Well, the Piratpartiet is the largest party among people younger than 30 years of age. The civil rights party (medborgarrätt). Only one that got a seat in the EU. I ask the question again. Is it possible to channel interest for civil rights against Human Destruction Inc. It should be. It is a little surprising that Swedish youth should lead the world in this respect.
Rick Falkvinge, the leader of the Piratparti, called the other established parties for "Gammelpartierna". Majority voters of all parties except Piratpartiet and Miljöpartiet are retirees. There is a generation gap. Interest for parties in the EU election is being phased out. Alliansen got slightly more votes than the red-greens totally which is good because of the EU chairmanship of Reinfeldt in July.
The voter turn out for Sweden went up a little (approx. 44%) but the voter turn out for the EU went down despite an intensive effort to stem this tide. Legitimacy of the EU project is falling according to the trend. The winds that blow in the EU are right wing. Some extreme right wing but mostly moderates. EPP-ED and ALDE got slightly less than half of the mandates. One thought is could President Obama's friendship with the Muslims create a voice for the extreme right in the EU?
