After the 2014 European elections, populist radical right parties (PRRP) sharply increased their representation in the European Parliament (EP).This result attested to the international rise of radical right populism.It also introduced an element of novelty in EP politics, drawing observers to contemplate the possibility of a PRR alliance in the parliament.In reality, the alliance was not as straightforward.Even though more radical right populists were elected to the EP than ever before and the Europe of Nation and Freedom (ENF) group was entirely composed of PRRPs, some PRR MEPs (member of the European Parliament) decided to join other parliamentary groups, reinforcing the history of fragmentation that has characterised this party family in the EP
