Three things tell us there is widespread enthusiasm in Ireland for mass remigration of our foreign guests:
1. Opinion polls before — and after — the elections showing that 80% of voters are of the view that we have already taken in too many foreigners.
2. The family referendum held a few months ago, where concern about Mohammed importing his four wives was a big factor in the proposal’s 70-30 defeat, which was supported by almost all the parties and the mainstream media.
3. Our eyes and ears: peaceful protests against refugee centers here, there, and everywhere; Garda [the Irish police] baton charges on protesting women and children; and more than 20 empty refugee centers expertly burnt without injury or death, thank God. And so on and so forth.
The results of the elections tell the very opposite story: zero anti-migration Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) were elected, while all over the rest of Europe, anti-migration parties made gains. Even Dublin, despite all the protests against refugees, elected four out of four pro-migration candidates.
There were 949 local council seats on the ballot: only five seats filled by anti-migration parties, and perhaps another half-dozen anti-migration independents; at most, 2% of seats. Lots of independents were elected, but most avoid opposing migration.
How did a strong majority that wants to stop immigration end up electing 98% pro-immigration councilors and 100% pro-immigration MEPs?
The simplest explanation is vote switching on a massive scale. The government prints a duplicate set of ballot papers, fills them out according to a careful plan, and switches them for the real votes before the boxes are officially opened. (In one-third of the country this would not even be necessary, as there were no anti-migration local election candidates. I suggest fear of retaliation as the main reason why no anti-migration candidates ran in those areas.) One place where the switcheroo could happen is in the vans that transport the ballots to the counting centers. Or possibly even in the counting center itself: The Leitrim County Council confirmed to me that only one Garda was guarding the ballots overnight before the count. Presumably it is easier to persuade one carefully selected Garda to turn a blind eye than four.
Other possible explanations
1. Massive non-voting: Half of voters didn’t vote. Their reasons include “Why bother? It’s rigged anyway,”. “By voting you are feeding the Beast system” (which they say as they are scrolling on their Beast mobile phones), or “Oh, the vote was yesterday? I thought it was today.”
2. Anti-migration voters voting for candidates who are in pro-migration parties or whose views are unknown. Some councilors from pro-migration parties are themselves anti-migration, and speak out against it. Some independents avoid the topic and give ambiguous answers in order to attract anti-migration voters while avoiding being attacked as racists and so on. Even the Government parties have teased us with talk of deportations and crackdowns — while they simultaneously increase the flow of migrants! It is possible that some anti-migration voters were fooled by this kind of talk.
3. Registration of new arrivals as voters and directing them which way to vote. This has certainly happened, but while it accounts for votes for the pro-migration parties, it does not explain the low anti-migration vote.
If we accept that all non-voters were anti-migration and that the majority of anti-migration voters cast their ballots for candidates who were in pro-migration parties, then there is no need to consider fraud as an explanation. As I previously wrote, fraud seems the simpler explanation.
Possible solutions
Non-voters can possibly be cajoled into voting through logic, mockery, and the famous guilt trip. (“Hey, Patrick Pearse got shot so you could have the vote. Get out of the pub right now, you lazy bastard, and go do your patriotic duty!”) On voting day, anti-migration campaigners could set up stalls, banners, and live music in towns, reminding people that it is election day.
There are several high profile anti-migration writers who are loudly calling for people not to vote: “You are feeding the Beast system, even if you vote for an honest man!” according to them. It should be possible to debate publicly with them, and offer them an alternative: Go to the polling station and spoil your vote in some way, possibly by writing insults. This means they have not voted, and thus are not tainted. However, if we know that in ballot box No. 4 there are is a vote with “Get them out!” written on it, and when we watch box No.4 being opened and the spoiled vote is not there, then we know they’ve switched the votes!
Forcing candidates in pro-migration parties to publicly debate migration might expose them to the voters. From my own experience in the campaign, they are very eager to avoid talking about the topic.
Fraud is hard to deal with. Even if Our Guys were able to get video footage, sworn eyewitness testimony, and solid DNA evidence of fraud, it is unlikely in the extreme that any Garda or judge would investigate in any way. The most they would do is listen solemnly to our evidence, enthusiastically promise to investigate, and issue bland statements over the next five years saying that the matter is under active investigation.
Perhaps repeated personal contacts with all police, civil servants, and businesspeople involved in our elections, warning them of our concerns about rigging, might work. They might feel a little exposed, and more reluctant to engage in election rigging. If we could have huge, loud, happy, singing anti-migration crowds outside the counting centers, perhaps that would encourage the vote-switchers not to go ahead with it. A couple of cars could follow each van that is bringing ballots to the count center, and an all-night peaceful vigil could take place near the center, which is often a hotel.

As the anti-migration candidate with the fewest votes in the whole country, here is what I learned from the campaign:
Leaflets work well, and there are places brave enough to stock them. Posters are good, but vulnerable to destruction. Local newspapers are awful, but local radio has allowed some coverage of our views. House-to-house canvassing is time-consuming but probably worthwhile.
My campaign involved putting on a straw hat, playing a snare drum, and publicly mocking migration policy. I carried a sign saying, “Deport convicted rapist refugees.” The votes recorded show this to be a very poor tactic, but the big smiles on the faces of passersby show the opposite. In any future campaign, I would put on more frequent events on the streets with my straw hat and snare drum, and aim for bigger crowds.
The Gardai dislike our current migration policy even more than the regular citizen, as the cops have to deal with the problems they create. They dislike their boss, and they resent having to force unwanted foreigners into neighborhoods. While some of my slogans could possibly be construed as breaching the peace or causing offense or whatnot, they did not arrest me even once during the whole campaign. Somebody called them every time I appeared on the streets, but they never arrested me.
In front of the local courthouse, where dozens of cops and criminals were milling around, I called the Top Cop a criminal and dedicated Elvis Costello’s famous song to him, with its controversial lyrics partly sung, partly snarled:
But it’s no laughing party
When you’ve been on the murder mile
Only takes one itchy trigger
One more widow, one less white nigger . . .
Oliver’s army are on their way!
I alleged that our Pretty Boy Minister for Children and Refugees hates children and is kidnapping them. A once-pretty, childless, crazy woke lady roared abuse at me, alleging that I have not been paying child maintenance. She repeatedly tried to get the cops to arrest me for hate speech and whatnot. They smirked at her and suggested she cross the road to the cop shop and make a complaint in there. She didn’t!
I spotted some Nigerians across the road, and broke into Harry Belafonte’s “Banana Boat” song. Woke is so crazy that this song can be construed as a racist insult, and indeed, the Nigerians were highly insulted, though they stayed on their side of the road. The cops loved the song, with one serving, uniformed cop even joining in on the chorus as he passed me: “Daylight come and me wan’ go home.” When the majority of cops join in the singing, we’ll know that change is imminent.
I learned that there is a lot of freedom of speech here, in the right circumstances. The state loves to publicize the prison terms it gives to people for thought crime, but they imprison only a tiny fraction of all offenders. Enoch Burke has spent a year in jail because he refuses to bend the knee to the transgender nonsense, but I and many others have said much more insulting things and they have never laid a finger on us.
Also, if there is a next time, I will carry a crowbar. Candidate James Conway in south Sligo reported himself to the Gardai after smashing at least 50,000 euros’ worth of a refugee landlord’s property. He got 600 votes — 20 times my total of 32. (And the cops are only charging him with 8,000 euros’ worth of damage, to minimize the whole thing. The national media did not whisper a word about him.)
If a majority of honest anti-migration candidates were elected, that would only be the start of our problems. We could expect the global pro-migration crew to spark a financial crash, organize six months of rain, get a few mass bombings going in our towns and cities, and possibly cut off food supplies and electricity.
Nothing we can’t handle!
Beir bua.
Appendix
The following is a cleaned-up version of my election leaflet. Three shops were happy to stock it. For a laugh, I sent it to Irish Network Against Racism, just to check if there was anything they wanted taken out. They didn’t even reply, so I assume they have no problem with it.
Mass Migration Madness: Stop immigration. Start DEPORTATION. Bring back the ethnic Irish abroad to fill job vacancies. Every White country in the world has swarms of foreigners with bad attitudes demanding to be let in. Research the Kalergi plan if you want to find out why . . . Refugee accommodation is a billion-dollar scam, and some local politicos support it because they make money from it.
I support “Operation Clontarf”: The peaceful, friendly deportation, done with all Christian charity, of ONE MILLION fake refugees, convicted criminals, Roma Gypsies, Algerians, Nigerians, Pakistanis, Afghanis, Israelis, Bangladeshis, Georgians, smooth-talking smiling English spooks, and Dutch shysters. This simple, low-cost measure will solve many problems with housing, hospitals, education, pollution, treachery, and crime . . .
Big Tech Badness: The owners of Big Tech are evil. Technology is perverting our children and making us crazy, lazy, sick, and forgetful. Ban mobile phones for under 21s, to protect their brains. Ban mobile phone adverts and put cancer health warnings on all phones. 4G masts are bad, 5G are worse. Stop all new masts, dismantle all masts near homes and schools. Have you noticed how ALL these people who “died suddenly” have mobile phones and vax certificates? Follow the science, people: wwwNoslavecollar.weebly.com. LED streetlights are bad for human eyes, so why are we installing them?
EU lunacy: The EU is run by bloodthirsty, child-sacrificing, devil-worshipping Zionist lunatics. So it’s no surprise that they often make lunatic laws, like giving all our fish to foreigners and destroying the viability of small farms. We must opt out of this lunacy, the sooner the better. If you elect mise, it will be a slap in the face for them agus cic mór sa thoin acu freisin! Please continue to vote for other Independents and honest candidates. Check out these Telegram channels: Irish People, Migrant Crime Ireland, Liberty Stream Network, orlaredchan, FieryJack, GetThemOut, Martin Costello, and Roscommon man Keith Woods (big in the US!), but don’t believe everything you read . . . Ádh mór agus beir bua!

In a way, the racial attacks thru migrant invasion on places like Ireland upset me more than the clownshow here in America because while we have had racial conflict from day one, for the Europeans it is entirely imposed by policy. And that is a conscious betrayal by the leadership class, without precedent in all of human history. Dante’s Ninth Circle will overflow.
Pardon me for adding this, but it is related in a larger sense. Nine years ago today, a beautiful young White American girl was walking along the San Francisco piers with her father and was shot to death by a Mexican who had been deported five times. The vile anti-Whites here made sure that he got off without punishment. As the saying goes, You can’t hate them enough.
In memory of Kate Steinle and all the White women whose lives have been destroyed by Third World filth.
The author describes the kind of crack-pot ‘political activism’ that hamstrung the pro-White movement for over half a century. If you wanted to create a spectacle designed to push normal, decent people away from a movement or idea, walking around in a straw hat banging a drum is right up there with an ‘I love Hitler’ shirt and giving the ‘Roman salute’ and barking ‘Seig Heil’ at the drop of a hat.
That being said, I share the author’s frustration with not being able to figure out why an ‘anti-immigrant vote’ did not present in the latest elections. However, if, in fact, there is a conspiracy to defraud the public at the polling stations, it seems to me the Irish have a very good way of ‘direct voting’ that was deployed for over a century. The efficacy of this forming of ‘direct voting’ can be seen in the surgical destruction of the twenty ‘refugee centers’ mentioned by the author.
The Irish know that the only ‘true vote’ is one with the threat of disruption behind it.
It does not matter what the ‘ballots’ say is you refuse to accept what the ballots say.
There’s a distinction here. If you’re waving a swastika and nobody is behind you, then you get 100,000 sneering journalists. If you’re waving a swastika and everyone is behind you, then you get a Machtergreifung and a Gleichschaltung. That said, nobody is really waving swastikas here. Although the street theater he describes wouldn’t fly in America, it’s different over there.
Ireland has shown the most grit of any nation in a very long time. When the buses show up in the middle of the night to move unwanted “refugees” into a hotel or migrant center, the Irish people are right there, physically barricading them until they go away. I’m not Irish myself, but I love those guys. Here in America, we struggle just to get people to take an anonymous survey.
The author is unfortunately a complete crank. There was no swicteroo, you just ran a terrible campain. Sein Fine, Fianna fail. Fine Gael are all antizionist as most other Irish parties. Instead of admitting Ireland is one of the most woke countries you blame the yids who are not politically active. A well written book by Merle Fainsod “how Russia is ruled” explained that in 1860 the “volya i zemlya” party did what you did for forty years without results, only when they began “poxod na narod” “going to the people”did they see results. It actually shocking that you are the equivalent of the meme. “Is it me? Hmmm, no it must be da joos”, your Irish brethern sold you out much more than Blackhat rabbi from dublin
How did the Irish people sell themselves out? Mass migration is about as popular with the public there as the Jeffrey Epstein Home For Wayward Girls. Instead, it was the p0liticians who took it upon themselves to decide that Ireland has to become a multiracial mudpie, just like their role models in England.
Je suis desole mon beau. You are contradicting yourself. The Irish people are selling themselves out, just like us. Ireland has shown NO GRIT. Just like us in Canada and Nouveau Zealand they are one of the most woke countries. 2/10 of their population is already replaced. Where was the fighting spirit? Im not saying we’re better, but Im pleading for results. Every choice they get on the ballot box is antizionist, antijuif sentiment is widespread yet if ganainm deported all the isrealis nothing would change. However I am not in the business of “Judea apologia”. But I want to warn that alot of amercains and dissedent righters have ireland ancestors et they feel strong connection to the isle. (Dont worry nobody will acuse you of being dual citozen if your Irish-americain). We get snapshots from certain e personalities to make it look like there fighting but there not. I wonder how Keith woods must have felt when he led the rally, only to be opposed by the fag coalition waving palestin flags, despite all his shilling. Instead of saying yes majorite of Irish hold liberal democratique views. These personalities make it look like the nationalists are going to the the power in two weeks. We had the same thing in Quebec with maxime bernier, who if you looked online would think would win but non we went liberal because we too scared to take the revolutionary step. When we stop lying to ourselves will be the day we make progress
