VDARE: Austrian Immigration Patriot Party Has Chance To Strike Back At Deep State Plotters
This Sunday, September 29, for the second time in two years 6.4 million Austrians will vote a new parliament. The deep political crisis that triggered these new elections came after 17 months of the most popular government this tiny little country in the heart of Europe ever had. It was elected on an anti-immigration wave—and it was destroyed by the Deep State. Sound familiar, Americans?
In September 2017 the overwhelming majority of Austrians had voted for the centrist Peoples Party (ÖVP— Österreichische Volkspartei) and the right-wing Freedom Party (FPÖ—Freiheitliche Partei Österreichs), hoping for an immigration crack-down that would control the borders, stop illegal immigration and send back migrants not entitled to asylum. This revolution had been made possible by Sebastian Kurz, the new leader at the helm of the ÖVP. This very young (then 31) and smart former minister for foreign affairs led his party out of coalition with the socialist SPÖ— Sozialdemokratische Partei Österreichs. His party stopped observing the cordon sanitaire isolating the right-wing Freedom Party, a prohibition that has kept the right out of power in much of Europe. This decision to enter a coalition with FPÖ opened the way for an immigration patriot government. For the first time since 2007 a socialist chancellor had to hand over his office to a politician to his right. read more
