Politics in Europe is greatly affected by the influence of Islam, either to accommodate it or to confront it.
Bank of England drops Churchill from banknotes, as he promotes a ‘backward-looking vision of the UK’
Britain’s civilizational suicide is taking place, as you might expect, under the politest of veneers. These affairs don’t have to be messy and loud, now, do they? Every act of cultural surrender and self-abnegation is taking place with the most rational of explanations. And so as that once green and pleasant land goes gentle into that good night, it is comforted by the thought that as its demise approached, it never once lapsed into anything so tasteless as “racism,” “Islamophobia,” or a desire to preserve (heaven forfend!) its own history, heritage, and national character.
The latest polite self-erasure of Britain comes from the venerable Bank of England itself, which has unveiled a grand plan to remove images of national heroes such as Winston Churchill from the nation’s currency. After all, with Britain in the process of denying and setting aside all that it has ever been or aspired to be, it simply won’t do to have British heroes on British banknotes.
The lesson of this is clear: There are no British heroes. There are heroes of Islam, and of Pakistan, and their images would have replaced those of the British heroes on the British banknotes were it not for the fact that Islam prohibits such images, so as to avoid the temptation to idolatry. And so a stopgap measure has been decided upon instead.
Bank of England axed Churchill, Turing, and Austen from notes after being told they were ‘not representative of the UK’s cultural and natural diversity'
by Olivia Allhusen, Daily Mail, June 6, 2026:
The Bank of England dropped Winston Churchill and other famous Britons from future banknotes after research warned that historical figures could be seen as ‘elitist and divisive’, it has emerged.
Charles, are you reading this?
Documents show officials were advised that figures including wartime leader Churchill, codebreaker Alan Turing and novelist Jane Austen were viewed by some as ‘not representative of the UK’s cultural and natural diversity’.
The research, carried out by market consultancy Savanta in October last year, suggested portraits of notable Britons risked promoting a ‘backward-looking vision of the UK’ that could prove divisive.
Instead, researchers recommended nature-themed designs, arguing that images of wildlife and the natural world would be less controversial and more broadly appealing, The Telegraph reports.
The findings were delivered months before the Bank announced plans to replace historical figures on the next generation of banknotes with images celebrating nature.
The move will mark the end of a tradition that has seen prominent Britons appear alongside the monarch on banknotes for more than 50 years.
The Bank has maintained that the decision was driven primarily by security concerns and public preference rather than the Savanta report.
Writing in The Telegraph this week, Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey said the organisation’s ‘foremost objective’ was maintaining the security of banknotes and combating increasingly sophisticated counterfeiting techniques….
Churchill, Alan Turing, Jane Austen. What's wrong with those three heroes? Well, Alan Turing was gay, Jane Austen was a woman, and Churchill sometimes spoke, or wrote words like the following about Islam:
I have tried to gild war, and to solace myself for the loss of dear and gallant friends, with the thought that a soldier’s death for a cause that he believes in will count for much, whatever may be beyond this world. But there was nothing dulce et decorum (“It is sweet and fitting to die for one's country.”) about the Dervish dead. Nothing of the dignity of unconquerable manhood. All was filthy corruption. Yet these were as brave men as ever walked the earth..... —The River War, 1899 (I: 220-21)
Roberto Vannacci and His Party Futuro Nazionale
Roberto Vannacci, described formulaically as “far-right,” is an Italian general turned politician. He has just announced he has left La Lega, a right-wing party that Matteo Salvini heads, in order to form his own party, Futuro Nazionale (National Future). Right out of the gate, his party is polling at 4%, and is gaining vertiginously in popularity, taking votes away from both La Lega and Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s right-wing party Fratelli d’Italia. His anti-Islam message is being rapturously received by large crowds. In the next election, Meloni may have to enter into a coalition with Vannacci’s party. And in exchange for his support, Meloni will have to adopt even more stringent anti-Muslim-immigrant measures than she has until now. More on the rise of Robert Vannacci can be found here:
Former General’s New Rightwing Party Rocks Italy, Becomes a Stone in PM Meloni’s Path to Reelection
by Paul Serran, Gateway Pundit, June 8, 2026:
Futuro Nazionale’s polling is still modest, but enough to throw the upcomig [sic] election into a turmoil.
Former General Roberto Vannacci has created a new ‘far-right’ party, called Futuro Nazionale, and the movement has become a real problem for Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.
Reuters reported:
“Just four months after deserting Meloni’s coalition ally, the League party, the former general says he has attracted almost 100,000 paying members to his new movement, which is polling at around 4% and rising.
That may sound modest, but in a tight election due next year it could be enough to decide whether Meloni wins a second term, leaving her with a difficult conundrum – should she embrace him, and risk scaring away her more moderate supporters, or shun him, and hope that his momentum will fade.”
Vannacci has become known for his uncompromising anti-EU views, while accusing Meloni and her allies of ‘going soft’….
Vannacci’s hostility to the EU reflects his anger at the EU assigning to its members a quota of migrants that each country must take in; he believes, like the former prime minister of Hungary, Viktor Orban, that the EU has no business interfering with what should be the sole prerogative of the nation-state.
Vannacci’s sudden appearance as the head of a new party, one based on a single issue, the large and increasing presence of Muslims in Italy, which he says fills him with alarm, is one more sign that in Europe more people have awakened to the Muslim demographic threat. When he says “I don’t want to wake up tomorrow to see crowds of people praying to Allah in Milan’s Piazza del Duomo. Italian schools must not close for Ramadan, and I don’t want mosques in schools,” he is expressing not just his own fears, but those of millions of his countrymen. Let us hope Meloni, to stay in power at the head of a coalition including Fratelli d’Italia and Futuro Nationale, will adopt his hardline views on Islam and on those whom Oriana Fallaci, that brilliant left-wing journalist, scathingly described as “the sons of Allah.”
