Europe swings to the right — led by France

"Center-right and far-right parties are leading the way in the EU election.
Center-right and far-right parties are set to take the largest number of seats in Sunday’s European Union election in the most populous nations: Germany, France, Italy, Spain and Poland.
France led the rightward lurch with such a crushing victory for the far-right National Rally.
In Germany, the center-right is cruising to a comfortable victory, with the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) coming second and beating Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s Socialists into third place.
In Italy, Giorgia Meloni’s right-wing party secured the most support, projected to be about 28 percent.
The far-right is also expected to win in Hungary, and picked up five more seats in the Netherlands. The center-right was comfortably first in Greece and Bulgaria." Politico
