[Martinus]

Good riddance to the racist fucks. May this be the promise of Europe starting to lean left again. 

[Martinus]

This is a disaster!

1. Cut this stuff already.

2. Why this is a disaster?

[Martinus]

Hooray!

Why would Denmark sponging money off of the productive states in the EU make you happy?

Denmark is one of the few countries in the world with effectively no budget deficit. It also is not part of the Eurozone. Are you spouting this bullshit just to show how stupid you are or is there a deeper meaning to it?

It's an homage to Weatherdan.

[Duque de Bragança]

Does it mean Denmark will end up as Malmö in a few years time?

[jimmy olsen]

If only King Wilhelm had accepted Denmark's offer of joining the German Confederation, this could have all been avoided. :shakeshead:

No, it just means that it's easy for a small, racially homogenous and somewhat productive land to adopt leftist policies provided that they have a larger, wealthy neighbour that maintains more sound policies.

You sure are a stupid faggot that likes to read too much into statements.  You should kill yourself today.

Social Democrat leader Helle Thorning-Schmidt put an end to a decade in opposition for her party tonight, when her centre-left coalition mustered enough votes to win a slim five-vote majority in parliament.

The electoral win puts a woman in the prime minister's office for the first time in Danish history while at the same time ousting the Liberal-Conservative government, and its backers in the right-wing Danish People's Party.

Addressing a crowd late Thursday evening Thorning-Schmidt proclaimed "we did it".

"Today is change-day in Denmark.  The Social Democrats are ready to work," Thorning-Schmidt told a crowd of party faithful gathered at Copenhagen's Vega concert hall.

The centre-left had campaigned on a platform of reinvigorating the social welfare state, and in her acceptance speech Thorning-Schmidt pledged to work for a society that "included everyone, and where everyone got a second chance – and another second chance".

Continuing a theme that has laced this general election, Thorning-Schmidt also pledged to seek broad-based compromise and called on "everyone", politicians and ordinary voters alike, to take part in that effort.

The new Social Democrat-led government and its allies are projected to have won control of 92 seats in the 179-member parliament. The Liberal-led alliance of now-former PM Lars Løkke Rasmussen is forecast to end with 87 seats.

Election night proved bittersweet for Rasmussen. Despite the centre-right bloc being forced into opposition, his Liberal party surpassed the Social Democrats to become parliament's largest party with 47 seats, one more seat than the party earned in 2007.

The strong result had Rasmussen cautioning Thorning-Schmidt not to get too comfortable in her position.

"Take care of the keys to the Prime Minister's Office, they are only yours to borrow," Rasmussen said during his concession speech.

While it was Thorning-Schmit that claimed victory as the country's new leader, it was two of her allied parties, the centrist Social Liberals and the far-left Red-Green Alliance that were the election night's biggest winners.

Both parties more than doubled their representation in parliament and will wield significant influence over a minority Social Democrats-Socialist People's Party government.

Also adding seats was the Liberal Alliance, a centre-right party supporting lower taxes and a smaller state.

Both the Social Democrats and the Socialist People's Party lost seats in the election, as did the Danish People's Party – the first time the party has suffered an electoral setback since entering parliament in 1998.

Part of the responsibility for the centre-right's defeat is also due to be pinned on the Conservatives, who lost more than half of their representation and is now parliament's smallest party.

Commies (yes they are the real deal) in the same government as the social liberals which are center-right economically. Yeah thats totally going to work.

[Valmy]

87.7% voter turnout

Wow.

The commies won't be in the government. They'll only support it with their parliamentary votes. Same thing which worked for 10 years in the 90ties. Anyway the commies aren't the biggest problem for the social democrats. The commies will never help remove the social democrats in exchange for a liberal conservative government supported by the far right. All they require are some trinkets now and then so the commie members of parliament can tell the party members (who think the real commie work should take place in the unions, work places etc.) that they matter.

The socialist and the social liberals will be the biggest problem. Especially since this election shows that the voters want a "blue" economic policy (retirement reform) and don't really believe in the red policy (work more if the unions agree + taxes). In other areas all three parties (socialist, social democrats and the bluish social liberals) can probably reach an agreement.

We could make it a capital crime not to vote and we still would not get 80%+ turnout.

Well, what difference does it make who you vote for in the US?  The Democrats and Republicans are pretty much indistinguishable at this point, except for slight differences like one acts more in the interests of corporations, while another acts more in the interests of trial lawyers.
