Yes the Dutch always had the reputation of being super tolerant - although how much of that was due to Amsterdam. From what I'm reading there's a lot of disenchantment with the cost of living, rents and a housing crisis and the go to position is to blame the immigrant and the outsider rather than trying to tackle the excesses of capitalism.

Another Sunday, another European country veers far right - this time Portugal with the Chega party on 18% of the votes. The socialists will lose power and likely a centre right coalition will take hold with Chega potentially kingmakers. sad.gif

Looks like Modi is set to have his power and grip on India weakened considerably with his BJP underperforming in the Indian elections.

Honestly these elections haven't been on my radar because I assumed he was onto another landslide but this is promising that he and his Hindu nationalism will be ousted... eventually if not right now.
