Remigration is the name given to a white nationalist plan to ethnically cleanse Western countries of non-white people.
It's been referred to in numerous official US government statements, including some made by Donald Trump.

This is the return of the Royal Prerogative to Irish law, not seen since the Irish Supreme Court killed it in the 1960s.
