EU election results outside the UK

Very interesting results from Italy.

The league now have around a third of the vote and won. Previously they have advocated a referendum on leaving the EU or Euro which they've now dropped. But instead their position is to disrupt the EU from within.

In France Marine Le Pens National Rally party are set to win too, with their antipathy to the EU.

In Austria the right wing FPO set to come third with 17%.

Even in prosperous Germany, the AfD are running at about 10%.

Looks like it isn't going to be a harmonious EU parliament in the next session.

The overall picture appears to be of a very, very slight shift in the balance of power to the Left overall.
The biggest changes are that on the right, the balance of power has shifted from the centre right a little more towards the far right and on the Left, it's shifted slightly from the centre left to the centre and far left parties.
