LVIV CHRISTMAS TOURS
Traditions matter, and it's not only about three kings and a crib. The fastest way to destroy any country is to erode the traditions of that country and replace them wth customs imported from other countries.
Some observers rightfully ask why migrants of different nationalities, cultures and customs can't coexist with an indigenous population in a new, civilized country, ergo a European country.
The answer? Most of them are Muslims and that means exposure to political-religious Islam. While we're here, let's not forget that Muslims have intercourse with close relatives and some marry children.
"Islamism" is incompatible with European (and British) values and traditions. It is incompatible with everyone who disagrees with, or in my case, mocks the insane refrain "Allahu akbar".
Where, exactly, is Islam compatible outside two dozen Arabic hellholes masquerading as countries? Add lack of respect for women and animal cruelty to all of that.
Islamism is a system designed to destroy democracy in countries where democracy is the foundation stone and fabric of society.
Just look at the societal degradation in British towns and cities caused by decades of unchecked male migration from Islamic countries.
Islamism is tearing down traditions all over Europe and replacing them with halal, hijabs, burqas and mosques that shelter radical imams. Islam in the UK (Wikipedia) shows that my country has become an ethnic swamp.
I am a British citizen who left the United Kingdom in 2003 because I predicted the rise of Islamism early doors. I made a move to get as far way from it as possible and for the most part, I succeeded.
I know better than most how our traditions have been eroded by living in countries where traditions are upheld. Poland and Ukraine, for example.
What I don't understand is why my government and European governments are doing nothing about it.
Why do they welcome the pernicious invasion of male migrants from Islamic countries? Cheap labour to boost GDP? Please. Cut the bullshit.
The culture of my country has been nigh on destroyed, it is close to collapse and there is a real risk of absolute societal destruction.
Add the radical left, LGBTQ, Palestine flag wavers, Socialist Workers Party types, Counterfire, and the Communist Party of Great Britain (Provisional Central Committee) rent-a-mob. There's the problem writ large. It's inconceivable that such people cannot accept the fact that Hamas militants and LGBTQers in the same room would not end well.
Let's discuss Christmas. My background is Roman Catholic, and my education Jesuit, but that was a long time ago. It's important to believe in oneself, without distractions and unrealistic hopefulness.
In much of Western Europe, Christian symbology in December is the accepted norm. Given that some it originates from Paganism and the arcane, a very interesting history emerges.
For many years, Christmas markets in European towns and cities have been brutalized by imports and radicals. What does this mean?
Once upon a time in a Christmas market near you, real local traders sold Christmas trees, handmade cards and decorations, homemade festive foods and drink. Times have changed.
Is there a demonstrable relationship between male migration to the United Kingdom and Europe from Islamic countries, wider Islamism, and the death of Christmas markets in our towns and cities? Yes.
Christmas markets in Germany are routinely targeted by Islamic extremists AND anti-Islam extremists.
Berlin 2016: 12 dead, 56 injured, Tunisian Islamic asylum seeker; Magdeburg 2024: 6 dead, 323 injured, Saudi anti-Islam psychiatrist. There have been other attacks on Christmas markets in Europe.
But this is only one sordid page of an unpleasant and convoluted chapter in a story that is still being written.
Before moving to Lviv I lived in Rome. If you know anything about Rome you'll have heard of the famous square called Piazza Navona, it's where the biggest Christmas market in Rome can be found.
Some time around 2006, the demographic of Christmas market traders on Piazza Navona changed from Italians selling traditional foods and handmade gifts to Pakis and Bangladeshis selling candy floss, balloons, and more or less anything Chinese that fluoresces.
Wanton destruction of tradition, greed bordering on avarice, none of which come close to acts of terrorism but are still too close for comfort.
Woe betide this Hell ever happening to our Christmas market on Rynok Square. It won't, of course, but that it's becoming more common in European towns and cities at Christmas is real cause for concern.
The line will likely stop at the border with Germany. Our sensible Polish neighbours enforce a zero tolerance policy towards male migrants from Islamic countries.
At a time of year when respect for tradition matters most, Lviv Christmas market is the safest place on earth.
Read about why the Christmas market in Lviv is such a special place and worth a trip to Lviv in December for traditional Lviv Christmas tours with locals.
