Is the writing on the wall for the EU as we know it?..

The longstanding effort to keep extremist forces out of government in Europe is officially over.

For decades, political parties of all kinds joined forces to keep the hard-right far from the levers of power. Today, this strategy — known in France as a cordon sanitaire (or firewall) — is falling apart, as populist and nationalist parties grow in strength across the Continent.

Six EU countries — Italy, Finland, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia and the Czech Republic — have hard-right parties in government. In Sweden, the survival of the executive relies on a confidence and supply agreement with the nationalist Sweden Democrats, the second-largest force in parliament. In the Netherlands, the anti-Islamic firebrand Geert Wilders is on the verge of power, having sealed a historic deal to form the most right-wing government in recent Dutch history

Meanwhile, hard-right parties are dominating the polls across much of Europe. In France, far-right leader Marine Le Pen’s National Rally is cruising at over 30 percent, far ahead of President Emmanuel Macron’s Renaissance party, according to POLITICO’s Poll of Polls. Across the Rhine, Alternative for Germany, a party under police surveillance for its extremist views, is polling second, head-to-head with the Social Democrats.

As we approach next month’s European Parliament election, these parties may use their momentum to form a powerful political bloc — if they can maintain their unity.

What did the unelected presidents and commissioners expect? You can ignore some of the people some of the time, but if you ignore the majority of people all the time you must expect consequences. This is the problem with the unelected Brussels elite, they are arrogant, they look down their nose at anyone who disagrees with their globalist agenda, and dismiss them as 'far right extremists'. Well now, hopefully, their pigeons are comming home to roost. 

I just don't believe all this if only we could stay in the EU, we can change it from within, I personally think the problems created by and via the EU are terminal.

Yes they do tend to do things according to the laws they sign up to. Righties might ignore such laws, but they are also liable to ignore laws that no decent individual want to ignore.
Nothing stops them seeing that which is going on in the wider world, wherever did you get that idea from? 

The rise of the AFD, like all other moves to the right is the product of excessive but legal migration and slow moving economic movement across the world. It follows perhaps to a lesser extent, the reality that Germany already in economic trouble in the 1920s, gave Hitler the push into power on the back of the 1930s Depression. Typically, Righties slide out of the woodwork when difficulties appear. 
It is totally untrue to blame "Merkel, Blair and the apparatchik in Brussels" for those problems, that is just unprovable political

That was a proposal from 2016 - never fully implemented.

The actually implemented fine is €20,000 - LINK


All The Best

LOL, ahh right, that's OK then. 

We are in complete agreement. Sovereign nations should indeed have control over who they allow into their country, and unless they're in the EU, they do. You see many years ago, 1964 I believe, the EU realised that 'sovereign' nation states may threaten the supremacy of EU law and that would never do. Therefore the EU decided, even though the EU is not sovereign or indeed a nation state, that EU law is supreme and has precedence over national laws in member states (See Primacy of EU Law) Which is why member states of the EU are not sovereign states. Getting back to the origional point, the unelected EU commission are defacto masters of the EU, and the EU issue huge fines to member states who refuse to accept EU migrant quotas.
