and in both cases the vote said "Don't do it"
And they are just flatout ignoring it
and tell the state funded media to be silent about it
Thats worrisome
I am certain you guys in netherlands could organize campaign to stop them tho
You have internet and social media what is stopping you ?
Also i bet some political parties would bandwagon on this
which country is trying to take away referendum?
Dutch
Apparently
ah
I dont know any details
the neverlands
the government not respecting your referendums is something you have in common with bongland so you got that going for ya
bongland?
Well in bongland they did state it in the refferendum law
That its just "advisory"
So no plebs could fuck them up lol
and well, the reason for them doing it is that our current government is a bunch fo suck-ups,
The Ukraine referendum was the deciding vote on whether or not Europe would support the Ukraine government,
So in order to be pals with germany and such, they went quiet after the referendum said "No", and then secretly just agreed anyway
I am sure it was worth it lol
and they then discovered (like the Brexit vote) people don't care much for using our tax money to help other countries, so they vote no on such things, which ofc reflects badly on the Dutch in the EU,
So they want to abolish the referendum,
So the people called a referendum to cancel the abolishment, and the Prime minister himself said they would just ignore the referendum about it
yeah
a complied list of referendums in european countrys that were either never acted on or actually countered would be interest
modern obviously
Well there are ways to make refferendum inefective
50 % voter clause
And such
the clause is 30% here, and it was over it
they had no right to ignore it
I dont know your laws
But sure you sound angry about it
ive been hearing talk that the brexit might be found invalid in uk court
that will be interesting
well i'm opposed to the current dutch government,
Because its both incompetent, and corrupt
Brexit is heating up
apparently the leave campaign mismanaged government funding (as any referendum campaign gets funding) by basicly using a loophole to get unregulated amount out of the budget
I am quite interested whats going to happen too
its quite posible everyone in leave who knew about the fraud will be prosicuded
Honestly both campaigns probably cheated
yeah but its not leave thats in power
ironicly
