EU elections fallout: a shock snap vote, resignations and the far right
we begin in France and in what’s being described as a huge political gamble breaking story that mcon called a snap election after huge farri gains in elections to the European Parliament this is a real shock for European politics [Applause] there been a definitive shift to the right in Austria the Freedom Party top of the pile G builders in the Netherlands very happy politician taking seats this time around Marine Le Pen in France a record 32% the afd in Germany coming [Applause] second aside from those rather dramatic headlines about the hard rout is that the center and the center right have largely held they will control the majority of the seat my friends today is a good day for EP we won the European elections my [Applause] friends far right is not interested in doing legislation on the green deal if you look at the last 5 years they almost voted against all the elements of the green deal so I think the center now really needs to stand together and and work on the green deal
Emmanuel Macron stunned politicians and the public by announcing a snap general election after the far-right National Rally party won about 32% of the French vote. But it wasn’t just in France that the far right was celebrating.

As far as I know, no Far Right parties were standing.
What is the left & what is the right pertaining to the thought process, and how is it relevant to the political systems and the outcomes of the political system and relationships, what happens when the balance between the two is destroyed on the political forum and social forum. The only aspect left when balance is removed is chaos.
