What does the EU election result mean?

The EU held an election for the European Parliament and the result provides pro-EU people with some good news and some bad news. Liberal parties gain more support than far right and left parties, given the election result; however, there are some exceptions, as in France and Italy, the far right parties gained more votes than their countries' ruling parties did. The election result in the UK I think gives us some implication about the public opinion about the relationship that the UK should have with the EU. The Brexit Party, which was only established six weeks ago and is led by Nigel Farage, dominated the UK's European Parliament election. Although the turnout rate was very low, this result still sends a strong message.

The UK population is not happy about the ongoing Brexit process. The Prime Minister seems that she has already lost her battle for her proposed Brexit deal with the EU in the Parliament. The Labour Party wants another EU referendum; since they lost votes comparing with their previous election result, they may need to reconsider their EU referendum idea. The Conservative Party did not perform well either, showing at least the people who voted in the election are disappointed about the Conservative Party. Additionally, the low turnout rate I think was caused by two factors. The first factor is that this election does not change anything domestically in the UK, so it was not important. The second factor is that the population are confused and the people may not know what is really good for their country.

However, nothing is changed by the election result. Not only because this election is not important, but also because fundamental problems surrounding Brexit are still there. There is no Brexit strategy or policy that can win the majority support in the Parliament. The only thing that wins the majority approval is there cannot be a no-deal Brexit, and this is near nothing, Because if the Parliament cannot negotiate a deal with the EU by the time when the UK has to leave the EU, then there will be a no deal Brexit.

Overall, the election result is a message that the UK people send to the politicians, but such message I think will not change the fundamental problem about how the UK leaves the EU.
