EUROSCEPTICISM is rife across the continent. Economic stagnation has bred resentment of immigrants, the single currency and the European project. At elections to the European Parliament last May populist parties saw their vote share jump in most big countries, and their support has only grown since. Last month Greek voters elected Syriza, a party of the hard left, to lead the EU's first explicitly anti-austerity government. Anti-Muslim rallies in Germany have swelled (as have counter-demonstrations) and spread to Sweden. But not all populists are alike. Podemos, a left-wing Spanish party leading in some opinion polls, wants to rewrite the rules of the euro. The Dutch PVV (Freedom Party), by contrast, would exit the currency as well as the EU. Elsewhere Syriza and Italy’s Five-Star Movement want to stay in the EU on their own terms, while Britain’s UKIP wants to leave outright. But the unifying call from all these parties is that Europe is not working and something ought to change.
