In a significant diplomatic intervention, US Vice President JD Vance has openly praised the recent âUnite the Kingdomâ rally in London, encouraging British citizens who oppose mass immigration to âkeep on goingâ and defending their right to protect their culture. Vanceâs comments, made during a White House press briefing, stand in stark contrast to the rhetoric of UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, highlighting a growing ideological divide between the current US and UK administrations on the issue of border control and national identity.
JD VANCE ADDRESSES UK PROTESTS During a press briefing, Vice President Vance was asked by a reporter from Gateway Pundit about his message for âglobalist European leadersâ following the massive âUnite the Kingdomâ rally in London, which the reporter characterized as a protest against âmass illegal immigration and the replacement of British cultureâ .
Vance used the question to launch a broad critique of Western immigration policies, blaming âWall Street bankers, corporate lobbyists, and government officialsâ for pushing a narrative that Western societies need âmore and more cheap laborâ .
Vance explicitly rejected the idea that prosperity is generated by âbring[ing] in millions and millions of unvetted people and drop[ping] them into your neighborhoods,â and then directed his message specifically to the UK protesters.
âTo everybody in the UK who rejects that idea, Iâd encourage them to just keep on going,â Vance stated from the podium. âItâs okay to want to defend your culture. Itâs okay to want to live in a safe neighborhood. Itâs okay to want your job to go to yourself and your neighbors⊠It is reasonable for the people in Western societies to want to control who comes into their country and who doesnât.â .
He further criticized the media for attempting to persuade the public that protecting borders is âsomehow racist,â arguing that low-wage immigration primarily harms lower-income minority communities in both the US and the UK .
