BRENDAN O’NEILL: The invasion of Ceuta must be the final nail in the coffin of globalism. “For make no mistake – our rulers’ abandonment of our borders is a direct attack on us. They’re essentially saying there is nothing about the Spanish way of life or the British way of life that is worth defending. Your country, your communities, your history, your citizenship, your welfare state – it is all so spectacularly worthless that it isn’t even worth putting a fence around it to protect it from people from foreign lands. What the globalist elites depict as kindness to foreigners is in truth a savage assault on the rights and dignity of citizens. Enough is enough. Stop the boats. Fortify the borders. Save nationhood from these nihilists disguised as altruists.”

I HAVE WARNED ABOUT THIS TOO:
In 2017 I watched as members of the DSA picked off well liked, competent local Democrat office holders in Western PA in low turnout out primary contests where Republicans had zero chances of winning in a general; reporting their formula to take over was working & would spread. https://t.co/AqYPN8CTGR
