Its up to leaders to mitigate populist anger and it seems unlike Hillary and Remain, leaders have gotten the message.

Populist anger? What the hell is that suppose to mean?

Frankly the many people who get easily swayed by hate and simplistic talking points.

The reality is a large segment of those people usually are reasonable but go to the extreme choices out of frustration.

If leaders seem like they are llistneing it is for the best. 

Looks like Erdogan was right. All a bunch of socialist left wing Nazis.

Would be funny if the left also excluded the VVD to form a coalition, the SP already did that.

I live in the Netherlands and didn't even know the election was on lol

I voted D66 personally, the election went as expected, every poll had the VVD as biggest I think

When I lived in The Netherlands the pvda was still the largest party, they're 7th now. Times changed. Wait a minute that happened only recently, from 38 to 9 seats, they must have seriously pissed off their voters.

True but they estimated VVD at 24 seats to 28 in the most optimistic poll. I voted for D66 mostly because it's the only liberal central party that cares about the environment. Anyway I don't mind a Rutte III he did quite well, considering where NL stands right now.

As they say in Dutch and Louis van Gaal English: Under which stone did you lay the past couple of weeks.
