mainstream political parties no longer mainstream...?

The media is full of stories about how 'the centre is collapsing':
The centre is falling apart across Europe | World news | The Observer
Across Europe disillusioned voters turn to outsiders for solutions | World news | The Observer
A crisis of trust - and the rise of new political parties | News | theguardian.com

And a helpful guide:
The Dummies' Guide to Spain's Podemos Party - The Local

And in English:



Pablo Iglesias responde en inglés a una periodista extranjera - YouTube

And from the UK - with an election this Thursday:



Rochester: 'The Most Important By-Election For 30 Years' - YouTube

Meanwhile here are some ESL resources:
