For the 29 October 2025 Dutch general election, 27 electoral lists were successfully submitted, totaling 1,166 candidates.
And still not a single one I don't strongly disagree with on anything...

@NerdyPotato That's political consensus . . value it dearly 👍
@SunshineGirl Well, you are not completely correct. Too many one issue parties, and behaviour like ,I don't want to play with you in the sandpit childishness. Some parties are blocking others beforehand, because of that. So you have to vote strategicly, in stead of your choice. And don't laugh, there is even an animals party, to protect all animals.
@Thewhazzupdude a lot of claims about one issue parties are only based on the name though. For example, the animal party fights for both animal and human rights, with strong opinions on human healthcare, housing and climate too.
@NerdyPotato you are correct about that, but PVV, FVD, and JA21, are very straightforward in only bashing immigrants

@Thewhazzupdude One of the disadvantages of proportional representation.
@Thewhazzupdude well, not really either. They also want to get rid of "the gay agenda" (whatever that's supposed to be), stop investing in anything green, make protesting illegal, etc. Only horrible things, and bashing asylum seekers certainly seems their top priority, but it's still not the only (non-)issue they focus on.
