German migrant reception centres overflowing
Not only in Brandenburg and Saxony, but also in Baden-Württemberg, German migrant reception facilities are fully occupied. Those who offer the best social benefits also get the most applicants. This asylum package tourism is likely to intensify with the newly elected red-green government and its yellow appendage.

Migrant reception facilities are full, the CDU Migration State Secretary Siegfried Lorek told regional dailies Heilbronner Stimme and the Südkurier on Saturday. “We urgently need more space.” He added that the Corona restrictions in the asylum accommodation would last longer because the people arriving there were usually not vaccinated.
The number of refugees has recently increased significantly once again. According to Lorek, a total of 9 170 asylum seekers came to Baden-Württemberg in the first three quarters of 2021. Most of the migrants currently come from Syria and Afghanistan because of the political tensions.
According to Lorek, the country wants to expand its initial reception capacity by around 800 additional places this year. “Our goal is to create around 800 new initial reception places across the country this year,” he told the newspapers. In the long term, 400 new places should be created in Freiburg, and 1 650 new places should be added at several locations in Karlsruhe.
The Berlin Senate has announced that it would provide 1 200 new places for migrants by mid-November according to Social Senator Elke Breitenbach (Die Linke), cited by the German Press Agency (dpa).
“We recently had more than 1000 accesses a month,” said a spokeswoman for the State Office for Refugee Affairs (LAF) on Tuesday. In the past few months it has always been an average of 400 to 500. “We assume that this dynamic will continue.”
By September 2021, more migrants had already arrived than in the entire same period of the previous year. According to LAF figures, there are currently around 20 000 “refugees” in Berlin. Only 800 more places are currently available.
Meanwhile Poland has ordered more soldiers to the border with Belarus and 6000 of them are now in action in the region, said the Polish Defense Minister Mariusz Blaszczak on Tuesday, according to the television station ntv.
That is twice as many as there were at the weekend. The troops are tasked with supporting the border police in guarding the border installations. According to Blaszczak, there were 612 illegal entry attempts on Monday alone.
The President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, warned on Tuesday in Strasbourg that she would act to defend the “common values” of the EU, after the decision of the Polish constitutional court challenging the primacy of European law. “We will not allow our common values to be endangered. The Commission will act,” she declared before the European Parliament in the presence of Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki.

NOAA Predicts Zero Sunspots for Almost the Whole 2030s
CLIMATEThe United States' government scientific organization, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), predicts zero sunspots from 2031 to 2040. This is an extreme situation that has not occurred in as long as humanity has been counting sunspots, and it leads us into uncharted territory in terms of our solar system. However, this prediction aligns with the warnings of the world-renowned solar researcher Valentina Zharkova for many years, who indicated in 2019 various signs of this catastrophic phenomenon, including the extreme hailstorms we have seen in Europe and the world this summer. The forecast and various observations this year give cause for very significant concern. In this unique analysis, Free West Media explains why.
European Nationalist Parties Forge Cooperation Ahead of EU Elections
EUROPEAN ELECTIONSOn Saturday, August 26, representatives of six European nationalist parties gathered in Budapest. The meeting was initiated by the Hungarian party Mi Hazánk and took place in the national parliament. Representatives of the parties signed a joint declaration that not only reaffirms the parties' friendship but also their unity on a range of complex political issues. A surprisingly clear and radical manifesto was established. The hope is that this cooperation will lead to success in the EU elections and eventually result in the formation of a group in the European Parliament. For Swedish nationalism, this meeting marks a success as Sweden, for the first time, has a party represented in a leading nationalist cooperation in Europe. Free West Media was present at this historic event.

Swedish Weapon Takes Down Russia’s Best Attack Helicopter

Strong Confidence in German AfD
Alternative for Germany (AfD) held a party conference on July 29-30 to select candidates for the upcoming EU election next year. EU Parliament member Maximilian Krah, belonging to the party's more radical, ethnonationalist faction, was appointed as the top candidate. The party's two spokespersons delivered powerful speeches criticizing the EU's failed migration policy and trade sanctions that isolate Europe and Germany from the rest of the world. They argued that it's time for the EU to return a significant portion of its power to national parliaments. However, they have dropped the demand for Germany to exit the EU.
