Only here to add onto the UK thing, a big part of the reason the conservatives lost in the UK is because a new-ish party which leans much further right (the reform party) got decently popular, draining away a large proprtion of the voter base.
While the reform party got the same amount seats in parliament as a left leaning but still small party (green), their share of the vote was much larger. So the UK is not neccesarily sick of the far right, just the tories. Its possible the new government will be effective enough to keep the right at bay, but the current state of the labour party is one of a once centre left party sliding further and further right with their leader's policy on things like the EU and certain marginalised minorities.
My overview is quite biased as i am a left leaning person, and i have ignored things such as the lib dems who gained massive popularity but could've split the left wing vote in turn. Its possible that the lib dems could represent the new left of the UK, or that the combined lib dem and labour vote is what we should consider the left.
Fair point, but so far history has shown such people riding in on a wave of economic misery or promise to resolve economic misery (which they previously created), and then getting the boot. I guess there’s more history to be observed ahead
Oh, and I guess Italy under Meloni: https://www.reuters.com/markets/europe/italy-gdp-unexpectedly-shrinks-blow-meloni-2023-07-31/
