim schools and preschools linked to radical Islamist networks have received more than one billion kronor from Swedish taxpayers. Now, key figures are fleeing the country, leaving behind tens of millions in unpaid tax debts.

Collectivism doesn’t come in boots, but in forms

What happens when those who carry society finally discover that they are no longer carrying a civilisation, but an apparatus that lives off them? Collectivism rarely arrives marching in with boots first. It comes with forms, committees, good intentions, redistribution schemes, directives, and a language in which coercion is always called care. In our time, this is often called the European Union.

Norway’s school crisis gives the Right a winning issue

Schjøtt-Pedersen has handed the Progress Party (FrP) a winning issue: the decline in Norway’s schools is now too severe to hide. Government minister Kari Nessa Nordtun offered no remedy, arguing that the problem extends across Western Europe and reflects a broader civic malaise. According to the Office of the Auditor General, roughly one-third of pupils in compulsory education lack adequate reading and writing skills after years of schooling.

The Left’s madness is finally beginning to collapse

A woke, postmodern left has imposed every conceivable form of ideological excess on the public. Climate hysteria, gender ideology, an incessant focus on racism, and anti-Semitism have all been part of the package. But now it appears that growing numbers across the West have had enough. Young people—particularly young men—are leading the backlash.

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.
