The conclusion of negotiations on the right to form a new government in the Netherlands is not expected until February. There are many indications that this could be partly created for the first time by the right-wing, populist Freedom Party (PVV). This would be a completely new, unique situation, not only in the Netherlands, but throughout Western Europe. Until now, such groups have been sentenced to stay in a political ghetto.

The choice of the Dutch, or a threat to democracy. Timmermans and the elites are already making plans to prevent the anti-EU Freedom Party from coming to power
After the surprising victory of the PVV in the Dutch elections, the real problems arose. The victory must be digested and a government must be formed, which under Dutch conditions is quite a difficult art, for suffice it to say that no fewer than fifteen parties entered the House of Representatives of the States General, which consisted of 150 members. The formation of the previous government, whose prime minister was, as usual, the head of the People’s Party for Freedom and Democracy, Mark Rutte, lasted as many as 299 days. This politician is a true veteran of such conversations and a master of party intrigue. That is why he has been leading cabinets in various configurations for thirteen years, often including those of minorities.
The beneficiary of such arrangements and fragmentation was Frans Timmermnas’ Labor Party, which, despite miserable support – always only 5-6%, consistently co-founded the government. We have often written about how pathological and anti-democratic the EU system is, as a man with such poor support in his own country can implement his insane climate visions (Fit for 55), have a say in virtually the entire continent and the fate of 450 million EU nationals. But these are for separate stories, so let’s go back to the Kingdom of the Netherlands.
A party hated by the political establishment
The big winner of this year’s elections was the anti-immigration, politically incorrect PVV, hated by the political establishment and the media, which won 23% of the vote and 37 seats. So far in Western Europe, incorrect groups such as the PVV in the Netherlands, the Swedish Democrats, the Spanish Vox, Marine Le Pen’s National Rally in France and the AfD in Germany have without exception been surrounded by the only legitimate mainstream. parties and sent to a political ghetto. It was always clinically pure discrimination. No matter how many millions of people voted for them, no matter what their support, they would forever function on the fringes of public life, without any right to influence them.
Now there is a good chance that this will change, at least in the Netherlands, because there are groups that do not abhor Wilders’ wrong party and are in discussions with it about a government coalition. Among them, to the surprise of many, is Prime Minister Rutte’s People’s Party, which has so far preferred the company of liberals or socialists to Timmermans and has completely ruled out any connection with the Freedom Party.
The outcome of the negotiations is not certain, but no fewer than three anti-establishment parties are participating. These include, in addition to PVV Wilders, the New Social Contract (NSC), led by the country’s most popular politician Pieter Omtzigt, and the Citizen Farmers’ Movement (BBB), which emerged from resistance to the massive, forced expropriation of farmers and the destruction of Dutch agriculture. The latter party won the municipal elections in the spring and thus the elections for the Senate of the States General.
In addition to the participation of the People’s Party in these negotiations, it is also surprising that the goodwill mission8 was undertaken by experienced socialists from the PvdA, Ronald Plasterk, who became coordinator of the negotiations. It was he who announced that the talks would be completed in February and that a cabinet might then be formed. A possible coalition can count on a maximum of 88 seats, 13 more than necessary for a majority in the House of Representatives.
Of course, the outcome of the negotiations and the formation of the government are not certain, but it is already an unprecedented situation that Wilders’ incorrect, anti-immigration, anti-EU group is participating with full rights. This was undoubtedly influenced by the excellent results of other right-wing parties: the New Social Contract, which was an election favorite, and the Peasant Citizen Movement. Without them it is impossible to govern in the Netherlands, which means the likely end of the crazy climate policy, which means the forced liquidation of thousands of farms, that the Rutte government wanted to implement by force.
This also means at least a mental breakthrough in the Netherlands itself. Even before the elections, Prime Minister Rutte completely rejected the idea of any cooperation with Wilders’ party. After the results were announced, the left and center, as usual, fell into hysteria and announced the end of democracy or a major threat to it. This is what always happens: there is an end to democracy, a coup, a regime or whatever, when an irregular party wins in democratic elections, such as PiS, the Freedom Party or even the Italian Brothers, as in Italy.
We will defend democracy. Let us take a common stand against discrimination, exclusion and poverty
Frans Timmermans, in his post-election speech, addressed allied socialists and communists and called for unity against the Freedom Party.
The Netherlands itself may seem too small and unimportant, but let’s look at the map of Europe. Sweden is governed by the right-wing Liberals, with the support of the Sweden Democrats. This anti-EU, anti-immigration party came second in the elections, but remains out of government. Perhaps no longer in the ghetto, but in purgatory, and Swedish politics is undergoing a major transformation. Once again we can see how pathological the EU system itself is. The Swedish Commissioner, the communist Ylva Johannson, delegated to Brussels by the previous left-wing government, announces a great triumph and the adoption of the Immigration Pact, that is, the concept of forced resettlement of illegal immigrants within the EU. Meanwhile, the Swedish government itself announces the deportation of illegal immigrants, and countries that do not want to take back their citizens will lose any help from Sweden.
In Italy, the right rules – the Italian Brothers and the League – and it is probably only the personal weakness of Prime Minister Meloni and the country’s desperate financial situation that prevents the Roman wolf from showing its teeth and claws to Brussels. In France, there is a minority government led by Macron that is constantly on the verge of collapse, and the National Rally is de facto the second political force on the Seine. The right wing won the elections in Spain, but they are unable to agree on the government. That is why socialists and communists are in power, breaking laws and exceeding all boundaries of decency and the rule of law. In Germany, the ruling coalition of SPD, Greens and Liberals is at the bottom of the polls. In Finland the right wing is in power, and in Portugal the socialist government collapsed due to a major corruption scandal.
Under such circumstances, the formation of a government in the Netherlands led by Wilders would be a major blow to the Brussels caste. It could mean the end of the paradigm that the media supported left-wing parties and so-called left-wing parties for liberal democracy. This concept is of course completely hypocritical today – just like popular democracy in the Polish People’s Republic. That regime had nothing to do with democracy and the people. In the same way, liberal democracy has no connections with the power of the people (demos – people, Kratos – power, strength) and freedom. There will be elections for the European Parliament in June and this whole rotten structure of the Brussels caste could just collapse.
However, I am far from very optimistic. Too often I have seen rotten compromises, victories of a right that is cowardly, its inability to organize and build its own institutions and influence. The misery of the right and conservatives can be seen everywhere in Europe. Although the right wing can count on about half the votes, the left wing and the wretched opportunistic center have been in power forever, and the conservative right-wing groups are at best simply prostituted themselves, or cowardly cowered like the British Tories or the CDU in Germany. What does this party have to do with Christian values? The floating right-wing government in Italy only confirms this rule. Perhaps it is because it is so weak that it is not fiercely fought against by the rulers of Europe
Still, some small swallows can be seen on the horizon. It is certainly better that Geert Wilders co-creates the government than for it to be done by a thoroughly corrupt, racially pure, born member of the Brussels Carpenter caste.
