Might end up with Hungary finally being kicked out of the EU if Orban isn't removed from power.

Viktor is popular amongst conservatives in many different countries in Europe.

I think that is the direction where Europe is headed towards, especially with the looming economic crisis.

Bad economy and mass migrations has done wonders for the European right.

Looks like Wilders and PVV are winners in this election.

For the first time since WW2, far right party is going to win state election in Thuringia.

They are also very close in Saxony, where CDU is leading.

Any news out of Germany that starts with “for the first time since WW2” always makes me nervous.
