The party leader was condemned in 2004 for racism, it won't go away anytime soon

Things are pretty bad in Belgium Highest tax rate in Europe, lowest pension funds

normaly it wouldn't sucseed but with the frustration of brexit and labour being far left, I could see it getting the votes.

I have a strong suspicion that if this party started to gain momentum that they would fracture, due to half their party wanting to 'rehab' the image and the other half wanting to 'stay true' to the pary's founding roots

Pretty sure Jobbik over in Hungary are already doing that

Jobbik is weird though

it's not like a normal populist party

it's allways had wierd race views like pro turk pro islam

it's so anti liberal it's pro islam

@Fulcrum010 I understand what you mean, but I think that was Filip de winter , Now the party has a new front and leader Tom Van Grieken

Senate institution is overrated

@Reaps The NVA is the biggets party at the moment in Belgium but they have most of their votes from Vlaams Belang and after they got the chance to proof them selves they didn't deliver, contrary they did everything they said they wouldn't.

literally, Senate is an offspring of the lords chamber

Welcome to the world of politics 👌

Their is even some kind of unwritten rule between parties trying to silence the party and will try to form all sorts of coalitions to exclude them taking office

yes it is my point was rather the senate is not likly to be FPTP it is likly to be STV /AV or MMR

Did they, too, run on a populist platform?

Because it's a problem I often see with populist parties; populism itself is often short-term and subject to change almost impulsively, which makes it particularly difficult to forge clear working principles and policy around

To take things to their extreme examples, there are plenty of cases where someone uses the state to take things away from their citizens, whilst continuing to yammer on about 'the people'

I might look into it more later, but colour me skeptical for the time being

Interesting discussion nonetheless

populism is gay

They are the party predicting all the problems we know anno 2018 and they are warning us for over 15 years now. The problems we have of radicalisation in big parts of Brussels was predicted by this party. We also have a divided country with 50% speaking French and 50% speaking dutch . But the dutch part needs to support the french part , where it is mostly socialists in power so it is a huge money pit we have overthere

Populism is the way of the world. It can be a good thing or a bad one.

National Populist Party of Germany. Lets do this

Time for a fourth reich

My bad fifth

Cause merkel and the EU is teh fourth

Merkel Is the Destroyer of nations

we should unite and start a European Libertarian party , there are probally people from all over active overhere and mostly they are better at understanding ideologies and debating them

There is already a 4th Reich, lead by Merkel. It's call the EU

Also National Socialist Worker's Party is what your thinking~

Merkel the liar

EU Members I have help coming, but it comes at a cost. He will be constantly moving though.

Good lord. All of this guy's videos are fucking great, especially this one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGgnaJvFbGw

huh, never seen this guy before

yeah I just found him yesterday and I already watched like 10 of his videos

I see so many people in these kinds of videos who just seem to be saying what they think they need to say. like their heart isn't completely in it. It shows you how much power the PC culture has over people
