The author addressed Stephan referencing Hamas and stated that the iftar would not be prohibited. According to the author, it was about the police no longer organizing religious celebrations, regardless of the religion, because the police must remain neutral. The author wrote that regulating loudspeakers, enforcing government neutrality, and stricter animal welfare laws were not Muslim harassment and had nothing to do with polls. Those measures, according to them, would protect the western democratic frameworks. The author believed that the law should apply equally to everyone and that the parties were rightly addressing the issue, albeit much too late. #religie #neutraliteit #wetsgeving (translated)

From pogo to popo, he wrote about the Netherlands-Serbia match that Fanatics Dutch at least made an effort, among other things by spending dozens of hours painting a banner. He thought that the repeated singing of "we are orange" could be too much, but said that spectators could better sing along than look around in surprise. He hoped that the KNVB would offer standing places at these kinds of matches for twenty euros, so that more football supporters would visit those sections and a stronger football atmosphere would arise. He also wrote that supporters would then be able to collect enough points to cross the North Sea in two years. #oranje #dutchtanatics #gewoonzelfjebekopendoen #oranje #voetbal #supporters (translated)

Marianne Zwagerman wrote that the VVD, after what she described as a disastrous budget debate, stood at twelve seats in the latest poll by Maurice de Hond. With that, according to her, the party of Dilan Yeşilgöz matched its low point from 2008. Zwagerman stated that the VVD had abandoned its principles in the debate. She also wrote that nearly seven out of ten voters expected, according to the poll, that new elections would not yield a stable government. In a broadcast of *Dwars door de Politiek*, Zwagerman and De Hond would discuss the political options available. Furthermore, she reported that complaints had been filed with the Advertising Code Commission regarding their radio commercials and that on October 16 the case of De Hond against Maarten Keulemans would be heard by the Press Council. On October 8, De Hond would have been an opinion pollster for fifty years. Zwagerman announced that the broadcast could be followed live on Sunday at 8:00 PM via YouTube, Facebook, X, and LinkedIn. https://t.co/NSPlGEhUuA #VVD #Politiek #Verkiezingen (translated)

Maurits Vande Reyde wrote that N-VA chairman Valerie Van Peel had made several statements about the Jinnih Beels decree in two minutes. According to him, she first said it had nothing to do with Beels and was necessary to prevent administrative ungovernability in the province, then denied that N-VA was involved, and later admitted that the approach "did not deserve a beauty prize." Vande Reyde called those statements contradictory and stated that N-VA's support in both the Flemish Parliament and the provincial council had been indispensable. He accused Vooruit, N-VA, and CD&V of getting rid of a female politician with a tailor-made law and wrote that this stirred anger among people because they feared becoming the next victims of political abuse of power. He also reminded that Van Peel had previously stepped away from politics because, according to her, she had had enough of political games. As a solution, Vande Reyde proposed to postpone the effective date of the decree until after the next provincial elections and to have the parties seek a solution among themselves. #Politiek #VlaamsePolitiek #Machtsmisbruik (translated)

Frank Peeters wrote that in the 1980s he was friends with a Hungarian and a Portuguese student at his school, who, according to him, spoke Dutch fluently after a few months. He also talked about an Iranian medical student who immediately took Dutch lessons and learned the language by translating texts from Persian via English. As a general practitioner with a diverse patient base, Peeters claimed to ask everyone to speak Dutch. He said he had no objection to diversity, but he did object to people who, in his opinion, did not speak Dutch after years in Belgium and mainly interacted with people from their country of origin. Peeters wrote that some called him extreme right because of his remarks on mass immigration, which he believed was made possible by the government. He said he sometimes felt like a stranger in his own country and felt that newcomers should adapt or leave. Finally, he asked if others shared that opinion. #Integratie #Diversiteit #Massaimmigratie (translated)
