/// Thierry Baudet, who leads the FvD, which was only launched three years ago, told supporters: “We stand here in the rubble of what was once the most beautiful civilisation.

“We won because the country needs us. We are being destroyed by the people who are supposed to be protecting us.

“Successive Rutte governments have left our borders wide open, letting in hundreds of thousands of people with cultures completely different to ours. ///

Sounds much like this country.

Wouldn't be surprised AOG. Make us look even bigger idiots than we already do if they did. Hopefully they'll have learnt some lessons of what not to do from us.

[fiction-factory]

I think they are some way from gaining control. It'll be interesting to see how this develops though.

well done to the screamers! lets hope they do have a go at dexit!

[-Talbot-]

Surely it would be Nexit?

[ToraToraTora]

....or a hexit?

Achieve what exactly?

//we are being destroyed by the very people who have been appointed to protect us. We are being undermined by our own universities, our journalists, by those who receive cultural subsidies to produce our art, and even by those who design our buildings. And above all, we are being undermined by our rulers. This is a clique – a small clique of self-important professional bureaucrats, people who have never read a book in their lives and have no clue how to deal with long term-issues – that rules us. Unfortunately, they control our country’s decision-making process, and through a curious mix of cynicism, lack of ability, and self-interest, they manage to make the wrong decision every time. Not for much longer!//

We started the ball rolling and must not now tire just before we reach the summit of a very long steep hill. What we were once called racist or nazis for, has now become the common sense view and real fear of the ordinary men and women across the whole of the EUSSR.
Pandora's box is indeed open and hope is indeed justified. People are becoming less afraid of facing the hard truth and now feel free to express their disdain of the evil empire. Maybe just in the nick of time if you are aware of what they have planned for us. God bless the Dutch, we can trust them. Get us out. If needs be the hard or violent way. It is going to be cataclysmic once the momentum gathers across other Nations.

Avoidance of The United States of Europe (and Eurabia)

Ah.

No, in that case: which doesn’t mean “oh god no one can save us” ;-)

[Gromit]

Firstly, this is the Senate, not the House of Representatives, they do not have the power to make policies.
Secondly, in Holland they work in coalitions, and though the FvD have the same number of senators as the ruling VVD, none of the other parties will work with them, so they will achieve nothing.

[ichkeria]

Odd has it might seem also, Holland has a history of populist party leaders.
But I agree, it’s not as if this party has seized control of government

[youngmafbog]

Keep sticking your liberal heads in the sand. You time is over, best get used to it we have seen through you.

[Old_Geezer]

Might depend on whether it is the start of a wave of voters switching to such parties, or a blip protest result. In any case the Dutch government should note which way the wind's blowing.

[youngmafbog]

It's been happening for a while now OG.

Generally sneered at by the liberal left as 'populist' and we know how the liberal left hate democracy and majorities dont we.
