Newer parties have reshaped the political landscape in europe, says Tarik abu chardi. More choice means votes get spread thinly across smaller groups, he adds. This doesn't always mean that the left is losing out, because we have new parties that are on the left, for example, green parties, that have been doing very well in the last elections. Over just seeing a strong fragmentation of the party systems and that is very stent in all european countries.
