But 15% of the Netherlands voted for them. And even if nobody take this seriously, a website like this shouldn't even exist.
15% voting doesn't mean they can pass any of these laws. Really, quite a few of these votes were protests against the other parties for doing the same shit over and over again. They brought no change whatsoever, and the PVV promised something different, no matter how ridiculous or impossible. Of course, a website like this is ridiculous, we certainly agree on that, and I don't get why Rutte would wait so long for such a long response.
Rutte said that he'll not comment on everything the PVV does or says. That's why he hasn't said anything yet.
*sigh* Why are most Dutch politicians such spineless cowards? Tell the guy he's a fucking prick and he crossed the line this time for once.
If he does that, he'll exactly be doing what you are complaining about: giving him attention. What he does is the right thing, since he makes sure people don't blame him, and he won't get in a fight with Wilders. And this also limits the attention for the blond haired douche bag. And, the Bulgarians strike back. Anyway, Rick, who will you vote for now that you're 18?
Almost all politicans everywhere are spineless cowards.Just look at the people sitting in the EU parliament.
Hmm, I suppose that's true. And I don't know who I'll be voting for. Heck, it hardly makes a difference anyway. The parties either all do the same (as in fuck over the education system and pour millions into the Royal Family and art crap) or have such ridiculous ideas which will never pass, which means the vote is utterly wasted (PVV, PvdD, SGP). So, I guess my vote will have to go to the party with the most badass name. I might look into all programs when the time comes, but I expect to disagree with all of them anyway. I suppose that's true. I mean, you can say what you want about the Republicans in the US, but at least they're somewhat entertaining.
I'm not sure if I'll be going GreenLeft or SP. Or maybe even the Pirate Party, they are pretty liberal (am I even 18 before the next elections? I think so). Uhuh. I still think the party is secretly made out of parodists, like Vermint Supreme.
The next parliamentary elections are scheduled for May 2015 unless the cabinet falls earlier, of course.
Piratenpartij is a political party. I think it got around 1-3% of the votes in all provinces or voting districts or whatever. There also was a Feestpartij (Party party), but I don't think they exist anymore. Piratenpartij site
The Pirate Party was originally a Swedish party started by members of the Pirate Bay, mostly battling for liberty on the internet. It has branches in countries like the Netherlands, the UK, Germany and a few other countries.
I don't know. I agree the most with the PvdA but I'm not sure if I'm going to vote for them. So maybe I will vote D66 or even SP.
The SP is pretty authoritarian, right? I'd like to vote for a strongly socialist party, but I wouldn't like to be fucked over with an ACTA-like law. On the other hand I'd like the Pirate Party, but they seem too small and I don't think they have a real deep-going opinion on anything other than liberalism on the internet. Of course, I should read their programs first. Or maybe GroenLinks, because I like a party which is both liberal and socialist, and I think they would be the only party to fall in that category. But then again, I quite despise that populist-environmentalist nonsense.
