I will give Austria an EU referendum: Nobert Hofer to allow Austrian people to LEAVE EU
THE far right-wing politician campaigning for the presidency of Austria has said he would push for a referendum on EU membership if he wins the post on Sunday.
...Increasing fears of crime and terrorism stoked by the arrival of refugees in Austria has served to give him an electoral boost he might not otherwise have enjoyed.
Mr Hofer, 45, will send shockwaves throughout the political establishments of Europe if he does win the race.
He has enthused supporters, and horrified critics, with comments against Muslims - "Islam is not part of our values" and "Islam has no place in Austria" - and has promised to increase criminal penalties for immigrants committing crimes like rape while cutting back on assistance to newcomers.
