A month after the EU elections, the new far-right Patriot's group is the only one remaining to be constituted. The emergence of the new far-right alliance "Patriots for Europe," founded by Viktor Orbán’s Fidesz and former Czech premier Andrej Babis's ANO, reshuffled the cards in the far-right pack. Heralded from a Viennese hotel last weekend with the clear intention of becoming the largest right-wing group in the European Parliament, the alliance began drawing parties from the orbit of the Identity and Democracy (ID) group, such as founder party the Austrian Freedom Party (FPÖ) and later last ...

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...

A coalition of the French left has won the most seats in the second round of high-stakes legislative elections, beating back the far-right surge but failing to win an outright majority. According to the final results, the left-wing New Popular Front alliance, formed just three weeks ago, has won 182 seats. 289 seats are needed for a majority in the 577-seat National Assembly. President Emmanuel Macron's centrist Ensemble (Together) coalition came in second with 168 while the far-right National Rally, widely tipped to win after coming out on top in the first round, finished with 143 seats.

The exit poll of the second round of parliamentary elections in France on Sunday indicated a surprising win for the left-wing alliance and a neck-and-neck race for second place between the governing liberal alliance and the once-favoured hard-right National Rally (RN), causing widespread relief in Germany. Prominent members of the Greens, part of the ruling coalition in the neighbouring country, were among the first to react on social media platforms. The party's first political secretary, Emily Büning, posted on X: "Vive la France! Great joy!" "After the UK, the people in France are now also ...

France’s snap legislative vote, set to conclude this evening, has raised a whole host of political uncertainties. After a decisive success in last month’s European elections, politicians from the National Rally could be set for a victory on home soil. Others believe that thanks to alliances between more moderate politicians, the far-right may take less ground than predicted. While this question has been hotly debated in recent weeks, one — more unusual — talking point has started to emerge. This concerns the direct fate of France’s main political figure, President Emmanuel Macron. Pierre Mazea...

Voting is underway in the second round of France's critical legislative elections, with turnout at the highest rate since 1981 by midday today. The stakes are high for Marine le Pen's National Rally, which could produce France's first far-right government since World War II. The polls suggest Le Pen's her protege Jordan Bardella's party and its allies are unlikely to win an absolute majority, but that they could garner support from centrist and right-wing maverick voters. With a hung parliament likely, months of gruelling political wrangling may lie ahead. Keep up to date with all the latest n...

Two European elections are threatening to greatly elevate the hardline right in two countries that have until now deprived it of a breakout moment. In France’s snap legislative elections, Marine Le Pen’s National Rally (RN) topped the polls in last weekend’s first round, giving it a strong chance of winning enough seats to force Emmanuel Macron to “cohabit” with it in government. Meanwhile, the British election this week is expected to see a surge for Nigel Farage’s Reform UK, a rebranded version of his former Brexit Party. While the UK’s electoral system means it may only win one seat, it loo...

Candidates from France's centrist and left-wing parties have rallied together to try and prevent Marine Le Pen's National Rally from gaining power.
