59 days. Almost two months. What am I talking about? Oh, I didn’t say? It took almost two months before I would have something to say about Dutch politics. See, I just caught the appearance of one Geert Wilders on BBC Hardtalk as I was surfing the channels and it took me about 2 minutes to realize that the guy is an asshat. Yes, I know what you’re saying, "you don’t even speak Dutch and now you’re going to bash this politician you know nothing about because you happened to hear him speak English". Yes, you’re damn right. In this society of public correctness, it’s amazing sometimes to hear people say things that are so blunt that you think they have no awareness of public opinion.

Let me reiterate some of his stand points for your pleasure.

• if you wear a burka, you will not get a job, you will not make Dutch friends and ultimately you will fail to integrate into society
• in these times of insecurity, noone should wear clothing which covers their face, everyone should be able to identify everyone else in the street
• if you have dual nationality, of which one is Dutch, and you repeatedly commit a crime, you should be stripped of your Dutch nationality
• it is unacceptable that the major Dutch cities are becoming dominated by citizens of the faith of Islam, this country should be dominantly white/Christian/Jewish
• if Turkey, a moderate, democratic Islamic state joins the EU, the Netherlands should leave the EU
