GFC Breeding Ground for Xenophobia

Spanish newspaper El Mundo claims that one in every six members of the Parliament is either xenophobic or Europhobic.

In the June 4-7 elections of the European Parliament the Social Democrats experienced a severe downfall, whilst extremist right-wing parties made their way into European Union politics. The Social Democrats lost in respect to the 2004 elections in all but four of the twenty seven member states of the EU; Malta, Romania, Greece and Sweden.
