What Geert Wilders’ victory means for Dutch society

… The tight-knit seaside suburb of Duindorp is Wilders heartland. Life is tough, people here tell me, and too expensive.

Outside the supermarket I met Janette, who didn’t give her surname, picking up some vegetables for dinner.

Her sons can’t afford to buy a home, she complains, and rent is making them broke: “But we give homes and benefits to people from elsewhere, we are happy to help them but we need to help our own people first. Old people are freezing at home because they can’t afford to turn on the heating.”

Essentially Geert is Hitler according to the BBC.
