France, Poland and Austria among nine countries where radical rightwing parties predicted to finish first
Polling in all 27 EU member states, combined with modelling of how national parties performed in past European parliament elections, shows radical right parties are on course to finish first in nine countries including Austria, France and Poland.
Projected second- or third-place finishes in another nine countries, including Germany, Spain, Portugal and Sweden, could for the first time produce a majority rightwing coalition in the parliament of Christian Democrats, conservatives and radical right MEPs.
The authors called on policymakers to examine the trends that are driving current voting patterns in Europe and to develop clear narratives that address the necessity of a global Europe in an increasingly fraught and dangerous geopolitical climate.
Man splitting up the EU would be one of the most insane, shooting-your-own-dick-off geopolitical blunders in all of modern history. Just ridiculously fucking stupid.
I think a fair number of those shitlords are being paid off by certain parties that have a vested interest in the dissolution of the EU and NATO, for that matter.
If anything the EU needs to band closer together and start doing something resembling federalization if they want to remain truly relevant going forward. The world is a fucking mess right now.
