First City ever! in Europe with libertarian governing majority

From Eric Dondero:

For the first time ever, a libertarian party has secured a working majority in a city of the Netherlands. Dutch media services are reporting that Geert Wilders and his Party of Freedom (PVV), has won big in Almere; a planned city, only a few decades old. The population is 188,000. It is located in western Holland, south of Amsterdam.

The PVV is a pro-free enterprise, pro-free speech, pro-sexual freedom political party. The party fiercely opposes the institution of Sharia law in Dutch cities, increased immigration from Islamic nations, and government hand-outs to illegal immigrants squatting in Dutch cities.

The party grew out of the Pro-Dutch culture movement of the deceased gay libertarian activist, Parliament member, and presidential candidate Pym Fortuyn. He was assasinated two weeks before national elections in 2003, by a Muslim sympathizer on the streets of Amsterdam.

From Dutch News, Expatica.com:

The far-right Party for Freedom (PVV) of anti-Islam MP Geert Wilders came first in municipal elections in Almere, east of Amsterdam, with 21.6 percent of the vote, according to partial results released early Thursday.

Radio Netherlands - If they continue to do this well, "Wilders the next Prime Minister"

Final results are not yet in, but all indications are that the PVV will place second in the Netherland's second largest city, The Hague.

And the Dutch press is seeing this as a portend for upcoming national elections. From Radio Netherlands:

Far-right politician Geert Wilders has made major gains in local elections held in the Netherlands. Taking part in two cities it has become the largest party in Almere and the second largest in The Hague.

Mr Wilders was visibly buoyed by the results and was characteristically combative saying this was the first step in the upcoming campaign for parliamentary elections.

"The national campaign begins today in Almere and The Hague, tomorrow in all of the Netherlands… On 9 June, we'll conquer the Netherlands," said Mr Wilders

The Freedom Party has profited more than any other from the fall of the Dutch cabinet ten days ago. The party currently has 9 seats in parliament (out of 150).

If voters had elected a new parliament on Wednesday, the Freedom Party would have won between 24 and 27 seats. In one poll, it would be the largest single party. If his party does that well come June, Geert Wilders could become the next prime minister.
