The growth of the far right isn't that terrible on a vacuum, since it's just a small growth anyway. The real bad news is this:

https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2024/05/14/possible-to-cooperate-with-some-far-right-personalities-says-charles-michel

This is, traditional conservative parties starting to talk about cooperation with the far right, rather than with centrists. If you thought far right euroskeptics were cringe, just you wait to see the far right that wants to remodel the EU to their taste - and are capable of passing reforms.
