Wilders calls for mass demonstration against cuts

Anti-immigration party PVV leader Geert Wilders on Monday called for a mass demonstration against the current government.

Wilders says it is time to demonstrate against the cuts being made to public spending by the coalition government of the Liberal VVD and Labour.

'People have had enough,' he told the press. 'They are furious with prime minister Mark Rutte and his Labour friends.'

Wilders is applying for a licence to hold a demonstration in front of parliament in The Hague on September 21.

Geert Wilders starts tweeting in English

Dear friends,

As a Dutch politician I regularly tweet. My Dutch twitter account @geertwilderspvv has over 220,000 followers – which is more than the account of the Dutch Prime Minister.

Many of my international friends have indicated that they, too, would be interested to read more about my views on contemporary events. This is why I have decided to open an English-language twitter account.

From now on, I will keep you informed via my twitter account @geertwilders_mp about my views on international politics and world events.

Let us keep in touch.

Best wishes,

Geert Wilders

Speech Geert Wilders at the Western Conservative Summit, Denver, 30 June 2012

Thank you, dear friends, ladies and gentlemen, for inviting me to the Western Conservative Summit. It is always a pleasure to come to America. I was here a few weeks ago to meet with my dear friend, congresswoman Michele Bachmann, to talk about Islam and the threat to America and Europe.

It is also a pleasure to be in Denver, the gateway to the West. This is America's conservative heartland where the spirit of the pioneers still lives.

Speech Geert Wilders in Berlin, 3 September 2011 (English version)

Thank you for inviting me to Berlin. It is an honour to be here in this beautiful city of Berlin. When I was here last year I emphasized how important Germany is for all of us. We all benefit from a healthy, democratic, self-confident Germany. 

Much has happened since my last visit. In the Netherlands we were able to achieve many amazing things. We have successfully started to roll back the process of Islamization in the Netherlands. 

We have done so in a peaceful way and through the democratic process. Recently, a deranged narcissistic psychopath from Norway committed a horrible crime. In cold blood he murdered nearly eighty innocent fellow citizens. The assassin pretended to be a concerned European. He said that he had committed his atrocity because “It is meaningless to participate in the democratic process.”
