Simone Juffermans wrote that more than 50 Romanian labor migrants were allowed to stay in a vacation home, as their interests weighed more heavily according to the court, and due to their low income, they had difficulty finding other housing. She pointed out that the COA used multiple holiday parks for the accommodation of asylum seekers and their family members joining them. She also wrote that Wim, an 80-year-old who could not find affordable housing, was fined €10,000 because he lived in his chalet for part of the year. Juffermans expressed her dissatisfaction with the situation in the Netherlands. #huisvestingscrisis #arbeidsmigranten #asielzoekers (translated)

Symphony mocked Dilan Yesilgöz and wrote that she had officially declared Russia an enemy. According to unconfirmed reports in the mail, she had attempted to invade Russia with three VVD brochures, a bicycle pump, and an inflatable Leopard tank. Mark Rutte reportedly asked from Brussels if someone could remove her batteries, while Vladimir Putin, according to Symphony, sat under his desk in the Kremlin out of fear. The author compared Yesilgöz to Napoleon and Rambo and suggested that a press conference from her would even make peace doves ask for bulletproof vests. Symphony also contrasted the alleged ambition to conquer Moscow with what the author described as the VVD's inability to get the Netherlands in order. #DilanYesilgöz #politiek #VVD (translated)

Beach Roy wrote that the British population was pleading for a return to the EU at that time, while #Nexit was trending. He argued that a Nexit for the Netherlands as a trading nation would be even more disastrous than for the United Kingdom. According to Roy, one third of the national income comes from exports. He referred to economists from the University of Groningen, who, according to him, expected a total export decrease of approximately 45%, a 43.5% decrease in industrial exports, an 18% decrease in agricultural exports, and about a 2.4% lower national income in the event of a Nexit. He also predicted severe damage for Rotterdam and Schiphol. Furthermore, Roy wrote that converting euros to guilders would make everything more expensive. Banks and asset managers would lose the EU passport that allowed them to operate in the internal market from Amsterdam. According to him, part of those activities had already shifted to the continent after Brexit; a Nexit would reverse that trend. Roy also stated that working, studying, and living in other EU countries would become subject to permits and that the recognition of diplomas and professional qualifications would need to be re-established. He described this as only a part of the consequences and used derogatory terms for advocates of a Nexit. #Nexit #EU #Nederland (translated)

Jolande wrote that coalition parties, according to her, wanted elderly people who needed domestic help to live independently at home to pay for that help themselves. Single AOW recipients with a small pension could thus be paying up to 184 euros extra per month. She argued that cuts in elderly care kept people at home and that they now also had to pay for domestic help themselves. She sharply criticized Jetten, Bontenbal, and the VVD. https://t.co/mN9Fl6gj5W #Ouderenzorg #HuishoudelijkeHulp #AOW (translated)

Kirsten Verdel wrote that Trump called high prices a small price for the war with Iran.

Marianne Zwagerman wrote that Hugo de Jonge had ruined her business when he was the Minister of Health and later, as Minister of Housing, had again taken away a financial safety net with rental regulations. She said that entrepreneurs constantly had to adapt to changing government rules and stated that the government came up with new ways every day to take their money. Zwagerman described herself as someone who felt like she was being squeezed out by The Hague time and again. https://t.co/mB98wl1Nsu #ondernemen #beleid #overheid (translated)

CIDI wrote that Y., an Israeli residing in the Netherlands, had signed up for a Dutch course. According to CIDI, he was told during the intake that he had to acknowledge that genocide was being committed in Gaza. Y. was said to have responded that he did not consider that qualification as established and that potential war crimes should be investigated and prosecuted. CIDI stated that the teacher had rejected him because of his political beliefs and described the case as an example of what Israelis and Jews in the Netherlands experience. The organization said it would submit the case to the Netherlands Institute for Human Rights. #mensrechten #onderwijs #Israël (translated)

This is the last message about my step to leave the Netherlands. As of September 21, we will be living elsewhere and will have nothing more to do with #box3 from that date. As of October 1, my house/office has been sold (transfer) and I no longer own any real estate in the Netherlands. I feel liberated and freed 🎉 #verhuizing #vrijheid #nieuwbegin (translated)

We are indeed certain: tax increase on housing. Tax increase for entrepreneurs. Cancellation of the promised reduction in inheritance tax. They are completely unclear and there is no agreement on: reduction of government spending. Unfortunately indicative of the level of our governments at the moment. https://t.co/VBHJt7CCTS #belasting #overheid #ondernemen (translated)

Do you know what the dirtiest thing is right now? Our daughter has to live at home, and there is no living space anyway. She works, has graduated, and wants to save hard to be able to buy a house. That will never work if she has to pay taxes over her hard-earned money above €30,000. They put everything and everyone in a bind to keep financing their delusions and to impoverish the Dutch people. Exactly how they want it. Furthermore, we have to keep our mouths shut, let ourselves be hit in the face, and be taken from behind. Swallow lies and propaganda, and if you have doubts or critical questions, you get a file with the AIVD, which everyone already has (surveillance law and you are a suspect criminal if you spend more than €100). Roads, bridges, and dikes are about to collapse and (network) corruption is rampant... but they are going to impose extra taxes on savings the 🤬🤬🤬. Hoekstra will have secured the money of the members of parliament and ministers... #wooncrisis #belasting #Nederland (translated)
