new polling out today predicts a �*sharp turn to the right�* in the european parliamentary elections this summer. the "anti—european" populists are forcecast to finish first, in at least nine eu member states. and that would reshape eu policy making in the midst of an already fraught period. today it was the french farmers protesting at the european parliament. we have seen similar protests in italy. and in germany. at the heart of it, a cost of living crisis, and a green transition that adds further uncertainty. more broadly, though is a theme across europe that we have heard again and again in the united states. the idea that government is too remote, too detached from the lives of ordinary people. the polling comes the european council on foreign relations, the reports co—author is kevin cunningham who joins us from dublin.

what the outcomes is very significant shift which is interesting because normally between european elections when the left—wing party increases in one country and my another, what is particularly interesting with this research is that it shows that there is a cross of europe, every significant shift towards right—wing parties to the right of the centre right that is part is in the id groupings and it is important because it means that various different policies that would not of been achievable in previous parliaments are now much more likely to be possible. we parliaments are now much more likely to be possible-— to be possible. we overlooked in this country _ to be possible. we overlooked in this country the _ to be possible. we overlooked in this country the role _ to be possible. we overlooked in this country the role of— to be possible. we overlooked in this country the role of the - this country the role of the parliament and the power of the blocks of dented and if they change and if they start to look more hard right and centre centre left, how

does that affect eu policymaking going forward?— going forward? there's two particular— going forward? there's two particular coalitions - going forward? there's two particular coalitions that i going forward? there's two l particular coalitions that have going forward? there's two - particular coalitions that have been important to european politics in the grand coalition which is the centre left in the centre right which has been criticalfor centre left in the centre right which has been critical for passing budgets european parliament and the fact that that is shrinking men's budgets are going to be more difficult. another coalition which is including the left in the centre and the further left has been quite critical in passing climate change laws we used our data to understand what the impact of passing the restoration laws early last year and that passed by majority 12 which we can make the same piece of legislation is sought to pass in the next parliament, it would fail to pass by 80. but it's very

significant to pass any legislation on climate change and the issue of social affairs and perhaps also issues pertaining to democracy which are particularly relevant with al. you study trends in things like this, i was looking at the polling in new hampshire in eight out of ten of those who voted for donald trump said they were angry and when he is angry on stage, and when he focuses on the political lead, it tends to resonate with the voters in i was saying something similar with european politicians adopting that same strategy here?— european politicians adopting that same strategy here? there's been an enormous lurch _ same strategy here? there's been an enormous lurch to _ same strategy here? there's been an enormous lurch to the _ same strategy here? there's been an enormous lurch to the right - same strategy here? there's been an enormous lurch to the right in - same strategy here? there's been an enormous lurch to the right in the - enormous lurch to the right in the united _ enormous lurch to the right in the united states and the question is why. _ united states and the question is why. how— united states and the question is why, how do you diagnose a sickness

european security and democracy is crucial to long—term security and prosperity of the united states and where it is linked and if we do not make that case, he is going to lose the core idea of his presidency and the core idea of his presidency and the rationale which assists protecting democracy expanding opportunities and the like in the demagogues, they want the alternate vision and they do want to break up europe, they want to see russia invade ukraine and to cover sovereign and independent democracies through group military force and it's going to be a very bright dividing line betweenjoe biden and donald trump led to believe they support the biden vision that doesn't necessarily mean that they're going to be motivated by it but there going to have to continue to make that case for all of us. ~ , ., of us. will there be a coalition still of the _ of us. will there be a coalition still of the willing _ of us. will there be a coalition still of the willing within -

legislation which until now spent quite remarkable to bash the european parliament considering you have people very different nationalities in different political perspectives in the european parliament is been very good at working through those differences and with us continue to change and remember, the significant changes to thousand i9 and people thought the peak of populism was drawn to the 17 2018. 2019 european politics had a lot of that and this is a step further again, lot of that and this is a step furtheragain, it lot of that and this is a step further again, it shows how it's really moving at a pace and to take up made earlier, i think this is not just support coming from centreleft parties and if it was just working—class voters would only be concerned with economic issues, it

will be easier and straightforward to figure out how to address it but we are seeing is the first wave in 2060 and the advancement of the radical right is the damage the centreleft reversing today across europe is the radical right is cannibalising the centre—right and taking over the centre—right parties and take for replacing them entirely. in a very different dynamic. a, entirely. in a very different dynamic-— entirely. in a very different dynamic. entirely. in a very different d namic. �* , , dynamic. a very interesting point about nursing — dynamic. a very interesting point about nursing an _ dynamic. a very interesting point about nursing an american - dynamic. a very interesting point about nursing an american with l about nursing an american with donald trump plus was ownership of the republican party. taste donald trump plus was ownership of the republican party.— donald trump plus was ownership of the republican party. we have seen, and b the the republican party. we have seen, and by the way. _ the republican party. we have seen, and by the way. i _ the republican party. we have seen, and by the way, i would _ the republican party. we have seen, and by the way, i would argue - the republican party. we have seen, and by the way, i would argue with i and by the way, i would argue with that at— and by the way, i would argue with that at this — and by the way, i would argue with that at this point, the president is sovereign against nikki haley, he is running _

i don't need to remind any brits who travel to the states that this is the country that uses lukewarm water and those rather opaque tea bags that don't properly diffuse. it's a bit like us lecturing americans on baseball. 0r hotdogs. anyway, michelle francl, a professor of chemistry at bryn mawr college, says... wait for it... ..the perfect cuppa requires a pinch of salt ? and an energetic squeezing of the teabag. i will let that stew for a second. while i read you the more diplomatic response from the us embassy today, who at least accept this has put them in hot water.

it's a case of better late than never for nine—year—old akita—cross humbug. he's spent almost his entire life at an animal sanctuary the in outside kennels. well, now he's experiencing a warm home for the first time, thanks to his new owners, ken and sandra. he loves it. absolutely loves it. he has two beds. he has one up on the landing, he has one downstairs at the side of the radiator. he's just fit in so well. but despite humbug's close bond with ken, it has come as a bit of a surprise, as part of the reason he was so difficult to rehome was because of his fear of strangers. after nine years, he needs a proper home. he's loved already. voiceover: for more stories from across the uk, head - to the bbc news website. you're live with bbc news. now it's time for the panel.

for assessing the damage that was left. but it was a slightly quieter story with the winds gradually easing down. we did actually see some brief glimpses of sunshine, not a bad afternoon in hexham, northumberland. and as we go through the evening and overnight, the winds will continue to ease. we've got these weather fronts starting to slowly drift in from the west. they'll bring outbreaks of rain, but they will also introduce this south—westerly flow, which is driving milder air right across the country. so there'll be a lot of clouds to start the day on thursday. outbreaks of drizzle, misty conditions along west coasts and some rain moving out of northern ireland into northern scotland. but by the afternoon, most of the persistent rain will have eased away. it will stay damp and drizzly with a few showers out to the west. but an incredibly mild story for all of us. 13 celsius in london — at this time of year, we should be seeing temperatures around 7—8 celsius. there will be some showery outbreaks of rain into northern england. hopefully a brighter story into the afternoon for northern ireland. mild here, and still very mild particularly in comparison to where we were just over a week ago in scotland, highs of 10—12 celsius. now, through thursday night into the early hours of friday morning, there'll be a spell of heavier, more persistent rain, as the cold front starts

to push its way steadily eastwards. hopefully that will clear away from east anglia. here, it will be a mild start on friday morning. clearer skies, fresher conditions, lt—s celsius in the far north and west. but that's where we'll have the best of the sunshine. and on the whole, a ridge of high pressure will build on friday, keeping things largely fine and quiet. a few scattered showers along north and west—facing coasts of scotland and northern ireland. a little bit fresher here, but generally those temperatures above where they should be for the time of year still, at around 6—12 celisus. into the start of the weekend, england and wales still under this influence of high pressure, quiet and dry. toppling across the high, we'll see weather fronts. so as we look further ahead, there's always the risk of some wetter and windier weather into the far north and west, nowhere near as severe as it has been. and on the whole, that mild trend is going to stay with us. the best of any sunshine certainly across central and southern areas, but not a bad weekend

ahead for most.
