The European Commission has published results for their ‘Standard Eurobarometer’ poll for Autumn 2017, with citizens of EU member states and candidate nations citing immigration and terrorism as the top issues facing the continent.

In total, 34 countries or territories participated in the survey, and the outcome serves as a damning indictment of open borders, ‘refugee’ resettlement, and the importation of an Islamic population which is transforming local cultures in addition to fueling a rise in crime and mass-casualty jihad attacks.

“Immigration and terrorism are clearly the leading concerns at EU level: at 39% and 38% respectively, both items are mentioned more than twice as often as any other issues,” the report states. “Though the increase is limited, immigration has gained ground for the first time since autumn 2015.”

Respondents from Estonia, Hungary, and the Czech Republic felt the most strongly about how immigration is affecting Europe, and a total of 14 EU member states listed immigration as their top concern – up from seven countries in the same poll just six months before.

Swedes, who are living through an often violent and traumatizing transformation of their once-idyllic Nordic nation, also list immigration as the most pressing issue facing the continent.

At a national level, 40% of Germans responded that immigration is their top concern. According to Germany’s Federal Statistics Office, the immigrant population has exploded under the leadership of Angela Merkel, rising 8.5% in 2016 to a high of 18.6 million – due in large part to an influx of over one million migrants and ‘refugees’ arriving in the span of just two years.

“Around 2.3 million people in Germany have family links to the Middle East, a rise of almost 51 percent since 2011, and around 740,000 people have African origins, an increase of 46 percent since 2011,” reports Reuters.

The survey results should not come as a surprise to anyone paying attention to the shifting political climate across Europe. While the globalist media and their ilk continue to deride populist-nationalist factions as the ‘extreme far right,’ it is clear that public support for border security, immigration controls, and a rejection of the Islamization of Europe is not just mainstream, but overwhelmingly so.

A survey conducted earlier this year by Chatham House of over 10,000 residents of 10 European countries revealed that 55% of respondents want an end to Islamic immigration, while a mere 20% support its continuation – and with good reason. A study recently released by the Pew Research Center projects that the Muslim populations of some European countries could reach 20% by 2050, with Sweden potentially eclipsing a shocking 30%.

With the issue of immigration front and center, political parties and candidates who support border controls and oppose the current policies being set forth by Brussels are dominating elections and gaining substantial momentum across Europe, and that trend is likely to continue for years to come.
