>No. More like central or Western European parties.

That couldn't be more vague. That's like saying I want a car like the ones in that parking lot over there.

You have no idea that some parties in Poland, Hungary or Romania would make Donald Trump look left wing.

When I asked you what type of left parties you claim are lacking, I expected to hear the exact policies you want but are lacking, not pointing at random parties that not everyone knows.

And we've have enough left wing and green policies in Europe since they're the ones who championed the "refugees welcome" open borders problem, gas dependence on Russian gas and denuclearisation.

That’s why I then gave examples ;)

You’re now talking about nationalist parties.

But yes, I do agree that there are right wing leaning counties in Central Europe as well.

To be honest, it feels like the whole world is heading that way right now.
