No. Partially because EU left was heavily destroyed by USian propaganda and secret services (see e.g. Operarion Gladio that stopped in 1990 because it was exposed; we have no idea what is still hiding in the shadows).

Partially because EU left is not really left, but only slightly less right than actual right.

    The EU left are all neoliberals.

    We can see it clearly in the UK. Labour, who are historically the political arm of the unions, have been indulging in anti-immigration rhetoric that is indistinguishable from the far right.

    It's easier to see that they are deliberate controlled opposition rather than former lefties that have been red scared into being centrists

    What’s more, openness to mass immigration is anti labour, as it worsens the positions of the worker (cheap competition who won’t unionize because they don’t mix well with the rest of the population).

    Fascist, gtfo

    Anti LOCAL labor, a crucial distinction. Not even "anti", really just decreasing their relative position, putting aside whether or not that position is already above others.

    So, a policy to enforce that raises the rights of one nationality above another. What do we call that? "National" "socialism"?

    You understand the idea of an empire pillaging the world and then trying to restrict access to the spoils?
