We have been a right wing country for ages. Conservarive governments since 2010 but this is a low.
I will keep voting left but until the rest of the populations changes don’t count on the Netherlands for anything internationally.
A decade of getting fucked by a right wing government, lets vote even more right wing!
It is the European way.
Well, these governments obviously were not right enough. A real right wing party will fix all the problems! \s
Why do so many right wing arseholes look like freaks?
Is he legit trying to steal Uncle Baby Billy’s look?
Because they’ve given up on hiding it.
Looks like a caricature of a 50s TV host. Fits the political world view.
Wth Netherlands? Seems like I was fooled by NotJustBikes and other youtubers.
Just fyi, they are the largest party but do not have a majority. 75% of the votes did not go to this guy…
We have some nice things but economically and socially this country is quite conservative. The Dutch are quite selfish.
This is so disappointing. My understanding of NL politics has waned since my mother isn’t around to give me deep explainers anymore, but I really hoped it wouldn’t get to this point. Makes me very sad.
I have nothing political to contribute to this, I’m just here to say that he looks like a Harry Enfield character.
This guy and Melei look like caricatures. Like villains in an over the top David Lynch movie
He has 35 out of 150 seats/23%, He’ll need to compromise.
Forming a coalition will take a long time.I think it’s fortunate that win results in minority seats. In my country, you can get >50% of seats by winning mere 30% of votes. No, it’s not Italy. Japan.
no it’s not Italy
Yet!
And that’s why you guys have the same conservative US-lapdog party in power for the past 40 years!
Exactly!
37, but your point is still valid.
You’re giving to many credits to the enlightened centrist. They won’t run away.

Jesus, all western countries are starting to pick the dumbest fucking people, and all the eastern countries are already there. Russia shot its dick off in the world’s dumbest war and cucked themselves on the worldstage, and China is gonna go down in flames due to its catastrophic fuckup with their one child policy gender imbalance and their staggering housing market collapse. That general shit is gonna make the great recession look like sunshine and butterflies in the next couple of years, lol. The one child policy gender imbalance is the real frightening part, now that they are well below the replacement rate and unable to pull themselves out a population nosedive.
Let’s see if the west can manage to snatch defeat from the jaws of success like the authoritarian countries, lol.
I am deeply ashamed of my ancestral homeland right now. I cannot believe the Dutch saw the rise of right-wing petty dictators like Donald Trump and thought: that’s a good idea. Let’s do that too.
