>The centre-right is set to remain the biggest group in the EU legislature after elections in May that should also show a surge in seats for the far-right, a survey by the European Parliament showed on Monday.
>The European People’s Party (EPP), to which Merkel belongs, would take 183 of the 705 seats, or 26 percent, in the new chamber. That is down from 29 percent at present
>That would outstrip the 135 seats for the centre-left Socialists and Democrats, whose share would drop six points to 19 percent
>The two far-right eurosceptic groups among the eight in the current parliament would see their share rise to 14 percent from 10 percent, despite the loss of Brexit campaigners the UK Independence Party. That reflects gains for Italy’s League, adding 21 seats, Germany’s AfD, gaining 11, and Marine Le Pen’s French National Rally, which would add six seats if polls hold.
Who are you voting for in the upcoming EU elections?
this is literally nothing compared to the last one
the threshold in Italy is 4%
Ethan King
I wouldn`t say commies they are globalists. They want to erase all kinds od differences between ethnicities and they want to eventually eliminate the concept of nation state in favor of supranational organizations
Chase Green
If you went through all of them and asked what they thought of Carl Marx, I doubt you'd get anything but positive opinions.
Ian Powell
>Who are you voting for in the upcoming EU elections?
Mestari
Brandon Scott
>this is literally nothing compared to the last one We of course, it's just starting.
>the threshold in Italy is 4% That is completely irrelevant, since these are european elections.
Ian Ward
Hope the social democrates lose even more, in Germany they are very low at the moment, sadly our Green party gained most o their frustrated voters
Christian Ramirez
but don`t we have this threshold for euro elections as well?
Colton Ortiz
I hear the AfD has not been doing well on polls. Why?
Camden Nelson
The right will never gain leftist votes. They need to be marginalized and, when possible, denied voting rights.
Benjamin Gutierrez
Mate, those Seats simply transferred to the EPP (wich is basically Merkel) and the socialist and greens. All of those groups are europhiles in your biased eyes.
The extreme right does What the extreme right Always does. Devour each other and only each other.
The European parlement is highly technocratic. Do not expect upsets within the instituion.
Not mention that the Italiaan lega is basically advancing the Europeaan project by effectively forming a group on the European level to do Europeaan politics.
It is hilarious nationalists are making Europeaan parties.
Kevin Thomas
They are under semi-surveillance of the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution now
Grayson Robinson
don`t say never Our right-wing parties gained substantial amount of leftist voters. Always target the white working class.
Dominic Bennett
I don't know. No, actual goals besides immigration. Seems like a sure fire way to win right? When Frauke left the part basically lost it's possibility to win. The party is wallowing in the extreme now.
Some People like the immigration messages but don't want to hate others wich is basically now the afd supporters way of life.
Isaiah Powell
That's because 5star was an option. The 5star wasnt right it's extreme left at it's inception.
And no not the social justice left wich do not politically exist on the spectrum. Anyway but the Economic left.
Xavier Thomas
this. Rightwingers fucked us with the whole internet thing. I'm probably gonna vote for the pirates
Jack Clark
Yes but many on the economic left still had voted for the social democratic parties last elections. I see it completely possible to turn these voters to the right.
>The European Parliament adopted a resolution on 11 November 2015 based on a legislative initiative report on the reform of the electoral law of the EU. Among the changes was a measure on thresholds. >Following the Parliament’s consent, the Council adopted the decision on 13 July 2018. Ok nevermind, seems like they added it.
Ryder Foster
We should have reagular threads about these upcoming elections. If the legit right wing parties get big enough they can fuck up the regular functions of the EU.
Nicholas Walker
I was thinking about creating italypol generals but I think it`s still too early, still 3 months away the threads will be quite empty
