of course they do, as you well know, big collaborators in WW2.
not surprised by the way, this has been coming on a long while.

Quite Mikey. Remind me where a certain A Hitler was born?

Why they are called a far-right party I don't know. To me they are a Common Sense party, looking after THEIR country and THEIR people.

Well done, Austria.

[mikey4444]

Yes....here is Braunau am Inn :::::

[Jackdaw33]

LOL @ TTT.

[Zacs-Master]

The FPÖ have been in power before, forming a coalition with the ÖVP 2000 - 2005. So it’s not quite the revolutionary scenario the media would like us to believe.

TTT....you may or may not be surprised to know that I have had many wonderful ski holidays in Austria, but all of them were post 1945.

If we are going back in the history books, anyone heard of Joseph Stalin?

[mikey4444]

""Ein Volk, ein Reich, ein Führer"

[emmie]

i should think so, you weren't born then

[mikey4444]

Yeah AOG, but crap skiing.

[Zacs-Master]

Stalin was born in Georgia, AOG. What point are you making?

[mikey4444]

Emmie.....my very heavy-handed sarcasm this morning is passing you by, it would seem !

indeed it is..

Zacs-Master

A little slow on the uptake are you not?
Nothing to do with where he was born, it was in reply to mikey's attachment of Hitler to the Far-Right.
Just thought I would carry out a little playing field levelling and attach Stalin to the Far-Left.

You know that side of the political spectrum that comes up for very little, if any criticism.
