    First of all, these parties are hardly far-right. This is far right. This is not - and neither is this.

    This is an important (and very sad, of course) event, and it will certainly be politically interesting. We shall see how it plays out.

    I liked what I heard about Haider. I'm not as keen on Strache from what I understand of him. I am not Austrian or German, so my opinion isn't authoritative.

    I probably would have voted for one of those two parties if I was in Austria. I'm still unsure who to vote for here. I would love to have an FP or BZ here, but unfortunately we do not.
