European Union in more trouble as anti-EU populists sweep to victory in Holland elections

The nationalist, Euro-sceptic wave continues to sweep across the continent with the recent election in Holland sweeping the ‘Forum for Democracy’ party to victory.

The populist party founded in 2017 and advocates for the Netherlands to leave the EU is now the joint largest party in the country’s Upper House and the Dutch people in a stunning rejection of the Europhile political elite handed the party a shocking triumph in the regional elections.

The party’s leader, Thierry Baudet, ran on an anti-mass migration and anti-EU platform as well as promising to address concerns over the Islamisation of Holland.

In a pointed statement about the Netherlands current Prime Minister Baudet said

“Rutte governments have left our borders wide open, letting in hundreds of thousands of people with cultures completely different to ours,” said Mr Baudet in his victory speech. “We are being destroyed by the people who should protect us.”

This marks a worrying trend for the globalist elite of the EU as opposition to their plans for a European Super-State and their population replacement agenda spreads across the bloc.
