Melech 9,900 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 In 7 months on 23-27 May the European elections are being held. Every citizen of the 28 European states is able to vote. Major parties: -European People's Party group (Centre-right) -Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats (Centre-left) - European Conservatives and Reformists (right party but not anti-EU) -Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe group (liberal-centrist) -European United Left–Nordic Green Left (far-left) -Greens-European Free Alliance (left party) -Europe of Freedom and Direct Democracy (far-right) -Europe of Nations and Freedom (far right) will you go vote and if yes who?

But yeah it’s sad how it’s rather unknown considering it’s such an important election. EU needs to do better Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonsterOfSpain 8,331 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 I'm actually really excited about this I love politics and this will be the first elections I'll be able to participate in (along with the local councils elections in Spain which are being held on the same day). I hope anti-EU parties don't gain too many more votes, we really need a strong and united Union which is able to take decisions and stop populisms from gaining terrain.

I might vote for them next year Yeah I heard Citizens (ALDE) from Spain wants to join. It's a roughly new party who was created in Catalonia to fight nationalism and independentism, but although initially it began as a social-liberal centrist party (something brandly new in Spain) lately it's been turning more into the center-right and voters are starting to perceive it as Spanish nationalist and populist. It's a shame, cause I used to really like it and I think it's the most pro-EU integration party rn, but if they don't go back to their liberal thoughts I may vote PSOE (S&D). I'll wait till I read the electoral programmes though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virgin Ryan 1,551 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 I'm just curious about their refugees politics. I have some German friends. Some of them said that refugees should kicked out from Germany and Europe. But some think it's okay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
