Netherlands General Election

VVD won’t serve with PVV, which infuriates D66, and that leaves GroenLinks-PvdA wondering what NSC may now do.

That’s very dramatic. A cohort of People want controlled immigration and less asylum seekers, I doubt even a majority of his voters are extremists

I wouldn't expect any reasoned debate from the Fish you hooked, arse in the air going whatever way the wind is blowing.

When you put it like that, it all makes sense.

The FCC won’t let the PVV be

It's ironic to mention the commerciality of various media. The Guardian for example is a leading left-leaning newspaper and you have to pay to read their articles, talk about accessibility! It seems to me that the more right leaning media is more popular not because of influence but because more people are interested in their content, and often that content is not political.

Let's face it, nobody wants to read relentless political shite, I certainly don't turn to certain media to try and find the latest on political issues. For example, I think the Palestine issue is somewhat important but I'm not going to read about it every single day and certainly most people won't read anything about it.

The mistake that the left continually makes is that they believe everything is a political campaign where all they need to do is take everyone on a journey of enlightenment. However that is alienating to most people who have to work for a living and for example aren't going to care so much to glue themselves to roads or go on protests.

The Guardian is 100% free. No paywall at all. For any of it.

Yet, it’d be more empty without him.

When reading it, you have to leave your brain outside with your bike. Especially true of anything about City.
I am in favour of a paper with a left leaning stance, but not one that alters facts to suit its argument.

Its funny that - imagine being such a **** nobody will work with you.

I know someone will say the will of the people but he won 37 seats in a 150 seat Parliament when he needed to win 76 to get an actual majority from the people so he was 39 seats away from governing.

D66 projected to be the largest party.

 

[stonerblue]

The Western fascination with populist leaders sporting strange blonde bouffants is alive and well in the Netherlands. Exit poll has Wilders’ PVV the largest party.

Thankfully a bit closer now.
