Geert Wilders’ ambitions for a rightist majority cabinet face serious setback.
To no one’s surprise, the two largest conservative parties are resisting forming a cabinet with Geert Wilders’ eurosceptic PVV party.
With Mark Rutte quitting after 13 years as PM, and the rise of new parties, the question on everyone’s lips is what the Netherlands will look like after November 22nd.
While a majority of those surveyed see no issue, Pieter Omtzigt, the leader of the upstart NSC party leading the polls, does not want that coalition to include Geert Wilders’ PVV party, currently polling fourth.
Experts have called Frans Timmermans’ claims that climate change caused these deaths during storms and floods “nonsense.”
The Nieuw Sociaal Contract also wants to steer away from an “ever closer union” with the EU.
Omtzigt’s new party is poised to compete with center-right and populist parties such as the nationalist PVV and populist farmer’s party BBB.
