For this purpose, relevant pieces G of Dutch parliamentary discourse are an issue on the table the an issue on analyzed in which politicians operate who lead a party that is often considered to be a one issue party, such as Geert Wilders (Party for Freedom) and Marianne Thieme (Party for the Animals). Making use of the pragma-dialectical concept of strategic maneuvering, the study shows that attempts to get a party’s priority issue on the table can generally be characterized as either a topic shifting maneuver or a polar- izing maneuver. More often than not, the presentational choices these politicians make are to be analyzed as coherent presentational tactics, which serve at the same time the politician’s aims of being effective and remaining within the institutionally determined requirements of reasonableness. The judgment that using party polit- a pragma-dialectical study of presentational choices ical strategies such as getting a priority issue on the table is by definition unreasonable is in confrontational strategic maneuvering not supported by this study. Only when the in Dutch parliamentary debate politician’s efforts frustrate the parliamentary process of resolving the differences of opinion at issue they do not comply with the reasonableness requirements. ...

Prinsjesdagpeiling 2017
Rapport PRINSJESDAGPEILING 2017 Forum voor Democratie wint terrein, PVV zakt iets terug 14 september 2017 www.ioresearch.nl I&O Research Prinsjesdagpeiling september 2017 Forum voor Democratie wint terrein, PVV zakt iets terug Als er vandaag verkiezingen voor de Tweede Kamer zouden worden gehouden, is de VVD opnieuw de grootste partij met 30 zetels. Opvallend is de verschuiving aan de rechterflank. De PVV verliest drie zetels ten opzichte van de peiling in juni en is daarmee terug op haar huidige zetelaantal (20). Forum voor Democratie stijgt, na de verdubbeling in juni, door tot 9 zetels nu. Verder zijn er geen opvallende verschuivingen in vergelijking met drie maanden geleden. Zes op de tien Nederlanders voor ruimere bevoegdheden inlichtingendiensten Begin september werd bekend dat een raadgevend referendum over de ‘aftapwet’ een stap dichterbij is gekomen. Met deze wet krijgen Nederlandse inlichtingendiensten meer mogelijkheden om gegevens van internet te verzamelen, bijvoorbeeld om terroristen op te sporen. Tegenstanders vrezen dat ook gegevens van onschuldige burgers worden verzameld en bewaard. Hoewel het dus nog niet zeker is of het referendum doorgaat, heeft I&O Research gepeild wat Nederlanders nu zouden stemmen. Van de kiezers die (waarschijnlijk) gaan stemmen, zijn zes op de tien vóór ruimere bevoegdheden van de inlichtingendiensten. Een kwart staat hier negatief tegenover. Een op de zes kiezers weet het nog niet. 65-plussers zijn het vaakst voorstander (71 procent), terwijl jongeren tot 34 jaar duidelijk verdeeld zijn. Kiezers van VVD, PVV en de christelijke partijen CU, SGP en CDA zijn in ruime meerderheid voorstander van de nieuwe wet. Degenen die bij de verkiezingen in maart op GroenLinks en Forum voor Democratie stemden, zijn per saldo tegen.

Marianne Thieme 6 E Partijcongres 1 Oktober 2006
Conceptspeech Marianne Thieme 6 e Partijcongres 1 oktober 2006 Partijgenoten! Heel hartelijk welkom op alweer het 6 e partijcongres van de Partij voor de Dieren. We verwachten dat dit het laatste congres zal zijn voorafgaand aan onze definitieve doorbraak! Ik ben heel blij dat u in groten getale bent gekomen om ons samen voor te bereiden op de wereldprimeur van de eerste Partij voor de Dieren ter wereld die in een Nationaal Parlement vertegenwoordigd zal zijn. Enkele maanden voor de Europese verkiezingen van 2004, om precies te zijn op 6 maart, werden we nauwelijks genoemd in de peilingen en hadden we nauwelijks verkiezingsbudget. Toch hadden we het rotsvaste vertrouwen dat veel mensen genoeg hadden van dit dieronvriendelijke Europa en alleen uit uit sympathie Partij voor de Dieren zouden kiezen. Die verwachting is uitgekomen. We scoorden bij die verkiezingen maar liefst 3,2% van de stemmen. In enkele steden zoals Amsterdam zelfs meer dan 6,5%! Natuurlijk is in de tussenliggende periode de belangstelling van de kiezers wat weggezakt. We hebben natuurlijk maar beperkt campagne kunnen voeren. Maar uit alles blijkt dat we die waakvlam weer heel snel op de hoogste stand zullen gaan krijgen. De aanmeldingen van nieuwe leden stromen binnen. De aandacht van de media begint nu al aan te zwellen mede dankzij onze bekende lijstduwers. Misschien heeft u gisteren de Volkskrant gezien met een paginagroot artikel over de partij en met een groot artikel op de voorpagina. We hebben een geoliede campagne-organisatie opgebouwd met een partijkantoor in Amsterdam, een binnenkort te openen Partij voor de Dieren winkel, ook in Amsterdam én een landelijk distributiecentrum op Landgoed Beverweerd bij Bunnik.

The World Factbook Europe :: Netherlands Introduction :: Netherlands Background: The Dutch United Provinces declared their independence from Spain in 1579; during the 17th century, they became a leading seafaring and commercial power, with settlements and colonies around the world. After a 20-year French occupation, a Kingdom of the Netherlands was formed in 1815. In 1830 Belgium seceded and formed a separate kingdom. The Netherlands remained neutral in World War I, but suffered invasion and occupation by Germany in World War II. A modern, industrialized nation, the Netherlands is also a large exporter of agricultural products. The country was a founding member of NATO and the EEC (now the EU) and participated in the introduction of the euro in 1999. In October 2010, the former Netherlands Antilles was dissolved and the three smallest islands - Bonaire, Sint Eustatius, and Saba - became special municipalities in the Netherlands administrative structure. The larger islands of Sint Maarten and Curacao joined the Netherlands and Aruba as constituent countries forming the Kingdom of the Netherlands.
