I'm not sure how strong a claim you were making about right-wing populism, but there's France, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, and the Netherlands.

I'm no expert either, but I agree that they're not close to taking power-- I thought you were claiming that Portugal must be doing something right because they don't have a significant right wing nationalist presence.

The way they handled drug legalization has worked very well (so far as I know, no one is imitating it) so maybe they have more sense than most people.

It seems as if the EU nations exclusively on the Mediterranean coast or having been Soviet client-states in the bad old days after WW2 are the worst off: Greece, Italy, Hungary, Poland...

I won't deny that the Dutch social safety net is adequate, but it is under constant attack from the centre-right party that has been in power for decades. They made a complete mess of things like health insurance and housing, which doesn't help.
