....once again, following economic catastrophe, fascism is crawling back
onto the surface of European politics because a dissolving common
currency has made the politicians trying to save it economically
impotent. Add to the economic fire an influx of refugees and let the scapegoating begin.
In the Netherlands Geert Wilders’ ironically named Partij voor de Vrijheid (Party for Freedom) is leading in the polls for the upcoming 2017 parliamentary elections. The PVV’s platform includes,
among other things, “the abolition of the senate, shutting down of all
Islamic Schools, withdrawal from the EU, the abolition of the European
Parliament and no cooperation in any EU activities, repeal of the carbon
tax, taxes on the Islamic headscarves and prohibition of the Koran,”
and “no more windmills” or funding for durability or CO2 reduction.”
