Along with what cfgaussian said, the Netherlands also gets warnings of us becoming a “narco-state”. The ports of Antwerp and Holland competing like in the good old days haha.

Babiš and his party have seemed to drift a lot in policy stances over the last 20 years, I mean he’s had coalitions with the Communist Party at one point. Their right-wing designation comes from being queerphobic, xenophobic and anti-environmentalist under the guises of ‘anti-euroliberalism’ and ‘national sovereignty’. Foreign-policy-wise he’s a true centrist, as well as being a unabashed Zionist, go figure.

Babiš publicly profiles himself as a conservative and his party sits in EU Parliament under the same grouping as all of Europe’s “mainstream far-right parties”, Patriots for Europe.

Regarding promises of welfare spending, I want to point out that Geert Wilders in the Netherlands has often promised the same things in the past, but then his party votes for austerity every time, in government or in opposition. The Law and Justice Party in Poland also talks about a strong social safety net, mainly to distinguish themselves from the neoliberal opposition.

These people are offering a deal of sorts: they promise social benefits in return for loyalty to the big strongman against ‘the elites’, which shields them against criminal investigations. If not social benefits, then the power fantasy of ‘owning the libs’ that they feel wronged by.

On the far right, SPD

Heh.
