Can’t wait to see Portugal get a darker shade of blue in 4 months from now.
Can we stop calling anything right of centre ‘far right’? It’s getting dumb.
I really don’t get how PiS can be called far-right.
They are right-leaning but they are far from far-right in fact they introduced f*ckton of left-leaning policies.
PiS is not far right. Crazy minister Z party (under PiS umbrella) and Konfa are far right.
Most of PiS are regular right and PL2050 is center right. KO is partially center right too.
To sum up… 70% Polish parliament is pretty much center right to far right.
PiS isn’t far right. That would be Konfederacja (who got a hair over 7%).
they still don’t know what far-right means
So the definition they give is sharing a stance on anti-immigration, social conservatism and nationalism. Quite a wide scope for interpretation and who decides?
Belgium is kinda misleading, since most parties only exist in one half of the country.
VB got 19% in Flanders, while the biggest far-right party in Wallonia is PP with 3%.
“Far right” – a label used by extreme left for anyone that’s not leftist ever since Overton window was pushed significantly to the left
Just for reference, in Denmark the largest left-wing party (The Social Democrats) adopted the immigration policy of the right wing, neutering the far right.
Our Prime Minister has been a Social Democrat ever since they did that.
PiS is no longer 37%. Last time they got 35,4%.
I bet this Subreddit is overjoyed with this statistic
If only centrist/center-left parties adopted anti immigration policies this wouldn’t have happened.
Calling PiS far right is as accurate as calling Salin era USSR Communists a modern day socialist role model
They use right wing rethoric in some areas but in mamy they go straight up populist, and when it comes to the economic side of things some go as far as call them socialists thanks to their huge state donation programs pushed regardless if they ar working or not, being much more pro spending than center and even center-left parties
Unfortunately, it is higher in France. Last presidential elections, 23% in the first round, 41 in the second. They could win it in 2027, polls are good for them. And as we seen with pension reform in the beginning of the year, with our amazing Constitution, they could govern and pass laws without a majority in Parliament…
This map is unfortunate, bc after 8 years Poland has finally moved PIS away from power.
Also they’re not far right. It’s simply a populist party, focused on satisfying conservative views of elders.
Apparently we consider right leaning parties as “far right”
Sad to see Fpö gaining support recently 🤷♂️
Isn’t Denmark the only country that’s grasped the nettle of reducing migration and promoting intervention
fidesz far right? lmao
How is PiS far right. What is Konfederacja then? They are populist, center right if anyhting.
Fidesz (Hungary) is not far right. They are populist pigs with a lot of cheap communist tricks. I just hate them and wish they would stop poisoning the spirit of the people, but they are not far right, this is some different type of demon.
I wouldn’t call PiS a far-right party. Poland’s main far-right party is DEFINITELY Konfederacja (currently 7%)
PiS is conservative socially, while being center-left economically, which is not bad in itself but it’s also sprinkled (more like flooded) with nepotism and populism.
In contrast to other parties on this map (at least the ones I’m familiar with) PiS is heavily anti-Russian, lowering taxes wasn’t really on its mind, and it gave away a ton of money in welfare. It isn’t really popular among polish youth and most of its voters are over 50
TLDR
PiS is a right wing party, but generally not far-right, the better choice for Poland on this map would be Konfederacja
DF (Denmark) is only far-right in the anti-immigration, anti-EU sense. They are very left on all other issues. Furthermore, Nye Borgerlige and Danmarksdemokraterne are both larger than DF, as anti-immigration and more fiscally conservative.
Finnish PS (PerusSuomalaiset) is not even a “Far right” political group. But the BBP = BlueBlackParty (SiniMustaPuolue) they are almost on the same spectrum with Nazi Germany. Or Mussolinis Italy.
Far-right now means anything right from the left I see?
If people stopped calling reasonable immigration policies far-right things would sound a lot less scary
Tackle. Fucking. Immigration.
Is it so hard to understand?
LOL PiS is as far left from the real far right Confederates as they are right from the social democracy. They are clumsy, arrogant populist bigots, but still just a conservative party.
