double nine posted:You know ... if CD&V truly is a centrist party, it should be as comfortable working with the left as with the right ... which would make this a possiblity: It'd be electoral suicide for CD&V to enter a coalition with the PvdA. You'd have a right wing Flemish government continuously bashing on the communist federal government and in 5 years we'll see N-VA/VB get over 50% combined. Unless a centrist/green/socialist/extreme socialist government ends up working well and making everything better for everyone.

It added 8 seats but the Greens got over twice that. The big winner seems to ALDE who look like business oriented centrists which sucks but this could have been a lot worse.

Wouldn't say the right wing massively won this. In some countries they had to take some nasty hits and seeing how other parties lost voter support, their gain was rather small.

An insane mind posted:Welp, I voted left and european friendly for all the good it'll do. Apparently turnout is abysmal where I am. I had a bet with a friend that we'd see <50% turnout so I guess I owe him a beer now. Final counting is underway in Sweden, but preliminary result have the left block (S, V, MP, FI) losing 3 seats, going from 11 to 8 . The right block (M, C, L, KD) gained 2 seats, from 7 to 9. The far right SD gained 1 seat, from 2 to 3. ( M and KD: EPP. C and L: ALDE. S and FI: S&D. V: GUE/NGL. MP and PP: EFA. SD: ECR )

In Croatia a rather symmetric result. 4 seats old school right, 4 old school left. 1 new right, 1 new left. 1 uneducated anti-establishment, 1 educated anti-establishment. It's seen as a poor performance of the old school right because domestically they've been kicking the old school left (main opposition) for years and were expected to win easily.

Speaking of Ireland, I guess the green Growth has been at the expense of Sinn Fein? By and large, SF had a pretty poor election (both euros and simultaneous locals) - a lot of the Greens success has been pinned on an outstanding performance from one of their candidates in a televised debate and the growth of the climate issue. The party itself is v centrist historically (and was part of the FF coalition government during the financial crisis). Predictable the government has immediately signalled movement on climate issues and talk of an FG/Green coalition has picked up, a local green and black variant. There's already increased talk about a general election now within the next few months, previously punting that till after Brexit was the preferred option. kustomkarkommando fucked around with this message at 14:45 on May 27, 2019 |

But they're an outlier due to their size, not their politics, if even half of what is posted in the UKMT-thread is true. At least the more prominent ones like Bojo the Clown, Leadsom, Hunt, Gove, JRM etc. would much better fit into Lega, RN, AfD or FPÖ and their ilk than CDU/Les Republicaines/ÖVP, which would already be bad enough.

Any other majority seems unlikely at this point (except for a grand coalition, which won't happen as long as Kurz leads the ÖVP). So get ready for Schwarz-Blau 2: Nazi Bugaloo in autumn.

For the sake of comparison, here's a map of median earnings per household in Paris in 2011 (blue = higher, red = lower): Tl;DR: Macron's the president of the rich.

Basically what happened is that the traditional conservative party voters switched to macron, at least in urban areas. another graph vote per age in french elections yellow s macrons party, green is greens, blue is conservative, brown is fn, red is melenchons party, pink is socialist (liberal centrist), grey is others. LR is in trouble with regard to the age of its voters
