From the land of haribos.

It is the eu election and voting started 6th june and it is lasting for 3 days till 9th june, today, is the last day.

Did you know that this is the tenth parliamentary election since the first direct elections in 1979 and that it is mandatory to vote in 4 member states, they are, belgium, bulgaria, luxembourg and greece?

What do you think is the outcome of it?

I think it is hard to say, but many are predicting that it could be a sharp turn to the right too

If more of the British electorate knew the answer to that question, we wouldn't be in the Brexit mess we're in now.

I'll take a look. If it's a kind of trade bloc or something, we should consider joining.

The EU was a great idea as a trade union. But as always, politicians decided to used it to gain more power and tried taking away sovereignty of countries with their stupid idea of an "ever-closer union". I could see them imploding pretty soon.

I haven't expressed an opinion here.

Evidence suggests a large proportion of the electorate had no idea. This forum over the last however many years seems to have confirmed that.

From the land of haribos.

I read the latest news and macron calls for a snap election on june 30, because le pens far right party makes historic gains in the eu elections, the national rally party gained 31.5% of support in france according to exit polls on sunday, becoming the first french party to receive more than 30% of votes in european elections since 1984.

What do you think of macrons decision of calling a snap election? I think that it is good he does it.

In germany the far right also makes strong gains, afd finished 2nd in the sundays eu election.

Extract from interesting article I read yesterday…

“While the radical right comes in an array of flavors, what unites them is a view of the world centered around an ethnic nation-state, hostility toward migrants, especially if they’re Muslim, and skepticism toward supranational organizations like the EU, the United Nations and, in some cases, NATO.

Some radical-right politicians are economic libertarians, but more espouse a strong, protective state — at least when it comes to those they consider citizens. Apart from the factionalism that plagues the passionate, Russia is the biggest point of division. Some parties, like the AfD or Austria’s Freedom Party, are open fans of Russian President Vladimir Putin. Others like Meloni’s Brothers of Italy or Poland’s Law and Justice party are, for reasons of conviction or convenience, among his staunchest opponents.”

Did brave, son of stockbroker, privately educated, merchant banker turned career politician, Sir Nige fiddle his expenses?

We pilloried Nadhim Zahawi for about £6k worth of fiddling, so surely brave Sir Nige could only have fiddled a couple of hundred quid?

Politics is like a pendulum. It swings back and back again. It's needs that correction now and then. The loony left self appointed libertarians are losing to the right. We need that to end the madness occasionally. It's democracy. The kind of democracy that the liberal elite love until the people fall out of love with it. Then they demonise the right by calling them populist, can't be trusted to vote, such an important issue cannot be entrusted with the minions..

How patronising and evil to say that old people voted leave but now they are dead. Maybe stop anyone over 40 voting. That will do the trick ..

I’m not sure you could describe libertarians as left wing, Tom. Left wing tends to be defined by ‘big government’ and libertarianism is the exact opposite.

"Politics is like a pendulum. It swings back and back again. It's needs that correction now and then. The loony left self appointed libertarians are losing to the right. We need that to end the madness occasionally. It's democracy. The kind of democracy that the liberal elite love until the people fall out of love with it. Then they demonise the right by calling them populist, can't be trusted to vote, such an important issue cannot be entrusted with the minions..

How patronising and evil to say that old people voted leave but now they are dead. Maybe stop anyone over 40 voting. That will do the trick ..

I’m not sure you could describe libertarians as left wing, Tom. Left wing tends to be defined by ‘big government’ and libertarianism is the exact opposite."

Hahaha.. great entertainment

Macron calling a snap election was a bit of a shock though it turns out its not his job on the line, directly. If his party do badly in this parliamentary election, can he really stay on as president

"Everyone still wanna rejoin the EU? "

Nope that ship sailed and the sweet deal we had would be no more. The single market and return to a trading bloc EEC style for the UK, yeah sure!

To add…across the EU the right have been emboldened by Brexit. We could see the EU unravel anyway now!

And free movement? That's the one thing remainers we're pissed at most.

'The right' said all along we could see the EU implode. Apparently, that was nonsense.

The Lib Dems are talking about Single Market (eventually) and easier/freedom of movement. I need to go back and check actual wording.

I don’t think FoM for all was really what remainers were pissed off at. Everyone recognised that unfettered immigration is challenging for public services. But FoM for us into Europe certainly LOL

It would be FoM for the EU/Europe surely seeing as that's what we're speaking about.

Have you seen some of the left, they definitely would welcome unfettered immigration.

"What's this EU you speak of?

If more of the British electorate knew the answer to that question, we wouldn't be in the Brexit mess we're in now.

Most of the electorate know, they just don't agree with your opinion Johnny

Knew, as in those who voted to leave at the time..

Ask that question tomorrow and the outcome will be different ..

Know, because I got one would vote the same way as would everyone i know/knew

Knew as in a large percentage of those who voted to leave are no longer with us sadly..

Go and look at the data concerning the age groups if each side and the various polls that have been carried out in the last eight years..

Perhaps repeat the vote every 12 months until we get the result we want. ."

Like the tories have done since Brexit

What evidence do you have that the right has been emboldened by Brexit. Bit of a sweeping statement.
