ANYONE DETECT A TREND?:

Czech election won by centre-right (EuroNews, 5/29/10)

The Czech Republic is heading for a new centre-right coalition favouring tough austerity measures, following the country’s general election. [...]
Now it seems the Czech Republic, under a Civic Democrat-led coalition, could sample a bout of belt tightening to avoid a Greek-style economic crisis.

“If these results are confirmed, it would give a great chance to create a coalition of fiscal responsibility – a coalition that this country needs in these uneasy times and one we’re ready to create,” said Civic Democrat leader Petr Necas.
