Far-right candidates bidding to become vice-president of the European Parliament were voted down on Tuesday as part of centrist parties’ coordinated efforts to build a firewall against the radical right-wing. While the hard-right European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR) group of Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni did manage to secure two vice-presidents - one more than in the previous mandate - the two newly-formed radical right-wing groupings were blocked. It means neither Patriots for Europe, led by the French National Rally's Jordan Bardella, or the Europe of Sovereign Nations (ESN) o...

Contrary to what the polls predicted, the left-wing coalition New Popular Front (NFP) came out on top during Sunday's legislative election in France, followed by President Macron’s centrist alliance. The far-right National Rally came in third place, a surprising defeat considering the party’s historic scores in the first round of the legislative elections on June 30 and in the EU elections on June 9. With 181 seats for the left, against 159 for the presidential majority and 143 for the National Rally, the country's parliament is now divided into three distinct blocs. With none of the alliances...

Italy's prime minister, Giorgia Meloni, said no party in France emerged victorious in the just-concluded legislative elections, in which the far-right National Rally (RN) was beaten into third by a leftist coalition and President Emmanuel Macron's centrist bloc. The Italian leader's comments were part of reactions pouring from across Europe over the legislative election results, which saw Marine Le Pen's RN dramatically halted in what was thought could be a rise to power. Speaking in Washington on Monday, where she is attending the NATO summit, Meloni said that interpreting the results as a de...

The newly formed far-right alliance, launched just last week, has succeeded the previous far-right group in the European Parliament, Identity and Democracy (ID), which has now disbanded. The Patriots have swiftly expanded with many parties announcing last week that they would join theproject, culminating this morning in significant additions with France’s Rassemblement National (RN) and Italy’s Lega—two key former ID parties that were yet to join the group. While Lega was dominant within ID in the previous mandate, the largest delegation within the Patriots will be Marine Le Pen’s RN, with thi...

France's far-right National Rally (RN) on Sunday failed in its attempt to secure the most seats in the country's snap legislative elections but its leader and disappointed activists are keen to portray the defeat as a victory that sets them up well for the 2027 presidential election. "The National Rally today achieved the most important breakthrough in its entire history," RN leader Jordan Bardella said in a five-minute speech delivered a half hour after the exit poll showing his party was projected to come third behind the left-wing and centrist coalitions was released. The results of the bal...

Voting is under way and turnout levels very high in the second round of France's critical legislative elections. The first round saw the far-right National Rally top the legislative polls, nearly doubling its support, and leaving President Emmanuel Macron reeling. The National Rally gained just over 33.1% of votes cast making it the clear winner in a marked success for Le Pen’s party, formerly called the National Front. But despite the party nearly doubling its support since France last elected its National Assembly in 2022, it is not tipped in today's second round to secure a majority in the ...

According to the last polls before Sunday's second round of legislative elections, the far-right party National Rally (RN) of Jordan Bardella and Marine Le Pen will have a hard time reaching an absolute majority.

The absolute majority is fixed at 289 seats. The left-wing coalition, the New Popular Front (NFP), is expected to have between 170 and 200 seats.
