Shock Poll: In the Netherlands, Geert Wilders' Party Smashes Rivals
PJMedia ^ | FEBRUARY 3, 2017 | MICHAEL VAN DER GALIEN

Some thirty parties will compete with each other for the favor of Dutch voters on March 15. Because there are only 150 seats in the Dutch Parliament, the largest party will not be able to get much more than 35 to 40 seats. The favorite right now to become the largest party in parliament is Geert Wilders' Party for Freedom (PVV).

A shocking new poll has been released in the Netherlands. According to Kantar Public, PVV has opened a large lead over the second largest party in the polls, the VVD, which is currently part of the governing coalition. This makes Wilders the absolute favorite to succeed current Prime Minister Mark Rutte as the political leader of the country.

According to the Kantar Public poll, the PVV would get 35 seats in the 150-seat Dutch Parliament if elections were held today. By Dutch standards, that's an impressive result. This is especially true because of the significant gap between PVV and the VVD. The party led by current Prime Minister Mark Rutte wold have to settle for a mere 22 seats, 19 fewer seats than they currently occupy.

Wilders is profiting from a general feeling of unease about the direction in which the country is heading and public outrage at the refugee crisis. The Dutch government has allowed the borders to remain open, thereby allowing tens of thousands of "refugees" to come to the Netherlands every single year. This while there already were significant problems caused by (mostly) Islamic immigrants who refuse to assimilate into Dutch culture and society.

If Wilders wins, that could be the death blow to the EU. It would start an unstoppable domino effect.

There's still a long way to go. The statist-left base of the EU in Germany, France and Belgium is still in charge. And They own a central bank that can print all the money it wants. They won't go down without a long fight. Look how long they have kept the PIIGS in line.

Wilders may win, but he won’t have power.

His party is blacklisted and the other parties have all agreed to form a “Cordon sanitaire” to prevent a government coalition being formed with it.

I hate to be a party pooper, but I read an article, I think in AmericanThinker, that the Dutch already have a plan if Wilders gets the most seats. That is all the other parties have agreed not to form a coalition with him, so that means he will never be PM. After a period of time and no coalition emerges, the government will then ask the number 2 party to form a coalition, which they will do.

So Wilders would need an outright majority to be PM, which will never happen.

I was in the The Netherlands 08-1999 - 10-2003/Belguim until 01—2004, and the Dutch who were parents in their 20/30’s raising kids were in favor of him. I suppose that some of these kids are parents now replacing the old-socialists of WWII-1950’s ear generations so they want their country back now.

But the muslims are already there. How will Europe get rid of them?


See Serbia. For earlier examples, see Ferdinand and Isabella, and Vlad Tepes.

It’s pronounced Gert Vildersh. Very soon this will be useful knowledge.
