Campaigns for Dutch culture and against illegal immigration from the Middle East

The Hague is the second largest city in all of the Netherlands. The official royal home of the Dutch Queen, the city also serves as both the seat of the Dutch government and the provincal capitol. Additionally, The Hague serves as the judicial capitol for the United Nations.

The city population is 480,000. The metro area includes nearly 1.1 million inhabitants.

On March 3, the Dutch libertarian party (PVV - Party For Freedom) could become the second largest party in the municipality.

The Dutch News, Feb. 27:

The PVV is tipped to emerge as the biggest party in Almere and second biggest in the Hague.

Wilders was campaigning last week in Almere emphasizing pride in distinctly Dutch culture and strong opposition to Muslim women wearing the burqa in government buildings and at government-subsidized events.

Continuing:

'Almere must become the safest city in the Netherlands,' he said. 'There will be an end to subsidies for Turkish macramé and Arabic finger painting. Not just the Netherlands but all of Europe will look to Almere.'

Almere is a planned city in the central Netherlands with 184,000 residents. Both The Hague and Almere have been plagued by an influx of illegal immigration in recent years from Turkey and the Middle East.
