Anti_Islamic Dutch politician Geert Wilders. |
The poll states the populist party
would win 24 seats if there were to be a general election tomorrow, up nine on
its actual total. By contrast, the VVD would win 23, down from the 41 seats it
has in the current parliament and two down on last week.
The Dutch (Netherland) parliament has
150 seats, meaning the PVV would win 16% of the vote. The poll also gives the
Socialist party 23 seats, up eight on its election total.

The socialist extremist left
has enjoyed decades of distortions and lies to the public. In September 2012
they gloated that His Freedom party lost more than a third of its seats while forgetting to mention that so did all parties at the time, except the
Socialists.
And al Jazebra was of course
the most ecstatic with titles like “The rise and fall of Geert Wilders?”
al Jazebra observed, ‘Although they share his loathing of Islam, immigration
and the European Union, a significant amount of his supporters are also getting
tired of his antics.’
Umm…hardly, judging by the results below:

Geert Wilder’s Political Platform
- Considerable
reduction of taxes and state regulations.
- Replacement of the
present Article 1 of the Dutch constitution, guaranteeing equality under the
law, by a clause stating the cultural dominance of the Christian,
Jewish and humanist traditions.
- Reduction of the influence of the European Union, which may no longer be expanded with new member states, especially Turkey; the European Parliament will be abolished. Dutch financial contributions to the European Union should be reduced by billions of euros.
- A five-year
moratorium on the immigration of non-Western foreigners who intend to stay in
the Netherlands. Foreign residents will no longer have the right to vote in
municipal elections.
- A five-year
moratorium on the founding of new mosques and Islamic schools; a permanent ban
on preaching in any language other than Dutch. Foreign imams will not be
allowed to preach. Radical mosques will be closed and radical Muslims will be
expelled.
- Restoration of educational standards, with an emphasis on the educational value of the family.
- Introduction of
binding referenda and elected mayors, chiefs of police and prime ministers.
- Introduction of
minimum penalties, and higher maximum penalties; introduction of administrative
detention for terrorist suspects. Street terrorism will be punished by boot
camps and denaturalisation and deportation of immigrant offenders.
- Restoration of respect
and better rewards for teachers, policemen, health care workers and military
personnel.
- Instead of complicated reorganization, a more accessible and humane health care system, especially for elderly citizens.
