    Cool, I was wondering whether there would be a high level debate. Also, I wonder how good/bad spirited the debate will be given that EU politics don’t have that much national (and populist) attention

      Here in Germany it seems the debate was completely ignored by mainstream media. I haven’t seen any news mentioning it.

      The election is usually combined with municipial and council elections. That is where I notice at least some debate.

        Hmm true. That probably means it won’t be too heated because municipal elections are usually pretty chill
