    Brussels — Europeans woke Monday to a new political reality after European Parliament elections ended the domination of the EU’s main center-right and center-left parties and revealed a changed political landscape where the far-right, pro-business groups and environmentalists will be forces to be reckoned with. Turning out in numbers not seen for 20 years, voters took their concerns about immigration and security to the ballot box, making parties led by the likes of Italy’s populist Matteo Salvini and France’s far-right leader Marine Le Pen among the biggest in the 28-nation bloc’s assembly.

    “The rules are changing in Europe,” Salvini, Italy’s hard-line interior minister, said at his League party headquarters in Milan early Monday. “A new Europe is born.”

    Voter projections showed the League won 33% of the vote, up from just 6% at the last European vote in 2014.

    The lion’s share of Britain’s seats went to Nigel Farage’s Brexit Party, as citizens punished the governing Conservatives and opposition Labour party for their embarrassing failure to manage the divided country’s delayed departure from the EU.

    ———————–The media sees this asa massive hard core shift right. When it is really just a course correction, nationalist pov and green vote. With over 700 seats, and still 2 out of 3 still controlled by the liberals it will be a lot of noise and I do not think a lot of action until the next election.

    Wishful thinking. It will change nothing.

    The EU parliament actually HAS NO POWER WHATSOEVER.

    It cannot initiate legislation, only comment upon it (they say ‘approve’, but that’s doubletalk). All EU legislation is created by unelected bureaucrats.

    The EU is an oligarchy. Euro MPs are window dressing for the masses, that’s all.

    In reality, Green and other environment parties should be the most anti-immigrant of them all – if they truly care about the environment.

    I think the US should form a military alliance consisting only of countries NOT in the EU. Once UK leaves the EU, the US should pull out of NATO and ally with the UK.

    Force Europeans to either increase their defense spending (and reduce their social programs) or exit the EU if they want to be protected from Russia.

    All my life I've had doubts about who I am, where I belonged. Now I'm like the arrow that springs from the bow. No hesitation, no doubts. The path is clear. And what are you? Alive. Everything else is negotiable. Women have rights; men have responsibilities; MGTOW have freedom. Marriage is for chumps. If someone stands in the way of true justice, you simply walk up behind them and stab them in the heart-R'as al Ghul.
