Many left-wing political parties in Europe are in shock after their poor performances at the European Parliament elections to right-wing parties.
French President Emmanuel Macron has dissolved parliament after his party came in 15 percentage points behind Marine Le Pen's National Rally. This is the highest support that Le Pen's party has ever received. France will have new elections at the end of June.
In Germany, the right-wing anti-migration party AfD is expected to come in second, and the governing Social Democrats are expected to place a humiliating third or fourth.
In Austria, the FPÖ, labeled a far-right party, came in first place.
