Summary: Results of the European Parliament election of June 2024 saw a strong performance by populist right-wing and far-right parties in many EU member-states, propelled by opposition to the Green Deal, anti-migration sentiment and economic insecurity. Across the EU, the vote share of parties to the right of the conservative European People's Party (EPP) rose from 18 per cent in 2019 to just over 24 per cent if we include hard-right parties currently sitting in the non-attached group. The stronger presence of far-right and populist right-wing MEPs in the new Parliament will influence the EU's agenda and legislation over the next five years, and the election results are bound to leave their mark on European politics more broadly. CER experts provide answers to pressing questions on what the results will mean for EU politics and for individual policy areas |
