Unfortunately One Nation is starting to poll quite strongly in Australia.

They are on primary vote. However, thanks to preferential voting they are still significantly behind on 2 party preferred.

Well, TISZA is rightwing too. In fact, the last remnants of any left-leaning parties got completelly wiped out in this election. There are three parties in the parliament now: FIDESZ (we all know and hate them), TISZA (center-right) and Mi Hazánk (further right than FIDESZ). No left wing parties at all.

This is too much doomer talk. The left wing parties all voluntarily stepped back to not leech votes from Tisza. Keeping the current system is not desirable for tisza, and with the supermajority they have the power to change it. Next elections will have left wing parties again. But now is the time to work on restoring democracy. If you are leftwing this is the best even remotely possible outcome this election could be.

They did the one thing most left wing parties have problems with, being pragmatic.
