This is my result restricted to Italy. Very proud of it :D Interestengly, there are a lot of parties to which I would align better, and it looks like the one I'm more similar to is in Netherlands, and it is this famous PvdA @heywoodu is nicely talking about

We have very similar results :p Btw, it's very sad for me don't see Volt on the italian ballot paper, let's hope that they will won some set in Germany or/and Netherlands :fingers:

Ugh, the inevitable "Immigration to the Netherlands should be made harder" question. Yes, I think it should, but yes, I also 'cut my own fingers' with that (because non-European girlfriend), which leads to the question: should I let my own personal situation 'win' over what I think is best for the country in general? :p 

 

I wish every single person in the world would ask themselves this kind of questions when they're going to cast their votes for a party/candidate. :wub:

Irrespective of their answer on a determined topic, which is personal and I choose to respect unless is something that leads toward hate crimes or disrespect of basic human rights, I at least can be assured they are willing to look for a reason behind their positions and beliefs.

That result is as left-wing as can be :yikes: (almost, SP would be even more left)

I feel very uncomfortable with PvdA, so that's definitely not gonna be it. Food for thought.

I don’t know a lot about Dutch politics, but from the PvdA Wikipedia page I’d say that’s who I’d vote for...without knowing much about any other social democratic, anarchist, and socialist Dutch Parties

I took the poll/survey linked earlier, here are my results 

For Denmark @wumo26 @Agger:

Spoiler

Wasn’t surprised by the results that much. I’ve known for a few years that I agree with the Northern European Green Parties and Social Parties.

 

For Netherlands @heywoodu :

Spoiler

Apparently I’m center-left in the Netherlands? I’d love to hear your thoughts.

 

For Italy @AlFHg :

Spoiler

Look’s like we’d make good political partners.

 

And finally, For Slovakia @hckosice :

I would not do well in the Slovakian political landscape apparently :dunno:

Center-left, yes. Sidenote: DENK is actually a Turkish party mostly, pretty widely accused of being 'the long arm of Erdogan'. The only party I am absolutely not voting for no matter the arguments on issues.

where did you find this ? and what exactly this is ?

 

Because there absolutely no chance the Hungarian party finish or be ranked 2nd in Slovakia. Absolutely any chance. You can bet whatever you want ! :lol:

 

and I am afraid the neo-nazis dickheds will finish much higher than with 36 % (they are too much popular among the first voters and brainwashed youngs)

I think you misinterpreted my post there :p. That’s a measure of what Slovakian parties fit me, of which the answer is apparently none. I always knew I liked Slovenia more...

    • Someone please tell me every single athlete who didn't qualify for the big air final has at least one more event to go? The chance of athletes' Olympics being done before the opening ceremony would be utterly ridiculous...
    • Don't know what they were saying to each other, but one thing on time management is that there is never any debate in : they just instantly agree with what the other is planning to do.
