Yes the Dutch always had the reputation of being super tolerant - although how much of that was due to Amsterdam. From what I'm reading there's a lot of disenchantment with the cost of living, rents and a housing crisis and the go to position is to blame the immigrant and the outsider rather than trying to tackle the excesses of capitalism.

Another Sunday, another European country veers far right - this time Portugal with the Chega party on 18% of the votes. The socialists will lose power and likely a centre right coalition will take hold with Chega potentially kingmakers.

ITV news having a SHITE HEADLINE about "expecting mothers ABORTING THEIR BABEIS due to cost of living pressures". Um, no. The term is, terminating pregancies, and also ... nobody is doing that. Ridiculous anti-abortion propaganda that has staryed just when the election season starts...

Looks like Modi is set to have his power and grip on India weakened considerably with his BJP underperforming in the Indian elections.
Honestly these elections haven't been on my radar because I assumed he was onto another landslide but this is promising that he and his Hindu nationalism will be ousted... eventually if not right now. |

French politics has been golden to watch in the wake of this parliamentary election announcement
from what I can tell, the left have firmly united and look set to dramatically reverse their fortunes in the EU election, Les Republicains have imploded about as hard as it is possible for an erstwhile major political party to implode, Le Pen's suddenly finding herself bereft of allies and Zemmour's publically had a row with most of his newly elected MEPS, one of whom is Le Pen's niece far-right imploding under their own hubris *.* Maybe Macron really was doing a 500IQ move huh |

With the UK having the most numerical movement in terms of MPs, alongside France having an election with more significant political + policy consequences the first week of July is gonna be wild.
