Farmers' party BBB equals ruling VVD for largest party in last poll before summer recess

Farmers party BBB and Prime Minister Mark Rutte’s VVD came out equally large in the last poll before the Tweede Kamer goes on summer recess. If parliamentary elections were held today, both parties would get between 23 and 29 seats. The far-right PVV comes in a distant third with 12 to 16 seats, NOS reports based on the results of the Peilingwjzer, which calculates the weighted average of the four largest political polls.

We shouldn't be surprised by the chaos in the Netherlands

URL copied to clipboard
Conspiracy-fuelled riots sizzle on the streets of Amsterdam and Rotterdam and the Dutch cabinet has collapsed in a racist child benefit scandal. We are the last country in Europe to start vaccinating and have the second highest wealth inequality in the rich world. Our print media is owned by just two corporations and we are performing worse on climate change than our European neighbours. My adopted home likes to present itself as the prefect of Europe. But in reality, the Netherlands is a mess.
Yet polls say that the shambolic ruling party, the Liberal Party (VVD), is set to gain seats in the national election on 17 March. Its leader, prime minister Mark Rutte will likely lead his fourth consecutive cabinet and his nearest rival, Geert Wilders, who wants to ban the Koran and deport Muslims, is also set to gain seats.
