Marcel de Graaff was in magnificent form recently in the European Parliament, which had just voted to condemn Iran’s attack on Israel. Marcel bottom-lined it: Israel bombed the Iranian consulate in Damascus first, and Iran’s attack was therefore a response to a provocation which killed sixteen people. Yet the victim is the perpetrator, according to the European Parliament. So it’s déjà vu all over again, just as every aspect of EU policy is based on double standards and breathtaking hypocrisy. In one glorious minute, Marcel explains everything that is wrong with the EU and what to do about it – vote against the EU. That means, vote FVD in the European elections on 6 June.

Prime Minister, Mark Rutte, said after he resigned – and decided to carry on as a caretaker – “You can’t get rid of me now”, which is a nice summary of the looking-glass world of EU democracy. Michael van der Galien of The Daily Standard explains the crazy machinations behind this surreal situation, the main one being that Mark Rutte is delaying the formation of a Dutch government until his appointment as Secretary-General of NATO is fully confirmed. If true, this is confirmation of the fact that the European political class puts globalist priorities before national ones.
