Far Right storms election as Austrians back anti-EU rhetoric
2008-09-29
The Far Right has made a grand return in Austria, emerging from yesterday's elections as the second biggest parliamentary block, according to preliminary results.

#1  Jörg Haider, won 11 per cent of the vote with his new party, the Alliance for the Future of Austria.

Two funny (in a way) tidbits about mr. haider :

- he's a very close friend of saif islam, one of the sons of good old ka-daffy, who even offered him his pet panther I think, and who said a while back in a mag interview (couple years ago?) that jörg... had converted to islam, and that he, saif, had been his witness.

- haider is a big proponent of the entry of turkey into the UE IIRC.
