Heard some rumors about the far-right gaining power in Europe.
Is there any truth to this?

It would really depend on how Europe went.

Hmmm I guess you aren't old enough to recall when your country had it's own Money and didn't have to get the rest of "Europe's" permission to do something to bad.
They,re likley to gain a number of seats but its unfeisable that they,d get a majoirity. Even if they did then they wouldnt be "in power" as we,re voting for the legislature [and a comparatively weak legislature at that] not the executive.
LOL are you just here to bait? You obviously are not very clued up on things anyway. Britain still has its own money. It does not use the Euro.
I myself was an adult when we changed from pounds, shillings and pence to decimal money. Now do you know when that was?

In Sweden the far right racists will probably not get a seat. Instead we will have pirates going to Brussels.

There is a rise in neo-cons everywhere right now. Even in Canada, our PM is a neo-con evangelist.
Neo-cons are behind regionalism, because they tend to have a neo-liberal policy. They want trade and business to grow under the elites, borders to be reduced to mere symbols, and they tend to have a socially conservative policy because limited rights means easier expansion of their economic plan.
None of this is proceeding democratically, of course. Did Europe even vote on whether or not it wants a regional Parliament? No. You vote on the candidates, which legitimizes the system's very existence.
It might not have a lot of power now but it's just the beginning. Through the network of elites countries will slowly give over their powers to this regional parliament. The same thing is slowly happening in all the populated continents.
