Calls for new elections since his partner in the majority coalition would not agree to Hsi far right immigration policies. Opposition, and even coalition partners, paint a different picture than that of the Dutch trump. Shocking, different realities. This will be interesting to gauge how MAGA acts here are going to reflect themselves on their electorate and coalition forming post election. His party has a 1 percent lead on the left. Hopefully, this is the apex of the white nationalist movements being pushed across the us and the eu and this election reflects that. Maybe I'll be disappointed again.. Dutch government collapses after Geert Wilders’ far-right party quits – POLITICO Dutch far-right figurehead Geert Wilders announced Tuesday morning that his party would quit the government in The Hague, throwing the Netherlands into turmoil. Wilders’ Party for Freedom (PVV) left the coalition in a heated dispute over the government’s position on asylum. “No signature for our asylum plans. No changes to the [coalition] agreement. PVV is leaving the coalition,” Wilders posted on X. Prime Minister Dick Schoof announced Tuesday afternoon that he’d hand in the resignation of the government to the King, triggering a new election less than a year after his government took office. ................................... “If it hadn’t happened today, it would have happened sometime in the next few weeks,” Rob Jetten, the president of the liberal D66 party, told NOS. He criticized the government for making few decisions and having too many “squabbles and crises,” saying the other coalition parties had been taken “hostage” by Wilders.
Dutch government collapses over Wilders’s migration demands Mr Wilders had demanded his three coalition partners agree to a new 10-point migration plan, which included using the army to close land borders, the deportation of Syrian asylum seekers and an end to family reunification, without prior consultation. “Close the borders for asylum-seekers and family reunifications. No more asylum centres opened. Close them,” he told them. He also demanded a “one strike you’re out” policy that would ensure migrants convicted of violent or sexual crimes were deported. But after the allies refused to back the plan on Monday morning, the divisive anti-Islam firebrand wrote on X: “No signature for our asylum plans ... PVV leaves the coalition.” Mr Wilders’s PVV was the largest party in the coalition alongside the conservative-liberal People’s Party for Freedom and Democracy (VVD), the Farmers’ Citizen Movement (BBB) and the centrist New Social Contract.
