The centrist peasant greens won a pretty resounding minority in Lithuania last week. People are dissatisfied there i guess.

Iceland elected a minority of the ruling parties and none of the other parties will enter a coalition with them. That leaves: The left green eco-socialists The pirates The social democratic rump party The purple-colored liberals --- not enough for a coalition --- The orange-colored liberals So that'll be a fun rainbow coalition to try and make work.

You're also not gonna know how the French elections are gonna go until new polls pitting fillon against le pen come out Fillon basically cribbed all of FN's positions minus all the really messed up stuff though, so he will have a better shot than juppe. Also gently caress you for hoping for the nazis lol

Is there going to be a cordon sanitaire around PVV or are the centrists tripping over themselves to coalition with them?

Baloogan posted:can ya all please add notes to your posts assuming dumb rear end people in north america are reading? Netherlands: SP = lefties, but closer to social Democrats now PVV = Muslim hatin, religion clingin right wingers led by a guy with bad hair. Wants a Nexit referendum so good luck forming a coalition in Netherlands' clusterfuck proportional representation system. Germany: AfD = not literal nazis (that's the NPD), but close. Not likely to be part of a coalition for reasons stated above by other posters.

Funny enough, the neoliberals are loving the center-left in France too because of Emmanuel Macron, who's formed his own party and is basically splitting the center-left vote, ensuring a second round of the right-wing guy who wants to cut entitlements and likes Russia and hates foreigners and the far-right lady who wants to keep entitlements and also likes Russia and hates foreigners.

Scrub-Niggurath posted:so le pens winning right? actually fillon was looking to be the weakest candidate against her since she's basically Third Position on social services whereas he wanted to cut them all macron is the most likely to overtake him and has a good shot of beating her. the left is still split among two candidates but Hamon has a good chance as well.

Ukraine definitely didn't elect the Party of Regions in 2010 and Euromaidan definitely wasn't bolstered by neo Nazis waving pro-Stepan Bandera flags in every photo of the demonstrations. John McCain definitely wasn't photographed hanging with the literal nazis in Svoboda. I'm hamprince and the CIA is good

Namarrgon posted:You realize that the Russian media under Putin cannot be trusted right? Just like the RWM under Trump cannot be trusted right now. I'm sure it was a real uprising since there's weird demographics regionally in Ukraine- now that Russia has basically annexed Crimea and donbass that takes the historically pro Russian segments of the electorate out of the picture and it makes sense that the rest would want to stay with the EU and by extension, NATO. That doesn't negate the existence of the Azov Battalion nor does it mean we just sat on our hands and didn't interfere with our number one geopolitical adversary during a crisis on their border.

So I know Dutch polls are poo poo but support among parties is so divided that the coalition is guaranteed to be some sort of Rutte-led clusterfuck VVD-D66-CDA-mumble-mumble coalition, right?

Namarrgon posted:Bonus comedy option; GroenLinks becomes a massive party and we get a left-led GroenLinks-SP-X-Y cabinet. This is unlikely. This is my dream but Klaver would probably just morph into post-election Justin Trudeau and it'd basically be like D66 had won the plurality

They literally put an amendment in the 2015 Congress budget that passed the House unanimously to prevent our funds helping Ukraine from going to the neo-Nazis in the Azov Battallion, but it mysteriously disappeared from the budget before it was passed. I'm sure the US military would never support extreme right wingers to achieve its goals though, we've never done that before

Melenchon only wants the top bracket at 90% not 100. Not sure why there's been that discrepancy from French to English media. Also Jez is Labour's best chance of winning in the UK which just shows what an awful place it is.
