While they want to reduce CO2 from COWS, Mrs. von Der Leyen travels in private jets in the Alps to meet with billionaire lobbyists and impose crazy policies on all Europeans.

Look out for this one!!! To give her some credit, unlike her predecessor, she does listen to her supporters, and I respect that!!! NSC is still hard to place, Left or Right. We still Haven't seen much from them, since they are a New Party. Pieter is a good debater, he's also good with Substantive issues, but there is a downside to this man.

BBB is a Right-Wing Populist party, but don't let the name scare you, this party has some content and works good with Substantive issues. Caroline is also the kind of woman who brings you back to the topic when you've wandered off. She is also the kind of woman who does not allow herself to be insulted and remains very decent and mature if you try!!! I even think that she's the reason that this formation worked!!! She's a good spirit to have around and brings positive energy!!! PVV is not an extreme Far Right party, not if you compare it with how far the Left Socialist party has gone. GL/PVDA and D66 have gone far more to the left than PVV have gone to the right, you can see that by just taking a look at how fare the Left are willing to push Migration and Multiculturalism on our Society. The Left Dutch parties are as Extreme Left as the Democrats in the US!!! You can also take a look at their supporters, those are far more extreme than PVV supporters. A view days back they destroyed the UVA (University of Amsterdam) just because of the War in Palestine!!! (The only one who call PVV ''Far Right'' or ''Extreme Right'' are the Left!!! The Far-Leftist Party GL/PVDA has become a one issue party, their only issue has become Wilders).

If that rule is abolished, it will simply mean whenever a country gets overruled by majority vote for more integration, it gives them more reason to leave the EU entirely. The Netherlands is the largest per-capita contributor to the EU budget by a very large margin and controls access to the largest port on the continent. You dont want us to leave. We dont want to leave. So compromises will have to be made. We have spent our entire existence fighting for independence against the Germans, (well, the HRE mostly) the French, the Spanish and the British. We're not just going to roll over and give up our nation because somebody else voted for it. There are many points of integration the Netherlands does support. We are one of the founding members, and the free traffic of people, goods, services, and capital has benefited us greatly. Even the money we give to other countries for free is a benefit for us. We would also likely be in favor of one EU army and further integration of finance and foreign policy ministries, in which we usually have to set the right example anyway. But turning the EU into one nation state is something you will find little support for in any country. Even Germany.

Try to create a European army to prevent bullying from Russians or Americans 5. No citizenship or voting rights ever for non-European people. 6. If workers are needed, have Dubai like laws for work permits. 6. Have Singapore like strict laws & improve law& order situation. 7. Stop advising the world & fix themselves

Great coalition and plans🇳🇱

[@paul1979uk2000]

The problem is with these kinds of coalitions is that the views are so wide apart that it wouldn't take much in new future policies for it to all fall apart. It's very likely that many policies within the coalition will get watered down to win enough support to get things done, or if any of the coalition partners play hard ball, it could be enough for the government to fall apart. It's going to be interesting to see over the coming months and years but I suspect it's not going to be as big of a deal as some think it will be because there are too many voices pulling in many directions and it wouldn't take much for them to fall out. Either way, moderate parties are successful because they moderate their policies to be more accommodating with more of the public and more people in government, basically, when it comes to the crunch of pushing for policy change, I suspect that's when things will get difficult in that there will likely be a lot of compromises and watering down of the policies, so much so that I don't think this is an issue for the EU at all, no different from how many of the other so-called radical parties that gained power have not really been that big of a deal throughout the EU. Still, we'll see over the coming months and years, but we've heard this time and time again, Italy is a prime example and yet, you wouldn't think it but the Italian government comes across as quite moderate that gets along quite well with the EU, probably because political reality kicks in on what they can realistically do, after all, it's far easier to talk on what you want to do when not in power, it's another story when in power that you have to be careful on your policy choices and have to keep the voting public onside, which most are moderates.

Only the story about the climate is a bit out of context. He doenst oppose the climate funds. They will only make sure that the Netherlands wont be a front runner when it comes to actions against climate change, but instead walk on the same pace as the average EU member to achieve the EU goals. The previous Dutch cabinet however, wanted to achieve more than the EU goals and to be an example to the rest of the world. So this wont happen anymore now. But they will build 4 nuclear reactors and many windparks on the sea. So yeah, they are still investing a lot of money in the energy transition.
