The EU election thread

[CountArach]

The Greens vote is up right across Europe at the expense of the Socialists. I wonder if we are seeing a generational movement towards a new moderate-left with an environmentalist bent amongst members of the left. More on that here:

Particularly among the young, green social democracy has become a new leftward movement, fueled in part by frustration with the mainstream system, and the recognition that environment damage, particularly climate change and natural resource depletion are the burden of the younger generation.

It will be interesting to see if this sort of thing can happen in national elections as well (Something similar is happening down here).

Oh, and how could I not mention that the Pirate Party have won a seat?
