Afshin Ellian asked what would happen if Islamic rules became visible in the police and the judiciary. He argued that guidelines could change under pressure from leftist and Islamic politicians, and that the VVD could permanently prevent this with strict legislation. Ellian wrote that neutrality and a neutral appearance of government bodies and their officials could be enshrined in an overarching law or in separate laws, such as the Police Act and the Judiciary Organization Act. He suggested that leftist and Islamist politicians would, in principle, never obtain a majority in both Houses to amend such a law. He also noted it was remarkable that the VVD had not proposed such legislation in recent decades. According to him, a robust law should guarantee the neutrality of the police, judiciary, and public prosecution, unlike a guideline. #neutraliteit #wetgeving #politiek (translated)
