May Day Protests Rock Europe

Thousands of nationalists rally across the continent as Europe finally starts to turn the corner

Special to Western Voices

Thousands of patriots rallied across the European continent in traditional May Day protests on May 1, a holiday long honored by our people as a salute to the workers who http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=3281 with sweat and determination. The 2009 events were even better attended than usual as the global economic crisis settles in, bringing progressive nationalists closer than ever to positions of power, riding on a success driven by both economic woes and the realization that not only is Third World immigration an unavoidable issue, but that all the “mainstream” politicians are unwilling to grapple with it.

Many in the US, who celebrate Labor Day in late August and early September, are under the mistaken impression that May Day is a “Marxist” event. In fact, Marxists often hijacked what was already a holiday in Europe, and had been since pagan days, one which has been consistently celebrated by European nationalists. Of course, no other ideology has oppressed workers as greatly as Marxism has, and, adding insult to injury, in their own name. European May Day 2009 was marked by a number of rival events, with Marxists, who long ago lost the support of the white working class, rallying in favor of “immigrant rights” as scabs for the corporate open borders agenda. Some of these protests became violent, most notably in http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=6729.Similarly, the annual May Day rallies in the United States in support of “immigration reform” were supported by the much smaller US Marxist (and misnamed “anarchist”) left, in bloc with corporations, Democrats, special interests and corporate foundation grant funded “immigrant rights groups.”

Nationalists are looking to June for the next expected European electoral breakthrough, when pollsters predict the British National Party (BNP) will send their first elected representative to the European Parliament, joining their colleagues from other European nations. The forecast win comes hot on the heels of another historic victory for the British National Party, when they scored a seat on the influential London Assembly, a feat pundits had long said would never happen for the “http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=6428, and one man running on the BNP ticket found his income threatened by a “coincidental” re-zoning of his place of business by the local government, controlled by the ruling New Labour. This kind of behavior, which mirrors politics in (other) Third World places, is, far from being a sign of the strength of the ruling system, actually a sign of its weakness. The days when dissidents could be hatebaited or beaten into silence or irrelevance are nearly gone, under the pressure of changing events.

BNP chairman Nick Griffin spent May Day campaigning at the famous ‘Obby ‘Oss festival in Padstow, Cornwall, a folk survival of the old Celtic Beltane May Day feast, in keeping with the BNP’s position of the sole political voice of the traditional values of the indigenous peoples of the UK.
