Why Europeans are turning rightward.
In Great Britain, tens of thousands of people came out this summer to protest against Muslim criminals, and to bewail the failure of their government both to halt Muslim migration and to enforce its own deportation decisions.

In Germany, the anti-Muslim immigrant party, Alternative für Deutschland, has become the winner in the recent election in Thuringia, and the runner-up in Saxony, results that have sent the other parties into a panic, as AfD’s inexorable rise, despite the national media’s attempts to blacken its image as a “most far-right party since the Nazis,” continues.
