What’s at stake in next month’s European elections?

Europe is getting ready for next month’s crucial parliamentary election.

Ministers in Brussels have signed off a major overhaul of migration and asylum rules as the campaigning heats up.

Pre-election polls are predicting right-wing parties to perform well.

The election will shape the future of the institutions and reflect the political landscape of individual member states.

It is also the first European Parliament vote since the UK left the bloc.

So, what are the consequences of this year’s vote for the continent – and the world?
