The EU Commission president’s hopes of a second term hinge on a secret ballot of MEPs tomorrow - and the outcome is far from certain
The political future of Ursula von der Leyen will be decided on Thursday when the EU Commission president discovers whether the European Parliament has approved her bid for a second term.
Von der Leyen has been in discussions with the Greens, whose support could help her over the line, but the entire process remains fraught with uncertainty, not least because the vote is a secret ballot. The hard-right European Conservatives and Reformists, dominated by Italian prime minister Giorgia Meloni’s Brothers of Italy party, could yet have some role to play, although von der Leyen has been warned that any concessions to the right could imperil her existing coalition.
