Dutch Farmers and their supporters can claim a major victory in their fight against New World Order oppression. The recent tractor protests shook the political dynamic enough for a brand new, farm friendly, political movement to win “the most seats for a single party in the Dutch Senate.”
Farmers won’t be ignored
Farmers will no longer be sidelined in the Hague. Since they’re Dutch, they call their Farmer-Citizen Movement Party “BoerBurgerBeweging.” BBB is a lot easier to quote. No matter what you call it, the fledgling party is “seeking to push back on the government’s climate agenda.”
Fox News calls what happened Wednesday, March 15, “a stunning victory” because the BBB “won the most seats for a single party in the Dutch Senate.” Mark Rutte isn’t happy about that one bit. Neither is Klaus Schwab. This throws a big monkey wrench into their Agenda 2030 commitments.
“This isn’t normal, but actually it is! It’s all normal citizens who voted,” party leader Caroline van der Plas exclaimed. “Today people have shown they can’t stay at home any longer. We won’t be ignored anymore.” Farmers in the Netherlands are literally fighting for their lives and livelihoods. They grow a whole lot more than tulips. Enough to feed half of Europe.
Netherlands 🇳🇱
The Dutch farmers party #FarmerCitizenMovement (BBB) has become the largest force in the Dutch Parliament’s Senate chamber.

They do it really efficiently, too. Every acre of land being farmed produces maximal yield. That takes fertilizer. Since they also raise livestock, even more nitrogen and methane are produced. Instead of exploring ways to offset that in other sectors, the World Economic Forum declared war on agriculture. “Let them eat bugs,” they sneer in Brussels.
Fox adds that the BBB “built its victory on the back of protests against the government’s environmental policies, which aim to slash nitrogen emissions by dramatically cutting back on livestock numbers and buying out thousands of farms.” Since they aren’t as fair and balanced around there as they used to be, they had to tack on liberal talking points. “Nitrate and ammonia pollution significantly impacts biodiversity, particularly air and water quality.” Farmers say that’s what makes bacon so much tastier than crickets. With a red juicy tomato and some crisp green lettuce to go on that whole wheat bread, you have a really tasty and wholesome meal. Most Americans say that’s worth a little give and take on who emits how much of what and how hard to regulate who.
Dutch citizens agree with their farmers. They appear to have snagged a full 15 of the 75 Senate seats. That’s “more seats than Prime Minister Mark Rutte’s conservative VVD party.” The BBC took “almost 20% of the vote.” Rutte doesn’t have that much power on his own. The Prime Minister “built his victory on the back of a four-party coalition, which will now control 24 seats overall.”
Take citizens seriously
Disgruntled Farmers were forced to take their tractors out in mass protests and shut down half the country a few times but their persistence paid off. “Now is the time to take citizens seriously. I am open to talks with everybody. We are ready,” Ms. van der Plas challenged.
Another thing that the whole world noticed is that “around 57.5% of voters turned out for the election, marking the greatest turnout in years.”
Voters came out in record numbers to voice their pent up outrage, arguing that “the government’s approach does not support the farmers,” and is “not good” for them as it stands.
Mass protests have been happening all over the world as people take a stand against loss of freedoms and the cost of living crisis. People power in action. The Canadian truckers and Dutch farmers have shown what can happen when this is mobilised.

While the BBB managed to score a huge win for defenders of Dutch Agriculture, it was offset by another big winner. The “Greens and center-left Labor Party coalition, an environmentally-focused group that argued that climate problems will not just go away.” They’re tilted far left and between them also grabbed “15 seats, tying BBB.”
Just gaining a seat at the conference table is a huge win for farmers. Fox notes that these “results mainly indicate that Rutte’s remaining time in office may prove difficult as he faces a challenge to push through any legislation that needs Senate support.” Graciously, “Rutte congratulated BBB.” He also jibed that while van der Plas “looks like a big winner tonight, his coalition remains the majority power in the Senate.”
He also shrugged off the setback in a statement to the media. “I really think it’s elections for the provinces and water authorities. And of course also for the Senate, so in that sense, there is also something of national policy in it, but I would be careful about drawing very big conclusions from such a result.“
