Poldercast: The Dutch Politics Podcast

Over the past weeks, the political crisis in the Netherlands has continued to get worse, and the ongoing storm of new incidents is making the path to forming a new government increasingly difficult. On this Poldercast, we take stock of the story so far, and try to look for ways out of this political no man’s land. Facebook @thepoldercast / instagram @thepoldercast / twitter @thepoldercast…

Poldercast: The Dutch Politics Podcast

After the negotiations to form a new government collapsed before they properly began, discussion mainly revolved around Mark Rutte and his future as the leader of the country. But the leaked memo also ignited a much broader debate on the relationship between parliament and government, and the extent to which the opposition can play its role as a check on the coalition. So on this week’s Poldercast, we take a break from those in government to look at those meant to control it, as we discuss dualism in Dutch Politics.

Pieter Omtzigt, Position Elsewhere. These four words, noted down in a leaked confidential memo, may very well bring an end to the political career of prime minister Mark Rutte. A relatively minor incident escalated and led the newly elected parliament to launch an attack on the norms and procedures of coalition-building and on the conduct of Mark Rutte himself. As the country picks up the pieces, The Poldercast examines how a straight-forward election instead turned into a debate on political culture in the Netherlands and a reckoning that may mean an end to Rutte’s decade in power.

On this episode of the Poldercast, we head out from the political centre in the west and into the rest of the country to look at the issues and dynamics that set the agenda in different regions of the Netherlands. Differences in demographics, cultural context and political representation mean that, even in a small country, what matters locally often ends up shaping the national debate.

In this episode we’ll discuss the legacy of the assassinated Dutch politician Pim Fortuyn, tracing his influence to two populist parties active today - Geert Wilders’ Freedom Party (PVV), and the Forum for Democracy led by Thierry Baudet.

The Netherlands is a famously secular country, and yet the last government consisted of not just one, but two Christian parties. The continued staying power of Christian parties in the fragmented political landscape begs the question: What role does Christianity still play in Dutch politics today? And how do these parties manage to punch above their weight to set the agenda? Facebook @thepoldercast / instagram @thepoldercast / twitter @thepoldercast…

Once a political powerhouse, the Dutch Labour party PVDA is losing voters to both left and right and is struggling to keep its status as a major political force on the left. Instead, 3 different flavours of left: socialist, labour and green are now fighting for dominance. This episode of the Poldercast will look for an explanation for the decline of the Dutch Labour Party and will discuss if merging is a viable option for the 3 left wing parties, who currently have a combined number of just 34 seats in the polls in the run-up to the parliamentary elections in the Netherlands.

Poldercast: The Dutch Politics Podcast

The Netherlands is often said to be a progressive bastion, where drugs are legal, ethical taboos are broken, and people are free to live their lives as they see fit – a true Liberal Paradise. But how true is this stereotype, and is the Netherlands at risk of losing its status as world-beating progressive beacon? This episode of the Poldercast will cast a critical eye on the Dutch cliché of a liberal paradise, and look at what the two main liberal parties – VVD and D66 – have in store for the election.
