#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. |
