congratz, you might be one of the few newsources reporting accurately on this. most agencies have gone for the rather tabloid "far right on the rise" even if the numbers don't support that.
@@samv.g4231 not really, the right wing vote mostly shifted from party's that were either more right wing or slightly less to a single party. it's a consolidation, nothing else.
The Netherlands previous far right party was a member of the ECR and had 4 seats. They lost all 4 but another Dutch ECR party kept 1. Geert wilders went from 1 - 7 seats in ID. His gain was +6 and the losses were -4 so a net positive of 2 seats in the EU parliament are far right and not only that but they have been transferred from the more modestly conservative ECR to ID. Not only that but the BBB is also pretty far right and I wouldn’t be surprised if they joined ECR so that’s another 2 seats. That would mean a net gain of 4. To put that in perspective 2 seats in the Netherlands is 1/15th of the countries total seats and that’s just how much the right increased by. Not to mention that other than the left and greens 8 seats the rest went mostly to center right parties and other conservatives.
@@DanielSmith-x5v Look I realize that for your argument to work, you need conservatives and the far right to be the same thing. but it isn't. the ECR are not far right, and everyone knows it.
Its true, eu elections aren’t populair here only for pro european people. For example only 46% of pvv voters voted, 78% of gl/pvda came and organized a lot of things to get their people to vote. Historically pvv voters don’t show up for European elections. They also don’t do a lot of marketing for these elections.
Contrary what some news platforms say the far right made significant gains in the Netherlands. The Netherlands previous far right party was a member of the ECR and had 4 seats.

I personally gave up voting after I voted for Geert Wilders to become Prime Minister, won and then was denied because of corrupt parties.
