A group of activists have today brought the Save Europe Act to the doors of the European Parliament after gathering well over half a million signatures since the end of May last.
Dutch nationalist and political commentator Eva Vlaardingerbroek, along with Austrian identitarian activist Martin Sellner and Belgian activist Dries Van Langenhove, led a crowd of supporters in front of the Parliament building in Brussels, where police had set up a blockade of barriers with barbed wire.
The Save Europe Act was launched at the now-annual Remigration Summit to demand that EU leaders freeze inward migration from “non-Western” countries as well as take steps to immediately expel illegal immigrants and those who are a “threat” or dependent on state welfare. It has since surpassed 530,000 signatures.
Those behind the act claim that “native Europeans” are being “replaced” and that the current generation is the last who have an opportunity to turn the tide “before it’s too late”.
Vlaardingerbroek, a 28-year-old mother of one, expressed concern for the future of her son, saying that Europeans were already a minority in Brussels and that other parts of the continent were not far behind in terms of demographic shifts.
Martin Sellner accused the EU of wanting to “cut it [the Save Europe Act] down”, saying this was “only because it’s patriotic”.
“What’s happening here right now is the beginning of a movement that will shake up and change all of Europe,” he said.
Speaking to the gathered crowed he said, “The real enemies are not migrants, and that is why we are protesting here,” adding, “the real enemies are in this building behind me, those who are responsible, those are the people who are betraying our nations,” he said, adding that it was nescssry to “get rid of” those “traitorous elitles” to “send millions home”.
After the group was not allowed to enter the Parliament buildings to deliver the petition, the pages of which were brought in a wheelbarrow, the Mayor of Brussels, Philippe Close, banned a planned gathering outside the buildings; however, lawyers for the group were successful in overturning the ban.
