If you haven’t heard of Eva Vlaardingerbroek before, well, you have now. Perhaps you have previously seen her on The Mark Steyn Show. Given her name (the second one), you probably guessed that she is Dutch.
She just got approaching fifty million views of a speech she has just delivered in Budapest, my possible future home. It was at that city’s CPAC (Conservative Political Action Conference). Yes, fifty million. Two Australias. Thanks to Elon Musk’s takeover of the former Twitter, readers can see this extraordinary speech. No thanks to YouTube. They banned it because they deemed it “hate speech”.
A written version of the speech can be found here:

The Canadian blogger Lauren Southern thinks that this speech, which goes for a mere twelve minutes and forty seconds, will “change the internet”.
No wonder the progressive elites want to shut Eva down.
The subject of her speech was also about change. The big change that coming to the West. Well, in a sense it has already arrived. This is the massive movement of people from what we used to call the Third World to what we used to call the First.
Eva reveals just how much European cities have become African and Middle eastern enclaves. Eva’s numbers shouldn’t come as a surprise, for in Australia one third of us were born overseas, and a half of us have one or both parents born overseas. She names European cities and states the proportion of new arrivals in each. Brussels takes the prize. 70 per cent migrants. Ironically, the city with the least diverse set of beliefs has the most diverse population. Go figure! As Eva notes, whites – for want of a much better term – are in the minority already in these places. It is the same right across Western Europe, including her native Netherlands.
No one can possibly dispute the size and shape of the change. Nor that the acceptance of huge numbers of migrants who are not from cultures anything akin to the West, nor with values anything like our own, is occurring as a result of deliberate policy. Nor that this policy is new. What is disputed by the progressives is the attributed motive for the policy. Eva and Lauren Southern and Geert Wilders – who also spoke at the same CPAC – and I believe that the reason for the new policy is to replace the neanderthal nativists who have previously inhabited our countries with a new lot. Unsurprisingly, a message from Wikipedia springs from the page under Lauren Southern’s podcast:
The Great Replacement, also known as replacement theory or great replacement theory, is a white nationalist far-right conspiracy theory espoused by French author Renaud Camus.
Really. The attempts at “curating the public mind” by controligarch, fact-checking platform entities really are farcical. Sadly, they are also sinister and effective. Farcical and sinister, in equal measure.
What the coming wave of mass migration signals, more than anything else, is the greatest instance of hyper-colonialism in human history. And it will only get bigger. Geert Wilders pointed out that Africa’s population is projected to grow fourfold by 2100, from a current 1.4 billion to around 5 billion. That is a lot of Africans. And apparently about a third of the current 1.4 billion want to move! To where? Guess.
It cannot be denied that what is occurring now is colonialism 101. Far more invasive, too. Often, the British colonials either left the existing occupants to themselves, often worked with them, made treaties with their leaders (in New Zealand), and took their children into welfare if and when it was requested, only later to be accused of generational theft. (Hat tip to Keith Windschuttle, for all his mighty works in this area). The new lot often threaten us, take over whole suburbs that become no-go areas – a form of apartheid – and inflate the crime rate (as they are doing in Europe). They drive up unemployment and drive down wages. They add to the burden of welfare, almost from the moment they arrive. They diminish the speaking of English, which many of them do not speak and do not know. They bring old-world enmities and hatreds to our shores, as a growing number of university campuses now seedily attest.
Astonishingly, those among the progressive class, who say they hate colonialism more than just about anything else, absolutely love the nouveau colonialism currently under way.
There is another view, more nuanced. It doesn’t mind good colonialism. (And, holding this view, I speak as the great, great grandson of one who was transported to Australia by the British authorities and who didn’t have any say in the matter). It favours the colonialism of the Enlightenment and of the industrial revolution, the colonialism of Jesus Christ – “go and teach all nations” – the colonialism of running water and internal plumbing, the colonialism of fossil fuels, the colonialism of wealth creation and wealth transfer, the colonialism of social mobility and the colonialism of Bach and Mozart. The colonialism of cricket and rugby. European colonialism. Largely benign and compassionate, gifting to their outposts, from the start of the twentieth century, a welfare state and a democratic one. And giving to the people a free(ish) economy and the opportunities for productive labour and entrepreneurship that it provides.
And this alternate view of history hates bad colonialism. The colonialism of multi-mono-culture, of enclaves of hate, of the new world order that marries neo-liberalism with neo-Marxism. The colonialism of mass invasion by hordes of people and not just settlement by a governing class, as occurred with the Brits and the other Europeans. The colonialism of people who hate us before they get here.
I suppose the progressives might say the same thing, only with a very different view of what counts as good and bad colonialism. They prefer what I call bad colonialism. Like many of our new arrivals, the globalist elites hate US. And our values. They don’t hate “colonialism”, only our brand of colonialism. As Eva says, the elites have declared war on us. And they wish to replace us. And this is what they are doing. As Eva says, replacement “theory” has become replacement “reality”. And we are inviting them in. Well, our governments are, on our behalf. For our own good. They say, and perhaps believe.
It isn’t a coincidence that Eva’s speech took place at a time of escalating violence and crime in Western countries, much of it perpetrated by new migrant arrivals and involving knives. As she said:
Our new reality in Europe consists of frequent rapes, stabbings, killings, murders, shootings, and even beheadings. But let me be clear about one thing: This did not use to happen before. This is a newly imported problem.’
No, it didn’t use to happen before. Eva quotes the late Samuel P Huntington, who, nearing the close of the twentieth century, wrote a provocative and perceptive book called The Clash of Civilisations. Helpfully, the Washington post published the first chapter.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/style/longterm/books/chap1/clashofcivilizations.htm
I doubt of the WAPO would be publishing this today. The title gives away the main argument. The clashes of the future ill not mainly between nations or social classes, but between cultures.
In the new world of mass migration, the most pervasive, important, and dangerous conflict will not be between the social classes. They will not be between the rich and the poor. They will be between peoples belonging to different cultural entities. Tribal wars and ethnic conflicts will occur within civilizations.
Well, we still have the old wars (Ukraine) but we also have civilizational wars, as we now see in the Middle East (ignoring the arrant b.s about Gaza and genocide repeated by useful idiot students and leftists who should know better like C J Hopkins).
Eva’s debt to Huntington is substantial, and acknowledged. She has other debts, of which she herself may or may not be aware. Enoch Powell comes readily to mind. Eva didn’t mention “rivers of blood”, but she may well have. James Burnham’s tome Suicide of the West comes to mind. His bete noir at the time of writing was Soviet communism, but his sentiments travel easily to today. Then we have Bruce Bawer’s 2006 While Europe Slept and Christopher Caldwell’s 2009 masterful Reflections on the Revolution in Europe.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflections_on_the_Revolution_in_Europe
Eva has it in for Brussels, the proverbial evil empire, and the gameplan is, indeed, revolutionary. As per Caldwell.
Huntington’s big “clash” was with Islam. Written, of course, well before 9/11. In a later work, his last, Who Are We: The Challenges of America’s National Identity, Huntington noted the rise of the globalists, rich American businessmen with a sense of global citizenship and little regard for their homeland. So, he nailed two of the four current, existential threats to Western virtues and values, Islam and globalists. Even though he didn’t yet understand what mischief the globalists would get up to. The other two threats, Chinese economic imperialism and home-grown Western destructive progressivism, are just as real and the four, working in some sort of loose alliance, form a barely defeatable barrier to a Western future worth knowing and valuing. A Hobbesian dystopia which it is our dubious privilege to be witnessing in, as they say, “real time”. An existence not so far from the world described by the late Cormac McCarthy in his exquisitely brutal novels about the lawless, violent badlands of the American-Mexican border country. For Huntington, two out of four isn’t bad. No one else saw the emergence of the big four. (Coincidentally, the title of one of Agatha Christie’s spy-type novels).
Where there is an action, there is an equal and opposite reaction, as someone (actually, Isaac Newton) said. Not all of us accept the coming colonialism. The natives appear to be restless. Lauren Southern suggests that conversations and topics not allowed to be discussed a decade ago are now taking place in the mainstream. More than this, some of them are taking to the proverbial online streets. In the linked video, the protesters can be seen waving banners saying “we want our country back”. Perhaps some of them will vote for Laurence Fox’s Reclaim Party. I doubt that many of the protesters have heard of Bruce Bawer or Chrisopher Caldwell or James Burnham, but that matters not. They feel betrayal in their guts.
Oh yes, the natives are restless, and whatever they might think about the colonialism we all had to have – because colonialism is an embedded human characteristic – they don’t think much of the new colonialism. As one commenter said:
Bloody brilliant..... It's getting bigger. The Brits are rising.
It is, indeed, a “Stirring Anthem That's Waking Up Nations”.
Sadly, not in England’s capital, where they just re-elected the truly appalling Sadiq Khan, the absolute poster boy for the NWO (new world order). Well, it ain’t called Londonistan for nothing. With, as Eva noted, 54 per cent of Londoners now foreign born. Replacement works!

Btw she raised serious concern about the targeting of farmers in Europe to placate net zero.
Go Eva
Hello Paul Colitts, about Eva Vlaardingerbroek, fine speech , 50 million views as you say. She,s vitally concerned about migration. So are lots of others. Me among them . No one mentions the start of it all, which was the Kalergi Plan of 1922. Yeh , Count Coudenhave Kalergi back those 102 years ago wrote a book PRACTICAL IDEALISM which called for destruction of euro races by miscegenation with black/ brown migrants , so europeans would eventually resemble old time egyptians. I think this needs exposing , how it all got started. Are you interested in checking it out. Hope so,no one else seems to mention it...Part of the plan was for jews to be made masters of the new euro population, that was in his original plea...jewish bankers financed him to initiate action which lead to formation of the EU. Maybe thats why it doesnt get any exposure. We are gone cats unless we start to DO something. Check it out Paul, it needs amplification so normies might get up off their arse and look after our west. Please n thank you, WS
