Farmers set to shake up Dutch political landscape
2 个月前
Opinion polls suggest a party started by disgruntled farmers could get significant support in Wednesday's provincial elections in The Netherlands.
That is bad news for Prime Minister Mark Rutte as provincial elections also determine the make-up of the Senate.
What might we expect from voters?
The polls show the BBB or BoerBurgerBeweging (Farmer-Civilian Movement) could win more seats in parliament's upper house than Rutte's conservative VVD party.
It will be a severe setback for Rutte's governing coalition, which has not had a Senate majority since the previous provincial elections in 2019 and must negotiate deals with left-wing opponents.
