Today Socialists would gain the largest number of seats into the Parliament, but anti-European movements are growing
by Emiliano Biaggio
Party of European Socialists (PES) is the first European party, according to a poll published today by PollWatch2014, the initiative launched by VoteWatch Europe and Burson-Marsteller/Europe Decides in the light of the next European elections. On May European citizens across the EU are called to elect the new European Parliament, where at the moment the biggest party is the European Popular Party (EPP). The latter could risk to loose their leadership as the majority of the European citizens told PollWatch2014 they want to vote for PES. According to the poll Socialists would gain 221 seats compared to the 202 got by EPP. A clear message for the EPP headquarters, where is still unclear who'll be the candidate who will run for the presidency of the European Commission. It seems that this provisional result shown by the poll depends on the fact the Party of European Socialist has already an official candidate (Martin Schulz). In general it seems the real winners of the next European elections will be the euro-skeptic groups, since the three main political parties are supposed to loose their power. According to PollWatch2014, compared to the current situation EPP, PES and ALDE together will loose in total around 7% of the seats (from 72% to 65%).
