They vow to “destroy the Brussels monster from within” and then can’t even get their act together to cooperate and form a group in the European Parliament.

    And there was the Alliance for Freedom calling for a vote for the Ewroxettici, (twenty page brochure loaded with all the graphs and stats kev could get his hands on).

    Financed by the EU parliament.

    Meantime Grillo faces summary execution by his Movement for chumming up to Farage. Sent him scurrying to his nemesis Renzi to cooperate in Italy’s lower house.

    Must be the cunning plan; sabotage the workings by being pathetic, ineffective and perpetually absent.

    Do you expect collaboration from parties that have conflict as their central premise?

      And who’ll blame each other’s country as being in the way of their own domestic policy.

      There’s Le Pen crying foul at Salvini’s pressure to move immigrants on. Then they’ll smile and pose together for the cameras.

      Now wait for a barrage of observations to my inhibited brain, restricted flow of information to my neurons etc.

    But of course this is expected. They hate each other’s guts.

    and then they said that Joseph can get his act together…..

    Pity Lowell didn’t get elected. He would have divided them even further. Wilders is staunchly pro Israel, while Lowell calls its people “grieden tad-drenagg”

    Le Pen is somewhere in the middle, trying to make forget her father’s Holocaust denial past to prove she’s not exactly a Nazi. Would have been a next to impossible balancing act for the Le Pen daughter.

    But then again, deciding who should be hated and who should not isn’t exactly a unifying mission.

    In reality you are wrong, as UKIP’s Farrage and M5S’s Grillo have formed their own group. Besides the European Conservatives including the UK Conservatives are set to become the third largest group in the European parliament. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-27993210

    They missed Freddi Sant and Joey Muscat…

    Well, if only the PL had been kicked out of the centre left grouping they probably would have been the obvious choice. But seeing as the centre left has not yet woken up to the fact that the PL are Nationalist, they are still two short.

  9. Unless heads of government and members of the European Parliament stop fighting for power over the Brussels bureaucracy that knows how to look after itself, and pay more attention and respect to the aspirations of the people of the nations that constitute the European Union, there will be no need for any extreme right or left group to encourage Euroscepticism.

    Apparently they have gone a bit too far right to get things right the first time round. RIght ?
