The European Parliament, circa 2012. Click to see full-size image
On May 26th, people of the European Union went to the polling booths to vote for members of European Parliament.
The biggest winner by far was voter turnout, since these elections saw the highest activity after 40 years of declining participation. The 50% turnout was reached.

For the first time since 1989, the center-right European People’s Party (EPP) fell below 25 percent of the vote, with the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats (S&D) in the European Parliament just shy of 20%. The third biggest party was the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe + Renaissance + USR PLUS (ALDE&R) at 14.51%.
The grand coalition between the EPP and the S&D blocs will lose their majority in the 751-seat legislature.
The EPP came in first place with 180 seats, down sharply from 216 seats in the 2014 election. The S&D came in second with 146 seats, down from 185 in the last election. Third came in the ALDE&R, a centrist party, with 107 seats, a huge jump from 69 seats in the last election.
The Greens made gains to 70 seats, from 52 in the last parliament. The European Conservatives and Reformists Group (ECR) won 58 seats. The EU’s “Green wave” remained geographically limited. Green parties finished second and third in countries including Germany, France, Finland and Luxembourg. Yet Green parties have won no seats in Southern and Eastern Europe.
The so-called “Euroskeptics” made gains, the Europe of Nations and Freedom Group (ENF) and Europe of Freedom and Direct Democracy (EFDD), won 58 and 56 seats, respectively. Combined, these parties won 33 seats more compared to the last election.
In Hungary, Viktor Orbán’s ruling Fidesz party scored 53% which also marked the biggest success of euroskeptics in the bloc.
Fidesz will now need to decide whether to stay within the EPP, or to branch out and join a Euroskeptic party group.
In Italy, Matteo Salvini’s Right League party won 35% of the vote. In France, Marine Le Pen’s National Rally won 23.3%. In the UK, the Brexit Party and Nigel Farage won 31.7% of the vote.
“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. Therefore, Italy, France, the UK – it is the sign of a Europe that is changing.”
In Spain, the Socialist Party (PSOE) won the elections with 33% of the vote, pushing down the Popular Party (PP) from the leading position it had held since 2014. It should be noted that in Spain Catalonia’s former separatist president Carles Puigdemont, who fled Spain in 2017 after a failed secession bid, and his ex-deputy Oriol Junqueras, currently in jail, were elected to the European Parliament.
Spain’s conservative Vox party entered the European chamber for the first time, earning 6% of the vote and three MEPs
And across the Parliament, Euroskeptic parties look set to end the night with 235 seats, not all of those are part of the Euroskeptic bloc, since some are part of EPP or others, but allegiances might change.
The European United Left-Nordic Green Left (GUE/NGL) secured 38 seats, down 14, while Others/Non-attached won the remaining 35 seats.
The voting results show a general discontent of the voters with the current state of the EU bureaucracy and the disregard of sovereign national interest.
Despite this, parties representing the European branch of the Global Deep State largerly remained in control of the European Parliament. Political forces representing interests of the European nations and states failed to deliver a devastating blow to the bureaucracy and globalists and would remain in the opposition.
This is an important symptom of the current state of the EU political landscape. The wave of terrorist attacks and violence as well as the radicalisation of the society and the decreasing real earnings of the population did not affect the mainstream political parties as much as some experts had expected. Taking into account this and the large-scale propaganda campaign in the maisntream media in the support of the globalist, “neo-liberal” world order, constructive European political forces would likely not be able to strengthen their positions further in the next electoral cycle. The window of opportunities to change the curren course and move towards the national and indusrial development of the core European countries is closing.
In short, these elections only verified what is already known-Europe is finished, a decadent and decaying world whose soul is already dead.
The elctions confirm EU works and can change by the parlament. More then ever voted about it.
Actuallæy it normal here things change by elections making new things, other directions as well as intensitives.
It true as told in the article the (in danish) Flomme Europæers lost terrain(maybee translated into the fanitics for EU as a Union).
As elector I always has been sceptic to that part of the parlament. I doesnt say, I dont want an EU. I want a kind of lighter version, where less things are decided by EU but the rest in stead is kept much better.
I dont se us as 500 million dead ones. We also have the second largets GDP in the world(incl. UK). Even we should decline, its because China grows and not because we decline. I think its very good the Chinese certainly need something better then old communisme and Chairman Mao.
It’s not about GDP or strong economy-it’s about values, demographics, what is worth living for. Europe is finished irrespective of what the Chinese, the Russians, the US do..
I dont see that at all.
GDP, measured in Euros or dollars, which toilet paper do you prefer?
Which currency doesnt matter to me at all. Its about how many You owe and what You can buy for them.
You have a few bolts missing.
Yes I have. It makes me flexible and You dont see, they are there even not in use all the time.
So You are a stiff :)
Exactly.
A European Union was a fantasy as Europe is tribal fragmented historically, and just in the last century Europeans killed each other with glee in two major European (world) wars and before that they were fighting on how to enslave Africa, Asia, South America and China. The main sources of inter-European wars was slave trade, opium and ripping off African nations.
You forget this was based on inventions and innovations. You also forget many other partsof the world had slavery too and still more or less have.
but there is still some life in the body which needs to be extinguished promptly
“Despite this, parties representing the European branch of the Global Deep State largerly remained in control of the European Parliament.”
Voting? Why would anyone think the Deep State can be removed by that intentionally broken tool. FFS… use the proper tool for the job. Try one of these: https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/1d4e32a7d2d8ea5297f17457014e40d8d7fa81fa8c223115b45a61edee46a8a1.png
True. Only war will remove the Deep State Globalists in Europe. There will be no Velvet Revoutions.
The war will remove the remains of rationalism and common sense. Globalists has to win.
Who says Globalisation is needed to have Rationalism and Common sense. We had Rationalism and commonsense before Globalisation ever took over. It was called the Age of Reason and Enlightenment and it was started again in the Late 1700 ‘s.
All these fringe parties only became popular once globalisation forced outcomes they never wanted on the majorities of the population .
Remove the Globalisation ,bring back sovereignty and you will see incomes go up and the popularity of these parties go down again.
Brother Ma, rationalism and common sense are opposing globalism.
Didn’t I say the same thing? Didn’t i say that remove globalisation amd you will have common sense and rationalism flower again?
I think Harry is right. One generation brainwashed during 20 years, only nukes can change the future. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bdS2PjNAvg&feature=youtu.be
We are not brainwashed. Many here has learned WW1 and 2 as well as the Empire wars should be replavv´ced by something better – Even we pay a price too.
All this waffle, you guys are as bad as the plutocrats, forget talking, just kill the fkrs.
@Sinbad2:disqus kill the mofos? Well, how much you have killed until now?
As the KGB guy says, no matter what proof or evidence you provide, you cant get through these brainwashing tools when people have been exposed to them during 15 to 20 years. The nukes are not a personal opinion, just a possible result.
Nuking America is the only answer, it’s either us or them.
So what are you saying? Didnt i say Globalisation also dumbed down the populace? Didn’t I say remove globalisation and you will remove ignorance?
How do we disagree then?
Sovereignity is a relative too. The countries was runned by Capitalist, Feudals anbd Kings, where we all were their private tools.
Denmark dont need more sovereignty at all. We have voted and went from EFTA to EU.
We have not lost our identity but made it wider and bigger then ever. Before that we hardly could leave our village and even after being allowed by very good reasons had to pay fort it. That was for almost all.
Education matters could make a change and if men would join the navy too, and that was it. It was not even allowed to go to tothers parts of the country or emmigrate.
Now wecan go free all over Western Europe as well as buy and sell from there almost as we wish.
You define countries as well as nationalisme as they were not. Most uprises from 1848 and today has not been about nationality, but about being treated bad and fx ot helped, if there ws no food.
Thats where Urban and his Philistines are totally wrong. He is a very good example of old days disieze even declaring being against muslim emmigrants hardly having none.
And of course we see that part of the Hungarians want old Hungarians parts back as if there was no WW1 and 2.
And thats what EU is for making borders less relevent and adding same laws at both sides of the borders and minories integrated into th rest.
And of course we see them create other enemies too such as Romans.
but they will not.
They will, bro. They will. Now generation Z is entering the electoral force and those lads will vote globalization even not understanding what they voted for. Generation X is the last rational generation of our modern civilization. The game is lost.
for you yes it is lost. You know how many said that for centuries now comparing their generation to the younger ones ? I believe temporarily the game is lost for many western countries, but for them the game was lost the day they began to exist, as is the case of the colonies.
I been training young humans and have trained several generations of them. And I was only one of many who trained our younger generations just did not activate them yet. The right moment is coming faster than many of you think.
The right moment without external support is just a dream, created by the MSM news. Even American revolution against Britain was hardly sponsored by French crown. And as now all financial resources are in the hands of one homogeneous group of people, the only right moment that will work is the moment for further globalization. PS if you want to understand how the real globalization looks like, I would suggest you a book of Soros: “The crisis of international capitalism”.
we dont need external support to defend what we always defended kid and that is our lands. I can say that because I come from a place that never in all is history ever been conquered or enslaved by any one. Many try from the turks to napoleon and many others via our history. But been humanitarians always left one or two alive and send them to tell what they experienced with a warning to their masters.
I dont know how your brain it functions, but I can tell you are just one man or woman, that either follows someone but have none to follow you so you feel weak and isolated waiting for someone else to do your fight and wars. I seen this mentality all over the net.
Well, history has an opinion opposite to yours. And I think you do not understand what enemy we all are facing now.
Soros in light version are on the internet. I tryed to read books by him. Those are not for normal people – especially ones from other cultures – I think.
My wish for the future could be, we taxt parts of the ones, You name as a homogene group. But I never would give those billions and billions to the poor.
Well, the main think you have to understand and remember, they want to replace relationships with operations. It is when to have sex with a woman you do not need marry with her, but just pay for service by any means (money, your company, a gift, or a trip to the seaside). Or to buy milk you don’t have to go to the shop and have a small conversation with a shop owner. It’s better for them if you will by it in a large supermarket with a seller working like a robot. Hope I explained it simple enough. Sorry if my English is not good.
p.s. I dont need to read nothing to understand globalization but obviously you do and from all people soros. Now you have make me laugh and thank you for that laugh.
My family been against the globalization for centuries and always we done very good against our enemies. To you maybe is a new fruit to us is been passed from generation to generation the knowledge as well the means to defeat them.
Sorry, but you don’t see even the top of the iceberg. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_nomad
It would be nice You made a winners list. True China grows a lot and India some, but were are the main loosers of today.
Well, they insist in staying at the same low step and blame others like in fx Syria of today. Europe trade a lot with Africa and we see progress for millions there, but the the “billions” remains the same.
I think You are right.
Next week we will have local Danish elections. The winners seemes to be globalist in a more sober way at certainly not the non-globalist.
And in the big picture in EU those has declined some. But I see hope for, we can export the cleaning the world better and more because its also cheeper. The result also wil be somemarginal growth, because we then can effort it.
Unfortunately you are right. I was shocked to recently read this: “Only two thirds of Generation Z identify as solely heterosexual, in stark contrast to previous generations, a study has found.
Research by Ipsos Mori found that 66 per cent of young people, aged between 16 and 22, are “exclusively heterosexual” – the lowest figure of any generation.”
This has nothing to do with sexuality, it’s ideological question now. It only shows how utterly and completely indoctrinated are these new generations. In 10 years young people will be ashamed to admit they are hetero. Globalist brainwashing machinery is obviously that powerful to change people perception about something as fundamental as sexuality. We are the last real resistance… but they already won.
“They” is a relative.
Brother or cousin?
I see no reasons for war. Globalism already has won in main parts of the world, but has to be more spread out in a less agressive version.
One way is polluters also are the cleaners.
It not won yet, because traditionalists are still powerful enough. Globalism won the most of battles but the war is not won yet. And sovereign Russia is one of the reasons. But we will fall too, sooner or later.
Thats right. Its not won yet, but it might need modifictions as well as fx russia do need changes.
I seee them change now, but I cant see they are doing well by that. I am so pessimistic seeing Russia cant even pay pension to the old as well as limiting the internet.
I hope its a phase. Its hard comming from the collapse in 1991 without using small steps up again, but so far I dont see up.
Why you are always saying Russia is not paying pensions? Pensions are payed regularly. A quite long time I had not met the elders, complaining they did not get their pension in time. Where did you got this info?
https://www.rt.com/russia/440291-russian-pension-reform-lawl/
+ many articles about at fx google
Could you please be so kind and give me the quote from the article, where it says that pensions are not payed? Read article twice and not found this.
If I have written russians are not paid, I am so sorry. Thats not correct.
As I recall it, thy will get lowered pension because the old population will grow. It might be found from a proposeal before this.
No. The pensions grow every year. Shall we discuss about limiting the Internet? :)
None want war. Most things are doing fine and average. We dont have the one string systems You think is better. Where are the much better systems, we should copy.
Only China is improving.
If You dont like spiders, look at us as them, one or several strings in their networks dont collapse the rest.
The only velvet I see is building up independency for fossils up, and parts of EU is doing very well in that. We also can export and do that for billions saving You and us for a lot of dirt in the air and ground making less dying saving healtcare as wel.
True, history shows that the only way to rid society of the elites is to kill them.
Can you please be so kind, and name 3 cases of elites mass-killing, which were NOT financed by foreign elites?
French revolution Russian revolution Algerian revolution
French revolution was financed by Brits, with help of Duke of Orleans. I.E. Duke of Orleans, on British money bought a great amount of grain from French peasants, which lead to the hunger in Paris. Russian revolution, at Feb. 1917 was financed by Britain, while in Nov. 1917 was financed by USA and Germany, separately. (There is even a book: “wall street and the bolshevik revolution”) Algerian rebels were getting their money and arms from arab countries, USSR and China.
Yeah I read the same crop circle. You nuts who believe in aliens and all the other rubbish help the plutocrats by suggesting all who disagree with the current system are fkn crazy like you.
1. I do not believe in aliens. 2. You did not present any facts in support of your position. 3. Saying I am crazy, does not make you position more veritable. PS really do recommend you to find and read US army TC 18-01 Special Forces Unconventional Warfare.
Don’t mind him. He’s an Aussie of British ancestry who spends too much time in rural area rolling around in hay fields. Hence his obsession with crop circles.
He thinks the degenerates of the British empire were good hearted men who conquered the world to spread love and peace.
History hasnt shown that at all.
I agree. Economic as well as political changes are needed, but tall they are broken or will is very optimistic or the opposite.
Western Economies wont break like that having fx China as a very big and depended affiliate.
The worries might be, that we are not able to make needed changes as long as USA is runned by something like Trump.
Further down the homoglobo hill. Smart Grid, 5G, RFID chips, Cashless, Invisible Orwellian micromanagement and smiling you. You love slavery because you have never known anything else. It has always been there from the beginning. Until you find Rorschachs book ;-).
Indigenous lands for indigenous tribes. The EU was always evil against everyone, especially it’s own indigenous peoples. The EU has committed intellectual-theft, genetic-theft and land-theft. https://www.wykop.pl/cdn/c3201142/comment_EyUYpCe8HTfVwdhzmIeEvY6Ck6NcU89v.jpg https://i.4cdn.org/wg/1553573915935.jpg
Thye didnt steal You, because You are woth nothing – Something like that. You even blame them for it ahahaha
