⚠️ Important context:
While support for rejoining is clear, polls also show Britons are against rejoining if it means giving up past opt-outs. At the same time, polls show that EU citizens oppose the UK rejoining if those opt-outs are kept, making the path back far more complex
Should the UK rejoin?

🇬🇧🇪🇺 Should the UK Rejoin the EU? ❓

A recent poll shows a majority of Britons now support rejoining the European Union. 📊
🔹 55% would vote to rejoin the EU
🔹 33% would vote to stay out
➡️ A +22% net support for EU membership

🔄 An important shift, but not Orbán 2.0
While some compare Radev to Viktor Orbán, his likely governing style aligns more with Slovakia’s Robert Fico, someone often critical of EU policies and against further sanctions towards Russia, but more pragmatic and unlikely to weaponize veto power.

🆕 A new force in Bulgarian politics
Radev, a former Air Force commander and president, only launched PB this year. His campaign focused on anti-corruption, stability, and restoring state capacity after years of repeated elections.

📊 Why a majority with 45%?
Bulgaria’s 4% electoral threshold proved decisive, with multiple smaller parties falling just short (many by less than 1%).
These "lost votes" allowed PB to convert its plurality into a full parliamentary majority.

🔹 GERB-SDS (EPP)
The long dominant bloc falls to 15%, marking one of its weakest performances in Bulgarian politics.

🔵 PP–DB (EPP & Renew)
The coalition trails far behind from PB as well with 15%, failing to present a unified alternative amid voter fatigue.

🟢 PROGRESSIVE BULGARIA (PB)
Rumen Radev’s newly founded party wins 45% of the vote, securing an outright parliamentary majority. Formed just months after Radev stepped down as president, PB capitalizes on public frustration with years of instability and weak coalitions.

🇧🇬 Bulgaria delivers a political shock, with PB sweeping to victory and reshaping the country’s political landscape.

Bulgaria may pursue a more “pragmatic” European line, balancing EU integration with a more "cautious" stance on Ukraine and relations with Russia, while still participating in Europe

As Bulgarians head to the polls once again, what did the polls suggest, and what are the key positions of each party? 📊🇧🇬

🇭🇺 Hungary delivers a political earthquake, with TISZA sweeping to a historic victory and ending Orbán’s 16-year rule.
🔵 TISZA (EPP)
Péter Magyar’s party wins big with 54% of the vote, translating into over 2/3rds of seats, providing TISZA a constitutional majority that allows constitutional reforms

Hungary’s Fall from Democracy 📉🇭🇺

After the end of the communist state in 1989, Hungary experienced decades of stable and high democratic quality. However, following the return of Fidesz to power in 2010, the country has seen a steady and significant democratic decline.

According to a recent poll, the upcoming Hungarian election could be heading toward a major upset, with TISZA emerging as the clear frontrunner. 🇭🇺📊

🏆 Leading in the race: TISZA holds a strong 78.5% winning probability
📉 Trailing behind: Fidesz stands at 17.7% winning odds
