[OFF TOPIC] Politics Thread

[Federer91 2,904]

Today we had the second round of our presidential election and for the first time since its establishment in 2007, our ruling party GERB didn't win the election. In 9 years they won 3 Parliamentary, 3 European, 1 Presidential and 3 Local elections. It didn't help that they chose the most unpopular candidate this time. Our new president will be former Air-force General Rumen Radev, who ran with the backing of the socialist party, but i think a big portion of thepeople, voted for him, because of his individual persona.  

 

Nevertheless this is another point for the more nationalistic side of the tide. After Trump, now we, i think a socialist will also win in Moldova today, it pegs the question will these nationalistic wins continue with Norbert Hofer in Austria in a couple of weeks.

Not quite.  Firstly, it was a president election, and here the president doesn't have that much power. And the new president seems to be in the middle, he is as much pro-russian as pro-european. After all he was NATO general for many years, it seems highly unlikely he wants to desert them with ease 

 

Secondly, our PM acted like a complete baby this whole campaign and didn't take it so seriously, which had a big effect on the election results. The majority of the nation is still very pro-european, they just didn't like the whole attitude our Prime Minister showed this year.

Like most people, to hopefully not let the entire world go insane  

 

To add in the insanity, we might see a victory for Geert Wilders (our local idiot) in the Dutch elections next year..it depends on how much of those "OMG MIGRANTS KILL EVERYONE" losers will actually vote on him in the end

And we'll have a german election where AfD will most likely get a bunch of seats.

At least Fremskridtspartiet in Norway seems to be losing votes, and if we end up with an election in Denmark (which doesn't seem too unlikely), our nationalist populists aren't looking too good either. Sadly it seems like an even worse populist party may get some seats.

In Portugal, I don't think we have to worry, at least for now.

 

Our nationalist party has very few votes, they did an anti-Islam-immigration parade in the streets of Lisbon a few days ago (as if we had many Muslims immigrants, we don't, our immigrants are mostly from our ex-colonies in Africa) and they managed to get a whole 70 guys (yes, seventy) for that parade. 

 

And they are generally mocked on social media and by our humourists. They managed to put this campaign sign in Lisbon's central square:

 

"Enough of immigration! Nationalism is the solution!
[airplane] Have a nice flight! [flight to their home land, intended for the immigrants]
Portugal to theportuguese!"

And our main humorists put their own "campaign sign" next to it:

"More immigration!
The best way of pissing off foreigners is to make them live in Portugal!
[airplane] Welcome!
We will never gonna made it using only portugueses. Nationalism is just stupid."

For being a nationalist in Portugal, is obligatory to have that beard/Moustache?
