Right-Wing Party Declared Illegal in Belgium

In a nasty little example of what the Left would like to do to anyone that

refuses to toe the PC line, a Belgian court has just ruled Vlaams Blok

“racist,” effectively making

the party illegal.

Vlaams Blok is the most popular party in Flanders (the Flemish-speaking part

of Belgium). Last June they got almost a quarter of the votes in regional

elections. The Belgian establishment hates them, however, since they have

at various times advocated (a) the secession of Flanders from Belgium, (b)

the repatriation of non-European immigrants.

The lights are going out all over Europe…
