Our PM #DickSchoof wasn't 'independent' but a Wilders-footman, who took the job, knowingly and willfully, to become PM of the most racist and extreme right government in the Netherlands. He is a spineless coward, a liar and a disgrace, who also sucked up to Trump and defends Israel, despite bragging about the sanctions he imposed. He made the Netherlands complicit in genocide. We're looking forward to the day he finally fucks off.
