Mike Corder — The Independent March 16, 2023
A new powerhouse of Dutch right-wing populism took political center stage Thursday after winning its first provincial elections, a victory that was seen as a resounding rebuke to Prime Minister Mark Rutte‘s ruling four-party coalition.
With counting of ballots from Wednesday’s vote wrapping up, the Farmer Citizen Movement — known by its Dutch acronym BBB — was predicted to win 15 seats in the 75-seat upper house of the Dutch national parliament, level with the bloc formed by left-of center Labor and Green parties. The provincial lawmakers elected in Wednesday’s vote choose national senators at the end of May.
Losses suffered by members of Rutte’s coalition weaken the government but could also strengthen their resolve to sit out their four-year term in office that ends in 2025 rather than face an early national election. They also will compound problems for Rutte in his attempts to drastically slash pollution from the country’s agriculture, industry and transport sectors to protect vulnerable natural habitats.
Victories in provinces across the nation of nearly 18 million for a party whose leader Caroline van der Plas is its only national lawmaker underscore a deep-rooted resentment of mainstream politics in the Netherlands that spreads far beyond the party’s farming power base. With the count nearing completion, the BBB was forecast to become the biggest party in every province except the central province of Utrecht.
“We are all normal people and all the people who voted for us are normal citizens,” Van der Plas said in a victory speech.
“Normally, if people no longer trust the government, they stay home,” she added. “Today they showed they don’t want to stay at home — they want their voices to be heard.”
The party that traditionally has represented many farmers and conservative rural voters, the Christian Democrats, which is one of the four coalition parties, was one of the big losers in the vote Wednesday.
Mid-term elections for the Netherlands’ 12 provincial legislatures are often used by voters to register their anger at sitting governments, but the success can be fleeting as fickle populist voters shift their allegiances. Four years ago, the far-right populist Forum for Democracy won the biggest share of the vote, but on Wednesday it was decimated.
Van der Plas describes her party as “social right wing,” with its initial focus on the future of farmers and rural communities now broadened to make it appealing to a far wider electorate. Political analyst Andre Krouwel of the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam calls it “folksy nationalism.”
Rutte, who came to power in 2010 and is the Netherlands’ longest-serving leader, is a political survivor who is adept at forging alliances to push through his policies in the splintered Dutch political landscape.
But Wednesday’s result will make life in the senate — where his coalition already didn’t have a majority — even tougher. If, as predicted, the BBB and the combination of Labor and the Greens both finish with 15 seats, Rutte will face a choice of working with a left-leaning bloc that is seeking more ambition in environmental policies, or with the BBB that aims to soften policies aimed at cutting nitrate pollution.
“There is a choice in the senate — left or right,” Greens leader Jesse Klaver said.
The governing coalition wants to cut emissions of pollutants, predominantly nitrogen oxide and ammonia, by 50% nationwide by 2030. Ministers call the proposal an “unavoidable transition” that aims to improve air, land and water quality.
The plans have sparked mass protests by farmers in recent years, including blocking supermarket distribution centers with tractors and torching hay bales alongside highways. At farms across the nation, the Dutch flag hangs upside down as a sign of protest.
The BBB party’s popularity soared amid the protests. It was formed in 2019 and won 1% of the votes in the national election in 2021, with Van der Plas, a former agricultural journalist, becoming a national lawmaker and growing in popularity with her down-to-earth image. After her election in 2021, she was driven to the Dutch parliament in The Hague in a tractor.
Power to the People. The Working Class united. WILL NEVER BE DEFEATED
We in the UK must support the farmers abroad and at home
good on them
CIRCUMCISION
The current discussions in the black community on banning circumcisions
The Rastafarian belief system is based on The Book of Leviticus 21:5 in the Old Testament and The Torah. “They shall not make baldness upon their heads, neither shall they shave off the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.”
This is quite clear that shaven heads exposing the crown chakra is forbiden
as is shaving the sides of their mouth, most important is that cicumcisions are wrong
the genitals should be left whole as god intended.
Princess Diana refused to have her boys sexually mutilated, this wa sthe cause of several rows
in the Royal family, who are according to Sir Anthony Blunt, secret jews.
THE GRAND KILLOFF
The reason why UK folk were bullied badgered and scared to death
was to get them all given the Covid vaccine.
Now known as the jew-jab its been established its killing people,
and yet the milion of folk being people trafficked in by government
do not have to have the jab, why ?
What is known as the “Grand-Killoff” is in part about people replacement.
The Red Indians were replaced by the new folk
The Tibetans were replaced by the new folk
The Maoris were replaced by the new folk
The Aboriginese were replaced by the new folk
The Palestinians were replaced by the new folk
And the same racist plan exists for us, in that
the migrant hordes imported in will replace us.
But its bigger than that.
Major players on the life stage
such as Bill Gates Fauci, Nutenyahu Boris Johnston
in fact the whole UK political system including the late Prince Philip
are Bilderbergers a sinister group who meet secretly each year
and plan to cut the worlds population in half, and the rumour among the cogniscenti
is that these people are being brought into the UK,
alongside the remains of our own folk
for the Grand Killoff of all in 2026.
The alternative is to get castrated and eat bugs in your coffin apartment while Schwab keeps eating children
The Globalist manipulation has worked perfectly, the evidence of that, is that the so-called alternative media including the Truth Seeker have jumped into the Globalist pond of lies with both feet, and eyes shut without questioning anything about this stinking story.
The “Boer Burger Beweiging” (Dutch for Farmer Citizen Movement, or BBB) is the best illustration of how Hegelian dialectic actually functions; the BBB was created after the Dutch government had already created legislation for the non existing problem.ie; the Nitrogen hoax” as a movement to supposedly “defend” those who’d be affected by the new legislation, whereas in reality it is to rally them, in order to lead them towards the edge of the cliff, and that’s exactly what happened here.
I am astonished to see that the Truth Seeker publishing stuff without researching the subject properly, which unfortunately makes it de facto an accomplice to the Dutch Government Propaganda machine, and that is precisely the problem with the TS relaying articles from the Guardian of the Globalist Empire, and its little brother the very Zio-Dependent of London.

The Dutch government’s attempt to smear the Farmers by having Geert Wilders espouse the Farmers’ view points didn’t work this time! Usually they park Geert next to an issue to scare off “Normal” people, a sort of “Skunk Defense” by making seemingly popular policies “Stink” by associating them with a known “Racist”. This means the people are waking up finally. BTW the Christian Democrats are neither. Expect something nasty soon like some assassinations a la Pim Fortuyn.
Funny typo Mask Rutte / sorry Mark / but the message of the voters is clear un-WEF yourself

Nitrogen Oxide is a generic term, referring to many different types of electrically neutral; positively or negatively ionized molecules of nitrogen and oxygen in various differing binary compounds.
There is Nitric Oxide (NO,) Nitrous Oxide (N2O,) Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) etc.
Plant life depends on nitrogenous soil for its metabolic health.
Just as the Carbon Tax, ultimately, aims to levy tariffs upon all animal life (including ourselves) for the mere privilege of being alive; the vague injunctions against the wide spectrum of Nitrogen Oxides, is an attempt to extend claim of ownership over the entirety of the flora of Mother Earth.
As I understand it, there is an unhappy possibility, that the Labour and Left-Green opposition parties will now coalesce with Rutte’s government, to ensure that he sees out his term of office and guarantee the enactment of the nakedly punitive legislation, which seeks, effectively, to outlaw all Nitrogen Oxides.
Nonetheless, this news brings me cheer because the BBB is, genuinely, a grassroots movement and it will now continue to blossom.
Farmer-Citizens will have to start watching out for spooks in their midst but I’m sure that they know that already.
“Bringing in the sheathes, Bringing in the sheathes, We will come rejoicing…”
How will this be cheated so they are effectively powerless.? globohomo can’t allow citizen politics to rise

“this news brings me cheer because the BBB is, genuinely, a grassroots movement and it will now continue to blossom”
I read yesterday morning in the Volkskrant that there was a marketing office behind it ( no problem imv)
https://www.adformatie.nl/campagnes/hoe-een-pr-bureau-de-boerburgerbeweging-de-tweede-kamer-b
A pr buro of the agrarian industry took care of the election campaign of Carolien vd Plas in detail / she
entered the Binnenhof – the seat of the Dutch parliament – on a tractor after she was elected in the parliament in 2021.
BBB ( clever name) & pr buro Re-Mark-able shared even the samer adress / since then they have split office offices.
The farmeractivists named themselves before the FDF Farmers Defense Force / which of course threw up associations at once with IDF the “defense” armed forces of the slc.
Hopefully they don’t use that anymore / know your enemy BBB / WEF Klaus Schwab’s mother- a RotSchild- a main main tool of the crimecartel that is about to steal your lands.
(As u might not yet know / these global money monopolists founded the presentday slc / sweet little country on the eastern shore of the Mediterranean in 1948 / by simply stealing it….
And no / they don’t come from that area 2000+ yrs ago / their true homeland is presentday Ukrain former Kazaria
One thing more / the people living in the slc today are arch enemies of Christianity . read their talmud )

@ Gabriel Jones
I’m not sure that I fully follow your comment. Public Relations provision isn’t indicative, per se, of anything, necessarily. You seem to agree with that – but then suggest that something more suspect is going on, along the lines of the BBB (I perceive no especial cleverness in the letters) is, therefore, potentially just a corporate marketing campaign. I hope that I haven’t misunderstood your meaning but your argument is a little tenuous, if I’ve got it right. Neither is the FDF suggestive of the IDF, at least to me.
The Khazars aren’t Europeans. Their homeland wasn’t the Ukraine. The Ashkenazim are ethnic Gokturks, with some matrilinear European admixture. Their home was the Caucasus mountains.
