This is a major win for sanity and a loss for populism. Lets hope we are a guide to the rest of Europe.
In a setback for Dutch firebrand Geert Wilders, and perhaps the entire European populist movement, the first Dutch exit polls from today's general election which resulted in a record 82% turnout, are out and his PVV, or Freedom Party, has only won 19 seats, tied with the Christian Democrats and Democrats 66 party, both of which also got 19 seats; the outcome is in line with polls that were predicting a sharp drop off in support for Wilders in recent days. The result will likely be a disappointment for Wilder whose Freedom Party took 24 seats in 2010. As for the winner: prime minister Mark Rutte's VVD, or Liberal Party, with 31 seats.

It's not about that what i'm talking about. I'm talking about the integration that has failed with those type of people. I have an immigrant background. But it's people like them who give all the immigrants a bad name. And the VVD just wants to let more in like that stupid %€#@$ Merkel. It's political parties like that who are gonne be everybody's downfall. To bad you all got your head up your arses to see that
