Interesting that the purported decline of European leftism seems to coincide with the beginning of their baby boom’s retirement and the rise of European Islamism.
it’s a little to late, there a little too gone.
It will be chaos of course, because it is unlikely that parts of Europe will accept Islam. It is very possible Europe will fall into chaos in the next 50 years.

....didn’t Churchill write a book called “While England Slept” pointing out his country’s ignoring the danger of facism?....somebody needs to re-write it...
It doesn’t matter which parties are elected.
The left has already established and expanded the huge bureacracies, filled them with other leftists.
And the bureacrats can’t be elected or deposed or defunded.
That’s where the real control is, in every western democracy and in most post-colonial countries.
Huge, parasitic bureacracies that nobody can get rid of.
Political parties are just window dressings.
Okay, call me cynical.
It’s a good trend for Europe, but of little comfort as our own country is about to throw herself into the Socialist abyss.
It won't go far and it won't last.
Wow! I was unaware that Red Ken had been defeated! Last I saw he was expected to hang on.
This is encouraging.
It never does. It should be pretty obvious to anyone that these things go in cycles, or more accurately, like a pendulum. When they get sick of the abuses and corruption of a left-wing government, they vote for a right-wing government, when they get sick of the abuses and corruption of the right-wing government, they vote in a left wing government. That’s how democracy works...
