Centre-left’s lead candidate in EU polls rules out working with extremists

Nicolas Schmit’s S&D group likely to come second in elections but he rejects any alliance with the far left or hard right

The centre left’s lead candidate in upcoming EU elections has ruled out forming a majority with the far left or far right.

Nicolas Schmit, the European employment commissioner, told the Financial Times that The Left was too unreliable for his centre-left Socialists and Democrats (S&D) group to join an alliance. He repeated his group’s warnings against Ursula von der Leyen striking a deal with the hard right in order to secure a second term as European Commission president.

The S&D is expected to come second in elections for the European parliament on Sunday, and its votes will be crucial for von der Leyen, who needs a majority in the 720-strong assembly, to start another five-year term.
