European parliament shaken up after election results.
Hard right parties have surged to victory in Britain, France, Italy and Poland in shock results that have delivered a new political reality.
Half a billion Europeans have woken to a new political reality as results from European elections showed an end to dominance of two main political groups for the first time in history.
Results showed the two main groups in the 751 seat European parliament have lost their majority, while greens, liberals, right wing and populist parties scored huge gains across the 28 member states.
Far right parties topped the votes in Italy, France, Britain and Poland, in the highest voter turnout in 20 years, as leaders rode a wave of anger at EU officials over immigration and economic policies. However provisional results showed there is little change at the overall balance of power, with socialists, greens, liberals and conservatives maintaining control of 506 of the 751 seats.
Italy’s Interior Minister and leader of the far-right League party Matteo Salvini scored one third of the national vote and hailed the results by saying “a new Europe is born”.
“Not only is the League the first party in Italy, but also Marine Le Pen is the first party in France, Nigel Farage is the first party in the UK,” he told reporters. “The results confirm our expectations, the celebration won’t be long, it’s time for responsibility.”
Poland’s eurosceptic Law and Justice party won 45 per cent of the national vote, while Marine Le Pen’s anti-immigration National Rally, beat President Emmanuel Macron’s En Marche party by a one point margin with both scoring 23 seats in the European Parliament.
Le Pen said the result “confirms the new nationalist-globalist division” in France and called for Macron to “dissolve the National Assembly”.

https://www.news.com.au/finance/work/le ... 7a16492c6eIn Britain, Nigel Farage’s Brexit Party which was launched just six weeks ago scored 36 per cent of the vote with a hardline message to take Britain out of the EU on October 31.
The Liberal Democrats and Greens also gained as projected, while the results were a disaster for the governing Conservative Party, who scored less than 10 per cent of the vote.
Mr Farage said it showed a “massive message” for politicians and said his party are ready to stand for a UK general election.
“We want to be part of the negotiating team. We want to take responsibility for what it’s happening and we’re ready to do so. I hope the government is listening.”
“We’re not just here to leave the European Union but to try and fundamentally change the shape of British politics, bring it into the 21st century and get a Parliament that better reflects the country,” Farage said.
Conservative leadership hopeful Boris Johnson described the result as a “crushing rebuke” for the government.
“If we go on like this, we will be fired: dismissed from the job of running the country,” he wrote in The Telegraph.

Probably, I don't really see the UK being able to come back from what it has become.

Re: New Europe
Will Farage walk out of the EU Parliament after October's deadline?
I bet he won't. He likes the money too much.

Don't give up on real humans yet.
The creatures that allowed the filth of the world to invade and destroy their culture are slowly being weeded out.
When humans finally realise tgat only small gains can be achieved the way they are going, someone will come to the fore and take charge and rid their countries of the pigs swill currently parking themselves There.
It's coming, slowly but surely, and even nice safe countries are now closing their borders.
The idiots proclaiming the benefits (that do not exist) of multicultural invasion will be forced out.
Perhaps even civil wars will be fought.

My hope is that in time, Islam will be nothing but a bad dream

The one that says the least can often have a very different perspective and hold the answer. The least qualified person may hold the most wisdom. When you don’t have knowledge or experience blocking your perspective, you can see problems and solutions.

I did read somewhere that there are about 60 borders which have been shut down throughout Europe,
so maybe there is a chance yet that sanity will prevail....we can only hope...
