NRC HANDELSBLAD: Geert Wilders' Party for Freedom (PVV) has registered to take part in the June 4 elections for the European Parliament, the party announced on Monday. The controversial Dutch politician will campaign under the motto "For the Netherlands". No names of candidates were released.
Wilders' national focus targets the financial contributions made by the Netherlands to the EU. "Those billions should go to Dutch citizens instead of farmers in Poland, France and Portugal," Wilders said in a statement. On his website he said he wants to get rid of the European Parliament and limit the power of the European Commission. >>> NRC Handelsblad’s News Staff | Tuesday, February 17, 2009
