Immigration should be limited to levels compatible with genuine integration, social stability, infrastructure capacity and demographic continuity.
Europe should be a civilizational community of sovereign nations, not a centralized post-national state.
Languages, dialects, festivals, music, cuisine and craftsmanship should remain living parts of ordinary life rather than museum pieces.
Every question in this catalogue carries a position. Entries marked Derived follow the direction of the manifesto without their implementation being fixed, and several name the legal or treaty change they would require. Positions are revised as the movement decides; the version and date above say which text you are reading.
