  1. ”The far-right continues to hold sway over certain parts of Europe, with Hungary topping the list as the country with the highest share of seats held by a major far-right party. Viktor Orbán’s Fidesz won a landslide victory in the country’s 2022 legislative elections, securing 59 percent of the seats in parliament. Poland has also seen a populist political landscape unfold over past years, with the ultra-conservative Law and Justice (PiS) party winning 51 percent of the seats in the Diet in 2019. In 2017 and 2018, other far-right parties came to power, with the FPÖ in Austria, followed by Matteo Salvini’s Lega in Italy, which has 21 percent of the seats in the Italian parliament. The Austrian FPÖ has since recorded a sharp decline in popularity, and as of 2019 only represents 17 percent of its parliament, compared to 28 percent in 2017.

    Elsewhere in the EU, Spain’s far-right, represented by Vox, holds around 15 percent of seats in parliament, a similar share to that of the National Rally (RN) in France. In Belgium, the Flemish nationalist party, Vlaams Belang, currently weighs in at 12 percent, while in Germany the AfD has fallen to 11 percent after losing 11 seats in the 2021 federal elections.

    The parties cited in the chart have been grouped together for sharing similar ideologies on nationalism, social conservatism and anti-immigration, and are widely considered to be on the far right of the political spectrum in Europe.”

  2. Que mapa. O PiS da Polonia é “extrema direita” mas depois em Italia não metem o FdI que é do mesmo grupo do PiS e metem antes a Lega? Mesma coisa com o Vox e o SD.

    Extrema direita é o bicho papão que dá mais clicks.
