“Alexander Pechtold, leader of the progressive-liberal D66 party, arrived at Monday morning’s coalition talks hand in hand with his party colleague Wouter Koolmees. ‘We think it is quite normal in the Netherlands to express who you are,’ said Pechtold.”
“Other politicians also took up sports journalist Barbara Berend’s suggestion for men to hold hands in public as a gesture of solidarity. Among them were Labour leader Lodewijk Asscher and caretaker finance minister Jeroen Dijsselbloem, who went for a walk together on Scheveningen beach.”
Reminds me of this…
About that attack:
Two men were set upon by a group of six to eight youths as they walked hand in hand through the streets of Arnhem in the early hours of Sunday. One of the victims lost four teeth and suffered a split lip when he was struck with a bolt cutter.
Four teenage boys, three aged 16 and a 14-year-old, handed themselves in to police on Monday morning. Another 14-year-old boy and a 20-year-old man had already been arrested.
One of the victims, Ronnie Sewratan-Vernes, 31, told NOS: ‘We don’t usually do that, holding hands in public, for the very reason that we don’t want to provoke people. But we’d had a nice evening, it was late and we thought we were alone.
‘And then suddenly there was a group of six to eight Moroccan youths. Before I knew it I was on the ground fighting with three men on top of me.’
The wages of ‘diversity’…

“Showing solidarity” like this is how a politician says he feels a twinge of empathy for the victims of his policies — but not enough to change the policies.
“I understand how hard it must be for you to accept the fact that I don’t care enough to stop doing this to you.”

Seriously, this is what dampens what little sympathy I still have for Western Europe. Even those Western Europeans who want to purge their contries of brown barbarism and its cult of Allah still feel compelled to substitute it with an embrace of Proggie toxins like homophilia. It’s as if they’re choosing cancer over the plague.
