National conservatism[edit]

I would move it from "factions" to main ideologies because in the recent years many liberal members were expelled. The only not-national conservative parties left are Slovak SaS (which is not even conservative at all), German LKR (which is very minor), North Irish UUP, Flemish N-VA and maybe ODS.

ECR is a mainstream conservative party, but I agree that "national conservatism" can be considered one of its main ideologies. --Checco (talk) 15:28, 24 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Right-wing to far-right[edit]

Hi. Currently any source describe the party as a centre-right one. And also the major part of it are far-right parties. Only 3 are vaguely considered as centre-right. So I propose changing the position to "right-wing to far-right" indicating the previous centre-right position or faction. Hidolo (talk) 00:30, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

They arent widely described as far-right -- FMSky (talk) 04:30, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Agree with Hidolo. It should be right-wing to far-right. The far-right is not merely "factions" as the page currently states (which is WP:SYNTH as sources don't call the far-right a faction or factions within the ECR). In response to FMSky there are plenty of sources that call the ECR far-right, here are six of them - ^[7] Helper201 (talk) 08:11, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
