"""""The really significant thing about Sunday night, though, was that Ukip’s victory was merely part of a wider trend. Across the Continent, millions of voters have turned their backs on the European political elite.
The bare facts make extraordinary reading. In France, the governing Socialist Party, crippled by the wretched performance of President Francois Hollande, sank to just 14 per cent of the vote, while the big winners were Marine Le Pen’s openly Far Right National Front, which took a record 25 per cent.
Given France’s unusual circumstances — a Socialist government sunk in economic stagnation, a mainstream Right discredited by posturing former president Nicolas Sarkozy — it might be tempting to dismiss Madame Le Pen’s triumph as a local fluke.
But the results elsewhere tell a different story. Just look at the picture in Scandinavia, which is so often held up as a model of European democracy.
In steady, sensible Denmark, the Far Right stormed to victory, winning almost 27 per cent of the vote and doubling its number of MEPs.
In moderate, well-meaning Sweden, the populist Far Right Sweden Democrats won their first ever European seat. Even the Finns clambered aboard the anti-European bandwagon, with the anti-immigration Finns Party doubling its number of MEPs.
EU elections: Far-right National Front triumph in France
Golden Dawn: The success of the Greek far-Right party could hardly be a more damning sign of the gulf between Europe¿s governing elite and the ordinary people they lead

And then there is Greece, battered and bruised after the unprecedented austerity of the past few years, with unemployment at almost 30 per cent and many experts predicting it will take 20 years to rebuild its economy.
The Greeks have paid a terribly high price, not merely for their own disastrous profligacy, but for the European elite’s determination to preserve the euro. And now we are seeing the political consequences.
With 26 per cent of the vote, it was the Far Left, anti-austerity, anti-European Syriza party that topped the polls.
But even more shocking was the performance of the nakedly neo-Nazi Golden Dawn party, which has won almost 10 per cent of the vote and will send three MEPs to Brussels.
The success of Golden Dawn could hardly be a more damning sign of the gulf between Europe’s governing elite and the ordinary people they lead.
This is a party that has brawled, robbed and murdered its way across Greece. A third of its leadership is in prison. Yet one in ten Greeks still saw fit to entrust it with their votes.
One factor in all this, of course, is a Continent-wide reaction against recession and austerity.
In much of southern Europe, Brussels and Berlin have never been forgiven for their indifference to the economic suffering of millions of ordinary people.
Three years ago, German Chancellor Angela Merkel told her country’s parliamentarians that only the euro could ensure ‘another half-century of peace in Europe’.
‘If the euro collapses, Europe collapses,’ she added. ‘That can’t happen.’
So it was that the Greeks — as well as the Irish, the Portuguese and the Spanish — were forced to pay a heavy price in unemployment for the survival of the single currency.
Little wonder, then, that so many of them have taken out their frustrations at the ballot box.
But there is, I think, a bigger story. For decades, Europe’s politicians have insisted that only closer political and economic union can bring lasting peace and prosperity.
So it is that the EU has steadily and silently accumulated more responsibilities and more power, to the fury of observers on both sides of the political spectrum.
And at every turn, whatever problems have presented themselves, the political elite’s answer has always been the same: more Europe.
The fact is, however, that millions of people do not want more Europe.
Most people like the idea of a common market, but they are outraged by the EU’s flagrant corruption and infuriated that they are never given a real say in its direction and policies.
Yet when they try to object, they are dismissed as racists and xenophobes (which most are not) or simply ignored"""""
