Everyone in the comments saying that the "left" needs to be stricter on immigration is not reading the news apparently. First of if you are anti human rights you are not left anymore. And if you allow the normalisation of right wing policy you are not left anymore. And if your left party suddenly starts shifting to the right noone votes for you anymore. True leftists are disappointed by you and right wingers won't stop voting for the true right.
Summarising left wing ideologies as pro-immigration is exactly the reason the far right is rising, but sure, go for another 40 years of the same politics, I'm sure it'll work eventually
Ouais, les nazis, c'est la faute a la gauche. C'est bien connu.
Serieux, les francais, c'est des petites merdes de racistes lol. Des raclures qui votent pour un tortionnaire ou un banquier. J'y avais des amis, je les ai tous perdus quand ils ont commencer a chier sur les bougnoules et les gitans qui nous volent notre travail. On me demande si je parle belge. Mes potes grecs evitent d'y aller car on les traite d'arabe.
Politics is not about winning. Sticking to your principles and your morals instead of selling out and supporting the death of thousands in the mediterranean sea and the middle east is worth more than winning some seats in parliament. There is no one reason the right is on the rise. Populism and giving in to the temptation of power are definitely leading factors though.
