A new poll released by Germany’s Bild newspaper on Saturday, conducted in six countries in late February and early March, showed the far-right Europe of Nations and Freedom Group (ENF) was likely to win 67 seats in the European Parliament election in May.
Europeans go to the polls on May 23-26 to elect representatives to the 705-seat European Parliament. Currently, the ENF group holds 37 seats.
According to the Bild report, which surveyed more than 9,000 people, right-wing euroskeptic parties are in the lead in three of the six countries surveyed.
In France, Marine Le Pen’s National Rally party is likely to receive 23 percent of the vote. In Italy, Matteo Salvini’s League is poised to win 33 percent of the vote. In Poland, Jaroslaw Kaczynski’s Law and Justice, which is not a member of the ENF group, is on pace to secure 42 percent.

Far right in the eu. Not sure if that’s good or bad without a program over there.
OF COURSE the Europe of Nations and Freedom Group is FAR right, right?

What the plain ‘ol right?
I never hear anything about them. EVER!
A lot like the “far left”. I never hear anything about them either.
What gives?
These days, “far right” means “pretty such sane.”
“In this case, “far right” means they don’t hate themselves for being European.”
That pretty much sums up the American media too.
This may make it easier for the UK to get a better Brexit deal.

By "far right" they mean "Euroskeptic". Thanks Olog-hai.
Anyone not in favor of demographic replacement is “far right” to them.
In Europe, far right is Fascism; far left is Communism.
Far Right to the media is that you as a voter want to keep your nation.
That’s the media line. Of course, the truth about fascism is how far left it is; Mussolini’s fascist speeches about social justice, wealth redistribution and the non-existence of God are straight out of Marxism.
