Dutch election: Is online sexism holding women back from becoming MPs?


With female participation in this week's election in the Netherlands breaking records, one campaign group can be excused for feeling optimistic.
Stem op een Vrouw (Vote For A Women) was set up in 2017 to achieve parity in the Dutch parliament and have as many women and men in the 150-seat parliament.
Last year, around a third of MPs in the House of Representatives were female, according to statistics from the World Bank. That's down from 42% in 2010, the highest proportion in the country for more than two decades.
There is an unprecedented 10 women leading political parties into the election. Sitting at the top of their party's electoral lists, they stand the best chance of getting into parliament.

Meet the anti-racist campaigner taking on the Dutch right in this week's election


The Netherlands has a reputation in Europe as a liberal state - yet this week’s election will be dominated by Mark Rutte's People's Party for Freedom and Democracy (VVD) and Geert Wilders' Party for Freedom (PVV), on the centre-right and far-right respectively.
Sylvana Simons, a former TV presenter and leader of the left-wing BIJ1, is trying to change that, standing for parliament on a platform of equality, under which schools and the health and tax systems make no distinction based on gender, race, sexuality or religion.
"I'm proud of our party's election programme,” Simons told Euronews.
“It is written for the people we want to support. Youth care professionals, sex workers, education professionals, young people, black people, parents, trans and non-binary people, people with disabilities, and Muslim women.
