The simple reason is that a lot of people feel that the status quo just isn't working for them and hasn't been for a number of years. So they've ended up gradually voting for more and more extremes as the years have gone by, to express their distaste.

Hopefully these results are a wake-up call for EU nations, so they can try and get these voters back to the more moderate parties. I suspect not though.
