GRAPEVINE, Texas—Europe is going to need a “Trump-style revolution” to turn back the tide of illegal immigration that has changed the face of Europe, according to two former prime ministers.

Former British Prime Minister​ Liz Truss told those attending the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) that an elite class in the UK and Europe wants to destroy Western civilization.

​“There has been a globalist movement,” she said. “They captured the institutions, universities, mainstream media, corporate sector, and bureaucracy. They believe in open borders.”

​Truss said the conservative party in Britain didn’t do enough to stop the globalists who support illegal immigrants and transgender ideology, and don’t believe that the family is important.

​Most of the British people don’t like these policies, she said. They want to live in a Christian country, own homes and cars, and live in freedom.

​British conservatives did not reverse the diversity, equity, and inclusion changes made to their constitution, which, Truss said, have enabled Islamism to expand.

​“They don’t want their country taken over,” she said of native Britons. “Now I’ve called for a Trump-style revolution,”

Former Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said his country has been attacked by the European Union for closing its borders to mass migration.

​In 2021, Russian ally Belarus arranged for thousands of migrants from the Middle East and Africa to be transported to Minsk, Belarus. Authorities then forced them toward the Polish and Lithuanian border to create a crisis.

“They tried to push them to Poland,” Morawiecki said. “I decided to build a physical barrier—a wall.”

​Adopting a tactic from U.S. President Donald Trump’s playbook enabled Poland to keep illegal immigrants out, Morawiecki said. European bureaucrats want sovereign nations to comply and permit large-scale migration, he said.

​The new EU Pact on Migration and Asylum will enter into force this summer. It attempts to make countries in Europe accept up to 30,000 refugees per year; otherwise, they must pay for the relocation of asylum seekers.

​Poland has refused to take part in the pact, saying it has already taken in Ukrainian refugees.

​Under the Biden administration, the U.S. Agency for International Development provided funding to nongovernmental organizations operating in Poland, including groups advocating migrant rights.

Assimilation of immigrants is lacking in Britain, Truss said. She noted the systematic grooming and rape of thousands of young English girls, mainly by British men of Pakistani heritage, that was covered up by authorities who didn’t want to be called racist.

​Truss said free speech is restricted for British citizens who discuss the incidents and immigration on social media, and noted that people have been jailed for speaking out.

​“We now have a government that is trying to introduce a definition of Islamophobia and so-called anti-Muslim hatred, so you won’t even be able to talk about it,” she said.

Now the British government believes that someone from Somalia has the same rights in the UK as someone from the UK, Truss said, and British leaders on the left have been “ruthless” in changing the legal system, appointing judges, regulating the media, and suppressing free speech to achieve their goals.

​Truss said Trump should do everything in his power to get rid of left-wing ideologies that are embedded in the government bureaucracy and media.

​She warned that the current situation in the UK will soon affect the United States as well, saying that the UK now needs the United States’ assistance to fight back against “globalists.”

​“We are at war with those people. We’re in a war for the future of Western civilization,” Truss said.

“Please help us fight these forces in Europe. Because if you don’t help us, the people in Europe, they’ll come for you next.”

​Morawiecki added that “left-wing forces” want to push the United States out of Europe to diminish its influence. ​He called for Republicans and conservatives around the world to rally against what he refers to as the globalist agenda.

​Europe and the United States, with their common heritage of Christianity and Western culture, should work together to strengthen their bonds and economic power, he said.

​“We [would] be in a position to impose our will on others, rather than only defend our fences and our wall,” Morawiecki said.
