BBB voters on their down-to-earth ‘cheerleader’

NOS News•today, 1:25 PM

The final week has arrived: this week the forming parties will make decisions and it will become clear whether or not they will enter a cabinet together. In the run-up to that moment, we will hear from voters from these four parties in the podcast. Previously, NSC voters spoke about Pieter Omtzigt and the difficult formation and PVV voters about whether Geert Wilders is not giving away too much. Today it’s the BBB’s turn.

The BBB is ‘the cheerleader’ of the new cabinet, according to political reporter Lars Geerts. The party seems to have the least doubts about the collaboration at the table, he says, but the BBB also faces substantive problems. How do you keep enough color in your cheeks, can the BBB keep its election promises and how do the voters themselves think things are going?
