“The overall trend is unmistakable: The far right is gaining ground,” said Matthijs Rooduijn, a politics professor at the University of Amsterdam. But recent elections have seen the far right increasingly usurp centrist conservatives as the main right-wing force. “But that potential upper limit just keeps increasing.”The far right is “no longer second fiddle to the main right-wing party. Centrists can sometimes cobble together coalitions to keep out the far right — even if those parties are smaller individually. Whereas in France, Le Pen was kept from victory in June-July parliamentary elections by an intricate network of tactical voting between erstwhile rivals.

The FPÖ is known as the grandfather of European far-right parties and pedals an anti-migrant, anti-Islam, Eurosceptic and anti-vaxx agenda. It has held power at a federal level three times, in coalition with other groupings, making it one of just a few far-right parties in Europe to have done so. AFP/Getty ImagesIts political stance changed again when Jörg Haider – the son of former Nazi party members – became leader of the party in 1986. FPÖ leader Herbert Kickl speaks to supporters ahead of European parliamentary elections on June 7. According to Reinhard, the FPÖ is more likely to form a government if it comes second than if it comes first.
