Some Champion European Politicians to Be Aware Of
These important leaders are going against the flow:
While most Western nations have gone down the tubes real fast, with woke wonders in government, the media, and the key institutions, some have managed to buck the trend and say no to the passing madness. Consider some key Europeans in this regard.
Some are heads of state, while others are politicians fighting the good fight. Some are well known, while others are not – at least not so far. Some are younger and some are older. Some are Christians and some are not. Here are six of them that are worth noting:
Nigel Farage
The leader of Reform UK is going from strength to strength in the polls, and it seems every time another local election is held, his party is leading the pack, with Labour and even the Conservatives trailing far behind. If all this continues, he will be a shoo-in for the next federal election in six months’ time.
Farage of course is remembered for his work in bringing about Brexit back in 2016. See one of my articles on this here: https://billmuehlenberg.com/2016/06/24/brexit-the-fallout/
He continues to resist the mass importation of those not willing to assimilate into Britain. Indeed, just today he sent a letter to the British Home Secretary about Starmer letting in a well-known Islamist radical. He said in part:
I am writing to you to express my deep concern about the recent return of British-Egyptian activist Alaa Abd el-Fattah to the United Kingdom following his detention in Egypt. On Friday, the Prime Minister expressed his “delight” at el-Fattah’s return, claiming his case had been a “top priority” for the government, and thanked President Sisi for his pardon.
Given Mr el-Fattah’s history of vile public declarations on social media, this was an extraordinary error of judgment. For example, in 2010 he wrote, “I consider killing any colonialists and especially [sic] Zionists heroic, we need to kill more of them.” That same year he referred to the British as “dogs and monkeys”. The following year he suggested that “police are not human, they don’t have rights, we should just kill them all”, and has also tweeted in support of suicide bombings….
It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of Mr el-Fattah should not be allowed into the UK. As Home Secretary, it is within your power to revoke his citizenship and order his deportation. I strongly urge you to do so.
Giorgia Meloni
The 48-year-old has been Prime Minister of Italy since 2022. I wrote up this champion back then: https://billmuehlenberg.com/2022/09/27/giorgia-meloni-and-hope-for-italy/
She proudly says, “We defend God, country, and family”. During the 2024 Paris Olympics when men were allowed to beat up women, she said this: “I think that athletes who have male genetic characteristics should not be admitted to women’s competitions … from my point of view it was not an even contest.”
She keeps on standing up for Christian values. Earlier this year she said this in a powerful speech: “No to LGBTQ lobbies, no to Islamist violence, no to mass migration! The WEST needs to Wake up!” She has refused to recognise Palestine as a sovereign state and has far more guts and principle than Starmer, Macron, and most other European leaders combined. As one write-up about her states:
Giorgia Meloni’s recent statement has sparked intense global debate, thrusting Italy into the center of international attention. In a direct and unapologetic speech, the Italian prime minister rejected what she described as the LGBT lobby, condemned Islamic violence, and opposed mass immigration. In simple terms, Meloni drew firm red lines on culture, national security, and border control.
Unlike previous leaders who often softened their language, this stance was clear and assertive, signaling a decisive shift in tone and policy direction. The statement carries significant implications, as it could influence future laws, social policy, and Italy’s long-term trajectory. Analysts suggest these positions may lead to stricter immigration measures and tougher national security policies. Early reactions indicate strong domestic support, alongside sharp criticism from international organizations and advocacy groups.
Viktor Orbán
Hungary’s 61-year-old prime minister is a champion of faith, family and freedom. Back in 2018 I said this about him:
Under his recent leadership he has steered the country in a nationalist, pro-family direction, cracking down on easy immigration, Islam, and the globalist crusade. In all this he stands strongly against the agenda of another famous Hungarian: George Soros. We can see his strong emphasis on faith and nation clearly laid out in a speech he gave a week ago…. https://billmuehlenberg.com/2018/08/04/hungary-and-orban-hope-for-the-west/
One recent post about him stated this:
Viktor Orbán made it official: “The mother is a woman, the father is a man. Leave our children alone! Period.” The Prime Minister of Hungary banned LGBT propaganda in schools, stating that the education of children belongs to the parents, not to ideologies. A decision that shakes Europe and challenges the progressive agenda. While many governments give in, Hungary sets boundaries. He also isn’t taking in so called “immigrants” who will eventually take over his country and its culture!
Former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss said this about him and some other leaders when discussing today’s Democrats:
We’re not facing ordinary social democrats who simply want higher taxes and more government spending. We’re dealing with people whose goal is the destruction of Western civilization itself. You can’t negotiate with that. And this is what Donald Trump understands—perhaps better than anyone else in the Western world. Others have confronted the deep state in their own countries—leaders like Viktor Orbán, Bukele, or Milei—but Trump, to me, provides the clearest playbook for how to respond.
Geert Wilders
Geert is a Dutch politician who founded and has led the Party for Freedom since 2006. He has long spoken out against unchecked immigration, Islam and the EU. The 62-year-old told his story in the 2012 book, Marked for Death. As he said there:
Today, for the third time in history, Islam is waging an offensive to conquer Europe. For the first time, however, it is threatening the continent from within. The doctrine of immigration is Islam’s Trojan horse, paving the way for jihad. From the inside, Islam is now eating its way out while many Westerners look on helplessly. https://billmuehlenberg.com/2012/06/23/a-review-of-marked-for-death-by-geert-wilders/
He has long been under 24/7 protection, and just recently he was reported to have been targeted by a Belgium terror plot:
Three young men were arrested in Belgium on Thursday after investigators discovered a homemade explosive which the suspects were reportedly planning to attach to a drone to carry out the attack. Prosecutors said the police raids were part of an investigation into “attempted terrorist murder and participation in the activities of a terrorist group.” They didn’t identify the politicians who might have been targeted, but Belgian government ministers identified Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever as one target.
Wilders had cancelled an appearance at an election debate with other political leaders following the reports. Later, he posted on X that the Dutch National Coordinator for Counter-Terrorism and Safety (NCTV) confirmed to him he was one of the targets of the suspected plot. https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2025/10/11/dutch-far-right-geert-wilder-suspends-campaign-activities-after-report-of-belgian-terror-c
Ebba Busch
Sweden’s Deputy Prime Minister is Ebba Busch. The 38-year-old has been standing strong of late in defending her country over against the mass migration of those who refuse to accept the beliefs and culture of Sweden. As she said earlier this year: “Israel is doing good for the entire world when it tries to neutralize Hamas and dismantle it.”
And she also said this: “Islam must adapt to Swedish values. Muslims who do not integrate must leave the country. Honor killings, beheadings, stoning of women, and Sharia law have no place here in Sweden.”
One report said this:
Sweden’s Deputy Prime Minister, Ebba Busch, has drawn significant attention after making remarks suggesting that Islam and its followers must adapt to Swedish values in order to be welcome in the country. In simpler terms, she argues that anyone living in Sweden should accept core national principles and cultural expectations. Her comments stand out for being direct and uncompromising, going further than typical discussions about integration.
This issue is important because it connects religion, migration, and national identity. Supporters believe that setting clear expectations helps social cohesion and stability, while critics argue that such comments could stigmatize Muslim communities, deepen division, and escalate political tension. Many observers see the debate as part of a much larger European discussion on immigration, cultural adaptation, and social identity.
Afroditi Latinopoulou
At just 34 years of age, the conservative Greek politician is leader of the Voice of Reason party. She was elected as a Member of the European Parliament in 2024. One Greek news site says this about her:
Her Thracian heritage, strong family ties to the Church, and upbringing in rural Greece have deeply shaped Afroditi Latinopoulou’s political values. Drawing from her diverse background in sports, law, and politics, she emphasizes principles such as religion, family, and national identity. She positions herself as a defender of traditional values within the contemporary euroskeptic political landscape. https://greekcitytimes.com/2025/08/24/afroditi-latinopoulou-origins-family-tennis-politics/
M. A. Rothman recently said this about her:
Greek Member of the European Parliament Afroditi Latinopoulou didn’t mince words: ‘It’s unrecognizable. Europe has been filled with men who hate us in the name of Allah.’
She calls illegal immigration a well-orchestrated business – enriching organizers while hollowing out nations.
Her claim: Europe is being deliberately Islamised, with Germany and France leading the pressure campaign while frontline countries absorb the consequences.
And she doesn’t talk in euphemisms.
She talks about cities turning into ghettos.
She talks about taxpayers footing the bill.
She talks about rape and killing committed in the name of Allah.
Her proposed solutions are blunt:
-No benefits for illegal entrants
-No asylum for border violators
-Arrest and deportation
-Stop subsidized housing
She points to Hungary and Poland as the model — nations that treat border violations as exactly that: violations.
As she said in a CPAC Hungary speech in Budapest back in May:
Hungary is fortunate to have a visionary leader, Viktor Orbán, who is guiding the nation on the path of virtue and freedom. A leader who did not hesitate to confront the EU elite to protect his country. That is why today you see a Hungary that is clean, without ghettos, without [the] woke agenda. You see a Hungary being Hungarian. Hungary chose sovereignty, and did so with courage. It’s sent a powerful message: The definition of who we are is ours to give. And in Europe, we need more Orbáns and fewer Macrons. https://www.hungarianconservative.com/articles/culture_society/afroditi-latinopoulou-we-need-more-orbans-fewer-macrons/
With these six (and a number of others that could be named), there may yet be hope for Europe – the most secular, woke and godless continent on the planet. If these champs can stand strong for family and faith and love of country – rightly understood – and work against the globalist bureaucrats in Brussels and Geneva, then perhaps we can see Europe return to what made it great: its Judeo-Christian roots.
