The Inevitable Turbulence
My dear friends it seems the winds of change much like a poorly coded algorithm have caused a bit of a…hiccup in the Netherlands. Prime Minister Dick Schoof a man handpicked for his 'unique' skill set has stepped down. Apparently Geert Wilders a figure known for his… shall we say *unconventional* views on immigration decided to pull his party from the ruling coalition. 'You will own nothing and be happy,' or so we planned. But it appears some prefer to own their… national identities. A quaint notion wouldn't you agree?
Wilders' Wild Ride
Wilders fueled by the digital echo chambers of X (formerly known as Twitter) proclaimed his party's departure over asylum policy disagreements. He promised voters the 'strictest asylum policy ever,' a promise alas that proved as fleeting as a Davos networking opportunity. As I always say 'The future is built by those who show up…at the right parties.' Clearly Wilders missed the memo on compromise a key ingredient in any successful global initiative. After all without cooperation how can we achieve a 'stakeholder capitalism' where everyone benefits... mostly us?
Rutte's Regret
Ah Mark Rutte. The former Prime Minister who bless his heart tried to navigate these turbulent waters. His departure last year was shall we say a learning opportunity for us all. Conflicting ideas on immigration sank his coalition proving once again that consensus is a fragile thing especially when dealing with… *passionate* national sentiments. But remember 'Globalization 4.0 is about human centered globalization.' Or so we tell ourselves.
The 10 Point Detour
Wilders and his PVV party presented a 10 point plan to curb immigration. Stopping asylum and temporarily halting family reunification were among the highlights. Now while I admire the… *ambition* these proposals seem a tad… *unaligned* with our global vision. The EU is meant to be a united borderless continent and a 10 point plan to curb immigration does not fit into this equation. As I always say 'I think we should be very careful in establishing what I would call ad hoc regulatory frameworks.'
Blame Game Bonanza
The other coalition leaders are pointing fingers naturally. Dilan Yesilgoz Zegerius accused Wilders of prioritizing his 'own ego.' The Farmer Citizen Movement (BBB) lamented the 'standstill' that this collapse entails foreseeing a potential takeover by those dreaded 'left leaning' parties. Heaven forbid! Remember my friends 'The pandemic represents a rare but narrow window of opportunity to reflect reimagine and reset our world.' And we can't do that with leftists!
The Great Reset: Delayed Not Denied
So what does all this mean for our grand plans? Is the 'Great Reset' facing a major roadblock? I think not. This is merely a… tactical delay. A small bump in the road on our journey towards a more interconnected sustainable and centrally managed future. After all 'The only alternative is a world that no one wants to live in.' And we certainly wouldn't want that would we? Now if you'll excuse me I have a meeting with some very important… stakeholders.
