Þe terrifying prospect of an extreme-right wave swamping the European Parliament next June has never been more likely! Current projections give their parliamentary groups close to 25% of the seats… It alas particularly true in France with the (formerly) Nazional Front (now called RN) almost certain to get the highest percentage of the votes among all French parties, while keeping their anti-EU discourse, if vaguely stated but definitely around a disguised “Frexit”

In the previous legislatures, the RN European deputies have proved an inertia and passive factor, being rarely present and even less active in the Parliament but voting against most parliamentary proposals and resolutions, esp. those on ecology, gender rights, reproductive rights, migrations, and Ukraine

“One of the presidents of a big country stood up and said, ‘Well, sir, if we don’t pay, and we’re attacked by Russia, will you protect us?’ “I said, ‘You didn’t pay, you’re delinquent?’ No, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want. You got to pay. You got to pay your bills.”DT, 10 Feb

“The sudden death of Alexei Navalny has made me more and more aware of what is happening in our Country, CROOKED, Radical Left Politicians, Prosecutors, and Judges leading us down a path to destruction (…) I stand before you today not only as your past and hopefully future president but as a proud political dissident. I am a dissident.” – DT, 18 & 24 Feb

A vote for Trump is your ticket back to freedom, it’s your passport out of tyranny and it’s your only escape from Joe Biden and his gang’s fast track to hell. And in many ways, we’re living in hell right now because the fact is, Joe Biden is a threat to democracy – really is a threat to democracy. The Stalinist show trials being carried out at Joe Biden’s orders set fire not only to our system of government but to hundreds of years of western legal tradition” DT, 24 Feb

“…send Joe Biden’s illegal aliens back home. They’re coming from Asia, they’re coming from the Middle East, coming from all over the world, coming from Africa, and we’re not going to stand for it … They’re killing our people. They’re killing our country. We have no choice. We have languages coming into our country … they have languages that nobody in this country has ever heard of. It’s a horrible thing.” DT, 24 Feb
