A popular folk festival in the Berlin borough of Friedrichshagen, the Bölschefest, has been cancelled because the organiser said he felt he could not guarantee visitors’ safety “against attacks by persons with vehicles”.

Planned for the weekend of May 10 and 11, the street festival featuring a flea market, food stalls, an entertainment programme and regional association booths, has suffered the same fate as several carnival parades in Germany following a string of car-attacks, a number involving suspected Islamists.

“We cannot adequately secure this road against attacks by people with vehicles,” Hans-Dieter Laubinger, managing director of Laubinger Event company, said in a statement on March 6.

“After consultation with the police, we would have to protect the road areas for vehicles on the Bölsche with concrete,” Laubinger said, although the entrances and exits for trams would have to have remained open.

In addition, all side streets leading to Bölschestraße, which would have played host to many festival-goers, were also not secured against vehicles breaking through, the organiser said.

“Our technical and economic possibilities are not sufficient to sufficiently block the open entrances to Bölschestraße,” Laubinger said.

Instead, the intention now was to hold a smaller festival in the Friedrichshagen market square on the second weekend in May, he told the Berliner Morgenpost on March 6 indicating it was easier to secure.

Streets such as Bölschestraße “are almost no longer suitable for such festivals in these times”, he said.

During the Covid pandemic the festival was cancelled in 2020 and in 2021. In 2023 construction works prevented that edition of the folk festival.

Despite the cancellation of the Bölschefest this year, a later event in the same street, the Bölschestraßenfest, was set to continue. The organiser of that event, the Capital Culture Association, said it would take all necessary precautions in consultation with the Berlin police.

In recent months, Germany has been hit with a number of attacks killing several people.

There were also several stabbings, with the most recent one taking place in Schönebeck in Saxony-Anhalt, on the morning of March 7.

Special forces of the State Criminal Police Office reportedly shot a 26-year-old Afghan after he had threatened a German of the same age and the police with a knife. The culprit later died in a hospital.

A man, a North African living illegally in the country, is checked. In his bag, the police find various packets labelled as such. They contain cocaine and marijuana.

The person does not deny that he was supposed to throw these packages over the prison walls. Messages on his mobile phone show that he has placed about 20 orders from prison since February 3. However, he said that it was a humanitarian gesture during Ramadan for the people in prison who lacked everything.

The government of Donald Tusk is escalating its assault on Poland’s Catholic identity, targeting religious education, traditional values, and freedom of speech. Through radical educational reforms, speech restrictions, and legal maneuvers, the ruling coalition is systematically eroding the Christian foundations of Polish society.

Poland’s Ministry of Education, led by far-left politician Barbara Nowacka, on Thursday, March 6th, announced on Thursday that Health Education will replace the long-standing Family Life Education in schools. The new curriculum, set to begin in September 2025, introduces Western-style permissive sex education based on World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines, which promote sexual liberalism from an early age.

The curriculum encourages discussions on sexual health and relationships, far removed from Poland’s traditional, faith-based approach to family and personal development.

Despite government claims that the subject will be optional, parents fear pressure and social engineering in schools, especially given the Polish government’s clear ideological agenda.

This move mirrors the policies of Western liberal governments, where so-called “comprehensive sex education” has been used to normalize abortion, LGBT ideology, and the pornographic industry’s influence on youth culture.

While the ministry assures that parents can opt out, similar assurances in Western Europe have led to coercion, social exclusion, and legal repercussions for families resisting state-mandated ideological indoctrination.

Tusk’s government is also pushing radical hate speech laws that will criminalize criticism of LGBT ideology, gender activism, and leftist policies. The amendments to Poland’s Penal Code passed by the Sejm, also on Thursday, expand ‘hate crime’ definitions to include gender, disability, and sexual orientation, making it easier to prosecute those who speak against radical social changes. The changes include up to three years in prison for criticizing LGBT ideology.  

Equality Minister Katarzyna Kotula did not hide her joy at the adoption of this far-reaching amendment: “The hate speech protection bill has been passed. The Penal Code will now include new protected characteristics—sexual orientation, age, gender, and disability. This is the fulfillment of the ruling coalition’s promise to social organizations, and I am delighted that we could pass this change together. The amendment expands the list of hate crimes to include four new categories, which will now be prosecuted ex officio, just like offenses based on nationality, ethnicity, race, or religion. The witch hunt against LGBT+ people from the PiS era is now just an infamous chapter of history”.

Paweł Śliz, an MP from Polska 2050, defended the bill, arguing that any form of hatred must be met with severe punishment.

However, the lack of clear definitions in the bill raised concerns among critics. Karina Bosak from the right-wing Confederation warned that the law could criminalize speech without clear legal boundaries.

“The scope of what can be considered a crime under this law is completely vague and arbitrary. If a court rules that a crime has been committed, imprisonment is mandatory. The bill does not provide for fines or alternative sentences. Handing out three-year prison terms for opinions on sexuality is absurd”, she argued during a debate in the Polish Parliament.

Lawmakers from PiS condemned the law as an attack on free speech, warning that it could lead to the imprisonment of people for expressing biological facts.

“This law has only one purpose—to gag people and imprison them for opinions that, in a democratic state, they have the right to express,” Michał Woś, PiS MP commented.

This law follows the authoritarian model already in place in Germany, Belgium, and the UK, where pastors, activists, and ordinary citizens have faced prosecution for expressing their religious beliefs. Critics warn that Christian teachings on morality could soon become illegal in Poland.

“This law is about silencing opposition. In Western Europe, similar laws have led to arrests for praying outside abortion clinics. Will Catholic priests in Poland be next?” asked Dr. Artur Dąbrowski from Catholic Action Poland, quoted by the Catholic radio broadcaster Radio Maryja.

Earlier, in yet another blow to Poland’s Catholic identity, the government cut religious education in public schools, ignoring the protests of the Catholic Church and the constitutional rights of parents. Religion classes, that came back to Polish schools after the fall of Communism, were reduced to one hour per week and scheduled at inconvenient times (before or after regular school hours) to discourage participation. No consultation was conducted with the Church or religious organizations.

The Polish Bishops’ Conference has condemned this move as illegal, emphasizing that Polish law requires consultation with religious institutions before making such changes. The Church has warned that this is only the first step toward removing religion from schools entirely.

“Reducing religious education is a direct violation of parents’ rights and religious freedom. It is an attempt to push Christianity out of public life,” the Polish Bishops’ Conference warned in a statement.

The attack on Catholic education and speech freedoms is part of a broader ideological agenda aimed at weakening Christianity’s role in Polish society. As Ordo Iuris, a Polish legal think tank, warned in 2024, Tusk’s government plans legal changes that could strip Christians of their rights and marginalize their influence in public life. The plans include restrictions on religious schools,  funding for Catholic institutions, and potential removal of Church tax benefits (despite similar funding existing in most EU countries).

These changes mirror the trajectory of Western European countries, where Christian values have been erased from public life through a mix of censorship, legal persecution, and state-controlled education.

“If we do not resist these attacks now, Polish Christians will soon find themselves in the same position as believers in Western Europe: persecuted, silenced, and forced to hide their faith in public life” Jerzy Kwaśniewski, chair of Ordo Iuris Legal Institute, warned.

On today’s #NCFNewspeak, your New Culture Forum panel discuss:

• Sentencing Council’s new guidelines sound the death knell to “Equality Before the Law”
• Is Britain a Christian or Muslim country?
• Trump’s New World Order

Jarosław Kaczyński, the leader of the Polish opposition Conservatives (PiS), has accused the European Commission of planning to intervene in the country’s presidential election due in May.

He was reacting to news that the EC was planning to organise a “round table” to discuss preventing the “abuse and manipulation” of the election’s outcome.

Henna Virkkunen, the EC’s Executive Vice-President for Tech Sovereignty, Security and Democracy, was asked in an interview with broadcaster Deutsche Welle (DW) on March 4 if the EC aimed to scrutinise and monitor Poland’s presidential election. That was  in the context of alleged abuse of social media platforms by the “far Right” designed to promote its contents and people. 

She responded by saying: “We are indeed preparing, together with the national authorities,” adding: “Before elections, we always organise a round table and analyse different scenarios with the national authorities, NGOs and the online platforms themselves.”

That, she said, was to ensure that they “cannot be abused or manipulated and  have systems in place  that prevent the spread of disinformation”.

Virkkunen recalled a round table was held together with the German authorities ahead of that country’s general election on February 23. She confirmed  that a similar event “will happen in the coming weeks”, ahead of Poland’s presidential election on May 18.

Kaczyński reacted to Virkkunen’s remarks on March 6, telling reporters he feared a repeat of events that took place in Romania where the results of the first round of the election in November 2024 were annulled and the second round of that election cancelled on December 6, with the whole election set to be repeated in May this year. 

He claimed there were “clear preparations to simply repeat what happened in Romania, that is, to defend this repulsive so-called liberal-democratic, and in fact anti-democratic, system against change, against the building of democracy”.

Other PiS figures chimed in, with former PiS prime minister Beata Szydło telling broadcaster wPolsce24 that Virkkunnen was “undoubtedly attempting to interfere in our internal affairs”, which he said was “absolutely unacceptable”.

The PiS’ candidate in the upcoming vote, Karol Nawrocki, said Brussels should stay “far from the presidential election in Poland.

“Poles will choose their president of Poland. Our president will not be chosen by Brussels, Berlin or Kyiv,” he insisted.

In February, Poland’s PiS-aligned President Andrzej Duda said developments in Romania had made him concerned that the EU could interfere in May’s election over his successor.

The PiS has also noted that Virkkunen, back in 2020, posted a number of Tweets expressing support for Rafał Trzaskowski, the presidential candidate of Tusk’s  Civic Coalition (KO). He had stated a victory for Trzaskowski would “be great news not only for Poland, but for all of Europe”.

Trzaskowski lost narrowly but now has again become the KO’s candidate in this year’s presidential election. 

The Polish opposition has long held that the EC sought to influence Polish politics, including by deliberately withholding billions of euros in funds from Poland to help remove PiS from power.

These post-pandemic funds were released within weeks of the centre-left government of current Prime Miinister Donald Tusk coming to power in 2023. 

The PiS, along with many other right-wing politicians in Europe and the US, have protested about the decision taken by Romania’s Constitutional Court to annul the results of last year’s presidential election.

That came after the first round was won by independent nationalist Călin Georgescu. It has been claimed that the decision was taken under pressure from the EC and then-US president Joe Biden, without clear evidence of alleged Russian interference. 

The PiS has complained about the current government withholding the party’s State funding despite a court order for it to be handed over.

It has also has expressed alarm that by refusing to do so, the government was challenging the legitimacy of the Supreme Court – the body that officially certifies Polish election results.

The Italian government has been ordered to compensate a group of migrants who were prevented from disembarking from the Diciotti ship in August 2018, following the directive of then-Interior Minister Matteo Salvini.

The decision was handed down by the Court of Cassation on Friday, which ruled that the government is liable for damages caused by the deprivation of freedom suffered by the migrants. The court referred the case back to the lower court to determine the amount of compensation.

Salvini had been investigated by the Palermo Court for alleged kidnapping in connection with the prolonged detention of migrants aboard the Italian coast guard vessel. The case was transferred to Catania for territorial jurisdiction, where prosecutors dismissed the charges. However, the Court of Ministers overruled this decision and sought Senate authorization to prosecute Salvini, which was ultimately thrown out in December last year.

The judges in their ruling emphasized that the refusal to allow migrants to disembark for 10 days could not be considered a political act beyond judicial review. Instead, they classified it as an administrative action subject to legal scrutiny under both national and international law.

Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni criticized the ruling, arguing that it established a “highly questionable principle of compensation” by presuming damage without concrete proof. She expressed frustration that taxpayer money would be used to compensate individuals who had attempted to enter Italy illegally. Meloni stated that such decisions alienate citizens from institutions, particularly when government resources are already limited.

“As a result of this decision, the government will have to compensate — with the money of honest Italian citizens who pay taxes — people who have attempted to enter Italy illegally, that is, by violating the law of the Italian state,” Meloni said in a post on X.

Le Sezioni Unite della Corte di Cassazione hanno condannato il governo a risarcire un gruppo di immigrati illegali trasportati dalla nave Diciotti perché il governo di allora, con Ministro dell’Interno Matteo Salvini, non li fece sbarcare immediatamente in Italia.

Lo fanno…

“As a result of this decision, the government will have to compensate — with the money of honest Italian citizens who pay taxes — people who have attempted to enter Italy illegally, that is, by violating the law of the Italian state,” Meloni said in a post on X.

“I don’t think these are the decisions that citizens bring together the institutions, and I confess that having to spend money for this, when we do not have enough resources to do everything that would be right to do, is very frustrating,” she added.

Deputy Prime Minister Antonio Tajani also opposed the ruling, stating that it undermines the government’s duty to defend national borders. He warned that if all irregular migrants sought similar compensation, it could significantly impact state finances.

Andrea Crippa, deputy secretary of Salvini’s co-governing Lega party, described the decision as “stunning” and insisted that Salvini had committed no crime. Crippa further suggested that left-wing judges should be held accountable instead of the general public.

The Diciotti ship was carrying 190 migrants rescued at sea. Under Salvini’s leadership in the Conte I government, the Italian interior ministry initially refused to grant immediate permission to disembark. However, 29 minors were ultimately allowed to land, followed by another 17 individuals for health reasons. Four women were also given permission but chose to remain on board.

The government eventually allowed the remaining migrants to disembark only after securing agreements for their redistribution across other European countries and Vatican-owned facilities. The decision aligned with the government’s hardline approach to curbing irregular migration and pressuring other EU nations to share the burden of the ongoing migrant crisis on Italy’s southern border.

The Italian judiciary and the current conservative government have long been at war over court rulings in relation to illegal immigration, with Salvini previously accusing certain judges of obstructing law enforcement.

Following his acquittal late last year, the Lega leader and deputy prime minister declared that Italy is “not a safe country anymore” due to what he referred to as “Communist judges” failing to implement the law.

“But we are not giving up!” he declared.

Just when you’d think progressivism can’t get any weirder, you inevitably meet some next-level irrationality. 

A (radically) new version of the popular board game Monopoly entitled ‘Pink’ will soon hit the shelves in Italy. Presented in its ready-for-distribution version in the Italian city of Bolzano on March 6, the game was developed by three Siena-based transfeminists, Valeria Cammarosano, Benedetta Francioni, and Letizia Vaccarella and is described as “gay-friendly” in the Italian press.

According to Italian news site Il Giornale, apparently, Pink (sometimes branded Pink*) is not just a game, but a complex project of activism (and indoctrination) that has been around at least since 2021, taken on campaign tours all over Italy in recent years.

The aim of the game, according to the self-styled “Pink dream team” is to counter gender inequality and discrimination, as well as to “challenge the patriarchy.”

The ultimate absurdity of these three posing as women and promoting the dismantling of the patriarchy is probably something we don’t need to point out to our readers. However, believe it or not, to date none of the articles covering the story online point this out. This is particularly striking ahead of International Women’s Day celebrated on March 8th. (The German Socialist women who in 1910 proposed marking the day as special and dedicated to women must be turning in their graves.)

One of the creators of the game, Letizia Vaccarella, explained in a television interview that the game is supposed to be

a metaphor of real life, in which the protagonists have to collaborate to multiply their resources and to have a normal life, one that we all would like to have. 

The cards that are part of the game include “Patriarchy cards”, representing the “voice of the sometimes violent, other times paternalistic and ignorant patriarchal society.” One such card is called #genderpaygap, stating: “My dear, I make more money than you because I am better at my job.” Another card, #misoginyinternalised, reads: “She has pushed out two babies and she wants to go out and dance with her girlfriends?” 

The game, of course, comes with a trigger warning, claiming Pink* 

speaks of all facets of sexism. In this game we tackle sexism, ableism, fattism, racism, ageism, lesbophobia, biphobia, transphobia, rape, and gender-based violence. We warn you that some of these topics may hurt your sensibilities.

The board game, the full title of which is Pink* A Game for Girls?, is officially recommended for people aged 14+.

In the wake of decades of mass migration policies, almost one million people speak little or no English in England.

In an apparent condemnation of the multicultural project foisted upon the country by both Westminster establishment parties, data from the UK Statistics Authority found that one in ten migrants in England are unable or can barely speak English.

The statistics, disclosed by the formerly governing Tory party, showed that 8.6 per cent of migrants over the age of 16 “cannot speak English well”. A further 1.4 per cent, or 137, 876 cannot speak the language at all, The Sun reported.

According to the report, just over half of migrants above 16 (51.6 per cent) said that English was their primary language, while 38.4 per cent claimed to be able to speak it well.

The data was gathered during the last census in 2021, likely indicating that the current number of people without English literacy in the country is much higher in reality, given the record waves of migrants which have come to the UK in the years since the census.

Indeed, net migration hit 872,000 in 2022 and 866,000 the following year, despite promises from the former “Conservative” government that they would cut immigration following Brexit.

In addition to the detrimental impacts on social cohesion of large swaths of the population being unable to communicate in the country’s mother tongue, mass migration has also placed a heavy strain on social services in Britain.

British political scientist Matt Goodwin, who was previously a critic of populist anti-mass migration movements before apparently deciding that may have been right all along, noted that some parts of England have exhausted nearly all of their socially provided housing to foreigners.

Citing census data, Goodwin pointed to areas such as St Matthews and Highfields in Leicester, in which over 80 per cent of people living in government housing were born abroad, mostly Muslims from the Middle East of South Asia.

Over four in ten in the area live in households with no adults who speak English as their main language.

In comments provided to Breitbart London, Reform UK Deputy Leader Richard Tice MP said of the language statistics: “After 14 years of total Tory failure on immigration, the chickens have come home to roost.

“Opening the floodgates to millions of new people has made integration into the British way of life almost impossible, and these statistics are testament to that.

“This is not only a cultural problem, but also piles extra pressure on public services, including the NHS, forcing them to fork out millions on translators which could be better spent on frontline staff.”

In addition to the cost of translators in social services like the National Health Service, branches of the NHS have also reportedly begun prioritising illegal migrants and failed asylum seekers, providing them with special “walk-in services” while many native Britons are forced onto weeks-long waiting lists.

American media—very much including conservative outlets—are reporting that Germany’s “conservative” party won the recent parliamentary elections.

Not quite. The winning party, with 28.5 percent of the vote, is the CDU—which stands for Christian Democratic Union—and is called the “conservative” option in Germany. But there is no longer anything Christian, nor conservative, about the CDU.

There is nothing conservative about free speech restrictions, which current CDU leader Friedrich Merz supports, rebuking U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance’s criticism of them.

Nor is there anything conservative about a party that allows the destruction and inhumanity of an invasion. It was a CDU chancellor, Angela Merkel, who in September 2015 opened the country’s borders, allowing in a million third world migrants, mostly young Muslim men, in less than four months.

Millions more have flooded the country since then, and the result has been an unmitigated catastrophe of daily rapes, assaults, and knife attacks, as well as Islamic terror attacks in ever shorter intervals. Jews are once again attacked on German streets—this time, not by Germans. No-go zones are firmly entrenched. All this in a country that was one of the safest countries in the world. All this with virtually zero opposition from CDU politicians, who looked the other way.

Yet even President Donald Trump, no fan of open borders or German-style censorship, praised the election results in Germany as a win for conservatives.

The truth is that the only party that wants to secure Germany’s borders and deport millions of migrants, as well as protect free speech, is the Alternative for Germany (AfD). American conservatives should recognize this domestic political reality about such a vital U.S. ally.

The German government, the mainstream media, and the vast majority of Germans demonize the AfD and its supporters as “Nazis”—a mindless and dastardly smear that makes as little sense in Germany as it does when employed against Trump supporters in the United States.

While it is millions of migrants, not AfD members, who make evermore cities and towns unsafe for Germans, those same Germans gather by the hundreds of thousands to protest “the Right.” From “Grannies Against the Right” to Antifa to average citizens, countless Germans have drunk the government and media Kool-Aid, swallowing the suicidal lie that the masses of migrants with explicit anti-Western values are an “enrichment” to German society; and the slander that the AfD hates immigrants and gay people (no matter that the head of the party, Alice Weidel, is in a civil partnership with a woman from Sri Lanka).

The AfD garnered just under 21 percent of the vote—with its strongest support in the former East Germany, which, according to mainstream propaganda, is a hotbed of racism and hatred. The “good” western Germans love few things more than denigrating those wretched easterners.

Merz, meanwhile, is on board with every other party in Germany in declaring a “firewall” against any kind of collaboration with the AfD.

Since the CDU won only a plurality, not a majority, however, it will need to enter into a coalition with other parties to form the next government. Merz has long talked tough on taking action against criminal migrants and Islamic terror. Were he serious, the AfD would be an obvious fit as a coalition partner—including on rolling back Germany’s de-industrialization programs rammed through by the climate-obsessed Greens in a coalition with Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s SPD.

The AfD, a party of common sense—few Germans would have had a problem with the party platform just 20 years ago—opposes socialism, government overreach, the Green Party’s “eco-dictatorship,” and the ongoing crackdown on free speech. If there is a conservative party in Germany, it is the AfD.

While on some issues, such as stopping Germany’s de-industrialization, the CDU is likely to be an improvement over socialist Scholz and today’s SPD, there is little daylight among the CDU, the SPD, the Greens, the Left party (communists), the free-market FDP (which did not receive enough votes to be part of the next parliament), and any other party on looking the other way on the single biggest threat to Germany’s continued existence—the flat-out untenable and growing security disaster throughout the entire country due to a refusal to secure the border, carry out mass deportations, and end the lavish government benefits for migrants.

After every terror attack, Chancellor Scholz claims that now, finally, there will be “consequences.” There never are, and no one should expect real consequences under Merz.

The CDU has declared no “firewall” against the Left party or the radical leftwing Greens or the socialist SPD. The only firewall exists against the AfD. Can a party not ruling out a coalition with radical leftists and communists—while condemning the only pro-industry, pro-capitalism, pro-free speech, and pro-German coalition option—really be conservative?

Alas, even American conservative media unthinkingly and without evidence parrot the fiction that the AfD is “far right.” Having witnessed the endless gaslighting and twisting of facts during the Biden years, American conservatives need to turn on their BS detectors and discern propaganda from reality.

New sentencing guidelines bastardise the principle of equality before the law, telling judges to make the ethnic and religious background of offenders a greater factor in deciding whether to jail them.

The Sentencing Council rules say that courts in England and Wales should “normally consider” ordering a pre-sentence report—presenting information that could mitigate against prison time—on an offender if they come from “an ethnic minority, cultural minority, and/or faith minority community” or “are transgender.”

This would make white, Christian, non-trans Britons more likely to be placed behind bars after committing an offence than their minority criminal peers, who could be given lesser community punishments or suspended sentences instead.

Reform MP Rupert Lowe framed this as the latest example of “anti-white racism,” which he said is “absolutely thriving in 2025.”

Young white men must be looking at the country and thinking—what have we done wrong? What did we do to deserve this? The answer lads, is NOTHING.

Young white men must be looking at the country and thinking – what have we done wrong? What did we do to deserve this? The answer lads, is NOTHING.

You're told that you're racist for feeling patriotic, far right for going to the gym, bigoted for having a joke, chauvinistic for…

— Rupert Lowe MP (@RupertLowe10) March 5, 2025

Reports on the guidelines have also prompted renewed criticism of two-tier justice under Keir Starmer, although Labour is doing its best to distance itself from the change.

Justice secretary Shabana Mahmood said she is writing to the Sentencing Council—an independent quango—to change the guidance, but she cannot make it do so. Tory leader Kemi Badenoch added that if the government minister needs to change the law so that she can force such a change, “the Conservatives will back her.”

In a stinging rebuke of this political farce, author and journalist Joanna Williams stressed that neither party can escape the blame for the environment in which such guidance is able to emerge in the first place. Williams wrote that however much they pay “lip-service to the importance of equality before the law now,”

Both Labour and Conservative governments have worked with a legal establishment that is determined to implement the exact opposite.

Unless it is stopped, the Sentencing Council guidance, unveiled this week, will come into force—appropriately enough—on April 1st. For supporters of equality before the law, this is no laughing matter.
