DISGUSTING aren’t they? What DISGUSTING PEOPLE!

Bloody GERMAN ZOOMERS

 

[Penelope]

Were either of S!sters to BLAME for this result?

 

[VoR]

Far right massively ahead in France too

 

[Tisch]

Were either of S!sters to BLAME for this result?

To think Little Susan probably *IS* one of those pollees!!

 

[jivafox]

Welcome to HELL Europe! Can’t believe they looked at us and thought “we would like some of that.”

 

[ILL ADVISED]

Turnout is so low in European elections and does it usually translate to home elections?

 

[Marina Salty]

Don't know about the rest of Europe but the turnout here was 39.73% (last Euroelections was 58,69%).
People gave the finger to the existing system and voted to spend the day at the beach.
Which I did too.

 

[VoR]

Austria too

Thank God for Sweden!

 

[VoR]

Portugal also bucking the rightward trend it seems.

 

[gggggg]

Thank God for Sweden!

They’ve had their fill of the right wingers recently I reckon

 

[auretz]

Poland also looking likely to have voted for the centrists over the populist PiS

 

[auretz]

Hungary and Slovakia, the two most problematic for the EU governments currently, will both be interesting - Hungary has a new opposition party that actually seems to have a lot of support, and initial reports are that the progressives have topped the polls in Slovakia (despite Fico’s shooting)

What is GOING ON?!?

 

[Madison]

Belgium had a normal general election today alongside the Euros.

 

[gggggg]

Belgium was holding national elections, it has lead to an indecisive outcome. The Prime Minister resigned to allow coalition talks. Not related to EU elections.

 

[Soldi]

Those MESSY BELGIANS

 

[VoR]

I blame MUSTII

 

[gggggg]

He can’t run again

Quite right, I forgot it got amended.

One assumes he’ll have a Renaissance protege prepared.

 

[VoR]

 

[ILL ADVISED]

 

[GNL]

Excuse me why are they clapping and cheering and not unenthusiastically waving balloons? Sweden has fallen.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Again, the question must be asked, WHY FRANCE WHY?
