German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s grand coalition government was plunged into turmoil Sunday when the leader of the Social Democrats resigned abruptly under pressure after her center-left party suffered a humiliating defeat in last week’s European Parliament elections.
Andrea Nahles, the first woman to head Germany’s oldest party, announced she would quit as party chairwoman, parliamentary floor leader and even give up her seat in the German parliament after her attempt to snuff out a brewing rebellion over the party’s frightening slide backfired.

Thanks ameribbean expat. Wake me when that Stasi bitch is forced out of office.
All are in talks to form a team of international nationalist leaders.
<><> In France, President Emmanuel Macron's party suffered an embarrassing defeat to nationalist Marine Le Pen.
<><>In the U.K., Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage won a landslide victory in the EU Parliament,
leading a Trump-like party that was established just six weeks ago.
<><>It appears likely Boris Johnson, the Trump-like former mayor of London, will emerge as the new prime minister of Britain.
<><>In Italy, Matteo Salvini's nationalist party became one of the leaders
of the EU Parliament, winning an astounding 28 seats.
(It's the open borders, Merkel......you obviousy need help figuring it out.)
Didn’t Merkel say she was staying on until 2021 ,LOL
The cheese stands alone.
“The new EU political stars are Salvini, Le Pen, Farage and Hungary’s nationalist Prime Minister Viktor Orban.”
Let us know when they actually take over.
Salvini and Orban did, as did the Poles along the same lines.
I’ve been telling people the EU elections last week were the most important in 2000 years.
More important than Reagan, Trump or Lincoln.
The last vestige of the Hapsburg Empire is going to be thrown out of power by The People.
The Empire that started WW1 and set the stage for WW2.
Schmierkase.
Do you have a current list, including Australia, of nationalist/populist governments world-wide?
Don’t forget, places like Canada have also elected nationalist legislatures and this puts pressure on their heads of state in upcoming elections.
Recently, I think the count was about 14-16. Have been looking for verification.
It’s happening so fast......I have not come across a definitive list, as yet.
Not her far-left party?
Yeah. I’m pretty sure it was 14 before Australia and the EU elections. Includes Central Europe.
