During a debate last Monday, the head of the LREM electoral list claimed that France has accepted “castaways” from every vessel rescuing refugees in the Mediterranean. However, her presentation of the matter is a little too generous, find Les @decodeurs. factcheckeu.info/en/article/nat…

The European Parliament elections will take place on 26 May, with rules varying from country to country. Is this simply respect for national traditions and identity, or discrimination between citizens? @lavoceinfo takes a closer look at the rules factcheckeu.info/en/article/il-…

A picture claims that German election officials have been instructed to treat any votes for the AfD as invalid if the cross goes over the lines of the circle printed on the form. This claim is completely invented. A @correctiv_fakt check: factcheckeu.info/en/article/nei…

An image claimed to be a CDU election poster is being shared on social media. It shows a Muslim family, together with a slogan supposedly in the words of the Chancellor, Angela Merkel. @correctiv_fakt reports that the poster is an egregious fake. factcheckeu.info/en/article/vor…

Watch out for any claim of "censored poll". According to a rumor circulating on social networks, a “censored poll” put French governing party La République en Marche (LREM) at 6% in the EU elections. It's a familiar hoax. factcheckeu.info/en/article/lin…
