World press: Far right surges on Portugal elections!

I mean, yes, as someone who lives in Portugal, it's scary as hell, but in the ongoing love affair that the western press has with fascists, let's not lose sight of the fact that this "surge" is actually them coming third, and not a particularly close third either.

What's worrying is that there's no stable coalition without either them, or the centre right and centre left joining forces.

Hopefully this will be their high water mark.
