“The only way to be rebels is to be conservatives” the fact that people haven’t realised this for 60 years is wild to me

[@xouri8009]

It's kind of sad how no progressive party wants to curb migration seriously. Most Europeans are fairly centre left or centre right generally speaking, and migration is the hot topic at the moment. Most Europeans are also in favor of a more united europe, and most Europeans are also in favor of more regulated or limited migration (if the polls are correct), and yet... there's no party that Both wants a more united Europe AND less external-migration. Kind of strange.

[@balsdsa]

By design. Like sheep we are steered away from left policies by force. As a right-winger I cant say I like this kind of politics. Also, it made me consider voting with the craziest guys on the ballot.

[@Anthony-db7cs]

@@balsdsa Right wingers in the US would be considered lunatic terrorists in Europe. Europe right mostly just wants reduced migration. They don't want everyone to be cowboys with guns, outlaw abortion, underfund education/higher education, abandon NATO, or reinstate the death penalty. Americans only know the one line political scale because they're not bright enough to understand there is more than one axis to represent politics.

[@user-ge5ce2rr6p]

I know :( I want a party that considers EU federalisation but cut down on immigration and promote integration to foreign ethnic groups who migrate here

[@Aggoenix]

I would say this is actually true to Renew-Liberals. They want more integration, but are not uncritical of migration. Socialists and Greens are pushing migration, Liberals not that much. Liberals aim for more security+defense, economical growth, nuclear energy and they are softly anti immigration. They are not hard anti like Direct Democracy and Freedom, but definitely more than Socialists and Greens.

[@jakovvodanovic9165]

Renew is stricter on migration than leftist parties but wants a stronger EU

It was very heartwarming to hear about help for Belarus, but hearing the rest of their program makes me doubt that they are worth to vote them. Without treaty reform that includes QMV, common EU army and international policy its unlikely EU can help us much.

[@janchi_stephanchi]

ECR fights for efficient EU, what more could you wish for? I think the best way to create EU army is to first integrate the national armies, use the same gear and buy things together so its cheaper, faster change is unrealistic. And QMV sounds great, but basically means that 5 countries decide everything, more rational approach is supermajority where you need both 85% of countries and 85% of population. This would be something that ECR might consider, because it would fix the Orban problem without giving up too much sovereignty.

[@stelioslagg]

​@@janchi_stephanchiAnd how are they going to achieve a european army? By being pro veto and anti further European unification? They contradict themselves because the moment they try to implement anything Hungary or some other nation is going to veto it. European union cannot keep up while veto is being abused for political gain.

[@paul1979uk2000]

They seem to have many policies that conflict with each other, like they want more EU and don't want more EU, and too many things are left a bit vague, which doesn't encourage me to want to vote for them. As for Belarus, I wonder what the views are from the people of Belarus, we all know what the government thinks, but as we know, there are two sides to every story, the government and the people, if there is enough support among the people to want real change, then I can see merit in supporting that, but it won't be easy with the current government and because of Putin, which the last thing he will want is to lose Belarus, which for Putin, he sees them as a satellite state, basically, a country that does as it's told and does Putin's bidding, so unless there's a major uprising from the people, I don't see much changing.

Plus you need them as taxpayers. 3. Agreed, abolish useless bureaucracy but keep it in some sectors, for instance, good quality. We definitely have better food here almost anywhere thanks to European bureaucrats. 4. I wholeheartedly agree here. People shouldn't dream solely of good pay and mediocre jobs, they should be freelancers and entrepreneurs in tech and other sectors. We can definitely learn from the US on that one. 5. No to China.... Pretty complicated as we don't really share the same vision as the allies over the pond, but I definitely agree that ROC is the only China. PRC is definitely a cheap copy of China. Can't deny that we'll shoot ourselves in the leg if we stop doing trade with them, although here I would propose automation of European manufacturing so we can be competitive. 6. Mate, anyone shall be able to choose if they want a family or stay single. Do you mean something related to abortion here or what? 7. A bit vague, what do you mean by national tradition? 8. Again, please detail. 9. Pro defence: wholeheartedly agree again. 4% of GDP minimum. Cut welfare spending and let people have more sources of income and pay less tax. Also, privatise healthcare but still spend some money (subsidise few health services - ER and insuline caps for example). 10. Green manipulation. I am going to be honest, everything that is presented by the press and politicians seems very vague and mumbo jumbo on this one, although we can't deny that fossil fuels will run out at some point. I'll propose extraction of the same resources on other planets because, well, life does need carbon dioxide to exist. Sometimes even no pollution is bad. There has to be a balance. Although I would still allow fossil fuel cars on the road but require aeroplanes to run on more sustainable fuels, they pollute way more. Also impose some actual pollution controls on the big businesses that actually do pollute. Anything else that you missed and think shall be addressed by MEPs more?

And if the EU parliament disagrees they would care less. The EU is an evil body. It needs to go or have a proper constitution with a real parliament upper and lower chambers and executive branch.

This one is a mixed bag of good and bad proposals, i find some of their proposals very vague and not fully explained. So i would not say i'm against their good ones, but it does not give me confidence to vote for them.. These politicians need to be careful how to deal with immigration policies or it will backfire on their country and Europe as a whole.. Immigration is absolutely essential to keep the population numbers stable. But do deep checks on who you allow in or not.

[@uqs57bju]

Good on you for spotting that. Every politician who runs on populism alone is being vague on purpose. Shouting about a problem is easy and helps them. As soon as you mention a solution however, that's when they get judged. I have a feeling that ID is going to be way worse than ECR.

We need to increase the birth rate not import aliens to replace the local population

[@Mark-gd2ti]

Guy population numbers stable? What about completely destroying your country forever? Sorry guy most Europeans don't want to live in the migrant's country but on their own. All of that to pay some pensions? No thanks.

[@secretname4190]

Migration cannot fix a low birth rate. Migrant birth rates are below replacement as well. Increasing the birth rate is the most important issue.

[@user-ly1fk9kk9d]

Low birthrates is a scarecrow everyone sticked to without having clear reasons. We cry about low birthrates and, in the same time, why cry about insane rent prices and the impossibility to build yourself a house (while low birthrates can resolve that problem). The only real argument is that it will be hard to pay so many pensions when a big percentage is 60+. But people inevitably die one day or another and after it will be better. And even this is discussable if you ask me, because we are closer than ever to a society in which the man is not forced to work thanks to AI(and then pensions won't be a burden anymore).

ECR

[@AlexandruVoda]

0:43 For Romania, I will note there that while the Christian Democratic National Peasants Party(PNTCD) is officially the party which is a member of the ECR they are a historically important but half dead and irrelevant party today. However the AUR party intends to join the ECR and unfortunately they have a lot of percentages in polls. With the exception of the ID group which is more extreme, the ECR group is among the more EU-sceptic and more NATO-sceptic even if they have moderated their stance. And with Romania being an ex-Warsaw Pact country and a belligerent expansionist Russia next door, parties that go against EU unity and NATO unity, are a threat to stability and peace. I have grew with and seen personally how desperate everyone in this country was in the 90's for Romania to join both the EU and NATO and do everything possible to keep the Russians as far away as possible. And it worked. Narratives that claim NATO was taunting Russia by expanding are just false. It was the ex-Warsaw Pact countries that wanted to join (and would have sacrificed many things if needed just to be accepted) not the other way around. I think these lists of parties should be updated to also show parties with the intention to join, not just parties that are currently members of the groups.

ECR isn't anti-NATO. It was founded by David Cameron

[@AlexandruVoda]

@@tepesobrejac4360 By your avatar I conclude you are also from Romania. The only Romanian party aligned with the ECR worth mentioning is the AUR (an intention to join) even if they are not part of ECR yet. The PNTCD does not matter. Google "Liderul AUR, Claudiu Târziu, vrea anexarea unor teritorii din Ucraina și să ieșim din NATO". To translate for everyone else: "AUR lider(ex-president, currently leading member, number 5 on AUR's list of proposed MEPs for 2024), Claudiu Tarziu, wants [Romania] to annex territories that are part of Ukraine and for [Romania] to exit NATO". This happened in January this year. The AUR party is a threat to Romanias membership in NATO and therefore expose Romania to the threat of Russian expansionism. Since your avatar uses the same iconography of historical Romanian voievods as the AUR party uses in their current campaign, I assume you are aligned with AUR, so I will kindly ask you to * * * * off. As for thee ECR group as a whole, I did not say anti-NATO, I said NATO-sceptic. And with the USA itself being potentially anti-NATO if Trump wins, it is important for European countries to not just be in favour of NATO but also in favour of tighter military cooperation in Europe. Should the USA do the unthinkable and reject their responsibilities towards NATO, what is left of NATO(Europe and Canada) need to be even more integrated to compensate for the vacuum of leadership.

yes but we dont want to become one country because every country loses its power on laws we should have one political voice and good economic relations but laws should be made by every country themselves

[@Aggoenix]

@@kdkdndjfjdnn9168 So you basically confirmed that Europe will be divided and irrelevant, because there is no way to have one political voice with everyone making ONLY their own laws. Also USA which is far more integrated than the EU individual states make their own laws there, often absolutely unique. If we want to play first class economy/geopolitics in the world and stay sovereign we NEED to be united. Otherwise major powers like China+Russia will integrate you with their economical or hard power. Divide and conquer. I want my country to be sovereign, strong and relevant, thats exactly why i want it to be more integrated into the EU than nowadays. I disagree United States of Europe are bad. Each state will have its own language, culture, laws and voice. Turning EU into just economical block would be a huge step back and great thing for our rivals, who wish Europe to be disintegrated thats why they fund all these nationalistic eurosceptic parties.

[@paul1979uk2000]

Yeah, many of their policies were conflicting with each other, it makes it difficult to know where they stand when on the one hand, they want more EU but on the other, they want less. It's not exactly a clear message to send out to voters, and considering they've left so many areas vague, it looks like to me that they are intentionally leaving things vague to try and appeal to more voters on all sides but without really delivering on much when it comes to real policies, basically, I don't know what they stand for going on it's policies and that makes it difficult to vote for them.

[@paul1979uk2000]

@@kdkdndjfjdnn9168 We don't have to be one country, there are many ways of doing further integration, it's a question of finding the right way that works for the members and the people. But realistically, if we Europeans want to protect our interest and want our voice heard, we need to work closer together through the EU, otherwise, over the coming decades, we will become marginalised, our voice won't matter, that will hurt the economy and living standards. I think the reality of a changing world will force us to work closer together, so the question is finding the right solution that works well for us all.
