What actually happened
Europe News: Many years ago, Otto von Bismarck observed that politics was “the art of the possible”. The modern European establishment appears to have inverted the Iron Chancellor’s maxim. Politics has increasingly become the art of explaining to voters why what they want is impossible, irresponsible, xenophobic, Islamophobic, nativist or, inevitably, far right. And made it impossible to vote for the so-called far-right party that’s actually willing to admit there’s a problem.
