This week there was the first sitting of the 10th #EuropeanParliament

I made a chart of the Member States in relation to the Parliamentary Groups: the Member States are ranked from the most "leftist"to the most "rightist".

The North and the Mediterranean seem the most left-leaning.

Notes:
- I put non-Attached members in the center
- Slovakia got 6 MEPs from left-wing parties who were rejected by the European leftist parliamentary groups

(The hilarious thing is these are the voting lists for the EU election that happened a couple weeks ago. Thankfully, they send the voting envelopes separately first and you can download these lists online rather than wait for them to show up.)

@Jade
and I got a package each of these today.

What an emotional rollercoaster in #france this week! First the disastrous #europeanElection on Sunday, the #dissolution (wtf r u doin #macron?!) then the alliance LR/RN (not surprising but still shocking) and the #frontPopulaire, #ciottiVsLR 🫶🍿, tomorrow protests for #gaza, the elections, *and* #prideToulon 🏳️‍🌈 ...

I think I'll apply for one of those grants from the #Antifa LLC that everyone's talking about. At least Macron can rightfully claim to have gotten me a new full-time job! 😆

The night has long since
has given way to day

The rays shall light up the darkness
that fell upon us

Let love flood
all our hearts

The warmth that creeps in
warm it shall
the cold that surrounds us

So that the future
filled with love
becomes a better one

❤️ si_irini ❤️

A loving day to you all

Those who seek love can find it, no matter where, no matter in whom or what

* Big gains for far-right parties, especially in France and Germany
* Macron dissolved France's parliament to hold snap elections in a bid to retain any useful power
* Big losses for centrist parties and Greens, as voters apparently care more about the economy than the environment (and don't see the links between them)
* Aid to Ukraine seems unaffected for now

#EUPol #EuropeanElection

I'm not happy at all with #EuropeanElection results today.

A far right Europe has never brought happy days.
Very turbulent times are coming, and the timing for it couldn't be worse.

Ewww far right is the main winner in France. So ashamed of this country
